jnlll Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 This is my first time to post on Eurobricks. Sorry for my poor English. *wacko* I find that 4483 is sold on S@H of North America. I think if anyone want to get ATAT in reasonable price, it is a good chance. Could anyone can tell me whether I can get it on American local toy stores? Because I will go to US next month, I fear that 4483 will sell out and out of stock again. :( Quote
snefroe Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 i checked the Belgian internet store of lego, and it's not available for me... i also fear that TLC is not going to distribute this set to retailers... i can't find it in the catalogue for instance... Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 jnlll, Its not available in France anymore. You should check out several KBtoys because they sometime have old sets ;) Good luck for your quest ;) Quote
snefroe Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 well... there are at least rumours about a rerelease, but they refer to 2006 or 2007, certainly not this year... Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Let's hope thse rumors will be confirmed ;) Quote
jnlll Posted April 7, 2005 Author Posted April 7, 2005 Let's hope thse rumors will be confirmed ;) Let's hope thse rumors will be confirmed ;) If we could live in North America, we would get it on S@H now. >:( All I hope is that it will release again in other areas. Quote
Grim Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 well, i also live in France and have also been loking for ATAT (and i'm also sorry for my English ;) ) I've called LEGO to know if i could find it somewere and the answer was : "We know that a lot of people are loking for it in europe and as we have some ATAT in north america we have made deliver some to Europe. BUT (yes but :( ) the cargo disappeared in the sea!!!! :oo :oo All these ATAT in the sea!! it's so sad :'( They also told me the will (certenly) rerelease it, but yes, it will be in 2006 / 2007 Quote

Welcome to our friendly boards, Grim, I am sure you'll have a blast here ;) He, He that's a funny story :-D Oh, well, now we'll have to wait a bit ;) Quote
Grim Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 well, thank you for your welcome :) , and yes, i'm French, from north of France It's a funny story, but when i've heard that i was asking myself if i was dreaming or not *wacko* Anyway, i've finnish to find my ATAT so i'm very happy!!! one of my favorit (but not solid enough :/ ) Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Grim, Just by curiosity, where did you find it and how much did you pay for it??? ;) Quote
Grim Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 xwingyoda, I've found it in Australia, here : http://www.bricknet.com.au/ It was 119 euro + 30 to send so 149, it's a bit expansive but as i've stop smoking i prefer to put my money in ATAT :-D (and i've also found Techniq McLaren formula from 2001!! and i think i was one of the last to buy it, now they don't have anymore) Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 Grim, Thanks for your answer ;) Its not that bad, because the set was more than 100 Quote
chewie Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 ooo i think i can still get the atst here at my lego store if not im sure i could order it but i doubt i will hmmph i miss out on so many sweet sets cause i never have the money :'( Quote
Grim Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 xwingyoda, i had the chance to found tow set i wanted, so yes, it's not that expansive for 2 (for Australia) and for what is to stop smoking, i don't know why but it was very easy, i've used "patch" during 2 weeks and i've stop everything but now i (sometimes) smoke cig :$ Quote

How old are you?? Back on topic: if the AT-AT is back in the US, I should be back here (in Europe) this year. TLC should do it because they have the momentum with the ROTS sets ;) Quote
snefroe Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 what's weird is that the AT AT is so popular now, but obviously failed to meet expectations in 2003 when the entire star wars line tumbled... why didn't you guys buy this one in 2003? why now, when the thing is out of production? Quote
xwingyoda Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 snefroe1, I already have 1 ;) , but I should have bought another one at the time for a nice Hoth battle scene. So, if I have the chance of finding one, why not??? Quote
The Middleman Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 I don't think it was marketed that well. I think that it should have arrived in conjunction with an Echo Base and other Hoth sets, as well as AFTER the 2004 color switch so it'd be more wanted for the gray parts. Quote
Grim Posted April 7, 2005 Posted April 7, 2005 why didn't you guys buy this one in 2003? why now, when the thing is out of production? my dark age is over since only 1 Quote
