Not sure. Trying to stay awake...I'm an old man and I'm usually asleep by now. Will likely do two Exo suits and the Research Institute.....but who knows. Do I really need two?
Research Institute is $19.99, just fyi!
I need a green spaceman army dang it! Two just feels lonely. Four at least feels like a gang

Getting the Super Secret Police Dropship with it. I was thinking Pet Shop instead as the Dropship will probably be discounted on Amazon and stuff eventually, but that'd just be too much for me to spend right now.
Also for those waiting keep in mind that the store changes over at midnight US Eastern Time, which is just under two hours from now. I've already got the Dropship in my cart and am checking the page occasionally in case it goes up early.

And I was logged in to the US region apparently. Arg. Exo Suit is $45 CDN, not $35 as I thought. Revising my plan....
Thatd be now and its not up.
50 more minutes of browsing youtube then. then i can go lay in bed and watch clone wars till i fall aslep
Still upset that right now I could be just about to hit Buy on an Adventure Time set or even a Zelda set but instead we are getting Research Institute... still a bad taste in my mouth.

it took nintendo like 20 years to figure out that making figure merchandise of its characters was a money making proposition. Even if LEGO wants to approve one, Nintendo will be like , nope, not interested in publicity cause we so stupid when it comes to marketing....

No spoilers... but after finding out what the end credits scene was for Guardians of the Galaxy I now have a new dream set in mind
I just finished watching and yes, the post credits scene rules.
Must buy Milano now. Movie was GOAT (at least for this year).
40 minutes til exosuit!!!

I'm thinking about throwing that Trike Rover I made up on the Ideas site, I added a small Mars Sojourner rover to it to make it a recovery mission, and I felt it needed a little something extra.
Do I actually need a physical model to qualify or whatever?

I dont believe so
You don't.
I'm sure the 10,000 unit run is off the mark, most are already on board with that... but it is still said to be 'limited' so we'll see. I know I want two so I'm just going to get it out of the way more than anything. If it turns out there's tons of these on shelves, I doubt i'll have qualms about getting a third down the road.

1201 and nothing on the US site. I'm going to bed soon and hoping to get one at my local store tomorrow

TLG, stop playing with my emotions.
Edit: no new Star Wars either.

It changed from Available August 1st to Coming Soon. Hmmm....
Or just stay up late.
We're up all night to get. We're up all night to get...

Well, this is getting a bit long for me to be voluntarily sitting at work. Think I'll head home and if I miss it, well... Will have save money, at least.

This isn't normal for midnight releases, is it? This is my first one so I have nothing to base it on.
Reluctant-Hero

No, not normal at all. Even the "May The Fourth" sales began at 9:00 pm, pacific.

Thanks for the info. I'm heading to bed and will just try my luck at my local LEGO store tomorrow.
Good luck to those staying up

They haven't even released the new wave of Star Wars sets either.
Which is weird since they had the new star wars in my lego store yesterday.
I bought some on the 17th, they've had them for quite a while now

I'm gonna stay up for another 20 minutes and if its still not up, I guess I'll head over and try the lego store tomorrow or something. Ah well.

This is ridiculous, right? This is my first "midnight launch" but this feels ridiculous. It's almost 12:30 eastern time.

I'm out of country, in Idaho, paid for a roaming pass with my provider so I didn't have to deal with spotty wifi and there isn't a LEGO shop in the state.
Fingers crossed it goes up soon.

We're getting pretty close to sleep time up here in Canada...I've got about five more minutes before I forever decry the entire concept of Green Spacemen.

Anyone know what time the VIP access for the Mini Cooper went live? Checking around the net (Brickset & Eurobricks) and people are saying that similar issue happened with the Cooper, didn't go live at 12:00 AM, eastern.

They wouldn't wait for midnight west coast time, would they? That would wreck everyone on the easy coast.

Well I got home fine it seems. I guess one can always hope for midnight central time?
