All the TS3 sets (including Pizza Planet Rescue) are now available to order on US Lego S@H.

Picked up Battle for Alamut, TS3 Garbage Truck, and Hassansin's Hideout (Desert Attack) from TRU.

Nice! 3 stories (including attic), interiors, and a mini tree house out back! Aw, I want it now.

Yes, very lucky folks able to order from Amazon France! I'm hoping to end up getting most of these...when they officially arrive in the US of course.

Other than the tail fin not having studs on each side, this model turned out a lot better than I initially thought it would. I really like that it can actually fit more than one mini fig inside (the whole point of a shuttle I would think!), unlike the RAS, and the retractable landing gear is big plus. Unfortunately, there are other equally expensive Summer SW sets that I want to get much more, so this one will have to wait until a really good sale.

France appears to be quite the center of Lego 2010 Summer Sets right now! I'm envious...

Very lovely! Much better than the "King's Battle Chariot", but I suppose it is the Queen after all.

Yes, I'm thinking the mystery bonus item/giveaway for those two days will be a sticker sheet with those characters. I'm guessing the announcement may be related to the new summer sets?

Ahh, as the review comes together, more is revealed! The cockpit seems small compared to the RAS--I'm wondering if it's a slightly smaller model overall as a result? Also, glad to see the play feature of Vader's medical bed...I'm anxiously awaiting to see if it really does come together automatically as the instructions suggest! That alone would bring the set up a bit in my eyes...

Wow, so those listings on Amazon.fr are the real deal!! Lucky French! Thanks for the early review. Beyond the figs, I'm not too interested in this set. It seems to share a lot with the RAS, as someone else mentioned, right down to the shallow interior. Looking forward to the full review (happy birthday btw), but I don't see my original feelings about the set changing.

Hm, do I get the Squid King book now, or should I wait for a magnet set? It'd be about the same price, but waiting for the magnet set will yield two other minifigs. Oh well, wait it is.

I love it for all the interesting little accessories alone!

Nice! Yet again TRU lets a Disney licensed Lego slip through a little too early! Congrats on being among the few public consumers able to purchase the set ahead of release and thanks for sharing the review.

That's just wild! Of course the detail and design of the clock tower is really superb, but what really takes it up a notch IMO are the great little details with the minifig "scenes". Very well done and I think your time and efforts paid off here. Great job.

Haha, if I had unlimited funds or if TLG just gave them to me all for free, I'd definitely do that!

I like the designs, but personally I feel like there are too many "Castle-ish" themes this year--with PoP and Harry Potter having very nice buildings in their lines, I will skip the Kingdoms main Castle in favor of Battle for Alamut and Hogwarts. I'll definitely pick up the smaller sets though.

It's hard to say what the final product is since there's no official word from DK or Lego about it, but I'm thinking a clone vs droid theme for the Lego Star Wars Brickmaster book is highly likely. I'm not so sure about what the models will be though. The existing books have been limited to 140 pieces total...

I forgot to add that the angled front of the train is really well done--yet another unique feature of this very well-engineered train!

Wow, where did you find minifig collection figures for sale? My Imperial Flagship arrived today!

Thats great! As a fan of both the game and LEGO, I like it.

They are releasing a minifig I've been wanting--Aayala Secura! Unfortunately, I have to buy the expensive new Turbo Tank this summer to get one.

Impressive scale! Lots of a great little details. Wish I had the space to do stuff like that!

Oh wow, that is really wonderful...exterior AND interior lights! And of course, the automatic doors are awesome! I don't have any Lego trains, but this really makes me want a train and power functions badly! I may have to break down and grab an Emerald Night from S@H sooner rather than later now!

Nice job on the zerglings!

Congrats!
