jonnyhanukkah Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 In case anyone was wondering, yes, Amazon does ship the Porsche with the outer Lego box. Came in minty fresh! Now to decide if I should QF or keep and build (bought it with credits/GC on Amazon for a total of $200 plus tax). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would keep the box and manuals in a safe place so they stay minty . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fenix_2k1 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 I did originally think that this would be a nice qf at xmas but with it being stocked everywhere and with new xbox, new ps4 and new ps vr coming out this year I don't think this will be top of xmas lists the way i thought it would when released.

Eric83 Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 That QF window closed about a month back when virtually every large retailer got them in stock. It was fun while it lasted.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Porsche is a VW company and probably under the same licence as the Camper, Beetle and Audi/Porsche Speed Champions, I would expect this set to be around for a very long time and I expect much bigger discounts in the future. It's far from exclusive and Technic (a turkey theme?) so I'm only buying one to build when it's cheap enough. It's too big a box to store long term IMHO and the QFLL window has closed.

In the US it´s 2x VIP which does strange things to people´s brains. In the UK, it´s 25% off at Tesco and that seems a fair price for personal build for the impatient. For those that are waiting, might suggest taking a look at Chabel´s 919 LMP1 on Rebrickable. It uses mainly easy to find parts and has a proper, working sequential gearbox using a fraction of the parts in 42056. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB is a 20 euro set, maybe less when every man and his dog is flooding ebay with them, so Amazon/Smyths are probably better for larger sets and the 10 euro off coupon makes more sense for sub 100 euro sets. Tesco´s 20% off plus clubcard points is still a better deal on the Porsche. Edited October 2, 2016 by Val-E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 My nextdoor neighbour recently paid £186 at John Lewis using Flubit and it got delivered in a proper box ready for reselling! I'm happy to wait until it's <£150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the one Caterham I think as nothing could beat Asda's recent deal on Dr Who (£28). I wouldn't be surprised if the tenner off expires before midnight.

Voltron Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 (edited) 1128 stock remaining at John Lewis at £199.99 I think chances of a Xmas qfll is very slim as everywhere is slightly selling this now at £200. Next set please Edited October 2, 2016 by Mhd747 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
