Oh look at that. The Dwarf Mine coming back in August, officially. Just like Steve Witt said. Good ol' Steve, right as always.

Thanks for posting this find, Bruce. Some hysteria was caused when
Some troll wrote:actually the Dwarf Mine and the sets removed from LEGO's Catalog are the only tips i've given here,ask anybody who has heard my tips on BL's Chat room they will say i'm always dead on
Very nice to see that this set is back in the lineup.

It's a shame we in the States have to wait til August--I was hoping to include a few in my son's birthday in May. On the other hand, the set prices seem very reasonable, with decent sets in the 10, 20 & 30 dollar range.

Just clicked through the entire collection... Pleasantly surprised at the selection of new hair pieces introduced... Nice close-up of the Harley Quinn jester.

Those can't be the prices...7018 Viking Ship challenges the Midgard Serpent was $50 and had more pieces than that cheap knockoff Troll Warship! It just can't cost that much...
