  1. Now: "Eh, this set is a dust collector." "Lego really screwed the pooch on this one!" "Ewoks are so LAME! ROTJ is the worstest!" First Signs of EOL: "Guaranteed massive winner!" "ZOMG SO MANY AWESOME MINIFIGS! SO MANY PROFITS!!" "F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5 F5" Book it. Edit: once again, the proofreader has been sacked.

  11. Since the (expected) EOL of the TH, I would really not be surprised that TLG will stop producing SOH. It can take a long while before they will clear out stock, but with the 15% discount they can sell a few. I ordered at least one last weekend and I'm planning to buy more this weekend, of course I will check the seal codes. I really wouldn't be surprised if SOH retires within a 2 year lifespan and becoming one of the rarest large sets out there.. it's at least not hoarded. is the set really that bad? In my opinion it isn't. Ed is right about the 'weight'; this set contains a lot of large pieces. Furthermore I think they did a good job designing the building and don't forget it is a extremely difficult roof and design this building in fact has. I like the set very much, but perhaps this is because I did the road trip of my life in that beautiful country of Australia.. I really like it that almost nobody is buying this even @ a good discount. 225 euro is great in my eyes, that's almost TB retail here in Holland. Do you like Taj Mahal? or the Statue of Liberty? I don't.. but when I see now how good these sets are performing I really don't want to miss out a great landmark set. For me it's a no-brainer, it is still part of the great landmark sets. I really think this will be a big surprise for a lot of people that it will go EOL sooner than you think. Demand in the aftermarket? Everybody loves rare and exclusive sets.. the rarer, the more desirable it will become.

  12. Yes it was. I replied within 15 minutes of the ad being posted and luckily I was the first one. Drove out 20 minutes and grabbed it immediately before the seller could rethink it. When I got there he said after I called there were another 3-4 people right after me. Lucky!

  17. Interesting twist at Kmart.com...on 21113, it says "Coming Soon! Release date: 12/15/2014" Perhaps this is the same date from Fry's (I cancelled that order). Now, is this just the official Kmart "batch" or is this a second wave that will be sent to all retailers? I wonder if some selling would be in order a couple days before that.

  23. You forgot the reseller-special though: anyone who managed to get R2D2 in between TOOS will get an option to buy (for MSRP) specially re-released 10179 - it will show up at LEGO Shop at Home page for those accounts that purchased r2d2

  24. Sold a Lone Ranger lot including the train/mine/colby city/cavalry for $210. Glad to see these yellow boxes disappear as they are not great. I was warned, I know. I will hold onto some trains for a while as I believe in them more than the others. Luckily my buy-in was pretty low on all these sets, generally 30-50% off.

  30. For sets where just the figs are missing it might be interesting to have the original bags if they are numbered, and the set is bigger. It can make the build quite a bit easier to not have everything effectively in one, large pile.

  33. Mine shipped too. Let's hope that the boxes are at least in decent shape. I'm surprised because I still have GEs and SCs on backorder from Walmart.ca, and those are increasingly looking like they'll be cancelled. Also, love your name. I'm glad I could help out a fellow BPer, Canadian and Always Sunny fan

  35. When a drunk driver hits ur sisters car and totalls it. Hit and run. We found the guy today. He is a cop?!?!?! You all will likely be seeing me on the news soon. Hours of rage and I've finally composed myself.. Just for the record this Jerk has not been arrested. He us suspended with pay. Huge cover up going on. Again, drunk driver hit and run... Done by a cop. Justice will be served.

  41. I especially like this last bit... (emphasis on MF my own).... I personally have no ambition to pay crazy amounts of $ for a new or used 10179, but this bodes well for those of us who hold a faint hope (a new hope?) that Lego will re-release this beast!

  45. Sell it and buy a quality used one to build. The set is easily worth 2500 EURO. If it is a First Edition, even more than that. You can easily clear 1000 EURO after taxes and commissions IMO. It is found money. I have a few myself, but I am holding onto mine. It's a personal choice, but maybe not a wise one.
