There's a couple of Forest Police Stations at my local (Wellington) Jabba's Palace was there too.

Man, that will definately rack up the costs. Where do you buy your 9v straights from?

So what did it cost in the end? Tempted to order at least one for now; and pick another up when Toyworld (or whoever) get them around April.

Where did you end up ordering it from?

Has shown up now. Will keep an eye on it to see if one comes up!

Doesn't seem to be on the website at all now, let alone in stock.

Would have grabbed one R2D2. Damn :(

Lol.

Erm, because it crashed..

Hobbit sets starting to pop up around the place. Have seen them in store at The Warehouse and Toyworld. Was hoping they would be on The Warehoure website by today to take advantage of the online deal.

And that will work just fine.

The current PF system of tracks are certainly compatible with the 9v system, in terms of size and physical joining. Obviously you can't run your 9v trains on the new tracks though, unless you also convert them to PF.

Hi folks, from New Zealand. Same situation as most people here, grew up with LEGO. Favorite sets as a kid were the Freight Rail Runner and the Monorail, both of which are still at my parents, be it with parts missing. Now getting back into collecting. So far have picked up VW Camper, Fire Brigade, and the Grand Emporium; with the Maersk Train currently in the mail from the States. Will shortly be picking up the Unexpected Gathering and the Horizons Express when they are available. Would also love to get a hold of the Emerald Night too, but it's very hard to find in NZ :(

It's been sold out for awhile. I've been keeping an eye on it and have now had to purchase through Fishpond. If they would still ship it here I would have grabbed a couple with the free shipping deal.

Thanks for that. Will have to go check out Toyworld in Wellington.

Where have you seen the red cargo train at $220?

Cheers guys. My flatmate is off to Honolulu tomorrow for a week so I am franticaly thinking about which lego she should bring back for me. Limited back space doesn't help the decision!

Hey guys, just signed up. After constructing the VW camper last week I'm hooked on LEGO again. Haven't really constructed anything since I was a kid. Keen to buy a few sets. Where is the best place to buy the Town Hall, Fire Station and Maersk train? Fishpond seem to have them quite cheap but I have heard mixed reviews about them. May take advantage of the free delivery from the Lego online store. Cheers
