Jetrax99 Posted November 30, 2013 The 44022 review is missing! Well, great. Now actual pictures of the physical set are gone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob C Posted November 30, 2013 Well, great. Now actual pictures of the physical set are gone. Wait a minute ...I found some on a thai website. Search "lego 44022" in the past 24 hours (as of 17:57 EST) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MakutaNocturn Posted December 1, 2013 The guy which we have seen with three monster heads is a combo made of Jaw Beast and Split Beast. I'm just saying because you were excited about him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalhiki Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) Review of Evo Walker is now up on BZP. Along with a video review if that suits your fancy. And yeah, it's a special shipment from Lego. Looks like we'll have to wait a bit longer for them to be released. A lot longer: Before we dive in, there's a couple things to go over. First, the LEGO CEE Team kindly shared with us that these sets will not be available in North America until March 1st, while they should be on store shelves everywhere else starting January 1st. They're aware this is not going to go over well with the community and have already passed it on. The decision has been made, and that's how it'll be. That said, I think we all know that these dates rarely prove solid, so you can probably expect to see the sets in the US by February sometime.

Gatanui Posted December 1, 2013 I wonder why the opted for that. -Gata Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalhiki Posted December 1, 2013 Who knows, but it kinda makes me upset. I like to build new HF sets Christmas morning, and now it's not going to happen (didn't happen last year either since Brain Attack was later than usual as well). Hopefully it's just a worst-case-scenario estimate and we could be seeing them earlier. BZP now has Furno Jet Machine as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aethersprite Posted December 1, 2013 I hope that doesn't affect the release date in other countries, I look forward to getting them in February as I do every year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vexorian Posted December 1, 2013 The light blue minifig head in furno looks like an odd choice of color. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) I'm kind of amused. For once I'll be getting the new release before most of you guys . Edited December 1, 2013 by DraikNova Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickBuilder3213 Posted December 1, 2013 This is odd... Usually, the UK gets the sets AFTER the US gets them... Next year, it will be the other way around. ...Now I feel bad for complaining about the fact that the US got BA Wave 2 in May while the UK got them at the end of September. ;o; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxlrocka Posted December 1, 2013 (Meanwhile, in that place where countries are personified...) UK: Quit hogging the early dates, US! US: Fine, fine. You can have these stupid early dates. Anyway, glad to see I can get my sets soon. So excited for mechs and splitting beasts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob C Posted December 1, 2013 hopefully this enables american retailers to reduce the price of DB and rocka jet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vexorian Posted December 1, 2013 It occurs to me minifigure heads could/should have been transparent. That would have really been the most awesome thing ever. Too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Furno and Evo 44022: Evo XL Machine Invasion From Below Combo Models It occurs to me minifigure heads could/should have been transparent. That would have really been the most awesome thing ever. Too bad. There wouldn't have been enough light passing through the helmet to show the color to the eyes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Takanuinuva Posted December 1, 2013 If the US doesn't get them till march. Does that mean Canada has to wait till march as well. Or do we get them in January like the rest of the world? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chro Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) If the US doesn't get them till march. Does that mean Canada has to wait till march as well. Or do we get them in January like the rest of the world? I've seen "North America" written in some places and "United States" written in others, so I'm not sure. Edited December 1, 2013 by Chro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vexorian Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) I had to wait till a week ago to get 1/2 of the first brain attack wave. Just saying. Edited December 1, 2013 by vexorian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VBBN Posted December 1, 2013 This is directly quoted from what was relayed to me from lego; Also please note that the release dates are January 1st for ROW (Rest of World) and March 1st for US.I know that is not optimal for our US fans, but please make sure to mark it clearly in the reviews. Looks like only the United States is behind on this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalhiki Posted December 1, 2013 Do we have a reason as to why they're delayed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vexorian Posted December 1, 2013 (edited) They want no distractions in promoting the LEGO movie. What a bummer about the armors not fitting a minifigure. Combined with the cockpits that can't easily hold normal figures and how unnecessarily tall the MFs are. It is almost as if the designers were actively trying to make the concept of this wave fail as absurdly as possible. I am so disappointed, really. Sure, they are much better than the Bionicle figures, but that's not exactly a difficult accomplishment to have. Edited December 1, 2013 by vexorian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zarkan Posted December 1, 2013 They want no distractions in promoting the LEGO movie. I'd argue this is actually being done for Hero Factory's sake - in other words, they don't want the Lego Movie to plummet Hero Factory's already lackluster sales even further.

Takanuinuva Posted December 1, 2013 This is directly quoted from what was relayed to me from lego; Looks like only the United States is behind on this one. Glad that I'm Canadian.
