The sets are now in the data feed. I picked the yellow/red one up at the weekend in the LEGO brand store in Milton Keynes. It's actually rather good particularly given the price of less than £6 per car (including the 10% Brickish discount). A lot of nice curved pieces and no useless single-use parts.

Thanks to AJ Bellinger who has sent us an image of this forthcoming UCS set, which looks pretty good to me.

This was found on the Japanese Toys R Us site, and would appear to be a TRU exclusive.

The two LEGO Factory space sets can now be bought from LEGOshop.com in Europe. However they seem a tad expensive to me. At £70 (or €100 in Germany) for under 1000 pieces they do not compare well with Market Street, for example, which is £10 cheaper and has about 400 more parts. They don't seem to be available from LEGOshop.com in the US, but I suspect they'll be somewhat less than $150, which the exchange rate would suggest given the European prices.

Djsouthtown wrote to say that the coastguard sets are now listed on Amazon UK. You can see prices, but not order them yet.

An anonymous reader has sent us pictures of the new Batman sets. They look sweet, particularly the tumbler, which to fans of the recent movies, is probably the most recognisable Batman vehicle.
