Mos_Eisley Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 But the profits will likely not be very quick. Hundred to thousands of these sets will suddenly hit ebay after they are purchased at a discount. Whatever the going price was before the discount will no longer hold. Depending on the set, it could take a while before a worthwhile profit can be made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studio4202 Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Do you guya know if the 25 off 100 is also in store for TRU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowillsw Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Season 2 looks like the setting will not be in Chima. For the late comers, they'll rewatch season 1 and will want the older toys. I think it's a good time to accumulate whenever there's a sale and unload at the DVD release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraboy888 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Another one to look at is the Lion Chi Temple. Those have been selling like hotcakes in my area and are all sold out. Same can be said in my area. TRU and Lego store sold out of all the Chi Temples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobo1969 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Any thoughts on 70003 Eris' Eagle? I can grab these 50% off at Target Canada right now. I'm not much into Chima but I've been keeping an eye open for discounts on the big sets. This one was beneath my notice until it went on sale to be honest.

ppsagehen Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 If the show stays on and enjoys popularity the Chi temple has to be THE set to have. It's where all the Chi comes from after all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quacs Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 DNIIM had some luck flipping these over Christmas, but this was in the US and during the holiday selling season. That said, 50% off is great - without knowing Canadian retail, it sounds like an absolute bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other Chima sets definitely seem more popular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supraboy888 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 One day I'll actually read a helpful and positive post from you. What makes you think that Eagle will do well? It's an ugly piece of work. Good luck bagholding if you bought. Hit the homerun with the Chi Temple, Croc Swamp or Cragger's Command Ship, not some cheap rubbish.

Just polling the boardees if Eagle is worth the effort of getting at HALF price. Most LEGO sets are worth the risk at 50% off if you have the money to park.

TheOrcKing Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 For the few of us that actually like Legends of Chima then here is a poll thread with some questions.Which is your favorite tribe?Who is your favorite character/minifigure?Which clan has the coolest vehicles/gear/weaponry?Who has the best Speedor?Unless somebody can think of some more questions to add, I believe that is it.

Anakinisvader Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 My favorite tribe is the one that kicked out the Johnny Depp Tonto for looking like a freak and ruining the Lone Ranger movie. As for Chima, I like the Skunk cuz he passes gas a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 The Gorilla tribe is my favorite and I love Gorzan's Gorilla Striker. Best minifigure is the new spider fig. Best Speedor set is Furty because of the fig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywdbri Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Just for discussion. I feel Chima isn't a strong seller at this point, even Lego has them on sale. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauromosis Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Agree. Total flop. Had a lego sales rep tell me that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veegs Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Might be one or two sets, especially first wave, that have some potential. I'm not seeing Ninjago-type gains at this point. Read DNIIM's blog post - he's a little more into it than some, although there are dissenting opinions. Plus they are pretty much the only sets still on the shelves in any great number where I'm at...
