john cleese Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 So I guess I should start thinking about christmas shopping. I told my mom I wanted to wait for the 08 line but I'm wondering should I get my hopes up? Is it likely us canadians get the new sets in before christmas?
hollisbrick Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 i probly wouldnt get your hopes up, if there are no 2008 sets by the 20th you should get something else.
iamded Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 Money would be a good way to go, so you can keep it for the sets you want. I myself am getting Skellie Ship Attack and Kings Castle Siege, along with (probably) 100 NZD. This should complete my 07 Castle line. ~Peace

I hate how TLG does this. I oughtta take this to the embassy! >:-( I remember Vikings got here before christmas or am I mistaken? 8-|

Please don't use this face- >:-( when posting there. Thanks.
john cleese Posted December 4, 2007 Author Posted December 4, 2007 Perhaps you mistake the point of the embassy. Please don't use this face- >:-( when posting there. Thanks. well it is my understanding the embassy is a liazon between hobbyists and TLG. 8-| Can I use this face :-| when I'm there? What about this one *pirate* ?
ExoBuilder Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 well it is my understanding the embassy is a liazon between hobbyists and TLG. 8-| Can I use this face :-| when I'm there? What about this one *pirate* ?Alot of the new 08 stuff is available on SAH. You can use the last face when referring to THEM. *sweet*
Hinckley Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 well it is my understanding the embassy is a liazon between hobbyists and TLG. 8-| Can I use this face :-| when I'm there? What about this one *pirate* ? :-D :-D :-D Smartass. Use whatever face you like, but it's just not a place to go and make demands and rant about things. The embassy is a liason between hobbyists and the Ambassadors, not directly TLC, please be as civil as possible. Thanks. :-)
Lord Of Pies Posted December 4, 2007 Posted December 4, 2007 I live in the United Kingdom, I hope the 08 sets are available on S@H for a pre Christmas delivery, I presumed Canada would get them at the same time as the U.S though.
john cleese Posted December 5, 2007 Author Posted December 5, 2007 :-D :-D :-D Smartass. Use whatever face you like, but it's just not a place to go and make demands and rant about things.

Thanks. :-) damn bureaucracy. |-/ X-D Nah, it looks like candians are getting the sets soon, SAH Canada now has the 08 exoforce line.
Lt. Veers Posted December 5, 2007 Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) So, have you checked any of your stores yet? Edited December 5, 2007 by Lt. Veers
john cleese Posted December 16, 2007 Author Posted December 16, 2007 Well nothing at my stores yet. Man this is really grinding my gears, how the hell long does it take for them to ship some crates to Canada? C'mon TLG, you obviously have a market here, I'm sure megabloks will have their latest stuff on Canadian shelves before christmas. :-| Anyway have any of you fellow canadians spotted an 08 set in any store? I have a feeling if I dont tell my mom quick, I'll end up with one of those overpriced lego city harbor sets. :-X Yes, the high price makes me sick.
phoinix Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 (edited) oh come on! you are going on how you dont get the sets soon enough and Greece dosent even have S@H!! and as far as the 08 line goes it would be good if we see anything in march! so Canada is in a good state when it comes to this.. there are many countries that dont even get all the lines or all the sets.. (like Greece and Cyprus) we are small countries and have a smaller profit for the company but we should all be treated equal Edited December 16, 2007 by phoinix
iamded Posted December 16, 2007 Posted December 16, 2007 Hmm, how about you take an old Lego box, and put the money in there! Your mum will still get to see the happy look on your face after opening up the Lego box! :-P I don't know. Surely you can convince her that you don't really want an overpriced harbour, and you'd much prefer cash to get what you really do want. ~Peace

(like Greece and Cyprus) we are small countries and have a smaller profit for the company but we should all be treated equal I'm complaining because were just north of the border, we have the money for it and getting new sets to Toys'R'Us before christmas should be top priority for TLG. Toys'R'Us more like Toys'R'US!.... that was a joke. as in America gets all the toys. Ahh screw it....... Hmm, how about you take an old Lego box, and put the money in there! Your mum will still get to see the happy look on your face after opening up the Lego box! :-P I don't know.

I guess I shouldnt feel bad for Canadians, while countries like Greece and NewZealand have to wait longer. :-D
