MotorCityMuscle Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) the mini cooper set is the only speed champ getting the boot this year? so looks like the 6-wide will live on a bit longer. ah, nevermind, guess it's only like 5, 6-wide sets still around anyway. guess i missed some from 2019.

I wondered the same thing. Although LEGO has the 6-wide, they are getting scarce in most stores. LEGO is oos of the minicooper set. Walmart was selling the same set for 20% off.

Aside from Han being murdered I don't remember much of anything about the "Starkiller" base. Probably would be a shelf warmer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcinj Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Does the SAH available quantity of sets give right indication on what set might be hard to get by retailers? What I'm interested is to follow tendencies of a specific set. If its available at SAH at the quantity of 20, and its starting to fall to lets say 5 or 3 that would mean that the retailers that get stock though other channels would also had trouble to restock the specific set. And that would be a good moment to start buying from retail (when sets quantity drops at SAH, but are still available in retail). Any insight would help (can be through pm). Much appreciated.

TrigBricks Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Looks like 75234 AT-AP Walker has gone for part/all of Europe. It is no longer on the UK or France Lego website and I assume also the other countries served by the same warehouse. I see it is Sold Out in the US. To be honest I don’t rate it but I am happy some people do because I have a few and the UK ebay price is pushing £100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pharmjod Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Why in the world would LEGO retire a flagship, iconic set on your timeline? I could see them keeping the Disney castle in production for a decade or more. They'd be crazy not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be crazy not to. elmasliefendi has insider info. they posted the first accurate retirement list last year as their very first post on bp'er, so i'm guessing they meant that disney castle has been on the retirement list and then gotten pushed back. agree they would be insane to retire disney castle unless their is a special pink cheese slope they have too many of maybe we can change a circular spire into a square one.

Darth_Raichu Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Disney is in financial problem due to the virus. Why would they want to stop collecting licensing $ from LEGO for sets like Disney Castle that are already paid for in term of design and promotion costs ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Can't blame LEGO though, it's a nice set. Same with 21309, huge seller, but that was IDEAS, I'm just guessing they had to eventually retire it to create room for the new stuff coming in. It would have probably lasted 10 years in the Creator Expert line... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csingh Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Anybody have any insight as to when the roller coaster will retire? Bought it this morning for 25% off RRP but couldn't find anything online about a possible retirement. Looks like it's been out for 2 years now.
