  Is the 8455 available in stores?
 
Hello all technic fans! Quick question: Is the technic backhoe 8455 available in stores (in the US or germany) or is it an exclusive shop at home item? Thanks (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic)

I haven't seen it in my area, but I have seen some of the smaller Technic sets (Front-End Loader, Dump Truck, Forklift). I'd imagine we'll see it in stores over the winter months. Probably at Toys "?" Us, then later at your general merchandise (...) (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) It is available in stores in Australia too so definitely not S@H exclusive. ROSCO (21 years ago, 29-Sep-03, to lugnet.technic)

It's in Sweden as well. I'd say all over Europe and Australia, US should have it? I recall some of the rtlToronto (Canada) guys bought it locally in a store, but that might have been a special order? (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) It's more like a hard to find set. It is not a shop@home exclusive but it is very hard to find. I have seen it only once at a local Toys'R'Us here in Ontario with an MSRP of $149.99 CDN. I also saw the Rescue Truck for $99.99 CDN. (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic)
