Tomorrow is September 1st, which is the official release date of 71043 Hogwarts Castle. I know it’s been available from LEGO Online for VIPs but tomorrow will see the set released at both the Dreamworld LEGO Store and LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Melbourne. Here are the details on what each of those stores are doing.
Dreamworld LEGO Store
The Dreamworld LEGO Store will be opening it’s doors at midnight tonight so you may want to make your way there some time today. I have spoken to the store manager and he advised that there was a good amount of stock available. This isn’t a situation where they only have 5 of the sets or anything like that. I’d still suggest getting there early.
LEGOLAND Discovery Centre Melbourne
While they aren’t doing a midnight launch, LLDC will be opening early tomorrow morning at 8am for fans looking to pick up a set. Again I have been able to confirm that stock levels look good and plenty of people will be able to get their hands on a set. It’s hard to know how popular this will be so I’d still suggest getting their early.
Are you a Queenslander planning a Gold Coast camping trip, or a Melbournian set for an early morning? Let me know what your plans are.
G’day & thanks for updating us all about this opportunity. Any idea if any of the Aussie retailers will be stocking this fabulous set? It would be great if Big W did but I can see them balking at the price. Maybe Myer? Cheers.
