Thanks

If you go to the "What's New section" and go to
Exclusives, its there with the new Legend Hot Rod.

My wallet is definitely going to feel lighter very shortly...

Wow :shock:

That does look good. Upon seeing this, I'm beginning to think that there really might be some hope for Lego. All they need to do now is to expand great designs like this to other themes.

There are only going to be 10,000 available through shop@home, and only 14,000 made total. So don't delay.

Here's a link to it on the shop@home site:

I think it is the light blue from the car in the Privet drive set. I've not seen it in any other set. I also think this is the last time we will see it. Jake said in his post on lugnet (referenced in my first post) that they used the last of that color, and that is why they only made such a small number of this set.

Looks like a good quality set, especially in light of recent releases. Doubt I'll buy one however: life's getting expensive, and what I spend on Lego I want to try and keep geared towards Castle. :?

Looks great! I sure wish TLC would come out with a Castle set of the same quality.

Maybe Lego isn't as dead as we thought. This is a really nice set. Bit expensive for me though.
I build, therefore I am.

I believe these finally got sold out from North American Shop@Home.

For a few days, even a week, it was saying backorders availale for the set... now it says "Not Available".

The good news is Lego is planning on releasing the same design in a new color-scheme... brown and either dark green or dark blue.

I have 4. I opened up and put together one. I loved putting it together and I loved the Maersk Blue. I highly
doubt Maersk Blue is going to be used again, ever.
(as they used up all their pallets of maersk blue abs)

Just thought I'd post that...

Hey,

Did you guys see this Lugnet post from Robin Werner:

who built a minifig-scale version. It's pretty cool.

My shipment is scheduled to arrive today :D Needless to say I am quite excited that more of the original maersk versions were found in the US. Get them before they are gone!
