weavil Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 I either missed it or got no answer. The S@H site says available in every region but CAN and US. I will be able to buy a couple of the first half sets soon (getting some money soon). So do I wait till in America or pay crazy shipping? Quote
DrJB Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) I did place my order on the German S@H ... Went through the checkout process, they took my credit card info, but never heard from them. Apparently, local/country specific sites ship only to that specific country. I'm heading to Europe in few weeks and tempted to get them, but prices there are 'always' higher than in the US ... Or at least, it was the case on my prior trips. Edited April 4, 2014 by DrJB Quote
Dooftastic Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Do we know if they are going to release 1H and 2H sets simultaneously in the US in August? Quote
weavil Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 Thats one thing I was thinking... or... 1H becomes 2h... 2h becomes 1h/1Q 2015. So should I buy two 42009 or one 42009 and some stuff off of BL, sence I might not be able to buy any 2014 models? Quote
jadedomg Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 August 2014. The retailer catalog for north america only had technic in August. Quote
DrJB Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 where can one find such retailer catalog? available online? Quote
Fritzy Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) I believe they are referring to this press guide that has made the rounds: http://www.jeditemplearchives.com/swexperience/new-york-toy-fair-2014/PR_Catalog_2014_FullBook_LoRes.pdf Edited April 4, 2014 by Fritzy Quote
DrJB Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Thank you for sharing ... On page 13, the slide now comes in yellow. I had bought few of them (in pink) for a GBC, but the color did not go well with everything else ... Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 The Container Truck is missing from that catalog - does that mean it won't be making the trip over? I built one already since I had most of the parts and only needed the new pieces but I think it's a shame if true since it is a nice model. Quote
DrJB Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 good catch ... well ... none of the mindstorms are listed either. Quote
JGW3000 Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 (edited) Holy BatS&@!, $250.00 for the 42030 However nice that set is going to be, it will be hard to justify the spending that much for it. I can see doing $139.99 for the 42025 Cargo plane, however. Edited April 4, 2014 by JGW3000 Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Surely that is supposed to be $219 US and $249 CAN as that is the only model where the two prices don't differ. Quote

Technic Gearhead Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Hope you are correct, but I feel for our Canadian, European, and other non-US friends. Canada maybe, but I don't feel for the rest of the world since they're currently enjoying 1H2014 Technic sets! Quote
