Yeah, if there is a set I really like and think is worthy of an investment, I think it's good to spread out your purchase over multiple retailers.  Obviously, with a set like raptor escape, that is exclusive to walmart and lego.com that throws a monkey wrench to land a lot more.  So, regardless, I just think it's wise to spread out the 5 limit over multiple purchase events.  And not try and bag them all at once.  I think that just screams "reseller" and could get you flagged by the management that fulfill the order. 

Unless you have some money and are having a jurrasic world birthday party for your kid and these are the party favors.

Raptor Escape back to sold out on lego.com



Have a sneaking suspicion the same is bound to happen to Trex and IR in the coming weeks.

Good job guys

Just had two of these ship from lego.com from an order placed a couple of weeks ago. Yay!

Just got a back order from LEGO Shop at Home ... seal codes 20R5.

That's comforting for those sitting on REs. 

Has anyone seen any restocks in stores?

The walmarts, targets and toysrus stores have not had any skus on the shelf for at least two weeks. Completely gone. Most toy department managers I've talked to said they are not expecting much

The larger Targets around me just reset their Lego aisles today. They have shelf tags for all 5 JW sets (minus Walmart exclusive RE), but none of the stores have any stock and no one seems to know when they will be getting anything shipped to them.

I didn't find any RE at the many Walmarts I stopped at from metro Orlando to Atlanta on my recent vacation, despite the inventory tracker saying they were there.

Looks like there was a restock in europe today, most sets got at least a few hundred.

Found Raptor Escape at the Valley Fair LEGO Store in San Jose, CA.  All Jurassic World sets had been restocked and they were limiting purchases to one per customer.

OT but I will be in that store tomorrow. Did they have any R5, ToO, PS, or PC?

Same here.  I have an order of 5 on the way.   I took it to the limit.

I saw a restock (4 shiny new boxes) in a Walmart in North Carolina. The walmart stock tracker didn't have it, but there they were after being gone for weeks. So perhaps a restock, or perhaps just found old stock. 

The date stamps were 09R5 (earlier run) so perhaps it was just old stock found in the back, or perhaps old stock shipped to them after being in some distribution warehouse for a long time.

 

I picked up 5 at a Lego store in NJ and their seal codes were older ( I want to say 07R5) as well. The store has all the JW sets as well as 2 ToO

No R5, ToO, or PS.  I don't remember about PC.

Raptor Escape has moved to "call to check product availability".  Usually when it hits this status, it seems retirement is imminent.

Well disregard... it moved back to sold out.   Which status is it lego?

I don't believe LEGO Shop at Home status messages at all.  By the above logic, the JW video game for XBox 360 and Wii U would also mean retirement is imminent.

But usually when the video games go to that status on lego.com, they never come back online.  Doesn't mean you still can't find them in the clerance section of walmart 3 years later...  Lego video games are not really a marker, IMO.

If you type "call to check" in the search it appears as call to check but then you click & it says sold out. I would bet it's done.

DS was both Call to Check and Sold Out in the last few weeks was it not?

Yes but there's no "we're making more" as there is on the DS.

There wasn't on DS either for a good week.

Actually, it was call to check and sold out BEFORE they put the "we are making more" message... hence the "PANIC!!!"
