Just to confirm my thinking... are we expecting the UCS MF to be up for sale at midnight tonight on the online store?

I am. Hoping there is an email to let us know

I really don't think you'll have any issues at all long term. Stock issues for this kit will likely exist up to December this year and then level out after Christmas. It's a flagship kit so will be around for 2-3 years I expect. It's not limited edition like the original.

Yeah I can't see me not getting one, gives me time to save up the money. My plan is the hang it on the wall, as its quite big. Only place I can store it once built. I had to do the same with the Porsche 911 GT3 - that got hung on the wall, its easy to lift it off to play with - not that anyone does lol

Mf is available from 07.30 tomorrow morning

 

[DampCat]

Right when I arrive on set

Yay. Can buy it when I wake up.

Didn't make trip to London, was looking at it but by time I'd get there would be over 100 people

I'm glad it's on sale at 07:30 tomorrow because I mistakenly thought it was last night and stayed up until midnight

 

[robin66]

I'll have to get up early then.

Lol you daft sod

 

[413x]

I'm gonna be Sat with my laptop at 720 tomorrow morning. Annoying launch day as probably won't get it until next Monday

 

[Dis86]

Same. I think I'm coming down with something next week

Lol you daft sod

Haha I was all ready, Mrs.Rufus had gone to bed at our normal work-night bedtime (around 23:00ish)... I stayed up playing Civ V for a bit waiting for midnight... When the time finally came I thought "huh, the store is actually coping okay... but why can't I buy it yet?" after about another minute I had that sinking feeling, checked here and on Reddit... ****... Skulked into bed about 00:05 and Mrs.R sleepily says "did you get it?"... "no...just... just go to sleep"

I've actually got the money spare for the Falcon but still can't justify dropping that much on a set of LEGO.

Also I really need a new mattress. Sharp pieces of plastic or something soft to sleep on!? :s

Buy the falcon and just get a cheap air bed for now.

You already have a mattress, but you don't have a Falcon, therefore you should buy the Falcon

 

[DampCat]

Hard to argue with that.

 

[Bickaxe]

You can build a bed out of lego, can't build lego out of a bed.

Email confirmation normally take a while to come through, but mine has now appeared on my account as in process. I went for 3-7 days shipping so hopefully I don't get shunted down the queue!
