I was in the Lego store at Milton Keynes yesterday and they had several of them on the shelves which kinda weird as you would have thought that Lego would recall from their own stores first.

these have been corrected. look for double seals. unless you mean recalled for filling the online orders. seems TRU got a wave of them with stickers saying "only at TRU"

I'm not too sure that the fix for the head rotation problem has been implemented yet.  If it had, I think some LEGO fan blogs would have written a story about what the fix is, such as any substituted parts and change in instruction manual.  The double seal is probably for the hinge piece that supposedly was too weak.

Why prices not going up...)

The sound of my stomach with maybe a clunk at the end.

Poof - That didn't last long.

Looks like TLG has finished fixing Wall-E because it's Available for ordering again!

Just received a brand new Wall-E ordered at LEGO Shop at Home NL last Friday (27th of November). The seal-code is: 47S5 so this one was produced just 2 weeks ago.

Today I played observer in the Legoshop here. Many people picked that little boy up. Lets see if that thing stays exclusive to Lego...could be a nice earner when EOL.

Here, it´s not an Exclusive like Bird was. Still, it should do well if the lifecycle is short. Problem is with all the dicking about regarding the neck, they will probably extend its life.

So, it was you!? I almost called the police on you.

Wee! I can't wait for my new one to arrive. I ordered it just to build myself but I might have to grab a few more if the build gives me the warm-fuzzy feeling of elegant design.

Just got my backorder for LEGO Shop at Home US, it has 3 seals on it, the two outer seals appear to be a 39R5 over the top of a 33R5, the middle (3rd) one says 47R5.

So week 47 is the minimum guarantee for the neck fix, it would seem. I wonder if the original ones will fetch a premium - you could have snoozing Wall-E and fully charged Wall-E together.

I'm curious, why do you think a lesser product would fetch more money?
