This set really isn't the greatest but it has a nice overall "appeal factor". It's the thought of an old sunken Spanish Galleon, the gold treasure, and an adventure sub to go searching through the mysterious deep waters in search of the unknown. The box art adds to the appeal. I'm still debating if I want this set, but I do like it even though it could have been 100 times better with a larger and more designed shipwreck.

I'm not sure. You get to a point when your collection is getting too large. I like this set though and think it's the best of the collection. At $25, the price is good. Generally, once I start buying the mid-sized sets though, I'll want the entire collection. I have the two smaller sets now, but still have not opened.

D-The-P: Looking forward to seeing your review.

yup, i know what you mean... im finally getting to a point where i can't have everything on display at once. im sure others are way past that point... but it's hard when you finally get there...

what to put away ??? :'-(

the angler fish set is deceiving by the box art... i was "saving" mine for a while too... but it's worth opening and by far my favorite... but im prone to favoring small and medium sized sets... as you probably know ;-)

It seems to be available at S@H Europe for EUR 19.29:

7776 on S@H

The price seems to be a special price, too, and at 19.29 you pay the lowest shipping if you decide to just buy this set *sweet*

Edit: Just noticed this is the 127,000th post (including deleted posts). Congrats EB *y* ;-)

Just picked this set up in TRU. I was just browsing the LEGO sections and was very shocked to see this. I saw it before but I thought it was a cancelled set or that it would be released mid-year.

This is interesting: I ordered the Shipwreck last week off S@H and when I checked my order status earlier ("shipped" - yay!) I clicked on the set and got a "Sorry, item is not available in this country". I checked other countries and it seems it's not available in Europe anymore. It is available in the US now, though...

Looks like it was a pretty short promo... I'm wondering if and when it'll pop up again...

Ouch, I really don't like the sound of that at all |-/

My guess is that TLC is really bad with that dreadfull combination Offer/Demand (loool) and I sincerely hope that this set will pop in TRU shortly and on SAH ;-)

*yoda*
