 | | When will the Vikings raid the US? —Brendan Powell Smith
|
| | | I've been away on vacation for a couple weeks and a little out of the loop. Does anyone know if/when the Viking line will be available in the US? I searched for info on Lugnet but didn't find much. The Brickfest 2005 keynote speech mentions the line (...)

| | | | | (...) Hi Brendan, The Viking sets will be available on SAH and at Toys R Us beginning in October. At fest we all got a small leaflet advertising the sets at TRU in October. This was confirmed in Jorgen Vig's speech and when the Classic-Castle admins (...) (19 years ago, 20-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Hey Brendan, I've got no official word, but the word from Brickfest (which I was not at, so this is second-hand) was that these will be in TRU stores in October. I still think they will also be available through S@H, so I think "TRU exclusive" (...) (19 years ago, 20-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

|
| | | | | | | Thanks for the link, Bruce! I'm not crazy about the speckled plastic used for the boulders and armor, but the set designs look excellent! It bugs me to see so much Bionicle (in the dragons), and I understand it's all part of the same system, but I'd (...) (19 years ago, 20-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | (...) Brendan, As others have mentioned, the Vikings will be a TRU exclusive in October. Someone from Lego (I'm pretty sure it was Jake) said, during his presentation, that the Vikings would be available from S@H "by the end of the year". So I guess (...)

| | | | | | (...) I've also heard they will be showing up at the LEGO brand stores, hopefully before Christmas. I think the Vikings sets look just great, I can't wait to buy a bunch of them! JohnG, GMLTC (19 years ago, 20-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | Thanks to everyone for the info on the Viking sets. Looks like I won't be able to put them on my wishlist for my birthday in early September, but I am certainly glad to hear that these sets *will* be available in the US. Because, you know, they're (...) (19 years ago, 21-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Hey Brendan, in an aside on your Biblical scenes, you should do one of the Vikings landing at England's Lindisfarne Island and pillaging the monastery in AD 883 (it shocked all of Christendom). You could show the surviving monks carrying off (...) (19 years ago, 21-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I'm not sure I'll be doing any serious "asides" before I finish the Bible (circa 2013), but when I think about what non-Biblical material would be most fun to illustrate in LEGO, I do tend to think along the lines of "famous (...)
