‘77 PONTIAC® FIREBIRD® - HKF85
Finally a new real big one with small car.
The Big Foot was more a 50$ one.
Looks good, will buy it, i hope i dont need to import again but i guess i will have to.
Mod Rod And Mouscle Bound dont show up here in Germany like the purple passion.
Same goes for a lot Wonder Builders Hot Wheels.
There are 3 new instructions out for TIGER SHARK CHOMP COURSE - HKF88, SMASH & CRASH RACE ACE™ MONSTER TRUCK - HMM49, BONE SHAKER™ CRUSH COURSE - HKF87
So sad and the other new small ones are already released ? Have them only seen online at Entertainment earth and the Camaro on Amazon.
This bad distribution situation really makes me think not to buy thease sets. I dont like to pay double ot tripple, because Mattel is not able to deliver the sets.

Oh this set (Firebird) seems so hard to get. Only for sale in Canada and Japan?
Is someone here able to get one or two sets and ship them for Germany?
Oh and the Demo derby wonder builders seems hard to get too.

Oh and the Demo derby wonder builders seems hard to get too. The US retailer Target has July 30 as the release date but they'll take preorders. I wonder if German retailers will similarly start to receive some of this item closer to that timeframe?

Oh did not know that. So chances are good US ppl can buy em at target. As for the release in germany, well we did not get Mucle Bound, Mod Rod and Purple Passion i had to import them aswell. Ok i will wait maybe it shows up. Did you have informations about the Masters Eternia battleground Set? I did preorder at mattel creations. Oh i still look for the Demo Derby Monster Truck (not smash and Crash version). |

I just saw this Firebird on the shelf at Target today for the first time, $80.99. It occupies the same spot where the Bigfoot models did until recently. Because, of course, you can only have a limited number of Mega products on display, while stores will bend over backwards to fill more shelves with LEGO.
Kind of pricey, which follows Mega's years-long practice of releasing a small number of cool but prohibitively expensive sets, in an apparent effort to drive away new customers and impulse buyers. The last thing we'd need is an affordable set that a parent can buy for a kid on a whim. Heck no! Let them spend their college savings on it!
Anyway, I expect that the price will come down somewhat during a future sale/clearance. Still, looks pretty cool in the box.

Yeah release is now in the US. In Germany we wont get it. Its a good looking car, only the window in the back is builded and not looking good. The car is rather small, the width is like the 50$ ones the lenght like the 80$ ones.
A lot good prints, bronze and golden bloks and the tires are real great. Front lights and side mirrors are printed.
If you compare it to Rodger Dodger and Bone Shaker then the Rodger Dodger is the better deal from size.
However its a kit i did spend more on but seems worth it.
