Very soon, the Peeron database will be linked directly to LEGO’s internal inventory database. This means that we will have the complete and 100% accurate data for every set LEGO has released since at least the early 80s, and to a much greater detail than before.

But even better, this means that inventories for NEW sets will be availalbe even *BEFORE* the sets are released!

I’d like to thank everyone at LEGO who made this possible, and the Peeron development team for working very hard on setting this up.

We hope this new data will be useful to everyone.

As much as I want this to be true, I’m leary about getting to excited, with the date. In particular this line here “But even better, this means that inventories for NEW sets will be availalbe even *BEFORE* the sets are released!” Seems too good to be true.
