Good, very goooood! 36 days and counting...

I see nothing new here. To me it looks like the existing road plates. I second your wishes. Where´s our ambassador?

Yep! I got mine (2 of those) some days ago for 32€. Nice deal if you take into consideration they are discontinued. And I´m slowly coming to the point, that the new track can exist next to the old 9V track.

At least that´s how it worked last year, when I got my "Fabrik" bricks in Günzburg with my annual pass from Billund. But you´ll be in the park for three days... And even two days are more expenisve than buying another annual pass.

Hi Torsten and welcome (back) to Eurobricks, the friendly place where all comes together! You´re from Wassenberg? That´s (almost) next to my home town, Nettetal! If you ever feel like talking about bricks and all the other cool stuff, head over and we´ll have a cup of coffee/beer/water... If you want to know more about me, read this. Also viel Spaß hier, und wenn Fragen sind - sprich mich an!

Ok, wise guys: What about this: Easy enough for you?

Happy birthday, Jipay! Did you receive any Lego so far or are you saving the money you get to buy all the stuff in Günzburg? 41 days left...

Now I´m really glad I managed to get two sets really, really cheap (50% off): 7783 and 7786 In other words I only bought them because of the price, not because it was Batman. I do love the minifigs though - sorry, no chance to get them.

Aaaargh! I would buy ten of those... Dammit! No sale of this kind in Europe.

Now that is very strange, for the personnel at the Lego Store Oberhausen told me, they had the shelves filled with 10194, BUT are not allowed to sell it before april, 15th. It will definitely be available in the stores! And I will get my copy next wednesday. Nothing beats well informed employees...

Is it hard for you to let one land on my desk as well? I couldn´t have said it better! Now come on, TLC - back to the older design of trucks.

So rest in peace (pieces? ), Sinner and long live Siegfried! (let me assure you - you are glad you don´t know this movie) Btw. a good way to double posts in a welcome thread! Holodoc (who´s still pleased with his nick)

ONE WORD (o.k. more than one... ) ABOUT TICKETS TO THE PARK: The normal entrance fees (season pass) at LL Germany are 55€ per adult and 50€ per child -> 105€ for me. Until today I would have done the following: buy 1 day ticket 34€ -20% coupon = 27,20€, next day buy season pass for 21€ (hope this works: 55€-34€ ). plus for my son 28€-20%=22,40€+22€=44,80 Grand total: 93€ For all those people who want to enter the park as cheap as possible, here are two alternatives: If you join 1000steine.de as a "plus-member", you will have to pay at least 9€ for a six month membership. Within doing this you get a special offer for a one day Legoland ticket: It´ll cost you 18€ (instead of 34€ per adult or 28€ for children). With the 1000steine offer it ends up in paying 36€ for the first day and hopefully 43€ for the season pass on the second day. Bill: 79€ +9€ for the membership = 88€ That´s another 5€ to spend on bricks! I know this is a bit complicated, so here´s another opportunity: For all those who own a payback-card. Sorry, I think this will exclude all foreign eventees. If you order a Legoland ticket online, you´ll receive 1.000 payback-points. That is 10€! (This offer is valid until 13th of april only - so hurry!) Bill: 24€+18€(1st day) + 21€+22€(season pass) = 85€ If you have other opportunities to save (more) money on the entrance fees, please post them here! 43 days to go!

Same for Germany. They are really driving me mad with this policy!

I phoned the store in Oberhausen today and they told me, the set WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE BEFORE April, 15th! They already have them on the shelves, but are not allowed to sell them before that date!

Hello and welcome to Eurobricks! It´s always nice to see an AFOL coming out of his dark ages. Black cars you´re looking for? There are only a few sets containing these. If you are able to get one of the World City Police and Rescue line from 2003 (off ebay for example) then this would be an alternative to the mentioned sets. The sets are not the best Lego ever released, so they shouldn´t be too expensive. (And the set 7033 contains 3 chrome gold 1x2 tiles )

Same for Germany.

You deserve the title "most useless diggin´ up of a lost thread"! 75% od the people who posted here have left EB (for good) and they started it 5 (five!) years ago. Congratulations!

And now for something different: You always wanted to call a Black Seas Barracuda your own? Lego Amusement Park 5525 (Factory) is still available for 39,90€ (including a mini BSB)

Exactly my thoughts! There´s nothing really special about this set besides the color. But I´m always happy to see sets I don´t have to buy. Salvation for my wallet. And there are still some goodies to be released this year...

Happy birthday Mr. Ambassador! Hail to the negotiator, baby! How many days left till we meet again?

Do you think YOU would get one before ME? TRU Germany momentarily has a 20% sale on all (ALL!) Lego sets. Particularly interesting could be set 7633 Construction Site It was reduced to 74,98 and with 20% its 59,99€ - that´s 30€ off the S@H price! Let me know if I can get something for you.

I agree, great idea! My avatar is already in the race for the rewind-motor-competition.

Now that´s what I call a big disappointment! The visible motor is simply ugly and weakens the complete look of the set. I cannot believe TLC couldn´t have done it better.

That´s what I wanted to read and I´m eagerly awaiting the response.
