NOOOOO! I wish they were coming out later... I could have got the castle for my B-day. I'm gonna have to order it very, very early. They are neat though. I'm gonna have to buy them.

With the new city sets released here but not the castle sets they are really just taunting me...
It's sort of ironic. Here in the US we can order the Castle sets, but we can't get the new City sets yet.

I don't think people entered the contest just for the chance of getting the sets "months" before others. True, it is "false advertising" to some extent, but having the prizes themselves is already a treat!
Thank goodness. The wait is over. I don't know if I'll pick anything up off of the Internet, or from stores- I'm waiting for a release date in Canada from the son of my grandmother's friend, a LEGO employee. These look excellent: definitely multiples of the crossbow, and possibly a couple of carts. And let's not forget that August will bring the TRU exclusive! I'm so glad I've gotten a job refereeing soccer this year: it'll make picking up the sets a lot easier for the pocketbook.

I'm kinda new to this "TRU exclusive" stuff, so we Lego will sell it at stores and online in August? I thought you could only buy it at the TRU website.

But the efforts of a select few builders still earned them a free copy of a set from their catagories, so it wasn't a total waste.

Well the vikings are only at TRU, but you can still get them from S@H. I assume the same will be true for the undead pirate ship.
I have an official LEGO store near me ( yeah i'm that lucky ) and they sell viking sets that are supposivley TRU exclusive, but I could never find the one TRU exclusive Knights Kingdom set, the Battle at the pass. I would asume that you could get the TRU exclusive Castle set at the Lego stores but i don't know for sure.
I was just thinking: If some of these preorders will ship by May 28th, I should be able to find them in Walmart and such around the first week of June, no? Or at the very least TRU, which usually has new Lego sets before normal department stores.
Why would they sell these and u get em in May was Lego Company drinking from a partay and came back and did ther website ethier way on am going 2 buy these right now!
It's a giant "HOLY" but all the extra spaces seperating the letters didn't show up and distorted it. (Surprised you ddin't notice it when you click "quote" like I did.)

I noticed it when I was quoting but I thought it may have been a accident... my imagination is too large...
