  Re: 8431 Sold Out -- "DISCONTINUED", says SAH!!!
 
(...) Thanks for checking this out, Adrian. I'm not surprised by the response considering there would probably be some expense in moving the stock around across regions. Does anyone reading this thread know of any precedent for a set being available (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  What a downer :-(
 
I got my 2003 SAH (US) cat the other day, OK new years eve, and was left rather disappointed. In the past, I've viewed the January catalog as a benchmark for the year followed by the Summer one. But God help us all, this one just plain stinks for (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)

(...) It's only sold out in Canada and US. With some luck for you "over there" S@H might ship a few more to US, they are on "Availible Now" status all over Europe and Australia/NZ and not "Call to check" so there must be a bunch left? Best regards, (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)

  8431 Sold Out
 
Dear LEGO Direct, Is 8431 sold out for good or is this just temporary? On SAH they show it as being sold-out and I was surprised there wasn't an option for back-orders. I decided not to worry but today I got my SAH catalog and I see 8430 but no (...) (22 years ago, 31-Dec-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)
