artcon Posted November 25, 2014 SO glad I bought while it was on sale at S@H just a few days ago. My most favourite looking train set by far. Unfortunately have to wait til Christmas to build it :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Exa Posted November 25, 2014 Same for Belgium, no more Horizon Express at S@H. It's still wildly aviable for (online) stores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted November 26, 2014 Wonder if Christmas is only a month away has anything to do with it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nesquik Posted November 30, 2014 Although the product was a sale item, I would be somewhat surprised if it's being phased out already (just under two years). But the positive spin is that a replacement could be on the cards soon! *crosses fingers* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted November 30, 2014 Still available in Canada S@H. No sign of the "retiring soon" flag on the production description page. Hmm, will a new train be on time or late arriving? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjorkan Posted November 30, 2014 Just ordered my two from US!!! Dang I was hoping I would get them for Christmas instead of having to pay for them!! And yes, I'm a 32 year old adult who gets sets for Christmas still... no shame. Oh, don't be, of course, I am 54 and I bought my lego present for Christmas three months before, gave it to my wife and said that this is what I would like to find by Christmas tree... thanks God that two HE are ready in the basement for my birthday :) m.

MusicaRibelle Posted November 30, 2014 As much as I want a new creator train set, the HE has not been retired yet. They have plenty in stock in the US, and I think this is just a temporary shortage in Europe due to higher demand. Patience... and if you don't have the HE yet and you're getting it for Christmas , congratulations, you're in for a treat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stu808 Posted December 1, 2014 Lucky I got my HE a few days ago for a birthday present! A combined present from my brilliant family! Mum, sister and brother-in-law Not in stock with S@H down here in NZ... although I think NZ S@H comes via Europe Also the major Lego stockists here in Middle Zealand no longer have HE listed online to purchase and two stores I've spoken to say they can't get them in stock anymore. But I won't say what one toy store who knows me; did SAY to me. Looks like getting 2nd HE to make a full train in going to be harder then first though...

Lazarus Posted December 1, 2014 I know this maybe a bad thing for some of you who dont have this, I havw had my 2 sets since they came out. But on the bright side it could mean an up and coming train is coming. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redimus Posted December 1, 2014 It's hardly surprising there's some left in the US, it's not an American train. TGVs are pretty iconic in Europe, but Americans tend to prefer American (especially when about half of Lego's train output is American inspired). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duq Posted December 1, 2014 ... about half of Lego's train output is American inspired. Really? 60052 American 60051 European 3677 European 7939 European 7938 European 7898 European 7897 European 10233 European 10219 American 10194 European Should I continue?

Heppeng Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Nah, I'll do it for you: 10170 American 10133 American 10020 American 10022 American 10025 American 10014 American plus a whole load of My Own Train sets which are not specifically European or American but could pass as American such as 10013 10015 10016 10017 etc. etc...
