TheOrcKing Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 The Brick Fan just posted that Hungarian site, Kockamania, has reported two more Minecraft sets will be designed and released in the future. To clarify, this is not another production run but two newly designed sets which will complement the original one as extenstions. Here's the article on The Brick Fan. Considering how bare bones simple the original Minecraft set was, I wonder how exactly could they offer something different than before? Quote
@rtisan Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Interesting news! I`m not a fan of the original set, but if this is true, then I think it opens up the possibility that we may see 3 Back to the Future models at some point as well. I`ll be all over those Quote
Grolim Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Sounds interesting. I guess the license they have with Minecraft means they will have that option to make more. Quote
ApesInCapes Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 Interesting news! I`m not a fan of the original set, but if this is true, then I think it opens up the possibility that we may see 3 Back to the Future models at some point as well. I`ll be all over those That would be interesting for sure. I can understand why Lego would produce more minecraft considering how popular it has been. I suppose the sales of the Back to the Future set will determine whether more will be created. Quote
Snowcrash Posted June 3, 2013 Posted June 3, 2013 If true, the original set on sale rght now will almost certainly appreciate to unimagineable heights. I hope you all stocked up. 1 Quote
Maverick2k1 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I've only bought one of these sets so far. kids are seriously crazy about this game that anythings possible. Every time I lead Boy Scouts on nature hikes half of them ask me if I know what minecraft is! Quote
Quacs Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Take a look at the "Sales and Discounts" section - the #1 selling Lego set on Amazon is Minecraft. I am ecstatic that they are coming out with new sets from Minecraft because that is going to continue to drive demand for the original. I am thinking about stocking up on Amazon now... 2 Quote
TheDarkness Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 If this is accurate you would be mad not to get a couple of the original sets Quote
Quacs Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Also, S@H is out of stock until June 23 - why? Because these are popular, well selling sets, and they will continue to be popular after retirement. I just hope the original is retired at the end of the year, although my guess is mid next year. Also, my guess is that some investor/flippers have already tried to liquidate some of their inventory of this set, so retirement inventory could be lower than normal. Quote
Snowcrash Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 I'm wagering right now that every quick flipper that sold over the last few months and made less then $10 total profits will one day be kicking themselves in the tuckus... 1 Quote
ExoBro94 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 The Minecraft set was the first one I purchased as an investment. This news is honestly great! Quote
blueremains Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 Wow, just earlier today I was going through my 90-day list and had marked my Minecraft sets to return. I guess I'll be keeping them now! Quote
TheOrcKing Posted June 30, 2013 Author Posted June 30, 2013 The Brick Fan posted an article revealing details as to what the next two CUUSOO Minecraft sets will be based around. 21105 will be "The Nether" region, while 21106 is "The Village" area of the game. No pricing or actual images yet but I would suspect each of these will retail for the same price as the original Minecraft set of $34.99. Minecraft: The Nether (21105)Minecraft: The Village (21106) Quote
Coneil21 Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Does anyone know a time frame for the release of the new sets? Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Do you all really like the Minecraft game? I just can't get into it. Maybe I am not creative enough. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted June 30, 2013 Author Posted June 30, 2013 Does anyone know a time frame for the release of the new sets? The best I've managed to decipher from lines of rumors is possibly sometime around the end of this year. Nothing set in stone truthfully. Quote
Quacs Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 As Jim Kramer says, "it's time to back up the truck on this one". 21102 is going to be a big seller after retirement. Can't wait until it retires... Quote
auntiemamel Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Target has the minecraft , online, for 49. Traditionally they are not normally that much higher than msrp, esp when LEGO Shop at Home has them available. Might be an indicator of things to come. Quote
seapotato Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 I was just looking at this set at the Lego store today. It sells for $45 in Canada, and I just can't get around paying retail for this, since it doesn't look like your typical Lego set. Has anyone ever found the Minecraft set on discount? Quote

I don't live in Canada, but I was able to get 2 for 10% off in B&******, with my membership. I have 10 right now + 1 built (it's alright, but it has a cult like following). I wouldn't want it to retire and not have a bunch. Quote
justafrog Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I'm really pleased to read they'll be doing more Minecraft sets. I bought six to hold for future sale, but one was snatched out of my hands by my youngest daughter when it arrived, so I'm down to five. We're all Minecraft-playing geeks here. Quote
brandon90820 Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_gWXnS0JG4 I can smell the profits of a complete collection of the 3 sets already. 1 Quote
StarPod Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 This is a toughy.... should someone who dosnt own any of the original stock up? i have a feeling this is going to explode and were going to have a lot of new minecraft releases Quote
