Y'all need to stop wasting time posting......you are wasting precious hoarding time. BUY, BUY, BUY, BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's see if we can make this set worthless!

But those will be labeled 'Health Leedger' on the box...

eBay: SSD $900 ($10 final value fee) Delorean $130

The Tumbler is a must have set. When it retires, people will panic once again. This is no Tower of Orthanc. It's much better. As I stated a long time ago, you can never have too many of this set. It will perform better than any Modular and will be on the same league as the Slave 1 and other UCS sets IMO. If it disappears soon...lookout.

Microfighter x-wing and millennium falcon for $38 on ebay. x3

LEGO: The tumbler and hellicarrier are retiring hurry and get them before they are gone forever!!!!!! The horde: we better hurry and buy buy buy buy buy!!!!!!!!! Lego a few months later: ha ha ha just kidding suckas!!!!!

$130 set bought on BF for 40% off sold via CL for RRP. $50 profit for an 8-day hold. My most sincere apologies to the QFLL's. I was wrong to criticize you. Even with my high moral standards, opportunities like this are just too hard to say no to.

Mom & Pop sale extravaganza!

I think there is way to much thought going into this, it's retiring soon that's all there is to it.

I just wanted to share a special moment I just had with those of you that are thinking of contributing and would really like to see your published work on the store shelves. Today was finally the first day I got to go to a store and see if the book was available. I got to say it was a pretty surreal moment to walk down the isle and then see your name on the spine mixed in with the rest. It was a lot of work, but in the end I am grateful that we were giving the opportunity and this next book will be even better.

i'm doing my part to ensure its not a poor seller. i think the timing is great. time to get to goal. up to 7 - would like to be at 21 by EOL. i have no darkseids and i can sleep at night. not sure i'd be able to sleep without a small stash of tumblers. Tumber EOL - now that will be some epic F5'ing you can be sure.

Today I learned something exists called "Google will eat itself" on a Lego-related site. Of course, I used Google search to figure out what GWEI is.

Woo! Just topped $200 on Amazon from a 3PS. Love it. A shame I only have two, but I think I'm going to hang on to them a while. I'd probably have more if I had a B&N closer to my home.

Where have you been hiding? Under a rock?

this set makes me drink alot.

40138 Christmas Train for $45 on eBay

These were a good buy with Target snafu...

Was in Canadian tire last night browsing and came across the LEGO section 20-50% off. There were some good buys (ISD, ATAT, Pirate Ship). However a few other locations i checked had no sales at all, and some were only like %20. Online price does not reflect the in store price as well. Picked up a couple ATAT's

Oh man those GBH prices, gotta love the insanity.

The problem is the sniping approach. When most investors buy in bulk when a set is rumor to retire that spikes sells and may lead Lego to extend its life. But if everyone buy their quotas in a steady phase throughout the product life cycle, it should not skew the sales metric too much and should reduce any last minute product life extension. Also less F5 heart attack on us too

I keep having no luck with local sales the last few weeks if anyone near DeSoto Tx starting 12/9 some vintage space if anyone near Liberty, Mo for 12/10- nice adventures stuff

Probably you are right. But I hope I am right.

I don't think they're that compassionate. If they were, you'd get a heads up on everything. I think maybe they're not selling it as quickly as they'd like & stock levels are high in the countries they have it tagged "retiring soon."

Where's the fun in that???

GBH $78 x2 Amazon, actually scared of selling higher with risk of price dropping and getting hit with returns

Unless you count the ones from China.

This statement is true but it also has 6

The online saving feature for Walmart.ca is back and Benny's spaceship is 50% off. My first post so wanted to say hi. I'm more of a collector vs investor and have been on this site learning and catching deals when I can and its hard because you guys are fast.

Sell the new sets and buy used sets to build. That is what I've been dong. Just wait for a deal to turn up. They always do depending on what you consider a deal... Then sell the used sets when you are ready for at least a small profit.

Yes, you did. Do not take it personally. Here you will even get shot down if you post the earth is round.

Buy the tires direct from LEGO.com for $8 per tire.

I posted 2-3 months back that my local Lego shop Boss told me that it would be retiring soon and it would also take everyone by surprise. It even had a Retiring soon tag on the box in the store. Got shot down pretty quickly. looks like his prophecy might be right Helicarrier is retiring soon as well according to him,like I posted. Retiring soon tag in the store and a sign that says "not eligible for members discount anymore"

I agree. Well, isn't there a new Batmobile in the new movie that would make the Tumbler outdated? Just sayin..... Makes a lot of sense...

My inventory ultimately ends up sorted in a tray system (for the most part). I use the "Remarks" section to tag what tray the lot is in, so "T1, T2" etc. When looking at your inventory summary page you can sort by the remarks. So sometimes I will spot check a tray by sorting for the "T2" remark and auditing. I can only get about 30 lots in each tray, so it's manageable. Happy to share pics of the trays I use if anyone is interested.

Sold gbh for $77.94 on Amazon

Oh yeah, well one time I got them for $3 each after BOGO, stacked with 20% off, TRUTH and Rewards dollars. So I pretty much can't be beat.

Good luck getting that feedback removed. You will need persistence or luck in large amounts, maybe both. I had a similar situation last year with an old Star Wars polybag set. The mom who bought it let her kid open it and build it then left negative feedback for it being "so small" and "such a ripoff". I even bold / highlighted the piece count in my listing description... It took a lot of convincing eBay that her "honest experience" had nothing to do with my performance as a seller, only her failure to be a responsible buyer.

Truly amazing how little attention this is getting. The space station that cried wolf, indeed.

Tomorrow

you can bet the tumbler will begin going in and out of stock before the final "poof" far faster than the exo-suit (which is a great ideas set).

Ditto on learning what Google Will Eat Itself means here today. I lurk here like most. Rarely post. But wanted to respond to Rfish's post re: seeing a contradiction. IMHO this site is a cacophony of investor Id. Tactically, as a buyer, it works extremely well for locating discounted inv in small qty. Everything else interpretive-advice related is entertainment-value only. Fair point as it is a contradiction. But its like screaming "fire!" in Hell.

I think most people around here have this problem... Buying more than they need.

If there's one defining set for the Rebels cartoon, it is this one. I really don't think it should be without a Phantom, but after it retires, if the show is still getting support from Disney, it will go up. I was not a fan of the build, you create a brick and then put wings on it. My kids love it because they love Rebels. I think it has a lot more fan appeal than the other Rebels sets. That said, it's not OT or even PT. Group it in with Clone Wars. It should do about as well as those.

mine been going for 130

What concerns me is the average person thinking that GBH *is* this year's Christmas set and wanting to return it because it's not (e.g., it's so much smaller)

60083 Snowplow Truck also has the 'Retiring Soon' label This is an awesome set (imo anyway). Might be time to load up as they are heavily discounted here in Australia at the moment

After this years Winter Toy Shop fiasco, it wouldn't surprise me if TLG decided to make the GBH the newest addition to the winter village theme in 2016.

I don't understand why anybody would be selling these now, unless you are broke. See most people say they can wait before they sell to make some good money, but its not as easy as I stated 100 times. I have 25 paid around $75 or so months ago and will not be selling any for a while. So you guys that are Cracking and selling these now will regret it. Ed

Wouldnt it seem a bit off to have the tumbler on the shelves featuring bale and ledger as figures when the movie running then is completely different regarding the vehicle as well as the characters? The tumbler is no generic-licensed Batman set, but dedicated to the TDK trilogy. Draw your own conclusions from that.
