aaarr.. sounds like lego tastes like lego but baby it's discontinued!
Maybe this is lego's way of testing the water ,With Germany being one of
lego's large markets that is why it's only on that German site ,maybe before
bring out bigger more popular sets only to find ,no one wants them because
there one of lego's favourite sets not the peoples, but with the way lego is
done business I could understand them trying to make a quick buck on
discontinued sets.
