@rtisan Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Brickset posted a link saying that the set was available. I was just reading it now and thought "oh goody, it`s early!" then I realized oh wait, they`re in the UK haha. /smashes face into desk. Quote

It's a link that Huw will have set to appear on the site automatically at 00:00 here. Set currently not available to purchase on Lego's website anywhere worldwide, so off to bed. Will check if they've updated it in the morning. Quote
hobbycrafter Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Curiously groundbreaking news. Called a local LEGO store, rep said that due to complications the Exo-suit will not be released tomorrow, Aug 1st. (Research Institute will though) I know they have received the shipments, but the reason it's not going up is because...an app?!?! There's some sort of app that's connected to the Exo-suit, and because they are having issues getting that to go online they are unable to sell it on release date. For those who got the Exo-suit early in the UK, was there anything indicative of this in the instruction manual or any other sheets in there? Special codes or something? Perhaps this was also why LEGO Shop at Home was down yesterday. Quote
legone Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 hours the first go around, less in subsequent rounds Thanks! I am going to bed. This can take till 02:00 hours. I will try again in the morning. Good night. Someone give a few sleeping pills! Quote

baldilocks Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I spoke to both lego LEGO Shop at Home and my local lego store. They both said the exo suit will be available tomorrow Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Thinking about going to Birmingham this weekend to pick up some of these and anything else they have. Quote
Taco Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 So is this really a must buy tomorrow? It won't be around for a few weeks at least? Quote
DirtyZ Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Mini mini probably won't be around for a few weeks Quote

exciter1 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I called lego store in CA, they said limit of 2 in store I think Weidman would knock them out, all while Matt Serra is yelling "shoulder pressure!!!" in the background. Quote
holleman67 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I went to Arundel mills mall in Maryland and they refused to sell me any Quote
Guest brickcrazyhouse Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 was there yesterday and was told both the exo suit and research set are a "hard" release of aug 1st, will be back tomorrow work permitting Quote
jharrison Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Got the same response from the Manager at my Lego store this weekend when I asked if I could quietly purchase a couple. Unlike the new Star Wars sets (i.e. Mos Eisley Cantina) that they already had for sale, the Exo-Suit couldn't be sold until Aug 1. I interpret this as another sign of a limited availability and thus good long-term news as an investor. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 was there yesterday and was told both the exo suit and research set are a "hard" release of aug 1st, will be back tomorrow work permittingHuh huh, huh huh, you said "hard". :lol: Quote
Mathew Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Huh huh, huh huh, you said "hard". That's what he said. And if you can envision a lanky, dweeby, twenty-something "kid" wearing a yellow apron then it's even funnier. Quote
