Retired Product Update Thread (2014-2017)

10245 retired in Europe

 

[Voltron]

42039 Technic 24 Hours Race Car

71013 Minifigures Series 16

 

[Ma-gic]

42039 is a great set. Unfortunately too widely available and at good discount. Probably will end up with the same fate of 42000.

[Voltron]

Alot of retirements in UK, notable ones:

60080 City Spaceport

75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium™

21305 maze

[Therightbruno]

MAZE also retired in BE, that's very fast - this one will be interesting to watch the coming months/year...

Looking forward to seeing how the IST comes along. Gotta get past the QFLL's who bought it for peanuts at Tesco last week in the UK first though. For a low-scale BrickPicker, I've accumulated quite a few of these.

I'm also waiting for the QFLLs to exhaust their Spaceports and Friends buses before I stick mine on at the "proper" price.

The spaceports are scaring me. They have been available in the U.S. at target for ~45% off all weekend without a limit... Either people aren't interested or they have WAY too many.

I actually agree, I think this thing must have been a terrible seller all around - It's been clearanced at various places for 6+ months at 50% or more, and as mentioned, still at 50% Target isn't moving them.

Could be a... dare I say... TURD. 

And I have plenty.

They can't all be winners

A Spaceport bought for £11.33 certainly ain't a loser! It's actually a very nice set and shuttles have done well. I reckon this could reach RRP within 2yrs.

Among the raft to have gone: 10593 - Duplo Fire Station

Nice surprise retirement. Got some of these at 70% off from Sainsbury's earlier in the year.
No great point in holding on, so hopefully an easy flip in time for Christmas to free up some much-needed space.

I'm just wondering how many of those Spaceports being bought at low prices from UK QFFLs are going to end up back on the market down the line.

Let's hope it's just some existing stock in a final push.

 

Many are actually out of stock when you try to order them.

I have ordered two pet shops in different orders as I have missed them last time...

This means no new run.

Let's keep this thread for retirement announcements.  There are other threads to discuss the potential of specific sets

[BP]

These went out quite fast? 

All the other seasonals are still available.
