Here's to hoping the Kakapo makes it! Also, am I missing something about
that safe? I was not expecting that one to be that popular.

Neither was I! But then my partner showed me that you can set your own working
combination for it, and I understood why people like it. What's most surprising
to me is that the Bionicle set probably won't be made.

Yep.

Once again, it shows that LEGO does not know how to manage their IT infrastructure
to handle roll-outs of in demand items. Will they ever learn?

If it's the safe I think you're speaking about, I believe it's functional.
I only wanted to get the castle set so I'm not entirely for sure though.

Wow what a horrible experience. Nothing would work.


When I FINALLY got sets in my cart, it was the wrong amount, when I tried to
change it it emptied my cart and now I can't buy anything at all.



No sets for me I guess. Very disapointing.

Why are sets limited in volume per region?

Europeans can not pre-order sets like the shipping vessel that is amazing!

Is this the new way Lego provides sets to all?

I hope the digital instructions will be downloadable in 2022 .

I managed to get one of the Castle in the Forest sets but I rushed in headlong
without thinking. PayPal charged my card for the amount and I managed to wait
just long enough to see that my shipping address was correct and that it went
through but I closed the page on LEGO's site and I haven't received an
email for my purchase so I'm a bit worried. I was not logged into my account
and have no idea where I'd go or how I'd be able to see it.

Was also confused to get no E-mMil at first from Lego confirming the order. Paypal
E-Mail I got like 5mins after the order.

The Lego confirmation I got ~ 1 hour later.

So its working and we can relax (hopefully)

And with being able to buy five at once, you don't even need that many buyers.


In any case, I don't personally care about the program or want any of the
sets. I was just mad that I was trying to get work done here and the site was
unreachable.

The moment it hit the hour, the site started crashing for me. I've not even
seen DDoS attacks that bad before.

Yep.
