5150 Lego Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Really ?? Is that Cafe set released that early ? Wow, something to look for soon I hope ;-) And topic pinned !! It really deserved that treatment :-P *yoda* I called 4 califorina based Lego stores, but only one admitted to a March 10th release. The other said they have heard of it but don't know when it will be out. I was going to haveone put on hold, but they said they can't do that till the set is officially on there shelf. I'll give them a call back on saturday. Quote

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 It might come on March 10t? That means it will S@H soon! -ZotS Quote
dunamis Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 My local store said they would have it on the 10th. This is unusual since the told me they only get shipments on Mondays. I guess they are getting a special delivery for this set. I am planning on going in and buying one if they actually do get it. I'll take some quick photos of the box and manual to hold you guys over until I can build it and do a proper review. Quote

That would be much appreciated ;-) Maybe the book holds pics of future sets like that one and maybe the Eiffel Tower 8- Quote

oo7 Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Wow, Dunamis! I shall eagerly await the posting of your photographs (that is if the telephone answerer was truthful in his [her] words). I personally would be sitting in front of my local Lego store at 8:00 in the morning tomorrow to watch them unlock the door, if I currently had a spare $140. :-D Maybe the book holds pics of future sets like that one and maybe the Eiffel Tower 8- Quote
alex54 Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 No problem. Just remember, I'm the slowest builder there is so don't expect the full review right away. Based on the number of pieces, I'd guess this is a 8-10 hour build for me so it will probably be mid week before I can get it done (stupid job gets in the way of LEGO). I will post photos right away of the box and manual and photos during the build so we can all have a good discussion about it.I'm excited about it. I think it is an amazing model. Just send your CC set, I'm faster than you to build :-D ! Can't wait to see more pics... Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 9, 2007 Posted March 9, 2007 Whopee! I would liek to see some pictures when you do get it. -ZotS Quote

Hobbes Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 why isn't there any pictures? What do you want?!? There's pics on our front page! TLC took the pictures off their server when they were leaked this week, they'll put them up again eventually. And don't get your hopes too high, it'll be the same two pictures we (this includes you) already know. Now stop being annoying >:-( Quote

oo7 Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 You could have done that yourself just to find that the only pictures are the two old ones, no? And it is available in America for 140 USD. Quote
dr01d3k4 Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 And it is available in America for 140 USD. it wasn't when i looked, this morning Quote
dunamis Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 it wasn't when i looked, this morning It is available on S@H in USA now. Cost is $140. I called my local LEGO store and they said it would not be in until Tuesday :-( . However, I really think they mean Monday as that is when they get all their shipments. I'll call them back later today just to be sure... Quote

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 13, 2007 Posted March 13, 2007 Cool! I need a review from one of out members... -ZotS Quote
5150 Lego Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 Ok So i'm kinda ticked off. I went down to my local lego store (a 1 hour drive *sing* ) to pick up Cafe' Corner. I called ahead of time to confirm it was there. The employee said that recieved 24 in so i didn't bother putting one on hold. I get there, and it turns out they never recieved it. I asked for the manager since i was a bit upset for driving an hour to pick up a set i was told was in stock. The manager found the employee i talked to and it turns out that he was looking at the order slip for the sets that they will be recieving in the next week or so, and not the in stock info. The manager was preety cool and said that he could order it from lego.com, give it to me at a discount and even ship it to me free of charge! :'-) So thats the good news. The bad of course, is that i'll have to wait at least another week as it is only ground shipping. Oh well. At least i know the customer service is there. :-) Quote
dunamis Posted March 14, 2007 Posted March 14, 2007 That is a bummer 5150. I had called my store and they said they were getting 24 in. I asked them to hold one for me. When I got there, they said they only received 6 of the 24 and 4 of them had already sold. They said they had a lot of people calling for it and it seemed to be a popular set already... Quote
