I had to make a few changes to the way this alert system works because it it actually too fast with the updates and too efficient. It was costing us a small fortune to send out SMS messages for items that people were not really interested in buying. You will need to go in an check your items to make sure you are receiving alerts on the sets that you want. You will now have the opportunity to select either email and/or SMS for each sets for each store that you are interested in. There is also logic in there tracking purchases (mostly Amazon since they have the most changes). That will disable SMS alerts after a while if no purchases are made. You will still always get email alerts, but there is no need to bombard people with 100 SMS alerts if you are not ready to purchase that set at this time. Hopefully this will keep your phones from going crazy as well as keep you up to date when stock is available. It is also keeps the system Free for people to use.

Sold 2 x Ninjago 70503 Golden Dragon for 70 euro each.

Great work on the site guys, it has started me on the path to owning way to many sets lol. Just bought some vw T1 camper vans and some ghost buster cars. Love the investing forum, read hours already, great information and hope to learn and contribute anything i can!

Hey man if the UCS DS Storage Box has gone EOL, the DS will follow for sure... That's the kind of inside information I've been waiting for.

If owned, I would also get out w/in months since City is refreshed so often. In the last year, we have had 3 city explorer type sub-themes. Coast Guard, Arctic and the up-coming underwater sets. Demand will decrease sooner or later. 2x retail if awesome for a City set that can still be had in various parts of the world.

Used Simpsons house and Simpsons minifigure set for $150.

Wal-Mart 4x GOTG: Milano - $11 each 4x GOTG: Milano - $20 each (random stop on the way to the mall with the family) 2x GOTG: Nowhere Escape - $25 each (same random stop) Target 3x Technic: Hot Rod - $19.98 each

At kaufhof you get the payback 10 times points so another 10% off. Looks like death star and ewok village are gone like x wing two weeks ago. So there is a new hope.

... This is the worst think to happen to Canada since Nickelback.

Looks like somebody is stashing lego around the Langley target Saw some stars wars by the vacuum section.

This is terrific. There's nothing I need more than my 5-year old daughter believing private jet flights are something I am able, capable, or willing to provide.

Know when to walk away, know when to run...away from Chima clearance. Edit: I can't believe I quoted "The Gambler" for my 2000th post. Hangs head in shame.

I'm sure Tabby is going to buy loads

OK I just sold a Galaxy Squad Galactic Titan for $90. Its in a postal zone that will probably cost me about $5-6 freight. What is this world coming to?

A lot of a-holes out there needing a good wipe.

supposed to be. This and the new shuttle

I don't think they would release a new MF with the Rebels sets. If its coming, it'll be September. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Brickpicker mobile app

I'm a seller at $120.

Supply plane obsoleted, accessory pack gone, clearancing at retailers in store, base camp and outpost not available at Walmart online. Just personal opinion as stated.

Excellent condition used 10188 for $290 with postage,

leave it on. If you don't and its lost for some reason or doesn't show delivered you will be out. Same rules apply, it just has to get to the KY address. To much mail has been "undelivered" of late. Think the excess they are receiving from everyone boycotting UPS / Fedex dimensional is over burdening them. Seen a ridiculously high amount of items not get there since mid January. Most of mine were delivered so I won the cases but last week had 2 to the same lady that were not delivered and had to refund.

Refuse Vehicle: 204-00-0251Mini Golf: 086-02-3260 Just did a double check and they are correct although the stock levels read like only what is on the floor not the total amount the store has.

Yeah, it's a cool designed theme like. My son likes it as much as the coast guard one. I expect the deep sea one to also be well-liked.

I wonder why there's no EOL talk these few days? Keep buying them up and Lego will keep making them for another 18 months.

Hey! I'm quite new here but thought that i would share with you my latest BrickFilm Its based on Lego Minecraft and an ordinary day there.... Don't like Minecraft? Check out my Lego Uptown Funk! Music Video: Thanks for reading

I think there is a point where set rarity comes into play outside of theme demand. This one in North America is already a double. It disappeared extremely quickly and under the cover of Christmas. Many would have made the assumption they would pick this set up on sale or clearance at a later time and being nothing special wouldn't have to worry. I know others have commented that sets with this short of availability are few but I wonder if any city experts have any comparable sets in mind?

Thanks for advice. It

... Purchased yet ANOTHER Double Decker Couch set. My Fellow Brick Pickers: This set is under fifteen bucks. Purchase it. Store it. You will see 4x your investment on this absolutely iconic set, which includes the couch itself and the characters you love all in one VERY well-done, and very fairly-priced package. Your future customers, and your wallet, will thank you.

Orc I have had many-a-discussion with The Misses over exactly the point you are making regarding Mini-figs Versus Mixels. A mini-fig is four bucks, and is less than ten pieces. A mixel can typically have 70+ pieces and is only FIVE DOLLARS. From an otherwise fair and straight-forward company this is ridiculous. $2.50 would still be a significant profit-margin on a Series-based mini-fig... four dollars just looks like greed. It's our only major disappointment with TLG. I don't mind paying a premium for Licensed products- understanding how many channels of payment are required. But for a tiny portion of ABS, non-licensed plastic to cost four dollars actually does the company a disservice.

"We hear a story too good to be true... it ain't" - Lt. Aldo Raine

Very true. I've got a stack to flip and a stack to hold. Sounds like a Kenny Rogers song.

IMO, the bulls will be running on R2 for a very- VERY long time. Virtually no chance of a re-hash for a little bot that is one of the most iconic characters of one of the most iconic films of all-time... and who's presence and popularity will only increase with the slew of SW films to come (in which- worth noting- He will be featured). I would hypothesize this set goes well into the $1,000+ range, and faster than many would imagine. Again, just IMO. Hold. Store, forget about, and hold. Even with the hoarding, long product run, and opportunity to acquire, the exceptional popularity and demand for this set will override the volume acquired by "folks like us". ________________ Additionally: Both WVM and the SW AT-AT are virtually extinct at the retail level... both, as of this post, are currently available at MRSP @ amazon US. Well worth a look.

Trust me...it's not pulling teeth for me to go back into any of the shops at LEGOLAND. I needed to pick up some more Easter sets.

Well that explains why when I went to the langley store at 7:00 PM last night there were no Hotdog guys to be had! Damn you Speedsausage!! LOL Well done. (Im also in langley)

I took a look. There's nothing on the cup nor in the directions to indicate how much it holds. I'd guess 8 oz. it might be closer to 6 oz though. It's not big at all.

I haven't been able to find my GTI pics in the thousands of photos we have on the computer but a buddy who is taking a course is making this project in class for my 2.5yo. It's going to be more pimp than both my GTI and speed3.

I finally found a box of Series 13 at Walmart (still nothing from Target) and now I should have the other twelve characters I did not find before. I have not had a chance to open these ones up for display yet but looking forward to it. Unfortunately I got stuck paying $4 each which pretty much killed my personal 'allowance'. People complain with "LEGO is expensive" looking at the $100 or so sets when they should look further down at these smalls. Going from $2 to now paying twice that amount on these single minifigures is just insane. I could stomach $3 but what the heck? These can't possibly cost the company more to make a couple years later from the line's original inception. Sorry for the sourness. Just one of those things when you get more in a polybag for the same price by comparison or when the total cost could have bought a hefty set or two. Shoot, for a dollar more one Mixel offers a whole lot.

A 10233 Horizon Express that popped up on SAH the other day under Sales and Deals for $116.98. It must have been a return. It shipped today.

Oh as a comic fanboy, I know all about the Supergirl show and my hopes aren't high. I don't think kids really care about Supergirl enough. I barely see any interest in Wonder Woman anymore. j'onn j'onzz Is popular with peope my age but again, the kids doesn't seem to care about him. Heck, since the Man of Steel film and lack of a legit role in The Lego Movie,, ids don't seem to really care much about Superman. Zack Synder is terrible. Everything is Batman, Avengers, and Spider-Man. By the way. The Flash and Arrow (since season 2) shows are done well. Maybe Supergirl stands a chance. I'm just staying away from this set except for one if my son ever asks for it (and he likes Superman).

Why? Many on here like to keep their dorky toy collecting/selling side separate from the rest of their life. Here they don't have to. As far as the OP I would like to echo the sentiment of "I came for the LEGO, I stayed for the community." As much as I love LEGO I can only talk about it so much, and on a slow deal day we need something to keep us online.

Some Captain Harlock (Albator) ships would be awesome. '> https://ideas.lego.com/projects/7937

http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/11846-60064-arctic-supply-plane/ Plenty of interesting speculation in the original thread so no need to re-hash here. Mods please merge at your convenience. Pro-tip - go to the forum search, make sure it's set to forum, type in the set number, feel the rush of matching on your search criteria!

Picked up 6 Burj Khalifa for just over $20 a piece. Cleaned out my B&******.

Of course it is still early (or not yet even) in the "EOL" stage for all sets in this theme but you are correct that overall it has not been too good investment-wise. By CAGR in the database, Shelob's Lair (25%) and Mirkwood Elf Army are the leaders thus far. Mirkwood Spiders has really taken off lately, Lake Town Chase got a huge bump over the holidays, and Unexpected Gathering is finally starting its inevitable climb as well. ToO speaks for itself. The first four are very roughly double MSRP on eBay last I checked. Why those? The minifigs tell the main story, if you ask me - especially after the final Hobbit movie. But to address your question, is any of this performance "good"? For the pair of wave 2 Hobbit sets, I would argue yes. They can still be found in the occasional Walmart for up to 50% off and are fetching ~4x that. But it really depends on when they plateau, of course. On the subject of minifigs, Lonely Mountain has five exclusive version minifigs in addition to the big fire-breathing star of the show, including the three dwarves that "matter" in the movie besides Thorin. Perhaps more importantly, it represents the point of the whole dang story from start to finish. For purists, very little of that other "5 armies" spectacle was in the book, and none of the Dol Guldur business. Of course this probably won't matter a great deal but it is something to think about long term. Helm's Deep is not a great comparison, in my opinion, though arguably the closest between the two sibling themes. It did do quite well initially after becoming unavailable, but plateau'd very quickly too. Holidays and all that... It only has 3 exclusive minifigs out of 8 total, by the way, two of which are comparable to the Lonely Mountain dwarves in terms of being "second tier" important characters. No super-villain-huge-awesome-guy to carry the set at all. And unlike Hulk, we know we will never see another Lego Smaug. Furthermore, despite a very solid design, Helm's Deep suffers from "lots of grey bricks" syndrome. The Lonely Mountain does not. It is colorful and therefore more unique. Finally, Helm's Deep is just not iconic enough to represent LotR the way Lonely Mountain represents The Hobbit. It is much more similar to Lake Town in many ways, story-wise. The difference being, it survives.. mostly. Now, had Sauron "lived" in Mount Doom, and THAT set been released, WITH him as a maxi-fig, we would have an ideal comparison product. I realize Unexpected Gathering is much easier to display, so it may be chosen "over" this set by many folks who don't give a rip about any of the rest of it. But I think the (personally predicted) difference in supply will more than make up for that in terms of the sets competing against each other. Another way to put it is that this set is to The Hobbit what Black Pearl was to PotC, or Hogwarts to Harry Potter (imagine if there had only been one version). Obviously I am not the first to draw those comparisons.

It's time for an EPIC RAP BATTLE OF HISTORY!!!! Doctor Brown VS Doctor Who
