    As you can see from the 'New at shop.LEGO.com' ribbon above, Monster Fighters have made an appearance at shop.LEGO.com in the UK. Whether they are supposed to have or not, remains to be seen. Better get your order in before LEGO changes its mind again, like they did with Star Wars two weeks ago...

Yay, about time really we got some new sets in the uk. I really want the hearse,castle and werewolf the most and the prices don't seem bad for most of them.

There's no Hollywood tax to pay, that'll be why :-)

Called Bluewater this morning and they're on the shelves as of today.

These look great, especially the two largest sets in my opinion. I will certainly be picking as many of these up as I can. I am very pleased with the price of the Hearse as well, I was expecting closer to £40 for that!

Bout time, I work for Argos and we have these sets in the stock room, but their not for sale yet, I've had to look at them everyday... now I can finally get them!

Still waiting for it in the french store :/

No sign of them at the Trafford Centre LDC. Shame as I was tempted to pick up the Vampyre Hearse.

This is awesome! Great news!
It's funny that the SW sets were put up by mistake on the UK S@H, the Australia S@H still have them!

Wow! I am very impressed by the swamp set - £5 :) I was expecting £8 but then I guess £5 is all its worth. The price is quite inconsistant with the smallest dino set though - I don't see what made that £4 more

That great vampire castle is really putting a crimp in my budget, I was only planning to get LOTR for the rest of the year... but Monster Fighters is really cool. Time to focus on getting big sets... but I love the immediate gratification of the smaller sets. =)

Very decent pricing for the UK, which is good news for me since I buy most of my LEGO from Amazon.co.uk. The full price for the castle in the UK is most likely going to be well below even the heaviest discount for it here in Sweden.. And with a bit of patience, Amazon will hopefully slash that price even further. Excellent!

So tempted! wondering if they will show up in Argos or Toys r us? S@H takes too long!

Interestingly just had a Lego club magazine through the post today, and it suggests Monster Fighters are a September release, so this could still go the way of Star Wars.

Im lead to believe that the September release refers to the 10228 Haunted House which is also in the Monster Fighters Range. Lego had told me last month that the Monster Fighters Range wouldnt be available in the UK until the beginning of August for which I was very annoyed considering its already been released elsewhere and I immediately took to Facebook to voice my disappointment.

Picked up two Swamp Monsters and a Mummy this evening around 7pm from Westfield White City/Shepherd's Bush. They didn't have many Mummy sets on the shelf, but had plenty of the rest.

Definitely not a mistake on the store's part to put the MH sets out today. This was the release date they told me about 10 days ago. I even posted it here on Brickset in another thread.

Definitely not a mistake for them to be released today - helpful assistant in my local Lego store stated they were due for release today.
