I was lucky and found a couple City Garbage Trucks for $2 each the other day. You never know, that happened to me in the past on some Ninjago stuff too.

Did they remake the mini London Bus too?

sold 3x 41135 Friends Livi's pop star house for $140 each. this one seems to be rallying I repriced higher but i'm almost out of the livi game

I was sure you photoshopped him in. haha

Bought a few Women of Exo Suits.

No they are English pounds but the pound will soon be on a 1:1 exchange rate with peanuts.

Picked these up off Facebook Marketplace a couple weeks ago for $50 !!! All of the pieces were there plus a couple other smaller vehicle sets not pictured !! All in excellent condition =)

Problem is when 999 sellers send in 99 each .. HOLD the damn LINE

I totally read that as Colonel Sanders the first time.

Kmart clearance deals can be exceptional even WITHOUT the use of points: found a 70745 Ninjago Anacondrai Crusher on the top shelf, didn't ring up on store scanner nor price-check at the register. Friendly lady took me to someone with a special inventory scanner, who said it was $2. Then, when I paid it turned out to be marked Clearance (which is 50% off right now) so got it for $1 before SYW shenanigans. Found more old sets, applied $5 off $35 coupon, which made my pre-points total $0.82. To top it all off, the register printed out a $5 on $5 Freecash coupon and a $5 off $25 toys coupon. Not too shabby.

Gotta love it when the manager of the local TRU calls you and asks if you want all the leftovers from the BB-8 build....

Pesos

Check out “Awake”, 2nd TV spot [/url]

I confess that I didn't read the article. I'm too busy making YouTube videos about how one can make $10,000 a day selling crap online!

not sure if this might be foreshadowing

How did you manage to get that many?!?

amazon sold out

Some misc "thinning of the shelves" sales across different platforms. Really loving the Scooby sets so far. 1x Scooby Mystery Mansion for $150 on Craigslist (buy-in @40, Kmart clearance) Set of all 5 Scooby sets on Ebay for $359 ($11 to ship) (Buy-in at $95 over multiple Kmart clearances/purchases with points, etc.) 2x Hulk-Buster Smash for $43 each (shipping paid by buyer) via Bricklink (Buy-in at $15 each from Kmart) 1x Mirkwood Elf Army for $42 (shipping paid by buyer) on Bricklink (Buy is @16 Kmart Clearance) 2x Mirkwood Elf Army for $40 each (shipping paid by buyer) on Ebay (Buy in @16 Kmart Clearance)

2 Ekimu the Mask Makers for $140. This one gets more sob stories about it being priced above retail than anything else I've listed. Eclipse Starfighter for $22, buy-in was $3. Sofia the First Castle for $85, buy-in was $25. 4 polybag bundles for $18 ea, buy-in was $7. Used Loki minifig from a bulk lot for $7. Used Holiday Truck, w/o minifig, from a bulk lot for $15 shipped.

Now .... this thought has gotten me excited ... Emerald Knight-style Hogwarts Express ... full loco, couple of coaches. Heck, throw in a flying Ford Anglia if you must. Ready to be put on tracks, just supply your own PF. That would be SUCH a hit with both the HP crowd and the LEGO train community ....

Imagine UCS quality versions of Hogwarts Castle and/or Hogwarts Express.

I'm sitting this one out, too many red flags for me to feel confident. I have two and at least one will be a present. Good luck to everyone else!

@Max Profit Lego SW underwear on the DD board !!! ??

I had heard that the Nexo replacement may be Harry Potter re-launch... that would make sense I think as it would be the new "castle/medieval" type theme

Duplo+ for everyone!

That’s just creepy

Buy through Rakuten using the GIVE10 code for $10 off of $40. Have to choose TRU as the seller, and a cheap filler to get to $40, but it worked for me! Total was around $33.

Do make more re-releases please, but always in an improved way like you did with Falcon. UCS sets are simply great. I have them all but the older are not more up to date. And do NOT re-releases like TM...

They want everyone to have a 'meh'ry Christmas.

Lego 50%+ off clearance haul from KMart. These go with the polys posted above. I left plenty behind.

Maybe Tabby hijacked the delivery truck. A Mighty Girl blog article now has 30k reactions, 8.5k shares and 2k comments since yesterday and is a sticky post. I guess that´s where US demand is coming from. Those are similar figures to Lego´s own blurb from 2 weeks ago!

No he did not. At the end of the article is stated that he now earns is money from teaching others how to do what he did. So this article is totally made to increase his profits. The richest people during a gold rush are those who sell tools.....

The original quick flip story. Sanders Sold KFC for 2m Dollars and the company who bought it from him sold it on for almost 300, just 6 years later. If he had invested in Lego, it would have been all in on Joker Steamrollers.

Oh, and Admiral Sanders

Left overs, tis the season.

So the hope is for resellers to clear stock from every retailer, including Lego and then flip to an insatiable public? Mmmm....

Awake:

Wow just wow. You should really thrown in an air freshener and a pair of rubber gloves too.

Original box, bricks, figs and stickers. 100% complete. Hey LEGO, remake this ****!

If they are using a whole page of advertising space on this and selling it as "last chance" then they must be really hoping to move the remaining inventory soon. This used to trigger resellers to grab their wallets but it's more of a warning sign these days.

With the new Taj Mahal coming out from the "Vault", do we need to change the title of this thread to the Taking a Production Break thread.
