legotechnicblue Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 If I get the set, I will enjoy it and will play around with it. Quote
pint14 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 First 100 competitirs will get 41999 in august or later? Quote
Edwin Korstanje Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I think that we can't spaculate with it, to make as many profit for the free one Quote
rm8 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 First 100 competitirs will get 41999 in august or later? They will get them after sales, if there will be remanig sets. :) Quote
FuzzyBallz Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Still don't know if I made the right decision or not today. I had the 9398 stashed in my closet for the 9 months, and when I saw the new limited edition, I was very tempted to get it, but don't want to drop another $200 on a "duplicate" model. So I did what anybody with post purchase regret would do, I returned it. Had to pay $50 for shipping though because the box is huge, despite it being only under 10 lbs. If it were smaller, I could've fit it in a flat rate USPS box, but this thing is a monster! Now I got my fingers crossed that I can get my hands on the 41999. I'm gonna F5 the hell outta the S@H US site starting at 9PM PST time on Wednesday! It's madness! Quote
efferman Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 They will get them after sales, if there will be remanig sets. :) are you serious? we have to wait till someone says? ok, we stop the selling, no one want one. now the top hundred can get their copy. sold out, no one for the top hundred is available.

I was planning on getting the 9398 because I got $150 worth of toysrus gift cards but now I think I will buy the 41999 and then the 42000 with the gift cards. Quote

dragofoscar Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 http://shop.lego.com...e-Edition-41999 Isnt it glorious! Finally it is listed. 1 Day to go. But why only in the US store. When will it come to europe, e.g Germany ... By the way - first post from a (up to this day) silent reader ;) Quote
zux Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 I wonder why it is listed on US S@H only at this moment. I had a look on German, UK, Danish S@H - to trace of this set. By the way - first post from a (up to this day) silent reader ;) Someday all of us move from read-only to proper EB member Quote
legotechnicblue Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 It's times like these you wish there wasn't a 31st in July! Quote
peter_m Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 I wonder why it is listed on US S@H only at this moment. I had a look on German, UK, Danish S@H - to trace of this set. I guess there will be no equality of regions for this one :/ Quote
legomaniac83 Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 (edited) I picked up 2 today in a Lego store. I would Call ahead to your closest store to see if they have them. I was lucky. They are limited to 2 per customer. Good luck! Also got 2 BTTF sets as well. Edited July 31, 2013 by legomaniac83 Quote
legotechnicblue Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am really quite shocked they already have them in stores. I thought they would sell them online and then whatever is left, they will sell in stores. Quote
Gene Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am really quite shocked they already have them in stores. I thought they would sell them online and then whatever is left, they will sell in stores. The production was completed and packed for shipment to various countries weeks ago. So I think 20,000 sets are not totally available on-line. Try your luck with few exclusive retailers within your country. Better call and check or regret later... Quote

Ya it would be a good idea to call ahead of time. Quote
legolijntje Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I'm starting to worry now, they're not yet listed on the Dutch S@H Quote
Krize Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 My local store has already 5 sets in stock. I talked to a few person whether they could sell me one a little bit earlier... but no. They are not allowed to sell them until tomorrow. BTW, three good facts: 1: They told me that they try to save a few sets for the upcoming AFOL shopping. 2: Further he told me that he thinks the store would probably get around 15 sets in total. 3: The price: 179.99€!

FuzzyBallz Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 If everything goes as planned, I'll be placing an order for the 41999 and a 8879 IR Remote Control tomorrow night. Then I'll order the 42009 next month, and the 42008 the month after. My plan is 1 LEGO Technic set maximum a month moving forward. I don't have unlimited space to store unopened LEGO sets you know. :D Quote
peter_m Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I have contacted Lego Support and the lady told me that the set is not listed yet for my region (Poland) but it should be there at midnight 1st of August. Quote
piterx Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 i hope so! otherwise im not gonna get this set in time and i'll be forced to spend 200€ in alchool, food and stupid things Quote
Gene Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I wish everyone best of luck to secure this set! Quote
