Val-E Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 It´s going to set a record as a short run for large D2C sets, making Joker Manor seem like the Death Star! Overhoarding should not be an issue but a big discount would be desirable to offset the risk on a set with a niche audience. Quote
iahawks550 Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 Appears to be sold out at Amazon... For now. Quote
waddamon Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I think it is an awesome set and bought two from Wal-Mart at the discount. Problem is I have 10 metal beards ship which is an amazing ship and it isn't rocking it, which is disappointing. Quote
FM Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 It's back up. They had about 150 units yesterday when I looked, then OOS, now they 'found' another 425 units today. Could this mean they wanted to test the waters yesterday, see it sold through and released more at the same price knowing they don't have to discount it further? Perhaps I'm overthinking this.Sent from my moto g(6) using Brickpicker Forum mobile app Quote

I dunno if there will be a window or a brick wall for this set - it´s 50/50. Quote
waddamon Posted October 27, 2019 Posted October 27, 2019 I know I did, but I was holding out for more. I hold for 100% net return. Sadly it isn't there, yet Quote

Expand After giving it some over- thought, I've restrained my itchy clicker finger, It's been a little lower, maybe lower again, I'll hold... for now. If stock dries up quick though I may change my mind. Quote
Voltron Posted November 30, 2019 Posted November 30, 2019 Did anyone in UK manage to order this from Lego online when it was 30% off couple of days ago, as was showing as OOS from the get go Quote

Expand This is funny! I loaded up on these at 35% off and they're selling like hotcakes over RRP. Nobody could have known about such a short run though. Only 60 listed on BL, this is a joke right?

Bought mine at almost 45% off, so that's not an issue. Docks doesn't feel massive enough imho, I don't feel it. 70840 really is the best big box exclusive we have rn just due to the low quantities. There's only like 13 listed on eBay here. In comparison there are over a hundred NCs. This thing will do great, no doubt! Quote
dennugsmello Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 Ahh. Cloud City hit $200 in the States. That was my bite. On 12/12/2019 at 11:02 PM, elmaslıefendi said: This thing will do great, no doubt! Expand I hope your right! Quote
