I got an email saying the DS I ordered was out of stock and would be a little longer before shipment.

When did you place the order?

When did you place the order?

Last night @7:15 EST

I received the same email. Very common for LEGO shop at home.

Its available to order again on Lego.com
Ship date Aug 9

Thanks, in for 2...

Damn, Gone in 60 seconds. 

Anyone else get any? Just curious...

Nope, too slow...but ill be practicing... https://instagram.com/p/4Jvmwtk1HB/

...to pull the trigger fast

I'm going to keep a couple. I really don't want to return the 4 I have (others got cancelled) since they're all shipped pristine in the original Lego shipping box too. 

 

Nobody should be returning there Death Star, take my word within a year after it retires it will be at least $1000.     Ed

Ed, Let them do whatever they want.  10188 isn't a 2-6 week flip.  Could be a 6-12 month hold if a newer version comes out though (for a nice profit as we saw what the panic "pop" will look like- jumped to over $500 in 3 days).  Veteran members and investors already gave solid advice,  Patience is a virtue and learned the hard way (usually after kids, with age or hands-on experience ).

But when will it retire? I wouldn't be surprised if I retire before the Death Star.

Perfect, except that after #5, you're supposed to loop back to #2 a few times before moving on to #6. It's sort of like Chutes & Ladders.

chutes and ladders? Holy old school board games batman!!!

Damn, Gone in 60 seconds. 

Nick Cage with Eleanor is prob a member here.  Now we just need a picture of them in a TRU parking lot

Ain't that the truth. I've long since learned to "control what I can control" and leave the rest. I might not have as much capital, storage space, or time to hunt for bargains as some on here, but I can be patient. 

That last line? That's the real value of things like youth sports. I"m glad my sons have learned how to lose--some seasons quite a lot  --but it will pay them well in the future. 

DS will have its time. 

Hold your horses guys. So Shop has this on the DS page. "We are currently making more, so please check back soon for availability". 

So my LDC has 29R5 Death Stars in stock... in other words, packaged the week which ended July 18 if I counted correctly... at least 4 days before the website update.

Any thoughts?

Yup, they're making more but mine is still on backorder.

Walmart Canada just got some in stock online; I snagged one quickly and will pick up down south while visiting family.  Shipping up north with Walmart prohibitively expensive.

They are making more...)....for sure.

I have one Death Star which I've always wanted to build. Glad I didn't buy another now!

Target shipped me one without a shopping box. Definitely a returned item. I'll have to weigh this and inspect it carefully. I have a couple SSDs in this condition that I don't regret holding onto.

small restock according to EU inventory of 31 units although i would suspect tmrw's data may show us a larger restock (as otherwise it should have gone out of stock today already)

Just received mine from TRU Mint in box

Just got mine from Shop. Code is 29R4 I think. The R looks like a H. The other one is smudged off almost completely. I was ship in a half opened Lego shipper inside a bigger box.
