Yes, today I saw all six (I think?) sets at Kmart

    There are seven basic Designer sets.  Two different Robot sets, three
vehicle sets, and two animal sets.  There will be three Advanced Designer
sets (the large red/air, blue/water, and yellow/land sets), and four
Inventor sets (the ones based around motion systems) released as well, but I
can't say for sure that they'll all make it to Australia.

I can say I'm really happy that Lego has made these sets which are in line >with their traditional values of versatility and rebuildability.

bricks are glad to see sets that cater more to their building style, and I
can't speak for the rest of us, but as a Bionicle fan I'm really glad to see
a spread of sets that can satisfy everyone, so none of the current themes
have to be the "bad-guy" for causing the elimination of any of the other
recent themes.
I'm just happy for the ludicrous amount of click hinges :)  And indeed it's
good to have sets that appeal to everyone.

So bring back pirate sets, damn you! :)
(Yeah, I know they've got those ones at S@H, but what's a theme without the
little impulse buys out on retail shelves, eh?)
