Statement: LEGO Apollo Saturn V (21309) ist nicht ausverkauft

Die hohe Nachfrage nach dem aktuellen LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V (21309) Set sowie dessen Verfügbarkeit im Handel ist auch bei uns im Blog immer wieder ein Thema. Im LEGO Online-Shop werden interessierte Käufer noch immer mit dem Hinweis “Nicht mehr auf Lager” vertröstet. Auch die schwache Verfügbarkeit bei Galeria Kaufhof, ToysRUs & Co. lässt die Situation nicht besser aussehen.

Um weiteren Spekulationen hinsichtlich eines möglichen Ausverkaufs der Saturn-Rakete zuvor zu kommen, hat das LEGO Ideas Team bereits gestern im offiziellen Blog ein Statement veröffentlicht. Demnach sei das Apollo Saturn V Set keinesfalls ausverkauft und werde auch wie geplant weiterhin produziert. Man bitte allerdings um Verständnis und Geduld, da die Produktion von weiteren Sets eben auch Zeit benötige.

Anbei das Statement im Wortlaut:

It has been over a month since the official launch of the LEGO® Ideas 21309 NASA Apollo Saturn V set and the overwhelming popularity of the iconic rocket has unfortunately meant that some LEGO fans have not yet been able to purchase their set or have had to wait longer than they had hoped.

Unfortunately, rumours and speculation have arisen concerning its availability, which we would like to shortly address.

We Are Continuing To Produce More Apollo Saturn V Sets
Having just launched the Apollo Saturn V set recently, we will continue to produce the set according to our scheduled plans and we would like to re-assure everyone that it has not been retired.

While the set is temporarily out of stock through our online shop, with limited quantities available in LEGO Stores, our production teams are working hard to produce more sets in order to make sure that everyone will be able to purchase their copy. This does take time however and we therefore ask for your patience. The product page on our online shop is continually updated to reflect current availability, but if you have questions regarding your order you’re very welcome to contact our Customer Service.

We would like to thank you for your continued support of LEGO Ideas, and we cannot wait to bring you more exciting sets designed by LEGO fans.
