Professor Trelawney Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 I hope there's more Indy sets! As long as they make new movies to go with them! Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Yes, last week I bought Ambush in Cairo in my local Toys R Us! I saw also the Venice Chase but was not in my plans, now I want it Thanks for your response! Do you know if your Toys 'R' Us had gotten more copies of Ambush in Cairo recently, as mine did, or were those the same copies lingering on the shelves since the set was still active? Hope to see more sets, The Last Crusade tank will be great! and the temple of the grail with the old knight and the traps could be the best set Both the tank and the Grail Temple are particularly wanted sets for many fans. I do hope they resume the line and produce sets based on both... Quote
Raphy Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 I think a return of the Indy line would be awesome. I just wonder about the probability of it doing so.... :/ Quote
Snowspeeder Pilot Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Hello Blondie-Wan, Ambush in Cairo was added to the shelves last week. Best Regards. Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Thanks for the response! Interesting that it's not just mine (and nice, since it suggests plenty of people now have another opportunity to get this set). I wonder whether they simply found some additional stock of it in a warehouse somewhere, or what. That might explain why they're now carrying it for $9.99 (a full dollar below its official MSRP of $10.99, and five dollars below what TRU originally carried it for with their usual markup). Quote
TeufelHund Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Shame that the theme looks unlikely to continue - I was kind of hoping for an "Opening the Ark" set myself with Toht and Belloq in ceremonial costume minifigs. The submarine base would also be cool, as would the tank chase from The Last Crusade. Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I've noticed my local TRU has gotten some more copies of Ambush in Cairo in at some point in the last week or two. Is there just a lot of stock left for this set sitting around in a warehouse somewhere? Why is TRU receiving more stock? Also, I was out of town last weekend and visited another TRU I hadn't seen before, and they still had not only Ambush in Cairo but also The Temple of Doom. Unfortunately I didn't think to ask someone there if it was more stock they'd put on the shelf just recently, or was instead just old stock that had been on the shelf for several months. Can anyone else here say whether their local TRUs have put any more Indiana Jones sets on their shelves recently? I'm starting to wonder whether TRU advance-ordered a bunch of Indy sets for this year, and they're getting fresh supply even though TLG no longer offers it, or what... Quote
lightningtiger Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 All I can say in Oz, that if you find Indy sets they are at a higher price as they are imported and the only place in Oz that has a fair range is Toy Corner. Though Ambush In Cairo is now over 30 bucks ! Keep on wishing ! Quote
