9V Wheels also offer less resistance than the 12V wheels. Don't bother going to
Lego Aus asking them for these, none in stock. They don't have anything, not
even the 9v electrical connectors.
Speaking to customer service today, Denmark does not consider Asia to be a
target for trains hence the poor range of items we receive here. If you can't
find any of the train items in any of the stores (TRU and Grace Bros are the
only stores I've seen with train items) they can be ordered through Lego Aus.
The customer hotline is 1800 683 100 (this is for New Zealand too).
Expect some changes soon with the arrival of another Lego Authority in Aus
around Septemberish, READ: Lego Direct.
