I have that set too. It is tiny next to the new one.
Dang, didn't realize how big the new one is.
I have the original, it felt pretty unwieldy already.

No dice at Barnes and noble. Damnit.
Fml.
Anybody in Canada has experience with ordering sets from the official LEGO online shop?
Any ideas which shipping company they use and how long it takes?
I know that it takes forever when ordering loose bricks (my order has been in Poland for a couple of days now) but I don't know if it's different for full sets?

Lol. Puts things in perspective.I have that set too. It is tiny next to the new one.
I've ordered quite a few and they've always used FedEx, which takes about a week from the ship date to major Canadian cities (it ships from the USA).
Yes, ordering bricks and pieces is a whole different animal.
Shit I hate Fedex... Oh well

My pain of missing that shuttle set only grows at that pic.
The shuttle looks kinda terrible next to it too...
Way too blocky (pun not intended...)

Will they make this set for awhile? I am a HUGE space nerd and a big lego fan but I can't afford it ATM.
The anxiety of missing this set is killing me.

I already have it but I just wanna see how fast it sells out lol
It's completely broken. Can't log in. Can't find anything, can't add to my cart. And now the Apollo won't come up in searches.

Hopefully they do another one down the line, with a better looking nose cone. Other than the front of the shuttle it looks fine to me.

Does anyone have a direct link to the blue pieces/ I have no idea how to search for them...
Same, but it kicked me out of verify payment.

I can't even add to bag... I hope they have a lot of these sets.

fuck it gonna try before work at this point. im up too late for this bullshit
Mine just went through as well. Hopefully. My card has a pending payment, so, at least they'll take my money. Keep trying!
It will probably be for sale for about a year based on previous Ideas sets IIRC
Sometimes the retirements come outta nowhere though. I'd say you're safe through the end of 2017 though for sure

Yep. I think I even got the blue pieces too, assuming the site didn't fart out on me. lol
What blue pieces?

The ones from a page back that make the set more accurate because of the fuel used.
I wouldn't have gotten them if not for the free shipping that you get with the set anyway. lol
They are using red studs for the engine plumes for Stages 2 and 3.
The real Saturn V was burning hydrogen on those stages which was more of an almost invisible blueish flame.
So we're buying individual blue studs just to replace those flames lol
Check out previous pages on this thread there's a bunch of discussion about it with the exact pieces ID if you want to buy them.
I have no idea how to find them. I looked up the names, and the numbers. No joy. Anyone have links?
