EctoG63AMG Posted February 7, 2023 Posted February 7, 2023 Brick Fanatics is the National Enquirer of the Lego world. I take everything with a grain of salt that they put out as they’re often way off target with their “forecasts” and made up sources. Quote

Expand Originally that early in year it will show that. Usually the exclusive extensions come Sept/Oct. The list was right at that time though. Just how the exit dates work. There's even some discrepancies direct from Lego and the upcoming store planograms at the end of the year which is amusing. 2 Quote
starwarsxpress Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) Brickfanatics list is great. I think they know more about what is retiring than Lego does lol Edited February 8, 2023 by starwarsxpress Quote

I think that I'll take a chance with that one. 1 Quote

marcandre Posted February 8, 2023 Posted February 8, 2023 Is the 2600 a dud? Thats a fast retirement. I think it's a cool set but I'm old 👴 I'll be shocked by Police Station. Maybe if they drag AS out another year. Quote

Expand It's actually a good set to part out - and I'd buy more if LEGO hadn't enforced such a ridiculously low limit. There's a decent range of in-demand parts/colours and I've been surprised by the demand for the minifigures; definitely one to consider if you have a Bricklink store (especially if you can combine it with an offer or two!).
