hrontos Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 http://Instagram.com/p/Z20_moDVLO/ When will they be shipping? According to email from today, in August. Quote

We will ship it to you during August 2013." Edited May 29, 2013 by Gene Quote
Seasider Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I'm surprised with seeing boxes like that it'll take so long for them to get to the shops. (hoping I'll be able to pick one up) Quote
crazy_1993 Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Awesome, a confirmation e-mail, I wish there was a close up, high resolution picture of those boxes, it looks like lots of interesting futures are displayed on them. My birthday is in August, this is going to remind me of being 10 years old again, hoping for an awesome lego set for my birthday, lol! Quote
Zerobricks Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Got the email too! But why 2 more months of wait, if all the stuff is there *needs to be patient* Quote
Blakbird Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I wonder how fast these will sell out? I'm not one of the lucky 100 who will get one shipped to them for free and have a guaranteed copy. With no way to pre-order, that means I just have to get in line when they become available. As a collector with every Technic set, I find that I am somewhat concerned that I will not even be able to get one. It will be interesting to see just how popular they are. I guess the answer to that question will determine whether or not LEGO does such contests in the future. Quote
jovel Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 My biggest concern is that some traders will buy all sets and sell them ( or the exclusive parts ) for ridiculous prizes. Quote
Meatman Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 My biggest concern is that some traders will buy all sets and sell them ( or the exclusive parts ) for ridiculous prizes. I can almost guarantee that a large majority of the sets will be bought up by people who have no love for Technic and will only be purchasing them for future resell. Quote
Paul Boratko Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I have several friends from various parts of the world depending on me to get them a set... It isn't going to be easy with resellers... Quote
zux Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 This set will be available on S@H also right? I hope so, otherwise no chance for those who live outside of countries with official LEGO offline shops. Quote
rm8 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) http://Instagram.com/p/Z20_moDVLO/ When will they be shipping? Glad to tell, I was there at monday 27. Meet designers, watch packing process. Very impressive! Nice to meet Jeppe, Markus, Niels and other designers here. The set is even more exclusive than i expected:) we spent 4 wonderful days in Billund. Now we together with my wife and 3years old son moved to cottage at the Baltic seashore. The box is opposite me on the table. I have 12 days Danish vacation left. It is enough to assemble 41999, make many photos in Danish outdoor and record videos. Then I am going to write review, may be in different languages (rus/eng), but that will be after my vacation. Hope to post review closer to 1st of july. Leak was a surprise for me, and for designers team, as I understand. Anyways, set is awesome, I am really glad that I am here now. P.s. photo cant show all the beauty and coolness of box, believe me. The box is also unique;))) Edited May 29, 2013 by rm8 Quote
merman Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) Rm8: can you get more info on the availability of the set (online/offline) and our concerns or fears of parties buying large amounts of sets for resale... Have fun in Billund! Edited May 29, 2013 by merman Quote

Alasdair Ryan Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I would not be surprised if they make a restriction of one set per order,or even per person. Quote
merman Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 Plans are to sell set only thru shop.lego.com Cool! Thx for the quick reply! Quote
1974 Posted May 29, 2013 Posted May 29, 2013 I would not be surprised if they make a restriction of one set per order,or even per person. They should. We do not want the horders to snatch this set up and jack up prices into oblivion, do we? rm8, sounds like you had a blast! Lucky you :laugh: Also, rm8 Billund is just a factory and an airport, please DO see some more of this wonderfull country! Come to Aarhus (my city, if you do feel free to pm me), Copenhagen or some of the beautifull small islands .. Quote
