G'day all,

After a couple of days over the past weeks having been spent 'fishing' for
lego info for Australia, I have returned with the following information:
(NOTE: all prices are the RRP and are in $AUS. For $US prices, $1 AUS =
$0.50 US approx...for Aussies, this should help give an idea of what
box-size the sets will be.)

Trains: nothing new this year :(
Castle: nothing new this year :(
Town/city: nothing new this year :(

Alpha team:
6771: $5.95
6772: $11.95
6773: $19.95
6774: $39.95
6775: $59.95
6776: Not available (?)

Harry Potter: (October release, no set names known :( )
4701: $12.95
4702: $19.95
4704: $44.95
4705: $44.95
4706: $69.95
4707: $69.95
4708: $110.00
4709: $199.00
4721: $19.95
4722: $19.95
4723: $19.95

[I'm not giving out the name(s) of the store(s) I gathered this information
from, as I don't wish for the stores, and consequently the customers of
these store(s) to be disadvantaged as a result of this. needles to say, the
store(s) were NOT the one(s) most of my purchasing occurs at, as I have no
wish to lose my good suppliers :) ]

I hope this information is of interest to some out there,
