I know this was mentioned in the UCS thread, but probably worthy of its own. Hoth Bricks has pics and info on the new UCS X-Wing, Price will be $199.99 US and it looks like it will come out in May.

Nice, thanks for offering up the prize.

I have zero so far :-)

 

 

But if you want to avoid F5 and back order at LEGO Shop at Home this also could be the last stress free way to get them.

 

I predict that it goes out of stock Thursday afternoon at 2pm.

Lets see what happens.  It is fun.

 

And here I thought participation in F5 party was part of the HIP (Horde Initiation Process)

Wow lol I'm glad I got one earlier for my personal collection, so I guess there's 99 left now

Get on it! We need a prize!

And I'm guessing that they go out of stock at 11:30 am tomorrow :D

To liven it up I will send a free Microfighters X Wing (big bucks) to the person who guesses closest to the Toys R Us stock out time.

I am being serious.  (about sending one not about big bucks!)

 

 

Rules:

- You must post a predicted date & time in EST time for Toys R Us Stock Out Time on this thread by tonight Wednesday night at 12 Midnight EST.

- The person who is closest in date & time in to when it goes out of stock before or after your selected time wins.

- The recognized time that we will state that the set is out of stock will be either Jeff Mack's tracker showing it out of stock (if he doesn't mind and has that data when it happens) or if that is not an option it we will consider the first person posting here that states it is out of stock will be the time that we declare it out of stock and judge it  as the time for the winning entry posted tonight.

 

 

Post your prediction before midnight EST tonight!

Sounds like fun. Thanks for putting that together!

 

My guess is Thursday 1/29/15 @ 3:17PM EST.

Thursday 1401pm EST. It's like contestant's row in The Price is Right, mwahaha!

Ex Astris, Scientia.

Now that is precision!

A funny side note but I actually built my microfighter x-wing today so it's almost like it's meant to be

Let me drink my tea and I'll get back to you

Prediction: Thursday 1/29/2015 3:33PM EST

Does Toys "R" Us ship sets in boxes or do they slap labels on the side like Walmart and Target? I've never bought a set from Toys "R" Us before.

I predict Thursday at 2:30 PM Eastern standard time. Come on big money!!!

Thanks trekgate!!

I predict this is going nowhere.

Red 5 or this thread?

TRU ship sets in boxes.

 

Target usually ship in boxes too

I have never had them slap labels on.

I did get a shipment of 2 in the real Lego box with a label.

I have not opened but I am hopeful.

Most time toys r us shipments are loose in oversized boxes and I have an 90% success rate at them being not beat up.

But I am within 2 states of their warehouse.

Some people have very bad shipments.

I have not.
