Posted this video on another thread but I felt it needed its own thread. At 2:26, he mentions a UCS tumbler coming soon!!! 

No idea where thebrickshow got that info from but I'd love to see pictures of it soon! 

 

 

Haven't seen this one with a discount yet.. Don't have good feelings about this one

I will buy this anytime I see it.  I think this will be a big winner in a few years.

Same here.  Good plan.  Whether its availability is a short time frame or regular cycle no one knows for sure and having as many of you can on this set will be a good plan.

Profit.. It's not the USA where I live ;-)

You don't think the Tumbler will make a profit in EU? What makes you say that?

Ahhh I see. You can't see the country flags when reading on the app. I guess you'll just have to sell to 'merica then!

Thanks for the discussion and advice mr Rockefeller. Pretty noob question on my part after being on forums for couple years. Pulled the trigger at local Lego bm. Oh and they had a lot in stock after zero for months. Guessing the production is ramping up. Thx again all.

Sry mods for dbl posts. iPhone acting funny.

Price has dipped a little on amz. Don't know if we will see much more than 300 on this. 

My local lego stores are sold out and don't have a place for them any longer.

The stores never leave places for sets they don't have on hand. They will always fill that space with something else. This is not an indicator of retirement for any set.

oh no I agree this is certainly not "retired-ing". Just saying they haven't had them out on the shelf for a few days and appears they're not expecting more in, at least for now.

potential wise, you guys think the tumbler or town hall will do better?  TH is currently gone so it's appreciating as we speak, and the Tumbler is out of stock and maybe just because of the season rush and demand.  Not sure when it'll officially EOL.   reason i'm asking is because someone has a tumbler and is looking to trade for a town hall and i have extra town hall's and was interested in the tumbler.  just not sure i want to do it. 

Since misery loves company, if Tumbler is retired I will eat mine.

Didn't the Tumbler just come out in September? Keep your town halls and buy Tumblers this spring when they are every where.

I will have way more Tumblers than TH, why do some people think the Tumbler will retire, it just came out and its one of Lego's top sellers and they have the License to at least the end of 2016.

no this is good, i didn't say it would retire.  this is why i asked if i should just keep the town hall's since they are gone.  tumbler prices are most likely just due to the holiday and being out of stock.  that's what i needed to know thanks.  i won't do it.  

On the SAH website, both Santa Workshop and Tumbler say they are temporary out of stock but busy making more and to check back soon.  Other the other hand, HH, SC, TH, GE, AA say sold out on the website.

I highly doubt that a set that is only 4 months old and as popular as the Tumbler is will be going eol any time soon

If you buy it me

 

Not eating the only one I have as it is going to make a rather nice display piece once it is built

OK, If the Tumbler retires on or before sept 2015 then I will eat a tumbler.

Why not!

 

 

 

 

Now that Tumbler I would eat

All this talk of the Tumbler retiring at the end of 2014... does it make sense? No.

 

Think of the $ LEGO spent in development and production, only to limit profits to a tiny selling window marred with slower-than-demand production.

 

And doesn't LEGO dislike the price-gouging perception caused by the secondary market? (but maybe appreciates the value-perception added by same, at least behind closed doors)

 

This is going to be around for awhile. And I don't even have one to eat...
