Phew.....Glad I stayed up and managed to get my orders in. Been waiting a long time for this.

40704 Micro Ninjago Docks is also available in the Insiders reward center for 2300 points.

Just bought the Red Dragon's Tale, but sadly not seeing the promised 'free download' PDF of the adventure, only the printed version for 2700 points... Was that changed, or is the PDF coming later, or is it only for D&D Beyond users?
(It's still mentioned as a free PDF for Lego Insiders on the D&D website, but not on Lego.com)

the printed version of RDT’s already sold out (might just be in Australia/New Zealand?) so uh unless it gets restocked I’ll have to settle for the PDF

Also rerun of 40681-1 available with Modulars.

Many thanks!

I ordered the D&D set and the printed RDT! The mimic dice box - which I'm looking forwards to - will be included as well as the floral trellis - which interests me not at all.

I'm thrilled that LEGO and D&D have teamed up. My wallet, not so much.

I'm in the UK. I ordered the printed version but gave serious consideration to just getting the PDF and having it professionally printed using a print-on-demand service. It would have cost me about 40% less than the Insider points are worth as a discount. Is that an option in ANZ?

Also from Insider rewards NINJAGO® Zane's Dragon Power Vehicles available for 500 points.

By in United States,

Just downloaded the free PDF but the question remains: do I get the printed book? I just can't decide!! I'm a big D&D guy, but the equivalent of ~$22 USD, I just don't know.

Either way, super excited for this set!

By in New Zealand,

While some of the sets are cool, i’m not interested in any of them except 21348, which I won’t get because of it’s hefty price tag.

The Batman set appears to be sold out already at the certified stores here. Crazy

Thant's 400 points cheaper than 40703

I hope it doesn't take long for someone to share the instructions or at least the parts list

In the US, the DnD printed book for 2,700 points is live a few minutes early. FYI.

By in United States,

I dont buy a lot of sets on day one, but the D&D set is a must have, and the Mimic was a dealbreaker to get it on day one! So happy I got Red Dragons Tale, the Mimic, the flower trellis set, and cashed in my Micro Ninjago City code, so overall good purchase!!

Thanks Lego!

Can't wait for the minifigure set!

It’s at the very bottom in collectibles. Or it was for me.

@TheLastJedi:
Right, there it is. Just past the coins. That won't ever go away, even though it won't let me get more.

By in Australia,

How appropriate for 1st April.... a premium set does not have an 18 page booklet included. The instructions alone total several hundred pages and they couldn't include the printed booklet for purchasers of the set.

Now that's a joke!

By in United States,

2,700 points for an 18-page booklet… and possibly printed like a LEGO catalog? Oof.

Fully agree! Charging basically an extra 23 euro's for the adventure on paper, which is part of the usp of this set, is just extortionate...

The mimic gwp doesnt do it for me either. Fortunately in 3 months this set will be available everywhere. I ll wait for a sizable discount on amazon before purchasing this. But to end on a high note, i do like this set :)

@Huw the threshold for the Flower Trellis is stated as £135 on Lego.com.

D&D, Mimic, book, download, and Docks are all mine, ALL MINE!!! Go consumerism! Booooahahahahaaaaaaa!! *_*

Oh, and that lame, half-assed trellis part box. ;p

Just got on the Canadian Lego platform and the mimic 5008325 is shown as 'not currently available'.

Question: can you not just print out the PDF on some cardstock or similar nice sheets of paper?

I’m not seeing it in the US store anymore either when the D&D set is added to cart

Gravatar
By in United States,

Added the Red Dragon's Tale to my cart at noon EST, and the mimic must already be gone. Only the trellis set shows up in my cart. :(

Gravatar
By in United States,

The Mimic GWP has disappeared from my cart as well, 12 hours into Day 1. We'll never likely know, but I imagine this recent trend of Near ZERO availability of GWPs is more so to do with limited production of these highly desired GWPs and less so to do with historic amounts of early ordering.

Shame, LEGO. Shame.

GWP availability may be geographically bound. Just ordered in France and got the 5008325 mimic added in my cart

Yes. I snagged a code for the print edition, and also grabbed the PDF download, and if anyone in my LUG is interested in running it, I’d probably just print out the free PDF vs opening the fancy print version.

@gilgalas:
It is, to a degree. I know NA and EU availability are strictly separate, but I don’t know if US and Canada have to fight over the same stock, or if all of Europe does either. And as always, Oceania gets straight up shafted on this sort of thing.

Gravatar
By in United States,

I caved (cave trolled?) and picked up 21348 at our local LEGO store this morning, along with the two GWPs. Once folks confirmed with math that the mimic will hold more than 2d6, I started to feel some real bad FOMO. When I saw the built-up set in the store, I was impressed by its size (better for justifying the price), but continue to think that it's a bit of an aesthetic mess. Looking forward to building it, one way or the other, and playing through the adventure module with my kids!

By in United States,

Im guessing LEGO made an extremely limited number of the mimic sets despite the wanton popularity of the set, but typical LEGO. I hope by brother got it last night and did not miss out of the mimic box as it sounds like those will be pricey on eBay.

Gravatar
By in United States,

Ran out to the Lego store as soon as they opened this AM to be sure to get mine. If you're talking to a non-gamer you may have to use the actual words "Dungeons and Dragons" or they may no know which set you're talking about.

Looks nice, and I scored a mimic box.

@ForestMenOfEndor:
I finally found my tiny dice, so I’ve got two full sets (7 dice each) of polyhedrals, plus an extra 3d6, all 17 of which should be able to comfortably fit inside that box, with room left for at least one finger if you’re not careful.

Ha! I need some of those tiny dice!

I placed my order for Red Dragon's Tale and got the Mimic Box. While relieved initially, my updated order details state the Mimic is still being processed while the remaining order is confirmed in the warehouse. I'm in the US, so I do hope my order will be completed.

I placed my order right after midnight, and have the same thing. It’s normal for sets that large to ship separately from GWPs to prevent damage, but the flowers are lumped in with the main set. Now, I know they have at least two main shipping warehouses in the US (MS and IL), but maybe the Mimics, being yellowbox, have to be hand assembled in Enfield and shipped in yet another box.

I will second (third?) this... if you weren't able to secure a 5008325 Mimic Dice Box GWP online, you should try your local LEGO store. Mine had (what appeared to be) an entire case (still full!) under the counter of 5008325 GWP when I was there this evening.

Nope. They've collected payments from too many people, and they've been building this up for over a year. If it was all just an April Fool's joke in the making, people would descend upon Billund and destroy everything.

Same here called customer service and was told that the mimic boxes won’t ship until the 4th (the official release) and that customer service only found out a couple of hours ago. Explained my disappointment as I wanted to have everything for my son this weekend - set, mimic, book - and explained many others would be concerned to see their sets ship and the mimic part of the order be ‘in process’ she said there were many calls and apologized.

Very poor GWP forecasting from Lego - it's only the second day and it's not available. That's me not buying this set for the moment then!

The stores tend to have the GWPs in for longer so if you live anywhere near one it’s worth a call

The EXACT thing happened with me when I called Customer Service. And I'm willing to bet there are more orders than mimics.

At least four members of my LUG have received the main set and the printed module by now, and it looks like the Mimics have started to ship _early_ this morning! I got ship notification before 3am.

By in United States,

The giant Tim Minion model definitely was, and a member of my LUG informed me of a multi-corporation prank to claim TT Games was making a LEGO
Ghostbusters video game. The roundup is often delayed a couple days so everyone can get a chance to experience the prank as intended, and then everything can be disarmed before people start thinking it’s all for real.

Happy to report mine came at noon today alongside the 2 GWPs and the printed booklet. I am a happy bunny!!

And the livestream has wrapped up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GkSDchj7uE

In the seating order, on the left is the fan designer of the set, on the right is the actual designer of the final model, and the three in the middle are affiliated with the Critical Roll series. I suspect that was a conscious choice, as they were all a lot more expressive than the two on the wings.
