  1. Oh ok, I guess the park could just be a big set as opposed to an exclusive, Or maybe even a winter Lunapark??? While the other set (as you say maybe a mini) could fill the final exclusive spot.
  2. 4 creators? I counted the Parisian, Maersk ship, 2 star wars ones, Simpsons, Movie and a (almost) definite winter set making 7. Usually we have 8 (one every other month plus an extra at the start / beginning of the year. So we can really only expect one more and the 2 licence themes are filled (if you count the lego movie), So we are to expect a big creator set (quite possibly a mini?) and unfortunately not a tumbler. Cheers
  3. Some interesting info including price and release date here- http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2014/02/14/guardians-of-the-galaxy-movie-lego-sets/5483097/ Also lists figures and piece count.
  4. When i try to do this under the order it says 'missed offer tc-4', Im not sure whether to risk an order or not...
  5. The excusive wont be another tumbler, We only have one remaining exclusive gap this year and there is a good chance it will be creator. Also we have 1 dc Exclusive still on the shelves so if we are getting another superheroes exclusive it WILL be marvel. I'm afraid the UCS tumbler does not exist. Cheers
  6. Hi, Sorry but the cost of post to Portugal would probably take half my profit, so it would cost about £15 or so to have them posted, I can get a quote if you are interested.
  7. Hmm that is a very interesting point, I did a few calculations and got some numbers, Say we take the average brick to be the good O'l 2x2 which has LEGO printed 4 times on it, As there are 19 billion bricks produced per year since about the turn of the century (lets round that down to 13 years for fairness sake. so that,s 19 billion x 13 giving us 247000000000 then that is x4 for our average brick (though it is likely more), Meaning the word LEGO has been printed 988000000000 since the turn of the century. That,s one trillion Eighty eight billion times. I'm not sure how that compares to other words but i think that's a pretty nice thought. EDIT- I have now found there have been 400 billion bricks produced since 1958-2008 , So going with our average 4 times per piece that means LEGO has been printed 1600000000000, Then adding on another 5 years to 2013 thats 380000000000 more times making the total 1980000000000 (one trillion nine hundred and eighty billion prints of the word)
  8. You sir have made my day. I will certianly be getting one of these beauties at such a steal price! Its great to hear more details of the set and i have no doubt its going to be a top buy.
  9. Hi everyone, I Just received a couple of Lego orders from S@H and was given 2 free Emmett polybags. As i don't really need them i may as well send them on to someone who can put them to better use. They usually sell for £6.99 on eBay so i will go £5.99 each or both for £10.

  10. Hi guys, since the leaked pics a few weeks ago have we heard any more news on the sea cow? I have been vaguely watching the thread but haven't heard anything. Normally for a large exclusive a press release would have been shown by now. Maybe it will be done tomorrow coinciding with the (official) movie release date? Cheers
  11. Ok thanks. When is this going to be available?
  12. Hi, Sorry if im being stupid but what is this exclusive FOR? Is there some special release of something i missed? I'm usually good at this sort of thing but i seem to have missed something. Anyway whatever its for I would like to see a winter soldier figure as we will likely never see one otherwise, Or if we want to be really outlandish why not the collector?
  13. Did anyone save the picture? If so can you send it to me.
  14. Hi everyone, Just about to make an order from S@H (UK) and i noticed neither of the promos is showing up I'm pretty sure with orders today we should get police buggy and a wylsdtyle poster, But nothing is showing up. Any ideas. -My order is pretty large so covers all minimum order limits.
  15. Also i just realized, A lot of AFOLs complain about repetitiveness in set building, How many complaints are we going to hear when people spend $200 on a set and end up putting about 2000 almost identical tan bricks to make a large cube... EDIT *Prism
  16. Hooray for Plutonium rods!!! Anyway i doubt i will pick it up but it is a nice change to see something like this, As far as i can tell it is modular-ish size, But will be a standalone (like the HH) A little bland for £150+++ though. I think i will pass in favor of other sets.
  17. My guess is that they will do it Iron man 3/ Man of steel style, With 3 sets of each theme with matching price tags (1 £40,£20 and £10 for each theme)
  18. Actually it's in between the two, There were 5 members http://static4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080316203115/starwars/images/8/84/ModalNodes_play_Chalmuns.jpg (you can see one standing behind)
  19. Bear in mind that image looks pretty early in development, Just think back to the marvel set when we saw a yellow and green preliminary figure for electro, Then he turned out to be blue with transparent arms. A lot can change in a little time...
  20. That does sound possible, However it's strange that every year as long as i remember they have released all the sets on the 1st yet this one year they change that. It's now the 2nd and there are still missing sets. Very disappointed.
  21. Yeah i noticed it was running a bit poorly, I'm sure they will lose business by not listing half the superheroes sets when they should be out.
  22. AT-AT is a disappointment, But thankfully i got the Walking one back in the day. Star destroyer looks good though so providing the price is ok i will pick one up.
  23. Hi everyone, There is most likely a topic to cover this sort of thing but i cant seem to find it. So if there is MODs feel free to move this over. Anyway I just wanted to note the release of sets on S@H (in the UK at least) has been very different to usual. In the week between christmas and new year new sets have been randomly appearing in groups of about 5-30 per day. There seems to be no logic to there releases and themes were often split up (E.G 4 star wars sets one day another 5 the next and 2 the day after) and Also a lot of new sets have not shown up (man bat attack, Riddler chase and Kashyyyk battle pack that i noticed) Normally S@H just releases all the new sets at 0:01 on New years day and avoids all complication, So what is the meaning of this absurd new system that blatantly hasn't worked? And will we be getting the gaps filled in soon? P.S it's not that the missing sets shouldn't be out yet as other sits of the respective lines are already here. Just seems odd to me. Thanks in advance -Joker
  24. Agreed, However it does seem strange to change the system after all this time. Also what do you suppose the price will be, I guess it could range from £150-£200 (do we think more or less than orthanc??)
  25. Well that was sudden, I'm not sure quite what i think of this. Its not exactly want i expected but its pretty awesome in its own right. No green lantern though. Some very odd details on there so im a bit lost at the moment...
