LEGO

[Stompy]

Just went to the site and walked through the very clever web app that showed me all the possible pieces in the set, and was done in about 30 seconds. A minute later, I got a request for feedback email, to which I gave a glowing review. The process was awesome! They said I'd have the part in 3 weeks.

I've had to send out for two replacement parts and got nothing but top notch service. Got the parts within 10 days. First Class customer service.


Nice to see Lego fans here.

I'm a bit sad that Exo-Force has finished. I really thought they were heading towards transforming mechs, since the most recent ones hinted at it. I really loved Exo Force and was the sole reason I got right back into Lego again. I tend to collect the Lego trucks, so I'm really keen for that Agents Truck/base thing.

Oh and jaydisc, I too swear that I saw the new Death Star playset going for $399 before. $629 is just ridiculous. Knowing it's really just a $300-$400 set with the SW license/brand bumping up the price.

EDIT: That new Death Star is up to A$629. I swear it started at $399. I wish I had pre-ordered now.

Yes, that was correct. It was $399 due to Lego's "mistake". Had 2 friends who wanted to buy this but they've both changed their minds since the price "corrected".

Just some question guys,
A) Are the market place and green grocer sets only for online store order? Coz that's what they said with the Cafe corner and Ive spotted 1 or two but stupid me didnt put on layby?

B) I havent ordered anything from the online store but if any of you guys have, is it "okay" so to speak, reliable, fast and nothing to worry about,

C) Plus are those prices in AU$ or US$?

Agents is also a line I am looking forward to. Regarding Exo-Force, my feelings about it are mixed. They had some good sets (e.g. Aero Booster), but their mechs were often a bit too simple (not enough articulation), and the hairpieces on the minifigs were way too loose ... always kept falling off.

Poop! I might write them. Did your friend write?

My goal is to eventually make my own mechs (TFs), so I plan to get as much Exo and Bionicle for raw materials as possible. So, Exo is EOL? (end of life)

I have a similar-hairpiece problem on my SW AT-AT Stormtroopers. The helmets are quite loose.

A. I think it depends on retailer. Toyworld will usually get in things that other stores don't like the current skull raiders thing. Looks like a European box it's in.

C. Should be irrelevant with the exchange rate, but yea, should be AUD. Should have a little aud infront of the price.

Oh yea, http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=8294 Freaking sweet.

Has anyone here actually ordered from Lego.com? My order has just shipped (I placed it last Saturday) but I'm curious to know whether it ships from Lego Australia's warehouse or from overseas. It states delivery takes 18 days on the site - so does that mean 18 days from the order being placed or from when it ships? Because if its shipped from Lego Australia's warehouse, chances are I should get it Monday (Lego's warehouse is in Lane Cove, NSW). Any help?

Back in my SW Lego Days, I ordered plenty of times from Lego.com.
They all ship from Denmark & the packaging is usually massive...

Cos it's been years since then, I honestly can't remember how long it took for Lego to reach me

My friends were gonna get me to order for them from Lego.com since Lego.com doesn't ship to their country. I don't think they'll be writing. :/

Regarding Lego.com, so far I've only pre-ordered one set from them (the giant castle chess set, $299 with free early bird shipping). It won't ship until September. It was what I got my Bopo card for...
