If it does then I hope a lot of buyer that use LEGO's website will start shopping elsewhere. Us Brits are getting really tired now of that "Brexit" word. For all we know, it may never happen.

That Kussenberg woman needs to look for something to talk about other than leaving the EU.

On a side note am I the only one disappointed in the Space/NASAcentric Lego Ideas there are plenty of better options

BTW... When do you think Catalonia will apply for Spexit? ;-)

Probably before Saturn V retires, however they are playing at suicide by cop, so who knows?

This looks like a great set for £19.99

With this set being added to the ideas line up, does it mean one of the current sets is on its way out?

The DB is superb value especially with 2x VIP and the VIP polybag - not bad for £78. I actually prefer it to my Black Pearl.

I know that's tongue and cheek, but we're not going there _at all_ ok?

I'm only tugging Val-E's chain... How about a no-holds-barred Politics thread?

Given the state of politics in the world, I don't see how that's relevant to LEGO or a good idea.

Fair enough, feel free to delete.

Women of Nasa already available in Toys R Us in London and probably elsewhere (TRU country wise). 20RPP and bonus polybag.

Nah, it's good.

This set is going to be gold this xmas ... I've seen a couple people on my Facebook feed mention it. Might as well call it RIv2.

Well....this set just hit the morning news here in Colorado!! All aboard the hype train!!

Ride, Sally Ride on your mystery ship,
Be amazed at the friends you've got there on your trip.

Be aware of the world others just might have missed

local npr radio station (which includes enfield CT in listening zone) had a brief blurb about it yesterday and no doubt there will be a big national story come release day.  nytimes front page here we come and start up the money printing presses.

Just heard about this set on the Christian music Stan my wife listens to. It also popped up in the Facebook "news" feed a week back.

Oh yeah! That's great news! Going to London tomorrow for a week and was hoping I could buy it there for UK price during my visit before going back home!  

Any other tips (private message?) for me where I could shop for Lego cheaper than Dutch prices?   I already have planned to visit the Leicester Square Lego store and get Assembly Square and the Lester minifig (as many as I can) there. But other stores with good prices or special deals are also welcome.  

Shame that TRU have them first (supposedly), a friend went into the new Reading branch this afternoon and they didn't stock them. Anyhow, I'd rather give my money to SaH than those r-soles at TRU.

So we got some hype going, now if we can get some CEOs to chime in on the credenza worthiness of this set, I'll be convinced.

We don't need hype, this set simply speaks for itself ;-)

Just been into my local TRU in Lisburn and there was no sign of them there. Was looking one for a personal build.

 

I didn't think highly of this set in the first place but those product images changed my mind. It looks great with cool minifigures I desperately need now.

Does anyone have a UPC on this yet?

Based on the constant sale, I would say TLG desperately wishes Adventure Time would show itself out.

wtf.  message to target IT - put down the vape pens.  i've got money to put to work here - sheesh.

I´d check their Women of Nasa page - maybe there is a very nice surprise of a Saturn V for 25 USD.
