  2. People just be grateful Jeff is using his precious time to pull this data. It's not hard to find the RRP. He's doing the best he can. He doesn't even have to do what he's doing and some still find a way to find something to question

  4. Some of the Ideas sets have had a relatively short run...which is a plus. Hell, Doctor Who hasn't even been around a year. The Sandcrawler will probably never be made again, unless there is a Jawa movie...which I doubt will happen. The Pet Shop is one of the most popular sets off all time and will still find some love later on. The SOH is a underappreciated set that will appreciate well once it's gone. Ewok Village and the Ecto are uber stockpiled, but they are still quality and popular sets. I think it is good news, but I can understand people being hesitant.

  5. 41999 4x4 Crawler Exclusive Edition I've always been a fan of power function technic sets and this one is one of the best I've built. It's a shame I was in my dark ages until this year, so I had to pay resell price for this set. It's a great set and the colours / stickers used in the set make it really unique.

  7. I think this set wins most overpriced set of this year. $89.99 msrp for this is crazy.

  8. If it runs out of stock during the next month or so, this might be a decent Christmas flip. It's right in that "substantial but not over the top" price-range. I could see it fetch $99 in the weeks before X-mas _if_ it goes to Sold Out. It is also a great set.

  9. i guess new box matters - none of the sets that received new boxes (T1, TB, PC, Minicooper) seem to be headed out. SOH and PS which had no box remake are on their way. how are the people who loaded up on $180 TB's at Walmart a couple of summers ago feeling now? Have we made it to depressed acceptance or are you still stuck at the bargaining phase?

  13. Yes, a number of Belgian/Dutch resellers now carry (more) "exclusives". Bartsmit also carry Airjitzu, Batcave, UCS TIE, TB, Slave I, Brick Bank, T1, Mini Cooper, F40 and SW. They have very bad prices though, so only worth it if you somehow manage to find an amazing discount. The porsche is also pretty much everywhere. The whole "exclusive" / "hard to find" thing, is complete BS. They should just be honest and introduce the "expensive" tag.

  19. Lego Store (all bought for the family): Fairground Mixer, Star Wars Advent calendar, two Christmas bulbs and one Disney minifig pack (wanted Buzz Lightyear, got Ursula instead – it was late and the family was tired. My daughter gave it a good try and for Dad it feels weird standing there in the store smooshing packs). We already have all the Disney minifigs and Dad wanted a Buzz for work. I think there may a joke or punch line in that last sentence somewhere…Started the day with 435 VIP points, redeemed 400 (a deal with my wife so I could get the mixer) and ended with 414 points. I say this is a win! And the free set was 40222 (the 24 in 1 Christmas set, not the London Bus).

  29. I only have one Sandcrawler and one Ewok Village as only bought one of each at 20% off. I won't be buying any more without a similar offer and would still have to think about it then. Not interested in SOH and TBBT at all. I've been slowly stocking up on WALL-E, Ecto-1, Pet Shop and Dr Who over time when I could get them at decent prices and put in more orders on those a couple of days ago. I may bite on some more depending on if they sell out and if any go on offers too good to refuse. Ecto would probably be sold out most places by now if you could get it for £30 without too much effort. Got a decent amount but still keeping to my budget. Had to hold back on a few things over the last few months as I listened to the good advice to wait until retirement season and see what gets tagged before blowing too much money on things that will just be hanging around. I was fortunate that several of the things I'd already been buying made it into this years retirement show.

  30. And it's such a cool set too!! This is odd... And with a ppp at just under 4.5 cents.....not too shabby!

  31. You get excited when Town Hall retires. You feel relieved when all the above go. That´s the difference. I doubt anyone hasn´t made their number by now - Wall E being the possible exception and it´s a question of waiting for SOLD OUT and seeing demand on secondary market sites. Don´t worry, I´ll get excited if any of them bumps 20% RRP by January.

  35. I am pretty sure every set that has got that tag has retired the year it was tagged. They only use it on the sets that they have alot of and are not confident they can move without discounts. It is basically a way to tell resellers what is retiring to coax them into buying at RRP.

  36. Most of the sets have been around for a long time, so I wouldn't completely discount it. One oddity I've noticed is the Ferris Wheel has been in and out of backorder a couple of times this month. was also surprised to see the maze on backorder till november too. I didn't think that was a great seller.

  37. I'd like to see the math on that. I'm guessing you have to narrow your choices to the absolute optimum $50 purchase in order to make that 45% discount real. Also, the 20% off sounds good in theory, but in-store (where the promo is) many of the shelf prices in my store are marked up 10%. But if your store, and your buys are working for you, then good. For the items I'm interested in, it's a tepid discount. 'Course it's possible the smart ones may be those that are collecting and holding the promos. From what I hear here, many stores are running out of these in the first days. If they don't make more, they could be highly valued someday... but just look like some generic, random figs to me :/

  39. As a Marvel fan I think the Helicarrier is an awesome build and display piece. I too am not sure about its investment potential. I don't think a lot of people see this one as a winner. I don't have any yet in my portfolio but I think if I don't have at least 1 put away when it retires I may regret it.
