That is USA this is Australia. Probably just a technical error.

maybe - oz shop at home often foretells retirements months or even a year in advance.  saw this with minnie and mickey bhz.  minecraft ender dragon has been out of stock since march sold out.  at least i'm not gated on the D11 ;)

wasn't much foreshadowing on bhz first year so, they all went at end of year.   Pretty simple.

idk...in the past Lego would TOOS large sets to assure stock for their BF promo

I was wondering about that. Which larger sets are left for BF? I was betting on the A-Wing, which seems to have been a mistake. Crocodile, London Bus, maybe James Bond car? But no SW or HP from the looks of it.

I just swung by my local LEGO store for A-Wing and Barracuda Bay and I saw both plus corner garage, roller coaster, London Bus, Crocodile, Aston Martin. So possible that stores will have some of these sets for BF if they don't sell out by then in store.

I think all three of those you mentioned are good contenders, especially London Bus since it has already been on sale through various retailers many times this year.

I know you all have been holding your breath, it looks like Amazon sold out of Pasaana Speeder Chase...

 

Still available for MSRP from 3PS

I made fun of this set ever since the set pictures leaked online (even before the trailer).  And I did not buy any since it was part of the Disney trilogy.

But objectively, this might go far due to strength of the brand and despite people like me who won't touch this thing with a 10' pole....

Can somebody let me know in 2 years what happens to this set?  Because I know I won't remember :dontknow:
