The helmet still looks a little like a wig, though not nearly so much as I feared. I think however that it would be better if it was reserved for the troll commanders as opposed to the standard rank-and-file units.

Looks like a helmet that they can cross over into a space theme. Very fantasy, and not their best effort. :?

That new helmet is great! I think there's a new goblin torso, too!

I really like the style of the new helmet; although, I would prefer it in black - possibly down the road.

It appears as though this isn't the case, well...if all of these: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=282083 sets are real.
(Note: this isn't my gallery.)

that guy just collects other people's images and puts them in a gallery. That doesn't say the images aren't real though.

most interesting are of course the knight and the magician...

are these minifig packs? If so, this will be a great day for army builders...

:idea:
I have an important question regarding the price of these impulse sets!
:idea:

I'm an army builder, and plan to buy lots of these sets, especially 5615!

And i just wanted to know how much these sets cost (with tax) in diffrent countries.

I know that in Germany it cost: EUR 2,99
And in Korea it cost: (with tax) Won 2.40

But what is the price (with tax) in the US., Canada, and the UK.???

Please, please help me with this, because i want se where the best value is!

(What I'm looking for is the best retail price, not the inflated Lego.com price or the Toys 'R' Us price that is always a dollar or two more!)

The recommended retail price for the impulse sets in the UK is £2.49 (including VAT). I doubt you'll find them for less in the UK except possibly on Ebay.co.uk or Bricklink.

Retail price in the US is $3.49.

I've not heard of the set being anywhere but LEGO stores, S@H and maybe TRU. That doesn't mean they won't be, but I doubt you'd find them cheaper anywhere that isn't having a sale, at least in the US.

A steep $4.99 here in Canada.

:D Thanks guys, that's a great break-down, but i'm sure once a Buy-One-get-One sale comes on, or a special Target discount appears it'll be more cost effective!

So where are these sets availible now? Seems like lego has these for sale quite far flung. I keep hoping to see them for sale locally but the stores around here seem to stock mostly out of date stuff. I think I will likely just do some more lego orders online.

Sorry my Canadian friends about the prices you get but we get the same if not worse here so you are not alone. :D

In dreamland stores in Belgium, Impulse sets are priced 2.86 or 2.89 euros. (I don't remember)

Interesting helmet...

The only places I've seen Castle 07 and 08 on sale in the UK are 3 sets at Argos. Everything else I've had to get from S@H.
