ED-209 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 The fact that you guys are saying if it will do well and looking to buy some from retail outlets just shows how big the US Lego market is. Here in the Aussie market it barely made it to a few retailers, with only a couple of drops last year. By the time it retired last year, all stock in the wild was virtually gone. It is now selling here for 2x RRP. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because we also don't have an official LEGO store in The Netherlands, the only way to buy the Birds set in The Netherlands was through the Lego LEGO Shop at Home site. Cheapest you can get it now is for €80 which is about US$ 90... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scatterbug Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 A great example of how different the US market is. I'd happily swap out Super Heroes for Birds sets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkbait Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 If you can find it at TRU, and use the 20% off coupon in the beginning of the TRUTH thread, it should come to sub $40. It is available on TRU online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toys R Us: in store with 20% coupon and discounted GC from eBay would get you around 30 ish and a free Ninjago. easier...buy $100 Babies r Us GC from PayPal Digital Gifts on eBay for $85 (6.80 back as eBay bucks) buy 2 online at toys r us for 42.99 ea and used discounted GC works out to just below 40 after tax not counting ebay bucks and free Ninjago.

This set is just not for kids, and like architecture sets, it will perform about the same over time. Lego needs to make more sets like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHunter Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I agree, Birds are not for kids, its for display not play, some parts are delicate and will come off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martae54 Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Did the $85 GC deal twice .. So after eBay bucks cost me $78 ish For $100 for each card.. Snagged two birds sets fromTRU online for $92 after tax on each order.. (all stores are sold out near me).. Leaves me with $8 on $100 card that cost $78 ..So that is $35 a set!! Sell the 2 flyers and get a little bit more off..not to mention Rewards earned fromTRU.. Thanx guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are some sets that lego offers that caters more towards an adult market. Architecture line is definitely one of them, and i'd say sets like Birds fit the criteria. When I go into TRU and see birds next to all the other sets like ninjago, superheroes, etc, it just doesn't fit as well. It's one of those sets that makes more sense in the puzzle section of Barnes and Noble or Books a Million. Hence, it has more of an adult appeal to it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
