BlueberryWaffles Posted February 11, 2014 The retail catalog and the toy fairs said August. I don't wanna wait that long for my Spaceship, Spaceship, Spaceship! Does anybody have finalized prices for summer sets? I was thinking Mech $50 (though Brickset says $60) Dropship $80, Spaceship $100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
korpen4444 Posted February 11, 2014 Does anyone else notice the Spaceship Spaceship SPACESHIP! is made from classic space parts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h22chen Posted February 11, 2014 Ya, the spaceship seems like it is the best set, but also look the most expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lego Spy Posted February 11, 2014 ...but also look the most expensive. Well technically the Sea Cow is the most expensive, but its an exclusive so I suppose there's a difference there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ResIpsaLoquitur Posted February 11, 2014 Oh gosh, I just had a horrible thought. What if the DVD/Blu-Ray release comes with a different minifigure depending on where you buy it? Like, buy it at Target and it comes with Emmet in Robot Disguise. Buy it at Best Buy and you get Emmet in one of his many costumes from his apartment. Buy it from Wal-Mart and you get Wyldstyle in Robot Disguise. I hope this wouldn't happen, but I do remember that Target was the only store last year to come with an exclusive minifigure for The Hobbit DVD release.

Then we will riot, breaking through their realms with our Spaceships!! Has anyone considered an early 2015 wave for the Lego Movie? The are some vehicles in the movie that have some serious set potential. It would be such a shame if they didn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Archer Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Back of the Sea Cow box!! http://imgur.com/1zmnOMJ Also according to a Lego employee $250 USD alas it's a bit expensive. Edited February 11, 2014 by Archer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legofreak86 Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Personally I hope it is Vitruvius from the prologue that comes with the dvd/blu ray! That is the only character variant of the main three cast members Lego hasn't made. It was a cool design with the amulet, silver headband, strange scarf thing and the normal eyes. It seems the most likely to me unless green lantern is finally going to be released. I also hope that they do what they did with the Lego batman movie and include the figure at ALL retailers rather than limiting it to target in the USA. Then again warner blu ray titles are always region free so if I have to import to get the figure then so be it! I suspect it will be like the Lego batman movie which was released everywhere with the figure. I'd estimate the release date somewhere in June as that is the usual month to coincide with February film releases (approx.4 mths after cinema release) I also hope they include his prologue staff.

---Vertea--- Posted February 11, 2014 shoot... no recoloured octopus on the back. I was really hoping they'd include the gold/tan octopus from the movie version. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kez Posted February 11, 2014 I don't know if anyone has seen this yet but here is a nice video showing how the lego movie was made, there are also some clear pictures in the video of the sea cow set (The close ups of the sea cow ship appear at about 1:45 into the video) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then I would get it from Walmart cause Robot Emmet comes in the ship and the costumes are just CMFs with his head.

Laservampire Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Aw man, $250?! It's probably going to be close to $400 in Australia so count yourself lucky Edited February 12, 2014 by Laservampire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canada_7 Posted February 12, 2014 $250 American? Are you serious? That's likely at $300 Canadian. Ridiculous. More pieces than the Simpsons House and all, but I'd rather get the Simpsons House (which I have) at a cheaper price point and a nicer set IMHO. I like the Sea Cow and have been thinking of likely getting it but if it ends up at $300 Canadian...just a big WTF. $250 Canadian maybe (and even then I'm very meh on that price; albeit lots of pieces) but that being the American price...??

Lance Posted February 12, 2014 Someone else in the thread said that it's £170, which translates to about $200. This person also received the info from a LEGO store. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Infernum Posted February 12, 2014 I wouldn't think it'd end up being more than the Simpsons set, the Seacow should have a better price (since it isn't licensed). You never know though. We should know on the 17th though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickmasta Posted February 12, 2014 Will get it no matter what, this ship is A-W-E-S-O-M-E Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Archer Posted February 12, 2014 the $250 price is directly from employee who had the job of putting the price stickers on the boxes. Other countries prices aside, 2700+ parts and many large ship parts 250 is certainly reasonable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bekindsorewind Posted February 12, 2014 Still getting it day one. The price doesn't matter. Such a glorious ship from a glorious movie. Plus... BENNY!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aanchir Posted February 12, 2014 the $250 price is directly from employee who had the job of putting the price stickers on the boxes. Other countries prices aside, 2700+ parts and many large ship parts 250 is certainly reasonable. True. It's not unfair to us Americans as much as it is fairer-than-usual to our cousins across the pond. The American price-per-piece is still far more equitable than the Imperial Flagship ($180 for 1664 pieces). Obviously, a higher price is going to be off-putting to a lot of people, especially those who are already uneasy with a non-traditional pirate ship. But from what we can see, the Sea Cow is every bit as elaborate and ornate as you'd expect of a D2C set, and I'm sure there are lots of goodies in the set that we haven't seen yet. I wonder what faces Emmet will come with in this set. It'll be nice if he has the same face as in Emmet's Constructo-Mech, since that face is otherwise exclusive to that set.
