Just reserved this set at a local toy shop for € 159,95 (special pre-order price) I can pick it up next thursday, July 31st.

Thanks, I'll contact them :-)

Any more details where you could pre-order the 42043 for that price? My local Lego shop will sell it for € 177,95 but getting it even cheaper is always nice.

After not building with (Technic) Lego for more than twenty years I decided to buy the 42009 crane last Christmas. It was more an impulse purchase because I saw it on a large online shop with a great discount. But well, I couldn't imagine how much fun it would be to build the crane and spend hours and hours on it until I finished the build. It was so much fun that I immediately started to look for other sets and since last Christmas I got the Volvo Wheel Loader (42030), Service Truck (42008), Cargo Plane (42025), the Pickup Truck (42029) and yesterday I stumbled upon the Unimog at my local Lego store which could be the largest Lego store here in Holland. It was their last Unimog and I could get it for a very nice price. So far I the Volvo Wheel Loader is the set that I like the most but after starting to build the Unimog last night I might think that the Unimog could be my favourite new set
