Robert8 Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Goat looks awful And that's not a horse So, I'd guess Horse Suit Guy and Goat Suit are next in the CMF line Quote
Vindicare Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) It feels more like a marketing than a future series. The torso on the goat is from the first unicorn. The snake head looks to be from the Ninjago Movie CMF scientist. The only new print is the white feet on the fox. The zodiac would make for a fun series though. Also, just looking for opinions, a friend & myself are looking to go to the store on the 17th...a week after they’re released. What are the chances of finding them on the shelves? I want to be optimistic & think yes...but then again, the hype for the sets are big. Edited January 3, 2020 by Vindicare Quote

I meant that Goat and Horse look so bad there that proper ones are needed. So, that's why I was guessing those might be coming soon Quote
Beardybricks Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Wow.. literally seconds after midnight and the temple is out of stock on the UK site. Black Friday bull**** all over again. Absolutely fuming. Was it released early? Did anyone get one? Quote

Came just to check this :D I wanted to by it around 6am and it was out of stock on all European versions of shop.lego. Quote
HeadBrick Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 I guess I was lucky then. I got my order in on the Temple from the Norwegian shop. Really looking forward to getting it Quote
BenderBrau Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Umm, what are you guys talking about? I don't think it was really out of stock, just some technical problem, or Lego decided to launch this set in the morning instead of midnight, for whatever reason. Now, it's a real possibility that it will be out of stock before the Year of the Rat promo starts on monday. People, don't buy the sets yet, wait until monday! Quote
TeriXeri Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Personally not in a huge hurry on this, if it's anything like Dragonboat Race it'll likely still be in stock months from now. Maybe I'll get the Temple with the Year of the Rat promo and the other one later. Edited January 11, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote

I love the Dragon Boat, but it’s the least exciting of the now 5, so it’s continued availability isn’t all that surprising. Ordered mine tonight. Unfortunately, the stores nearest me were sold out, which I pretty much expected, so I had to go the electric route. Now the agonizing wait... Quote

Not really. I picked up my sets yesterday at the nearest store and they sell like crazy. It's in fact not too hard to imagine that they will sell out quickly and many people waiting for the special Rat GWP will be disappointed not being able to buy the Temple Fair or Lion Dance. The Dragonboat Race is not a valid comparison, as its somewhat lackluster appearance and absence of something truly unique turned many potential buyers off. Mylenium Quote
Lucarex Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 They won’t sell out in European stores. Quote

Mylenium Of course they might sell out short-term, especially during a promotion, but I was more pointing at the long-term, maybe not until 2021, but at least for a while longer. I know the first 2 sets retired already officially but those were also limited release, not reaching Europe or America at-all. Dragonboat Race also released later (in Europe/America) so that's another fair point. Still fantastic sets Edited January 11, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote
Driver Brandon Grumman Posted January 11, 2020 Posted January 11, 2020 Why do I have a feeling that I need these for my town? Quote

I wouldn't hold my breath. They didn't produce additional lots of the Dragon Dance and New Year Eve's Dinner, either, even for the Asian market way back when. This could really be a "On(c)e & done" thing. Mylenium Quote

Lucarex Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Of course it’ll be a limited run that retires quickly as seasonal sets, but there’ll be plenty of stock up to Easter at least. Edited January 12, 2020 by Lucarex Quote
TeriXeri Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Just ordered both seperately. I got the Pig last year with the Dragon Boat so the Rat isn't bad. Hidden Side has another GWP from January 24, but who knows, things like the Rat promo might have sold out by then. Edited January 13, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote
kasmca Posted January 13, 2020 Posted January 13, 2020 forgot to put in my order last night a midnight. Woke up this morning and it's back ordered for 30 days. At least it's not sold out. The Cat Brickhead is sold out. Quote
TeriXeri Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 (edited) It seems that Year of the Rat promo is already gone at European LEGO.com Edited January 16, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote
jimmynick Posted January 17, 2020 Posted January 17, 2020 I had planned to restrict myself to just one of this year's sets, but I read the reviews of both on TBB and decided I needed both of them. But now I've found the Temple Fair is sold out! So I've backordered the Lion Dance, which is the one I really had my eyes on anyway.

The dragon boat race really wasn't all that good a set compared with the family dinner or either of this year's sets, though. Ah but the Temple Fair is still available on the UK web shop. Wonder if I should buy it and get it shipped to a family member, or just see if it comes back on the US shop. Quote

I agree those sets are very good, changed my mind last monday with the Rat promo and got both sets (EU), now the sets are still sold, but unlike US, the rat promo sold out before the sets. Too bad the dinner wasn't released in EU. Edited January 17, 2020 by TeriXeri Quote

I would imagine they’ll get more stock, but it’s kinda weird that that set is out of stock while the other is back ordered. I would probably go the route of ordering it in the UK, that way you’re guaranteed to get it. Quote
jimmynick Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 If you live around DC: there's one temple fair left at the Pentagon City store. I bought the other one Quote
toydad2 Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 what color is the mouse/rat costume head? I want to find plain shirt and pants to make Quote
julesvincent Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 It is the same color as the gingerbread family and the lighter one of chip'n'dale from the disney series 2. Quote
