Don't overthink this set.  It's a winner.  Batman is always a winner.  They need to move inventory for other big boxed sets.  This set will be completely irrelevant in the Batman movie LEGO set world in a few months and they need them gone.  People will miss it when it's gone.

How many times do people like us need to tell folks about this set's potential?

C + 1 / E

Where C = the number of complaints about the horde/hoarding on this thread and E = E of Emazers comments about people being sorry when it's gone.

I think this has to be rephrased in cryptic format to trigger the buying fenzy of the horde. =)

Went To Lego at Tysons Corner Va, Got 4 Tumblers they had about 20 of them, I wanted 5 but only 4 were mint near perfect boxes, and I used by VIP Point for a Slave 1 for $148  i will get one more Tumbler which will make 30, and now I have 10 Slave 1, will have 20-25 by end of next year. So if you don't have any Tumblers yet or only a few if you have the room and money don't regret getting more.   Ed

znj, great point. i'll do my best Ed Mack cryptic post impression.

"Some sets will win, some will lose. Some were born to avoid the blues. Oh, the Batman franchise never ends. It goes on and on and on and on. Tumblers driving in the twilight before the frantic chase resumes since remembered it was but alas, no more. "

Concubines on the other hand...

I think the Tumbler will be a winner. But I don't believe for a second that Batman is always a winner.

Nice job.

Try going in with a Jason hockey mask and Freddy gloves. That's how it's done.

Touche'

How come emazers' receipt doesn't show any free promotional gift?   I would expect the store employee to give out at least a free calendar, or/and the free christmas ornament.

 

he don't want the free gift to ding his box 

Speaking of which, the last of my tumblers / GBH came today. Not a mark on the tumbler. But the GBH was a GBP (ginger bread pancake)

Why did Emazers cross the road? .....

 

To load up his second truck.
