    So the Harry Potter Hogwarts express was meant to be a TrU exclusive... so now will be delayed. We might see it in places like Toyworld and online, but I am doubtful they'll have enough stock for demand from the HP fans as well as the Lego trains fans.

    It's to only set I really wanted from the line, although the Quidditch and Hall sets may have tempted me at a Big W or Kmart price.

    $140 seems ridiculous when compared to the US$ price and it'd mean the purchase of another set to make it worthwhile from the Lego online store, their prices are the worst and their shipping excessive, so it's only worth it if you spend $200.

    Ugh, I was wondering why I haven't seen it anywhere else - all the other sets have started showing up at Kmart.

    What a disappointment, it looks amazing! And always a win when a purchase crosses over two collections (trains and 'licensed')...

    Harry Potter CMF series are now in Coles for $5.50....

    I grabbed a half dozen and thankfully got no doubles but with 22 to collect and so many difficult to feel for pieces it’s going to be tough to get them all, on top of the fact that they’ll fly off the shelves.

    Found a unmolested box at Target today. Was only trying to get a couple as I’m not interested in the theme but liked them for parts. 20 minutes later, I had 10 in my hand. Very hard to feel for this series.

    I was told today at Toyworld Success in Perth that Toyworld is now going to have the HP trainset since TRU is now closed but he doesnt know when that will be available.

    Last mention I heard was November. The few hobby stores I have seen mention it already have already presold out their allocation at the same price as the LEGO shop.
