10305 Lion Knights' Castle 90th anniversary set
InkyStar replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
I'm in Australia and ordered it just before midnight, when it said in stock and got my confirmation email. However by the time I woke up my order is on back order, shipping before August 25th. Exactly the same as what happened with the with the Titanic -
I'm in Australia - preorder was due to open at 9am on Nov 1st, became avaliable at about 9:05 and I got my order in straight away. By the afternoon, the preorder allocation was done, and it had closed for ordering. It reopened a few days later but with a ship date of mid December and yesterday the ship date changed to Jan 2022. Went to in warehouse on Sunday, then I got the shipping notification at 7:15pm last night (Monday 8th). I'm now constantly refreshing the Lego tracking page waiting for the tracking number to go live so I can see when the estimated delivery date will be

It's 8:10am on Sept 1st here in Australia and it's still avaliable on S@H. I am partially regretting letting my Mum know about it cause it's now my Christmas present cause I really want the Brickheadz, but no idea if Mum is planning on buying it direct or not (but also really grateful I've got parents who indulge my Lego love and obession even at 33 years old)

First initial reaction for me is WOW. The detail is incredible, and I am relieved to see the pink isn't quite as neon as it first appeared. Christmas is an awfully long way away!

www.ttbda.com Set is $599.99 in Australia...ouch

QR Code on the Lego Page is now active, it takes you through a odd sort of animation of Diagon Alley, with you peering through the brick wall. Its hard to see much though, but not long to go now for it go live!
-
Haven't seen this posted, but the Toy Newsi website has very, very clear pictures of Diagon Alley, and one of the photos shows the sooty face Harry. Edited to add, it looks like an alternate face, as the body is the same as the clean face Harry.

Awesome, thanks! I got the Hogwarts Castle last year, and soon as I told Mum about Diagon Alley, she told me my christmas present for this year was sorted. I am very lucky, even though my Mum had thought the days of buying Lego for Christmas were long done
-
I have a question (it might be familiar as I've asked it before but then it got lost in the excitment of sticker leaks) - does anyone know how long it will stay exclusive to Lego for? It's my Christmas present, and Mum wants to know if she has any chance of being able to pay it off (through somewhere like Toyworld), as opposed to buying direct. Thanks

I'm a long time lurker emerging from my shell to comment (I'm in stage 4 lockdown, gotta pass the time somehow!). I wasn't sure how I was going to feel if Gringotts wasn't included, but now, I don't actually mind. A stand alone Gringotts that connects to Diagon Alley would be pretty awesome actually, cause just think of the detail that can be included. I've got a question - does anyone know roughly how long it will stay being sold by Lego directly? Mum said I could have it for Christmas (yes, I am a 33 year old who still asks for Lego ), but she would prefer to layby it, if possible. Thanks!

I agree about the mini-figs, when I get the set they are going to banished to a planet far, far away. They are slightly terrifying.

I was on the fence about it when I first saw it, but now I like it, and will get it. But those ginger bread figures will be banished to a galaxy far far away, possibly in my TIE Fighter ? I'm only new to the world of the Winter Village, had to wait til I had my own house for space. Just finished building the train, next the station, then the Toy shop, Santa's Workshop, the Bakery and Fire Station. And now the Gingerbread House. This Lego hobby is gonna send me broke ??
