Just bought 2 from local Lego store in Columbus with gingerbread house. (Also bought 2 seasonal minis to get over the $100 threshold for the GBH). My first 2 of this set so glad about that.

Awesome! But at this point, I would be more excited about getting a gingerbread house than the Raptor Escapes. Regardless, nice score!

Careful. People 'round these parts count $5 as 1/20th of $100...

Or see $100 as 1/1 of $100.

For sure.  I finally bought my first Ferris Wheel (my favorite set of LEGO) because of the Calendar and GBH.

I don't know if this set is still hard to find, but the Sacramento Lego store has 8 on the shelves as of 5 minutes ago.

I will buy as many as you see at this point. Who knows how large the Feb run will be and if Walmart order more of this.

I would be really surprised if Walmart received any in 2016...

It is retired in Europe. So why would it come back in the US?

If it comes back in February in the US only I can ask my friend in the US to bring me a couple. They are small and will fit in a suitcase easily.

Lowest BIN in europe now 90 euros so at 40 USD a shot, why not?

pm'ed you.

Because Lego like to do regional retirement. No doubt JW was a big hit in North America this year.

All the Echo and Charlie dinosaurs must have escaped from Lego´s German warehouse.....

Ive sold 20 RR this week. JW seems to be doing pretty well over here as well, RE's retirement was a big surprise to me.

Only 1 EU ebay listig below 100 euros now. Looking very good.

Be flexible if you want to sell. I just sent 14 to Japan shipped direct to the same buyer NOT using GSP.

Yes, I went back and bought the 7 after I sold those.

Sold out in UK , no major store has it. Wish I had bought a few when I had chance .....lol

Where my local WM's keep finding boxes upon boxes of 22R5 is beyond me... Restocked a few that i sold in JW bundles this season  

Just leaving this here for posterity...

hmm. I'm not sure whether to bite or not....... 

TLG still hasn't updated their stock status for this set. It remains at the Sold Out status.

Too late, they are gone. 

Poof glad I got some

I guess those were just "found stock" which WM is good at doing.

I put through a fair number of orders. Hopefully they fulfill the orders. In my parts these were NEVER stocked at walmart. 

I also believe this will be a very good investment.
