"Mister Simpson, a donut is not a sprinkle!"
classic :)
Mine still says 'Coming Soon on 1 May 2015'. Maybe they've forgotten I'm a VIP member?
I cannot add it to my cart, and I am logged in with my VIP id. I think that the promo actually starts tomorrow on April 15th.
wow 200$ is a good bit o money good thing I do not like the Simpsons!
Still nothing for here in Germany.
It seems to be available now, for those who are interested...
If you add to your cart it says now available,but when you click to check out and payment,page not found!
In Holland, you can order it now. Just did.
Yes managed to get it in the end! Hopefully as I've ordered early a quick dispatch will be great :D
As I write, it can be ordered via the UK, German and French links, but not the US and Canadian. I guess it's still early on the 15th in those countries yet so hopefully they'll get it sorted later.
this morning 15 April it's not available on lego.shop.dk with VIP log in. Will have to be patient...(it's a have to have *grin*)
10.29 h correct: now available! order placed!
@Clone, it normally is available in Lego shops too for VIP members, if you want to make absolutely, just give them a call.
I'm still making up my mind if I want this today or not...
To add to the price comparison among countries, it is most expensive in DK sadly with converted 228 Euro incl. VAT (which I get reimbursed :-)
Available for New Zealand now.
And in a Christmas miracle... Available in Australia on time (for once) and the order system ran smoothly.
In the pocket!!! Hopefully shipment won't take as long as the Slave I.
Doesn't work for VIPs in USA currently.
Update: The USA VIP access to this set now works... Too bad we have to wait until May 1st before they ship.
Just ordered mine ... got it for free with all of my saved VIP points. XD
It really is a beautiful set wether you like the Simpsons or not, but I'll probably wait till june and buy it at Legoland with 20% off.
Does anyone know what is going to happen on Lego Ideas today? They are going to have an update. I sure hope they announce a Lego Ideas Set for May.
The link for Canada works. Happy shopping!
@Sinthoras: I suspect they will do some changes / updates to the website's technology (possibly also design). The announcement on their website seems to indicate rather this than any 'content' happening.
does anybody have an idea when the second round of Simpsons minifigs will be released?
Still curious if it is stickered or printed. I'll be looking for reviews
Now available in all markets, AFAICT.
Guess who's not a VIP? Me, perhaps?
It's a bit pricey - great parts for my MOCs, but... A bit pricey. :(
@DanRSL - there is one video review on YouTube, I already watched It this morning. Some parts are printed, some are stickers. Printed parts are mostly milk and juice containers, magazines and newspapers.
Just had mine in France :-) now 15 days left for the new minifigs
@nudny
Thanks, that's nice to know. I was worried a few of the smaller tile pieces might be stickers. I'm guessing Japser in the freezer is a sticker, which I suppose is unavoidable. Hope not too much else is.
Ordered one,cant wait to see it.Its going to be an expensive few months with all the new releases and anyone know if WALL-e is definitely coming.
for anyone wondering apparently there are 60+ stickers on multiple sheets.
ordered mine this AM cannot WAIT! anyone spy the CMF series 2 in the wild yet?
Who needs the Kwik-E Mart? I dooooo!
Just saw this nice set in Lego store (Vancouver) yesterday afternoon, they have few sets available for VIP. Tempted to take home at first sight but wait until May with better polybag giveaway.
Picked mine up today, can't wait for the weekend to come now!
@ARSLOCK, there are 50 stickers.

Overpriced so not bothering. This is a £129.99 set maximum. It isn't close to as iconic a set piece as the house and car, it has less bricks and only has 1 previously unreleased new minifigure in the set. It's disgusting that they want that price for this. I bought the house and first series figures but now LEGO are just being lazy and greedy.
I got mine super fast from LEGO.com and started building right away. This is one of my favorite builds to date!!! I cannot recommend this any more highly. The details of the mini builds are amazing. So far I absolutely LOVE this set
I received mine from LEGO.com too and can't wait to have the time for building it.
Mine arrived super fast. Really fun build with tons of details.
Way to expencive. And why do the Europeans still have to pay 10% more than Americans?
($200 in America. For the same set in Europe, €220)
While the € is worth less than the $??!!??
Lego is taking the wrong path in this.
This is available in the Bluewater LEGO store. They also have one on display. It's pretty impressive. Series 2 Simpons minifigs also there along with Jurassic Park sets and the large scale minfig mugs, although only one of these left in the classic red.
