yes I know, but it's meant to be part of the sale. It even says on that link "In stores June 28"
Be pretty annoying if they sell out before then! My wife went to a couple of stores last week and was also told they wouldn't be on the shelf until Thursday this week

Yup rang up last week and they said they will be available in store from 28th. Better not sell out as I will be going there at midnight

Crapola, I missed out on getting a VW Campervan, stupid course which kept me away from any Myers stores on Thursday!

I spoke to the staff at Carindale Myers, they had sixty campervans, 30 on display and 30 out the back and they were all gone by 11am Thursday morning!

Also spoke to the staff at Target Carindale, and they had 30 R2-D2s, there were 10 out front of the store in a trolley, some guy ran up and bought five of them! Needless to say the remainder were all gone by early Thursday morning as well.

Oh well...

I would say its one of the best if not the best kit.. amount of detail and the construction is incredible. Def my favourite kit so far. It even has real estate in me star wars cabinet....

You guys have convinced me.. I think the VW will be joining my all-technic collection very soon.

Not disagreeing that its a good kit, but I don't think anyone could claim its the best/close to it.

What about the UCS Millennium Falcon? & other UCS sets.

That makes more sense, i'll pass on sending my ucs falcon to anyone. No way i'd ever sell/give away my 2nd most expensive model. /know you were just joking.
