elmaslıefendi 443 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 21158, 21159 & 21160 are fire. Sometimes I have a feeling about MC sets... and I feel like these will do very well, especially the Illager sets as they're modular and fit to the Village. The panda set is just ultra unique. Well done, LEGO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
$20 on joe vs dan 1,286 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) OK, I still don't see the attraction of the game (my boy just started playing and I really don't get it) BUT I am finally figuring out why the LEGO sets are so "molten" hot...and has been The sets are like modulars...that all fit together into the individually designed world of the fan (which I guess is the obvious appeal of the game as well) [is there even a SINGLE MC set (ever) that is not at least x2?] Edited May 13, 2020 by $20 on joe vs dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Try playing in Survival mode yourself for an hour and I'm pretty sure you'll be hooked. Yes there are MC sets that did not make it to x2 (I assume you mean RRP). Most infamous example is 21122 Minecraft The Nether Fortress. Only recently made it past RRP, now going for $100 on AMZ (RRP was $80). Set retired 3 years ago. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Shortbus311 721 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Hadn't seen it mentioned, and not sure if they will be 2020 or 2021, but just noticed 3 new minecraft sets listed as coming soon on shop at home. Abandoned mine, trading post and bee farm.The trading post and bee farm look like winners to me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MotorCityMuscle 271 Posted Thursday at 02:04 AM Share Posted Thursday at 02:04 AM Outside of the older sets, how well have you all done with Minecraft recently? Keep seeing retiring sets pop and wondering If it’s worth a gamble on a few. Just not sure if the kids are still into it. Don’t feel like I’ve heard much out of the Minecraft camp in awhile. But again, no experience with the franchise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But again, no experience with the franchise. Kids are definitely still into Minecraft. I have a feeling that this is what drives parents to buy these sets: they know the kids like Minecraft but they want to pull them away from the computer for a little while. In my experience over the last 3 years, I've never had a Minecraft set disappoint. Even 21122 Nether Fortress eventually turned things around. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
freakchem 135 Posted Thursday at 05:09 AM Share Posted Thursday at 05:09 AM I found Minecraft is just like a gold mine as Architecture sets. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shortbus311 721 Posted Thursday at 05:19 AM Share Posted Thursday at 05:19 AM Minecraft is still just as popular as it has ever been, at least according to my 7 year old and the kids in her class. As far as Minecraft sets go, I think they all do fairly well, some better than others. It seems like the $75+ retail sets don't appreciate at as high of a % as the lower priced sets. Bedrock Adventure has been a relatively disappointing return compared with some of the less expensive sets, which doesn't bode well for Creeper Mine. I think the sets in the $30-$50 RRP range are the best bets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So maybe these are really best to wait until there is a significant discount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zskid00 2,201 Posted Thursday at 03:49 PM Share Posted Thursday at 03:49 PM Creeper Mine was doing great when TOOS everywhere this holiday. I expect it will do just fine once retired, though it's all about when you sell. There may be 90+ sellers, some of which you'll need to wait out until the price is right. I expect the sales ranking will be pretty solid though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you like them, I'd get them if you see them for 20% off, or with some sets, buying at regular price isn't bad either if you are trying to build up stock. Often, the 20% off is a permasale that lulls you into thinking it'll lower and it never does. I have definitely regretted holding off on Minecraft sets until it was too late and I could only purchase a few scraps because the price never really dropped beyond inconsistent clearance others may have found.
