Osuharding1 Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 So after a brief look at LEGO Shop@Home for many different regions (USA, Europe, UK, etc.), it appears as though 42039 will not be available in the USA on January 1, 2015 but it will be in other regions. This seems to be a trend with the largest first half sets. For example, the USA did not get 42000 until March 2013 and we didn't get 9397 until March 2012 whereas European countries had access to those sets from LEGO January 1st. Anyone know why this is happening? I assume it's because Technic is not as popular in the USA. Quote
Lakop Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I'm surprised it will be available in January 2015 in the UK. I think I'll wait for the second half of 2015. H Quote
DrJB Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Not sure it has to do with whether Technic is popular or not in the US. This may have to do with how large the US volume is. Let's face it, TLG does not have unlimited resources for production and as such, they must stagger their production/delivery schedule as their production allows it.

SNIPE Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 According to the Lego shop the official release date is1/1/15 however this may change. Quote
Osuharding1 Posted January 1, 2015 Author Posted January 1, 2015 Just as I thought, 42039 is not listed as available online nor is available in the Lego Store. I guess we wait until March... Again. Quote
Trace17 Posted January 2, 2015 Posted January 2, 2015 I don't see 42036 either. So those two maybe in March? Hopefully? Quote
