Train and only now seems worth the effort at $40ea. 40530 Jane Goodall - Ebay shows roughly $30 in the recently sold 40531 Lars Homestead - Ebay shows roughly $50 in the recently sold 40532 Vintage Taxi - Ebay shows roughly $38 in the recently sold 40533 Cosmic Cardboard - Ebay shows roughly $28 in the recently sold 40562 Mystic Witch - Ebay shows roughly $25 in the recently sold 40563 Tribute to Lego House - Ebay shows roughly $25 in the recently sold 40564 Winter Elves Scene - Ebay shows roughly $27 in the recently sold 40566 Ray Castaway - Ebay shows roughly $33 in the recently sold 40567 Forestmen's Hideout - Ebay shows roughly $55 in the recently sold 40577 Harry Potter Grand Staircase - Ebay shows roughly $75in the recently sold 40579 Eiffel's Apartment - Ebay shows roughly $75 in the recently sold 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenb99 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 only 10k initial quantity on houses of world for US stores, that is super low depending on how many are in later releases. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the same amount as Halloween Cat & Mouse? There have been at least 3 production runs globally with the US 10K being 743R2/144R2 as well as 37O2 and 43O2 so probably 30K. The “VIP only” has done more to limit eBay availability as the usual sellers that had 100+ Santa’s Workshop have had 0 - 4 of House. So I guess Lego stores in FL are not allowing outright purchases. I don’t see these selling out online during the first 10 day window of availability that would be 2.5 Million in VIP sales alone, but could be wrong again. I have to continue to resist the FOMO.

At 100 average per store that is only 25k , weekends alone wipe that out even for small stores. Disney Springs averaging about 100k a day right now and they were at top end with the 400+ of these. Small stores only get 50-80. So its spread out accordingly where the sales go. Lego stores have nothing to do with those peoples quantities either. Regardless 10k is a very small number to be released on the US store side of things and depending on when they come back should be good for a bit. Just between the 3 promos it is like $95 in sales so like $65 clear. Least a 25% discount. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look that exciting. Why would casual fans race to get it? It might become a thing if the next houses are somehow super exciting. But I'm not gambling a big order on that chance. Maybe if I get lucky with phantom stock but so far, I've been too slow/not checking frequently enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was on the fence about this one until I saw the display at the LEGO store. It is tiny and not very impressive. The micro detailed interior is cute, but this should have been a $150 (or less) buy-in GWP. They got way too greedy on this one! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see several people use the term and I’ve never been familiar with it, what is a “phantom” order or “phantom” stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
