Artifex Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 So I came back to Brazil last september, after living in London for most of the year. I came out of my Dark Age there, but I sort of faced a post-London depression and semi-Dark Age when I got back here. But those days are gone, and I've been looking for Lego/Kingdoms wherever I go in different cities all over the state. Thing is - there are no Kingdoms sets anywhere! The most I could get was an Outpost Attack and a Jester impulse, because all Dragon Knight Wizards (as well as everything else) was gone - from one day to the next in the very same (big) toy shop (in a big city). Asking around, people say that the Christmas and post-Christmas Lego/Kingdoms sales were just great, and everything sold out. I have to say I'm quite impressed, because Lego is just TOO expensive here in Brazil (about three times as much in USD - no kidding). Is it the same where you live? Has Kingdoms sold out for good? I know the stores around here are getting more Kingdoms sets in early March, but for February they are just gone. I'm happy that Lego is selling so well down here, even for unfair prices as we have in Brazil. But I've been wondering if Lego is selling that well in other places too. Can you please brief me up?

KristofBD Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Here in Nijmegen (the Netherlands), some Kingdoms sets are virtually sold out (King's castle and the impulses), while others are still available. Nevertheless, it is good to hear that this is a popular line in Brazil. I hope it is as popular elsewhere! (means higher chance of more sets in this great line!) Quote
Neoriceisgood Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Here in Leeuwarden (Also the Netherlands) there seem to be quite a few around, most stores I've seen have at least the mid-sized sets (outpost attack, the catapult, horse carriage etc) and with one exception all of them have the Dragon tower. The only one that seems to be available at only one store is the Castle & I've only seen the impulse sets in two places. Quote
Niku Posted February 19, 2011 Posted February 19, 2011 Here in Guatemala cant find anywhere any sets, fortunately i got mine on last year and on a trip to Mexico Hopefully they will bring it this year, althought is as expensive as in Brazil. Quote
Juppy Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 Still found everywhere here in Singapore =/ TLG should really lower the prices in our region to promote better sales. Most of my LEGO sets were obtained via shipping instead. Quote
Sirens-of-Titan Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 I live in Western New York and in this area the big sets are still around, but in sparse numbers awhile the impulses (especially the wizard) are gone. It's interesting that this will be a year without a new major set with knights; it seems we've had one of those every year now, be it castle, outpost etc. I guess the new dragon prison comes closest.

Tabris Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) Last weekend I saw most of Kingdom sets in my local TRU. But that was in Spain, which is a bit far away from Brazil. You might be able to find some of them in TLG official site. Edited February 21, 2011 by Tabris Quote
eldiano Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Here in Georgia I found a Lego Outlet store that has like 10 of each Kingdoms set, everyone in existence at cheap prices. They also had hard to find keychains! Quote
DaleDVM Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Here in the Chicago area in the USA the 4 local LEGO stores have all of the $10 USD and larger sets. The impulses were not on the shelves at all. I also saw battle packs on the shelves as well. I do think the King's Castle is going to be around for another year filling in that large $100.00 USD slot for Kingdom's. It will also balance out the large number of Dragon Knights in this years sets. Edited February 22, 2011 by DaleDVM Quote
