The most powerful rocket ever flown is blasting off in LEGO bricks this June! #LEGOApollo

 

I took a chance on the Target stock this morning, got shipping confirmation.  I only want the set for my collection. my only concern is it may be a return or the box will be badly damaged.  Since it is for personal build box condition is not super important but I still like them nice.

I doubt they had 100 returns come in this morning. There were 99 available (at least).

Smartarse, I had forgotten to use the "June" code for the tote bag with the order I made today, so I called to have the bag added.

Re EU market:

I've had a set on backorder to ship to the UK since June 2nd that was originally supposed to be fulfilled mid-June. LEGO CS said it should ship July 20th:

Thanks for getting in touch with us.

We anticipate that the item you inquired about, set 21309 LEGO® NASA Apollo Saturn V, will ship on 07/20/2017. Please note that all back order dates are subject to change.

Occasionally, items are out of stock making it necessary for us to place part of an order on a backorder status. In stock items are shipped immediately and backordered items are shipped as quickly as possible as they become available. Shipping charges quoted when orders are placed are divided over all shipments needed to complete order.

Please accept our apology for the backordered delay, and our assurance that you have not been billed for the item(s). We received pre-authorization to bill your credit card at the time you submitted your order, but billing never occurs until the product ships. It's so awesome to hear it's a gift for a rocket scientist, I hope they enjoy it!

We want to make sure we're doing a good job for you, so you’ll always find the link to a four-question survey in our emails. Please tell us how we did today:

Please let us know if you need anything else.

Kind regards,

Dakota

I know some of you have been thinking about the launch tower for the Saturn V.  Here it is on the Lego Ideas site.  One of the same designers created it.  You can't complain about a repetitious build when it this cool.

I feel sorry for all of those people who backordered by 5-7 of June in Europe, hope they will get their boxes delivered before Christmas.

*poof*

For those still looking to buy this set, no worries. It will be available soon enough w/o sell-out worries.  For example, Exo-suit, UCS Tumbler, Research Institute, Scooby Doo Mystery Machines, Cinderella's Castle.

The flip profile margin is drying up.
