TheOrcKing Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 How can u tell?There isn't a disconnected 'seam' between the bottom curves that swirl towards the base of those tiny dome tops. Plus considering building mechanics and the molding process, it makes sense to design it as one new complete piece which is basically just a modified 1x1 circle stud.

Yeah if it were two pieces kids would have lots of trouble prying them apart. Parents would riot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eightbrick Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I think this is definitely the best Friends wave yet. Yeah, it would be a bit more realistic if the news van can didn't have pink and blue all over but the sets are just really inspired and for the most part the color schemes work perfectly (the beach house still looks awesome!).

This is the January wave (might be available a bit early or a bit late though). There are 15 items or so and normal Friends years have 30ish total.

I would believe at least the smallest sets followed by a couple of the medium-large ones will be available at the beginning of the year and then the remainders later on. I know Series 4 will (should) be out by January, Series 5 in May, and Series 6 around September. (Same schedule as the Collectable Minifigures.)

wholovesboo Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Did we ever figure out what MSRP prices are for the newest wave of Friends sets? I saw TRU had Sunshine Ranch for $98 in store, but that seems awfully overpriced to me. Even after $25 off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legomom25 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I built the lifeguard last night and it is great! Really a fun set and for the size fun to build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belljohn Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 I bought Sunshine Ranch at Walmart for $75 and Beach House for $35. The Juice bar was $35 at TRU ($25 retail?), but must be high compared to the Beach House at $35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm hoping LEGO Shop at Home puts up the new Friends items soon so I can get a sense of whether I'm getting a deal or not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought 2 anyway to add to the 2 $9 Fierce Flyers that I got to reach the $100 to get the $25 off. Not sure if that was a smart move on my part...probably just brought the JB down to MSRP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinemaps Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I found Sunshine Ranch at my Walmart for $70 yesterday. Snapped that one up. (Unlike the $90 I found at TRU the day before). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
