10188 - UCS: Death Star

Any idea when the Death Star will be discontinued? It's been around about 4 years...way past normal set lifespans in stores. Thoughts?

      Hanging is by far the best way to display it.  It has a hollow core, so we used a small piece of wood painted black with an eye bolt and picture hanging wire.  That way its supported from the bottom.

      I think this pretty much sums it up. A five year old boy (my son) watching Star Wars for the first time ever. The Death Star is... fascinating.  When it is gone (whenever, if ever, that finally happe

    That's the kind of buying power TabbyBoy has.

    It´s a Danish ban hammer trick - we won´t sell ANYONE our most popular items for a few weeks then resellers will unload their stock and we´ll ban them all when they order 5 of each once they are back online. Brilliant.

    It seems TLG has hired a psychological counselor to play mind-tricks with us.

    The far more devastating Jedi-mind-tricks are coming when The Force Awakens. EV, Sandcrawler, R5, S1, and Tie all go Sold out for a couple days muhahaha.

    Well, my serious prediction is that EV will go before R5.  Limit 1 vs. 2 being the main evidence.  The sets were released in close proximity to each other.  EV also comes in a big, bulky box of the sort that Lego appears to be phasing out, and undoubtedly involved many more unique pieces (certainly lots of unique minifigs).

    I don't think one was there, who knows if they were doing something on their system.  I just got a chance to check my tracker logs and it was only 13 seconds from the time it was last checked at OOS to In Stock and I clicked on the link immediately. Unless superman grabbed it, I don't think it was there. Damn you Target!!!

    Q: Is this an appropriate place for Darth Vader's "Nooooooooo!!!" from Episode 3?

    A: No. Never speak of it again.

    Who can blame them. They are selling like hot cakes to resellers.
