Ditto this side of the Atlantic.  When I contacted SAH (US) to inquire, • I
was told the US price would be around $120-130.  My immediate reply • when
told was "WOW!  That's cheaper than the Silver Champion I paid $170 • for!"

Who knows?  Maybe it's something they learned when they did that big • price
cut earlier with the 8466.  Cut the price and more people will buy it.

Well, for the folks in Australia, it's listed on the S@H website for our
country as "Available Now", although at $220 + $80 s&h it might be a • pretty
expensive buy, even though it has a lot of pieces for that amount of • $$$!!

X-posted to .loc.au so Australians can rejoice too!!  [And plan more • credit
card purchases!!  :-)]


All good and well, but if the parents wont allow purchases on S@H, then
what? (Serious question.)

Does anyone have any clues, ideas, ANYTHING??? About when it's coming out • in
australian stores??? I am DYING to get my hands on one- I am so glad I
didn't buy the Silver Champion...
As for a pic, go to www.brickset.com and search for "8461". It's a really
good pic that I put on my desktop.

Glad you like the pic, I scanned it from the UK catalogue.

8461 is now available for order from S@H in the UK, I ordered mine last
night @ 99GBP (US$153, AUD$277)
