TheOneVeyronian Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 I got the info from my local toystore, that the three "Summer 2015" sets won't ne released in Germany and the Rest of Europe: cancelled because of missing sales. Greetings. Hendrik Oh, really? That's disappointing. How do you know if that's the case for the whole of Europe, or is that just an assumption since you were told they're cancelled in Germany? Would a German toystore actually know if they were cancelled outside of Germany? Sorry, I do trust what you're saying, but I just wanted to check I'm hoping they haven't been cancelled in the UK too (we are technically in Europe though so I don't hold much hope). I don't want to have to resort to expensive importing from the US so I can get my robo-shark and lightning helmet villain I might have to ask my local LEGO Store when I next go there in about a week, see if they're still coming here or not.

Having said that, I don't usually see that many UA sets on the shelves compared to other themes, so I guess it's possible for sales to be not too good, but definitely not that bad for the sets not to be released either.

TAFOL Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 I also read, back in March, that LoC-sets 70225, 70226 and 70227 were going to be cancelled in Holland. Still they've turned up on S@H at the beginning of this month. I'm just saying that if you got any cancellation info from your local toy shop, it doesn't mean that the sets won't be on S@H. Quote

Greetings. Hendrik If that's true, I'll probably need 100 Euro more than planned, so I can buy them on ebay. Not too terrable. As long as they aren't cancled Worldwide.... Quote
8BrickMario Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) The S@H images are up on Brickset! Unfortunately, the electric guy is the only closeup. But he looks good! The boat looks fantastic! I love the garage doors over the multi-stud-shooters on the front. Edited May 14, 2015 by 8BrickMario Quote
DraikNova Posted May 14, 2015 Posted May 14, 2015 The use of translucent shields as displays is just glorious. I'm so sad that I won't be able to get it. It looks so awesome. Quote
Demetreous Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I really, really hope that ship is released. I just have to have it. They hardly design ships like that anymore… They usually just stack a bunch of bricks on a solid hull piece. Quote

They hardly design ships like that anymore… They usually just stack a bunch of bricks on a solid hull piece. They'll be out in the US this June. These aren't what sets could be released, these are official images of product that will be released later this year. Quote
8BrickMario Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 They've been rumored to not be sold in Europe. Sort of like how the U.S. didn't get the Fire/Ice Chima Ultrabuilds. But they should be in the U.S. Quote
DraikNova Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I honestly doubt they won't be sold in Europe. Ninjago has been one of LEGO's most succesful lines, even here, where there's no TV show. Most of the kids I see at stores are clustered around Star Wars and Ninjago, which only serves to confirm what I've heard. And anyway, why would Brittain have gotten an earlier release if Ninjago doesn't sell well? Quote
BrickBuilder3213 Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I swear, if the UK doesn't get these... Quote

TheOneVeyronian Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Well, it appears to be all rumours at the moment about Ultra Agents not being available in Europe. I guess we'll know once and for all on 1st June, but I am so hoping that the sets will be available in the UK. I'd even settle for them to be available in August instead, or for all the new parts in these sets to be available via Bricks and Pieces here (and no funny business labelling them as out of stock when they aren't either - like they did with the Chima harnesses...). For the latter, I did hear of people in the US being able to order parts exclusive to the CHima Fire/Ice sets, so the expectation isn't too far fetched. Well, one can hope - like many others here, I also want my robo-shark! Edited May 15, 2015 by TheOneVeyronian Quote
DraikNova Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 Dammit. I could have sworn I had the Ninjago topic open. Quote
legofanatic12 Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) I just built my Invizable Gold Getaway set today. The safe and Invizable's bike are the easiest, but Agent Steve Zeal's hover cycle takes some time to finish. No idea about the 70173 one. UPDATED: The electric villain in 70173 is Electrolyzer. He is an electrician who was transformed into a villain by AntiMatter. Edited May 16, 2015 by legofanatic12 Quote

8BrickMario Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I like the name of the electric villain. Now to find the shark-guy's name. Quote
Drucker Posted May 16, 2015 Posted May 16, 2015 I like the name of the electric villain. Now to find the shark-guy's name. His name is SharX. Another thing I found on Deviantart. :D Quote
PenPlays Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Whoops! Ignore. Edited May 17, 2015 by Penkid11 Quote
Kalhiki Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Well, it looks like some areas in the US have broken street date (mostly TRU). I was just at TRU yesterday, and found nothing. But I'll be in that area again on Tuesday, so I may swing by and check. Quote
legofanatic12 Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 Electrolyzer looks like is a fusion between Electro and Green Goblin. And also SharX is pretty neat. Quote
8BrickMario Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 I only wish Electolzyer were in a cheaper set, since I'd want multiples of that ghoulish head. SharX is underwhelming to me. I think he, Psyclone, Drillex, and Tremor aren't as visually appealing to me. Maybe it's the duller colors. I wonder why Terabyte doesn't have his helmet. Doesn't LEGO usually jump at the chance to use a mold in multiple sets? Quote
DraikNova Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 See, that´s what Bricks and Pieces is perfect for. Minifigure heads are the one kind of part they seem to reliably have. Quote
