Btw., could it be that in the big set this piece is used?

You can just go to your store and ask there for the 2009 catalog and get to see it?

Great stuff in there, it really fills my expecatins now. Already pre-ordered it several weeks ago, can't wait to get it. Not sure yet if i open the doors in order or all at once though

I assume that means you already have the calender? Would you please be so kind to do a review? I'd be very thankful

Yeah, thanks for the picture, but i still can't see there much more than a bad piece of modern art or something

FOOD!! So it seems we'll really get something medieval market-like. Alright, so i'm also getting it..wait, i already pre-ordered it! as far as it comes to shields, there only is a skeleton one and also no knight shield, or am i overseeing it?

Can't actually see much there But good news, in the next magazine there'll be more pictures!

Thsnks very much for ther link! No interior as i expecterd, but some great building techniques are going on there. Also this thing is really HUGE Maybe i'll get it when i have more money...

Definitely the best garbage truck ever, the color scheme is great and the design is awesome. Outstanding, without a doubt. I must have it sometime

Yes that sucks, and i think we should do something about it, like sending a mail to TLG or something else. I really don't get that "exchange course" they have, it's absolutely wrong. How do they come to this? I don't get it. Everywhere else in the world everything has got a normal exchange course with the exception of lego.

It IS out, that's what this thread is about

Metallica - All Nightmare Long

And yet another strange exchange course of TLG. I really don't get that, this just can't be right. Do they think people in europe are more rich because the euro is more worth than the USD?

I really can't understand why people are bashing so much at themes in which some kind of monsters are included, or better in which the storyline is based on human vs. monsters. What's the deal? Lego is still a toy after all, and that means everything is possible, it's just the same as with music or painting a picture, everything that's in a mind is possible. How boring would it be if everything was just about reality? What is it all without imagination? Think about it. And as the above poster said, you can't really say anything about the sets from these pictures, you can't even see the individual bricks themselves there, and which pieces are used, etc. etc. So just wait for better ones and then tell your opinion.

Just wait for better pictures. And btw. every lego theme deserves an index, even if it's the worst shit ever. There are always people who like things and some how don't like them. For example i think technic is the most senseless theme ever, but i don't bother.

Does anybody know why the instructions still aren't online? We almost got them early for every set this year, but not this time. I'm very interested in the building technique and on what is inside the garage.

Wasn't there some years back a film based on aliens in the arctic? Can't remember the name and i think it was really old, but there certainly was going on something with strange creatures and a polar base

Thanks very much for this great review TheBrickster! I love the Arctic sub-theme, but unfortunately i never got my hands on any of the sets, since this theme had its time during my dark ages. This one is a really neat little set with a great amount of accesoires, especially these snow shoes and the backpack which i love

The cars are awesome, but i don't know about the garage itself, seems to not have too much interior. I'll wait till the instructions are up or somebody made a review, but in general it's

Not today but already last week, but anyway: 7774 Crab Crusher

@Kenobi: Finally someone who also likes the sets, i already thoght i'm alone. @highland: aqua raiders isn't an usa exclusive, i just bought a set off the shelf at a local store here in my town a few days ago. anyway, i think people don't do these new sets justice, by just seeing the bad pictures and immediately thinking the sets also are bad because of that. You can't even see what some of the sets really look like, you don't see what accesoires are in the sets, and you don't even see how the monsters look like at all. so let's wait for better pictures, but i can already say i'll buy some of these just because of the color scheme

Seems i'm the only one who likes the power miners sets

I voted outstanding, because i think this is the best cement mixer TLG ever made, also love the 6-stud wide based vehicles, as you mentioned. I both bought and sold it again this year, and i already regret it, but i had to sell some stuff because of a loss of space

If you look closer, the sets actually have many aspects that the ones from rock raiders also had. The difference is, that these new ones are much better.

I don't know, but for me that looks more like sand green, like the big green trolls are.
