Vader Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Hmmm i wonder what set 10180 will be? Sw Hoth set perhaps? :-/ Quote

phoinix Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 oh god 140 euro for the corner cafe!!! im gonna have to get it from ebay so it could cost me up to 200 with shipping and taxes!! *wacko* Quote
xwingyoda Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Tks Legomilk for the info !! Be sure to update us asap ;-) I am really amazed at the number of expensive exclusive sets this year 8- Quote
gylman Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Exchange ripoffs aside, this is good news. I think that TLC has to charge a bit "extra" for these sets, which are not going to sell as many units as regular store-bought items. Less volume usually means more margin needed per unit. Still, that should not be done on teh basis of exchange rate ripoffs, which are the only thing that I hate about the Lego Company's business practices. I am happy, any day, to pay 200$ for a non-<insert that tiresome argument> cleverly designed attractive set with useful bricks ands nice colours. I hope they turn out to be good sets, and if so I hope they sell well ehough to make it worth TLCs while to continue this. A "world house" Creator series, featuring different architectural styles from all over the world, woudl be awesome. (And of course, the UCS castle and a return of Adventurers...) Quote
legomilk Posted March 3, 2007 Author Posted March 3, 2007 Is there anybody with more information on set 10180 I've got a hunch it might be a large airplane, but i haven't heard anything to confirm or deny that ? *pirate* Quote
oo7 Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Thanks for the news, Legomilk. Nothing here is really new to me except the cafe price, which being at 140 Euro will probably make it $100 here in the US. Vader said: Hmmm i wonder what set 10180 will be? Sw Hoth set perhaps? :-/ I doubt it, I'm betting Hoth will be 7665, not an exclusive. However, I think it will be strange if Lego gives us another big exclusive micro plane. Quote
legomilk Posted March 3, 2007 Author Posted March 3, 2007 next set (10182) is quite different from the plane. At a whopping $140, it comes out April 8th as an exclusive item for LEGO Shop@Home and LEGO Brand Retail Stores Quote

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 That seems expensive. It better be good... -ZotS Quote
Dark Brick Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Very nice news. Although I am not warming up to the prices yet, but then again that is what tax returns are for. X-D Quote
sam89 Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 After a search on the internet, I found out that the Eiffel Tower apparently has 3600 pieces and is in dark grey. That's the second biggest set ever (behind the Falcon, of course ;-)) ! Quote
legomilk Posted March 4, 2007 Author Posted March 4, 2007 Cool 3600 bricks. and de cafe ?? bricks Quote
oo7 Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Thanks for the great news, Sam. Now I can expect the final set to be a little bit more intricate that our prototype (JK :-D ) sam89 said: After a search on the internet, Hmmm.....wonder what site that was....... sam89 said: the Eiffel Tower apparently has 3600 pieces and is in dark grey. That's the second biggest set ever (behind the Falcon, of course ;-)) ! Wow, I really like all this "AFOL targeted proffessional model building long-term project masterpiece" stuff. It reminds me of those old Erector sets, and that lovely looking shiny Empire State Building sitting on my dresser. Too bad I could never spend that large amout of money on a single set. Hey, is it adequade to say this could possibly be minifig scale?!? Now that would be awesome! Now that I think about it again, it's most likely going to be too small.....but I think one could use it if they really wanted to. sam89 said: 3600 pieces and is in dark grey. You must mean Dark Bley..... 8-| Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Okay. 3600 peices. I was kind of expecting more. -ZotS Quote
