eliminator Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 My 2x castles are still showing as "backordered". Are they still sending these out or am I SOL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should ship out at some point. All of mine went from back ordered to shipped in a month or two span. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$20 on joe vs dan Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I haven't gotten my castle either...and I ordered in the middle timeline. I did get two other items so there's progress...maybe they are hoping to wait it out and hope folks would retract their pledge so they have more sets available for markup-Up-UP!!!

Bricklink marked down their sets to other Bricklink sellers to then markup. Just to be clear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcandre Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I got notice today that my castle is being prepped for shipping. I ordered one of the last 10 on the last day so looks like they are wrapping it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eliminator Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Same, finally got my notice for 2x castles today. Guess this is the last wave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jedi Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 My two castles have shipped as well. I would say there were 500 - 600 sets left when I ordered mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BricksBrotha Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) Hot shot & Lego Story arrived safely. If there is another round of these builds to purchase, I think we'd all agree the shipping/communication is a place for much needed improvement.

CosmicSpeed Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Funny, I got my last two I ordered in the last week available, just a few days ago. Doesn't seem to me like they went by order date on the last wave. Fire Truck and Hot Shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlasticDude Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 This video make me think they will have a ton of extra pieces, also wonder if they will more than the initial allotment. ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Legorical Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Thanks for sharing. i don’t think there’s anyway they can go over the 2500 limit. Bricklink are now two companies, BrickLink HK Ltd, registered in Hong Kong and Bricklink Corp registered in California. Bricklink Corp appears to have been created for the ADP sets, which means they own the extra sets and parts, they also have studio shop on BrickLink Ltd Being separate entities is probably how/why they got suspended! Could they possibly sell the extra parts thru Studio Shop? I don’t think there is anything to stop them selling parts, other than the fallout would likely do much harm. Or maybe they’ll sell off to a local large store... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DadsAFOL Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 LEGO kept tight control of this project. No chance of additional production. And the parts... well just picture the final scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Most likely the parts will never be seen again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a road trip could be quite fruitful... it’s only 4600 miles round trip for me ?. Handy if your close by tho... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isawred Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 watching the video now..... very interesting! creates mixed feelings: from shear amazement to utter disappointment... 1) second coolest place to work!!! 2) only ship 2 days a week?!?!? either way i am thrilled to be out of the dark ages and look forward to future LEGO endeavors, both financially and physically! note: as i re-read what i've typed i couldn't imagine working for bricklink... while the concept is super cool the pace/progress/motivations/inspirations/overall is lack luster.
