Matija Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 LEGO® Collector's Guide Publishing date: 26.06.08 / LEGO Collector - Premium Edition beginning of August 2008We are happy to announce that the LEGO Collector's Guide is about to be launched by Fantasia Verlag GmbH. The confirmed launch date will be the 26.06.08. This bilingual (English/German) catalogue is for the fan and collector alike. It is a high quality product full of details. It comprises around 800 pages presenting nearly all sets produced by the LEGO Group since 1958. Further, there will be a LEGO Collector - Premium Edition which will be very limited to 3.333 continuously numbered copies. The Premium Edition will be published at the beginning of August 2008 for a price of 39,90€. This high quality catalogue has a hardcover and is presented in a very decorative packaging with exclusive LEGO gimmicks. Quote
Ras 74 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 This sounds good! Need to get my hands on a "Premium Edition". Will probably not be to hard -Ras- Quote
Brainbox Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Premium edition, eh? Sounds good, but I sense I'll just be getting the regular version. 26th June isn't long to wait either, so I think my next S@H order may include this. Quote
Karto Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) 26th of june was a long time to wait as it was first anounced for begin of may. I ordered mine two months ago, the money has been taken directly but since then nothing; not a mail to warn about the delays, not even a mail to thank for the order. The only thing you can see is an "offen" (open) at the order status when logging onto the site. It looks astonishingly amateurish until now. Hopefully the catalog itself won't... So the 'premium edition' sounds more as a (bad) joke right now. Edited June 25, 2008 by Karto Quote
Cyclone Titan Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Wow, seems cool. Although, define..."gimmicks"...if its got studs on it, or something, then i'll be happy. Quote
Svelte Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I had to order one. Can't wait, I'm really looking forward to this catalogue. 'Exclusive Lego gimmicks' sounds like a phrase deliberately designed to whet the appetites of completist AFOLS Quote
Holodoc Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 I ordered a normal copy for me, but I try to get one of these exclusives. Thanks for the info, Matija! Quote
pellevin Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Yup, this exclusive is a must. Order placed! Thanx for the heads up, Matija! Quote
Section8 Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Hopefully this is available from Lego.com or an online book store; ordering direct from the publisher results in shipping charges of 25.00 Euros to the US, more than the regular edition book itself! This may be my only option for a premium edition though; I am more interested in the hardcover aspect of that edition than any of the extras. Edited June 26, 2008 by Section8 Quote
captaintau Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 You guys that have ordered it: where from? Quote
Holodoc Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 You guys that have ordered it: where from? Here. Your welcome. Quote
Kernow Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Here.Your welcome. Thanks for the link! One Premium Edition ordered. I can't imagine these will be around for very long before they sell out. Quote
CopMike Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Here´s a link to the information in pdf-format. copmike Quote
Holodoc Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Here´s a link to the information in pdf-format. Sorry, Copmike, but your link doesn´t seem to work. It looks like you posted a thumbnail-pic of the pdf-file. Quote
CopMike Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 This link should workThanks but now we have the new pictures with the extras: CopMike Quote
Mirandir Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 I guess that this limited edition is going to sell out pretty fast now... Do the other golden bricks, 50 years celebration bricks, have the years engraved/printed on them too? Quote
yellost Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Is that the prize we might probably win from this raffle? if so, sweet Quote
Scouty Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Wow, that is really cool! Thanks for sharing. Quote
Johnny 5 Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 How would we go about getting one of these? Quote
SirNadroj Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 Just ordered mine. It'll be a birthday gift [surprisingly, the release date is my birthday! ] But those shipping charges make me sick. Quote
simonwillems Posted August 7, 2008 Posted August 7, 2008 I already ordered mine on the publisher's website, it seems there is a limit and they will not publish more then 3333 copies. Furthermore I just received an e-mail today that the releasedate is the 11th of august, maybe there are still some copies left, if you want them check out the website of the publisher here: The publisher's website Good luck!
