Just as we earlier reported that the LEGO Disney Princess Elsa’s Sparkling Ice Castle (41062) have been spotted in various Target locations in the US, I’ve been told that you can now pre-order the set on Amazon. Like at other locations, the set will be available on January 1st with pricing at $39.99 and is also eligible for FREE Prime shipping when the order is processed but may take additional processing time. Thanks to Chris for the heads up.

Update: Sorry folks. Apparently the pre-order option has been taken down after 30 minutes of this post going up. Don’t be fooled by the third-party sellers that have prices of $100+.

Here’s some news that many of you have been waiting for. There are now reports of the LEGO Disney Princess Elsa’s Sparkling Ice Castle (41062) starting to show up at Target stores, most notably in the southeastern states. They might not be on the shelves but the stores may already have shipments in the warehouse ready although they may not be able to sell them. Some of the sets have even shown up on eBay at outrageous prices. For some lucky few, you could possibly find the set in stores before Christmas. If not, it will be widely available on January 1st. There’s a slight chance that other retailers like Toys R Us may release it early as well. I’ll let you guys know if I see them on the floor waiting to be shelved.

Elsa’s Sparkling Ice Castle (41062) is probably one of the most anticipated sets of 2015 but many wondered why LEGO doesn’t release it for the holiday season to catch in on the Frozen craze. LEGO CEO Jorgen Vig Knudstorp in an interview has noted that, “It’s not so important for us with Frozen.” He also added, “It is definitely across all categories a very strong property, a wonderful movie, but for us, it’s a minor thing.” While the set may not make the best-selling toys list for 2014, it may be a contender in 2015.
