Savage Oppress Posted June 18, 2013 Why couldn't LEGO release the sets to everyone around the world on June 1, 2013 instead of making USA wait forever for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spid3r Posted June 18, 2013 Hahaha, in Australia we only have one or two direct lego stores so we have to wait even longer for large retailers to get them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrumpetKing Posted June 18, 2013 I think he means official LEGO Stores. As in nothing but LEGO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Dino Posted June 18, 2013 Why couldn't LEGO release the sets to everyone around the world on June 1, 2013 instead of making USA wait forever for them. Hi as european i could ask you back - why is Lego in the US so cheap? Better wait a bit longer for a good thing than paying what we pay, eh? ;) Dino Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cwetqo Posted June 18, 2013 And to tease some more: germany had them in April (City, Coast Guard...). and may (creator, SW, LotR). But yeah, I would also like to swap for later release and lower (up to 50%) prices, like in USA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kristel Posted June 18, 2013 I think he means official LEGO Stores. As in nothing but LEGO. That's why I'm curious. I'm pretty sure we don't have any official LEGO stores. Maybe a couple of independents that focus on LEGO? Just remembered we have a couple of Moore Educational centers, but I don't think of them as official stores.

MikroMan Posted June 18, 2013 Eh, I'll swap your release dates with our prices anytime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hrw-Amen Posted June 18, 2013 And anyway, not everywhere has them or all of them even not in the USA. I do not know what the 'official' LEGO stores in the UK have but down where I am all we have is two CITY Coastguard sets and two CITY Cargo sets. No Galaxy Squad or the rest of the CITY sets, no Lone Ranger or Lord of the Rings! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGO Guy Bri Posted June 20, 2013 Personally, I'm fine with the release dates of sets, especially if, say summer set releases are broken up into a few sets per month. Really takes the sting having not to buy large orders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bacem Posted June 20, 2013 in my country, we have to bear with both the high prices and late release. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
