January 17, 201411 yr Check your Targets. Each of mine restocked exactly 3 just yesterday. Weird to say the least.
January 17, 201411 yr 8 out of the 9 walmarts I've been to in the last 2 weeks have all restocked 3 as well.
January 17, 201411 yr I was at my local Walmart this morning, and they had a couple of Batcaves as well.
January 17, 201411 yr Batcaves, X-Wings, and Superman with Lex... I think all 3 are apparently going to be around at least 6 more months.
January 17, 201411 yr Randomly exactly one of my Walmarts clearanced them for $55 after they got them back in stock.
January 17, 201411 yr I have decided to return 6 I bought last year thinking it was going away. Gotta love the return policies. I noticed quite a few walmarts have them in stock,
January 17, 201411 yr 6860 still showing retired in the UK at the moment. Could this be an UNRETIREMENT in the making? Very worrying if it is.
January 17, 201411 yr I saw them again at TRU, but they sold out quickly. I saw 6 more at a local Wal-Mart last night.
January 17, 201411 yr My guess is that this is one last push of product for the US. Most, if not all, overseas countries show this set as retired.
January 17, 201411 yr I think Mos is probably (once again) right on this one. All year is seeming more realistic, until we see another Superhero set announced at that price point or higher. I don't think they are going to have a mix where $49.99 is the most expensive set. Superman/Lex is not a surprise since Wonder Woman is in the Lego Movie.
January 17, 201411 yr What's the big deal ? This has been available at LEGO Shop at Home since early January. It was only Sold Out in December. 6860 still showing retired in the UK at the moment. Could this be an UNRETIREMENT in the making? Very worrying if it is. In the US, this was sold out a few times but NEVER retired. I do not remember seeing the "Retring soon" tag on it either
January 17, 201411 yr On the contrary, ideal for me to pick up a few. I only have one and would love to get my hands on five or ten more.
January 17, 201411 yr Batcaves come in cases of 3 and they will be around all year. It will be interesting if this occurs. This would be the first time TLG has retired a set for the rest of the world while keeping production going soley for North America.
January 17, 201411 yr Author It will be interesting if this occurs. This would be the first time TLG has retired a set for the rest of the world while keeping production going soley for North America. Which was really my whole point anyway - or why I was suprised.
January 17, 201411 yr The last post of the Daily Deals thread yesterday mentioned that this was in a retailer's catalog for the next year. How many many different LEGO Shop at Home stores is this retired at?
January 17, 201411 yr italian S&**** shows it as RETIRED no mention of it in the catalogue EU AMAZON have it available on third party stores only at very high prices every sign is clearly pointing at EOL
January 17, 201411 yr The last post of the Daily Deals thread yesterday mentioned that this was in a retailer's catalog for the next year. How many many different LEGO Shop at Home stores is this retired at? Basically for the rest of the world
January 17, 201411 yr Batcaves, X-Wings, and Superman with Lex... I think all 3 are apparently going to be around at least 6 more months. Mine had all of these as well as more daily bugles.
January 18, 201411 yr So frustrating. Two weeks ago I drove 30 miles to a distant Walmart during the Polar vortex to complete a pickup order for the only Batcave within 45 miles of my house. Don't ask why I didn't just wait a week for the weather to clear...I was hunting for clearance and guess what?...Nothing on clearance. To make matters worse, I went the wrong direction on the turnpike on the way home which cost me more time, money, and gas. Epic fail of a haul.
January 18, 201411 yr Has anyone been able to pick up this set at any significant discount (25% or more) in the last 6 months?
January 18, 201411 yr Anyone remember how long the 2006 Batcave was available (I know what brick set says)? I remember seeing them at TRUs back in late 2008 and early 2009 while doing baby shopping when my wife was pregnant with my son. Just curious. I think that set was needed late in the theme's run so kids had a chance to buy the batcave to go along with the other sets. Maybe this batcave will follow suit?
