I bought all of these from Kmart the other day as my kids love the games and characters.  I do question the profitability of these as some other lines seem like duds, but who knows.  

Time will tell. My son has been bugging me weekly asking when the movie is coming out.

I saw these available at kmart.com, and was tempted but didn't buy.  Looking for the best quick flip, I was leaning towards the 75825 PPS. It's not the biggest set (easier to ship), and has the lowest ppb - especially for what looks like a fair number of big chunky pieces.  Also like that it's a pirate ship, I like the play features of the ship, the fact that it's on wheels, the paddle wheel and oar motion, etc.  And I like the minifigs the best.  I don't know about everyone else, but when I play Angry Birds, Bomb Bird is far and away my favorite bird and for now, he seems exclusive to this set.  I think this set is the top of the line.

Thanks to your post I ordered a PPS Sunday for $33 after points and coupons and it arrived today.  I finished the first 3 of 6 numbered bags and they realy did give this $60 MSRP set the UCS treatment. The single instruction book (cardboard backed to keep it neat) is done realy well,  bound book orientation so it doesn't flop closed. It is printed on light blue paper which I find makes it easier to see the pieces. The printed sails also come cardboard backed to keep them flat and are in their own package. There are NO stickers and some neat new printed elements, and a green apple!  So far the build is pretty straight forward, fun and fast paced. Will post a pic tomorrow when it is complete. No clue how this set will do but it may be the poor man's Sea Cow or a good substitute to popping those seals on a MISB set. 

 

All of the sets were available at Legoland CA last week but I didn't buy any as the theme doesn't interest me for play or investment.

Yeah, I think I'm going to need that boat.

Saw them at my local TRU today.  Not my cup of tea, but I was impressed with the sturdiness of the boxes!

Why not buy it with 20% off...hot items for at least a month.

 

Can someone help tell me if I should invest in Angry Bird Series? If yes which set?

Thank you so much!!!

This is one theme that I am not excited about from an investment point of view . But I am still getting one of each as I am a completionist and would like to have it as part of my personal collection . 

My gut says no. Apart from being popular on mobile phones and tablets more than a year ago, I don't see why. The only way this might become attractive is if the movie is a huge success and it triggers numerous sequels.

I won't pass these up at 75% off.

They've barely been released. Probably far too early to make such a determination.

So, next time you are at Walmart for toilet paper?

Should I invest in X set the month it comes out? No. This goes for every theme ever times infinity.

With the only exception perhaps LEGO Shop at Home exclusives for which you want a large inventory (say 50) and you have no other way to buy them than the lego shop.

Yes but not yet. I think the little pirate ship will do best. I'll probably go 50 deep on it

I just bought the castle angry birds set for my kids. It looks neat and we had a toys r us coupon thanks to the truth thread and rewards points. I will update this with what I think after we build it.

I'm not really impressed by theme and don't expect them to do anything investment wise.

I do, however like the Pirate Ship and the one with the hot dog stand. I'll get those for myself but that's it.

My son likes them. I like them. They are licensed, so that could help. Not a huge winner, but if it is a short production run, you never know.

Will have to be 50% off or more for me unless it's a very short life for this theme. 

Hello to all the kind folks out there that has helped given me the inputs I was looking for... Thank you so very much... Appreciate it

 

I was out of time for a couple of days and hence the delayed response.

 

Thank you so much for kindly sharing
