January 18, 201412 yr Attached is the current list of retired sets at Lego UK. It's a good guide of what to look for in supermarkets and department stores if you don't want lots of boxes in your loft for too long.
January 18, 201412 yr 6860 is noteworthy. Anyone know if there is any standard protocol as to time delay for items retired in the UK before they go in the US? I need to stock up, but really wanted to find these at least 25% off. Waiting on Retired label for 6857 in the US as well. Should be soon. Thanks to the OP for this list.
January 18, 201412 yr I've picked up a trend, I think there's a 2 month gap on most released/EOL'd sets.

Diagon Alley went EOL in the eu 6 months before the USA. Most go at a similar time world wide.

January 23, 201412 yr In that list is missing 10197 Fire brigade and 10214 Tower Bridge - but I have heard a lot of speculations that they are over and already retired. Also I have saw that many these sets disappeared from the eshops last days. Do you think they are retired? I dont want to go to a panic buy for a bigger price, if there is a chance of restocking them...

If you see a 10197 at RRP in a shop nearby, just buy it. Feel free to post an updated list if you have one. I'll post another one from the UK this weekend.

January 23, 201412 yr The Winter Village Cottage will remain retired. Many of us thought the same thing with last years winter sets, but they never returned.
