Great find! *y* These actually look alright! *wub* My favorites are the knight and wizard! I hope lego expands upon this line. These remind me of 'Special' playmobils! ;-)

wow the castle ones are great I *wub* the wizards hat nice colour! and that round table looks great aswell, that a new piece? The city ones are ok aswell at least I can get a couple of dogs for cheap! The workman and cleaner are also nice, but I think the city ones could have been better, (new figures maybe,like civilians!)

Thanks Aayla!

So what is the police-officer going to do if somebody speeds? Send the dog after them? :-D

I like these sets, there's more acessories with them than I first imagined. *y*

Edit: Just noticed the new circular piece as well. The small cement mixer uses two of them, and it appears to rotate when the cart is pushed.

Interesting observation! It looks new to me, but we can't be too sure at this stage!

Mysterious circular table element ON! *y*

Yes! This is excellent news! *sweet*

I will get the mini-roboter and alien jet just to get a jelly and astronaut (I didn't get any MM sets ;-)

I will also get all the city ones for peices and extras, and will buy multiples of the cleaner so I can get cheap rubbish bins! :-)

Now for the best ones- Castle:

I am SOOOOOOO glad about the accessories included in the Sentry. We can have an army of soldiers, or an army of knights! :-) *sweet* :'-) *wub* ! I will easily get about 15 or more of these!

The wizard is a great fig too, I was surprised he didn't end up looking like dumbledore. The extras are nice and is a good way for me to get owls (don't have any :-$ ) and some more crystal balls. I will probably buy about 3 of these. And well done casewindu for spotting that new peice! ;-)

These are looking great, hope to see these sets a success so we can see more over the years! :-)

TTFN! >:-)

Very nice! I'll be buying at least one of each of the CITY ones!

The worker with the grit bin reminds me of this years advent calendar. Since that and the arrow are pretty much the only good things in it in my opinion, this'll save me buying it!

Hmmm 4.50USD,Not bad but they seem like 2.99USD sets

I'll buy all the City,MM and multipule copies of the good knight!!

I just love that set,Sword,Shield,Spear,Helmet and regular helmet *wub*

I also hope they are polybagged that would be sweet!!

2008 On

This is great news for everything BUT castle! :-D Money wise buying a chess set would be much more cost-efficient. For the MM set it's not bad though! The fighter might be more cost effective however...as for city it's a definite buy! Overall more accessories than I was expecting (especially for the sentry!) but still, buying in bulk (chess set) is wiser if you can afford it.

Thanks aayla!! These pics look great!!! I'll definately get space and castle(since there is mars mision there does that mean there will be more sets in 2008?) i'm a bit disapointed with the sentry i thought it would be a tower. :-( Owell cant be right all the time. I dont normally get city but these impulse sets look great.

208 on!

I take it that's 2,99 Euros? That means this is about 5-6 bucks NZ! Woo! Affordable!

Easy gifts too! I can get each of the city sets for my mate. Done! I would buy the jelly, but the Whack-a-jelly competition's over. :-( ;-) Now I can say I can gert multiples of that castle set, and follow through with it! I'll get at least 5 of the soldiers, and a wizard, you don't really need more than one.

I see another new piece! On the alien fighter, the thing that connects to the aliens feet, it's 2 clip pieces, in one! The space man looks nice, but if I get that, then it's another soldier I don't get. But I am definately getting multiples of the knights.

Army building ON!

These are very nice sets, my favorite are the castle ones, particularly the wizard fig. I think they are very expensive for their size, however. Roughly $5 USD for a single knight and accessories? :-/ They should be half that.

Here is a good money converter.

http://www.xe.com/

Yeah, I typed in 'currency converter' into the address bar, thinking it was the google search bar, and it went to that site. :-P It said something like 5.60 NZD.

Roughly $5 USD for a single knight and accessories? :-/ They should be half that.

Well, it's about 6 bucks NZ, so I woulda thought it would be less than $5 US. :-/

Having looked at them again, I also really like the Castle ones, and the Mars Mission robot one. If I was remotely interested in those two lines I would pick em up.

In fact, I might even pick them up anyway, since they're "Impulse" purchases!

BrickMiner, I agree, they should be polybags! Anyone ever collect anything like POG's or trading cards when they were younger, that came in a foil pack? It'll feel just like that!

Even though it may cost 3 euros, but they look like the old $2 polybags Lego used to sell in supermarkets and toystores. I can't imagine them selling for more than $3 in the US. For example, at $6 in the US, you can get Crossbow Attack where you get two knights, a skeleton, and skeleton horse. Even at $3 for the impulse sets, that seems like a poor deal compared to Crossbow Attack. Anything higher than $3 would look like a ripoff. Therefore, I would guess it sells for $2-3 in the U.S.

Great find aayla-secura! *sweet*

Mini Roboter - Yes!

Alien Jet - No! (Army of Jellies! :-X ) The double clip piece is cool though.

The Knight - Yes! With the extra armour you can equip a second non-castle minifig.

Magician - Yes! I'm still very low on beards and it has that circle 4x4 plate!

Police Man - Yes-ish. I wouldn't mind another cop or two and another dog.

Building worker - Perhaps. I want the cone piece and those circle 4x4 plates but I already have too many workers...

Streetcleaner - Yes! I need more bins!

Fireman - Yes; I still haven't got a grey sawblade! :-|

These are just what I wanted. *wub* Hopefully the Australian price will be good...
