All,

Many apologies, but it was just pointed out to me that I made a mistake in my
keynote about the pricing on the new locomotive, 10133.

The correct prices are:

USD 39.99 (as mentioned in the keynote)

EURO 39.99 (rather than the 29.99 EURO I had in my keynote)

Sorry about the confusion, totally my mistake.

Hi Jake

Thanks for the presentation of the next train set (although the presentation at
BF was too late for me in the night), but I'm very disappointed by the announce
of the correct price :-(

As Gael, I'd like to react. Yes, we know that American and European markets are
not the same as you say at each Q&A, but I really don't understand the
difference between them.

I've some questions :
Why do we find any more LEGO sets on the supermarkets (in France) ? Why do we
find LEGO sets only on toys shops, and that, only when Megablocks don't take all
the place on the LEGO shelves ?  Why am I obliged to buy all my LEGO sets when
they are at their half price or on the *second* or* parallel* market ?
Maybe because the prices are *slightly* high ?

Why don't TLC react on this problem by adjusting its prices policy ?

I don't stop buying LEGO sets because of the new grey or the flesh color of minifigs by example. I will still buy LEGO sets for a while. But I'm very very disappointed by the gap between american end european prices. Please understand this feeling. I was really happy for this set and its european price, now I'm sad :'(   It's the same thing for each new set :(

Regards
Erik / brickerik
