There are reports over on Reddit that the upcoming LEGO Ideas WALL·E (21303) set has been delayed for a few weeks due to a “quality issue.” I’ve also gotten a message from a reader who also works at a LEGO Brand Store and they have said the same thing. From my message, they also said that “something was not up to LEGO quality they they missed.” I’m not sure what this quality issue is about but I’m wondering if it is part of the top neck joint area that makes the head unstable and won’t stay in place as I stated in my review. I’ll try to get some more clarification and how long the delay will be. The set was scheduled to be released on September 1st.

The Disney D23 expo is going on in Anaheim and LEGO has just officially revealed the LEGO Ideas WALL•E (21303) set over on their blog. If you’re going to D23, you can meet Angus MacLane at the Pixar booth for some signings and at the LEGO Ideas panel. There’s not much new information as we already had some of the images and description from Amazon a few days ago. The set will be available at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home on September 1st for $49.99.

Build, display and role play with WALL-E! Construct the LEGO Ideas version of WALL-E with posable neck, adjustable head and arms, gripping hands, opening trunk and rolling tracks. Build a beautifully detailed LEGO version of WALL-E -the last robot left on Earth! Created by Angus MacLane, an animator and director at Pixar Animation Studios, and selected by LEGO Ideas members, the development of this model began alongside the making of the lovable animated character for the classic Pixar feature film. It has taken almost a decade to perfect the LEGO version, which incorporates many authentic WALL-E characteristics, including a posable neck, adjustable head, arms that move up and down and side to side, plus gripping hands and rolling tracks. With a trunk that opens and closes, you can tidy up the planet one pile of garbage at a time! This set also includes a booklet about the designer and the animated Pixar movie.

The new LEGO Ideas WALL•E (21303) is now available for pre-order on Amazon. It retails for $59.99 and will be available on September 1 so I assume that LEGO will be officially revealing the set soon. There’s something interesting about the description. It states “set also includes a booklet about the designer and the animated Pixar movie” so does that mean the movie is included or is the booklet about both the designer and the movie?

Update: And it’s been taken off Amazon.

There hasn’t been much information about the new LEGO Ideas WALL•E (21303) since it was accidentally revealed back in June until now. Korean LEGO community BrickInside has somehow managed to acquire the set and has done an in-depth review on it, albeit in Korean. You can still translate the words but the most important things to look at are all the pictures the OP has provided. One thing that I got out of is that it says the release date was September 1 although Smyths had it listed as a December release so I’m not sure which one is correct until LEGO officially reveals it and provides the details. Below are some of the images of the LEGO Ideas WALL•E (21303) and there are a lot more in the link above.

Update: Sorry folks, looks like they jumped the gun on the review and have taken down the post.

Earlier today, the official images of the new LEGO Ideas WALL•E (21303) set was publish on Smyths Toys website. The set was designed by Angus MacLane who also worked on the movie and his project on LEGO Ideas garnered enough support in the eyes of fans as well as LEGO to have this set be produced. WALL•E (21303) is listed to be released in December and has a retail price of €57.99 which corresponds to about $39.99 here in the states. It isn’t certain but that’s my guess for similarly priced sets and it could be as high as $49.99 considering it’s a licensed set.

Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it. I did see it this morning and sent out a tweet from my phone but didn’t have a way to do this post. What do you guys think of the set?
