Crustybeaver Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Yeah I have no doubt this will be a good performer when production stops. It's got Batman and all his cronies, what fans not going to like this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Fire Truck may be in the top ten but doesn't mean it will sell higher than retail price at any point. AA will have no shortage of fans when it's gone and price will rise at a steady pace.

I did buy a AA this morning, I do not disagree with anything you say, I disagree that batman is a best seller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroster Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I just got excited to see AA available at toys r us online (hadn't seen that before). Then I noticed the price of $199.99. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a new development...hopefully we see it "discounted" to MSRP soon so we can jump on it with gift cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't this usual behaviour for Toys R Us USA to raise the price on a retired set or when rumoured to be ceasing production? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRU in us is like crazy uncle - nobody knows what he will do next. Might pull the pants down any minute. What did discounts on PR and sandcrawler meant? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michalwroc Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 AA is available to order with shipping date on 9 dec in all EU countries that have the 15% discount but sold out in all others at rrp, thats really strange.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazuli16 Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Perhaps they are starting clear out inventory? (Fingers crossed) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crustybeaver Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Discount now ended and status set to sold out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young_Gun21 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Discount now ended and status set to sold outI am pretty sure they did this discount because they knew it was a slower seller in Europe so they wanted to clear out stock. It will sellout in US easy so me reason to discount. My 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I still couldn't make my mind up on the AA. At first glance it's just an over-priced facade with no all round structure like a modular. Then again, it does have great minifigs and is a very popular theme. I was close to ordering one 15min ago just before it went back up to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickbuilder.g Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 this vs. the R2? what do you all think? I think AA has the better return over the next 3 years.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young_Gun21 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 this vs. the R2? what do you all think?

exciter1 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 this vs. the R2? what do you all think? I think AA has the better return over the next 3 years.... I'd be surprised if our little chrome dome doesn't shock us all, even those who are predicting great gains. I'd honestly buy both... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emazers Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Both The R2 Droid and the Batman Ayslum will be big money makers, any Investor not getting these will regret it. I have 42 Droids and 35 AA and still buying them. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asharerin Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 IMO both sets will do quite well. Both are from popular and collectible themes. I would like to have seen more exclusive minfigs and better play features in AA, and more rare and unique pieces used in R2, but they are what they are and both have some issues. Better than most of the alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
