True especially with the upcoming movies.  I do speculate Lego will capitalize on demand for sire on specific older sets like 10179 MF and maybe 10175 vader.  Another 10179 will fly off the shelves like the Tumbler did for many, many months (even if it was a $500 set).  I doubt we'll see the other ones remade but what do I know :)

If a 10179 remake does happen, we can probably expect more news coverage about our investing hobby though...

​I think there will way too many new STAR WARS vehicles and characters to waste time on older UCS remakes.

 

I ordered 1 from Lego shop at home and received an email estimating the ship date as June 7th. Right now I'm just a collector but the limit of 2 had me thinking of grabbing a 2nd one to put aside for later. 

Nice avatar, ya dingus!

there's going to be 100% another UCS xwing.

 

it's going to be blue, and the engines will be half/half just like the trailer in force awakens. The differences are just enough that they will definitely make another ucs xwing. Can't see it happening any other way.

 

As for MF, I hope it stays dead, or if they do remake it, put in a ton of proprietary pieces to make it worth the price tag. If it isn't, I wont buy it.

Someone posted on a different thread to contact customer service if your order has been on backorder for a long time.  I did that yesterday, and they are going to ship mine (ordered in mid-April) out tomorrow - express delivery!  Thank you (don't remember where the thread was or who said to do this)

​Probably in the "My Order Status" thread:

 

so 10240 x-wing must really _REALLY_ be retiring since those QFLL folks over at target have _FURTHER_ jacked up the price to $282.99 from $275.99 where I was sorely tempted to buy a couple of more earlier today but at $283 - no way.  that's just cold.  kudos to you fatman.

​It's based off of Amazon's 3rd party current sell which is $282.99 currently...

​I think that was in response to me.  I never called but meant to.  As it turned out, today my cc got charged for it and my Red 5's status went from Backordered to In Process.

there's going to be 100% another UCS xwing.

 

​good to know.  guess I should throw my 10240's away.

unrelated somehow my following this thread got dropped.  thought that stopped happening on the new BP.  Its ok but I definitely cannot become unsubscribed on this thread since my red five give away some time ago and postings is part of what got all of this red five hoopla going.

Location of your trash can please?

So I placed two orders of 1 peace Red5 few hours ago on LEGO Shop at Home... and now both order status are cancelled. Is this the end? Time to start buying from else where.

On the other hand, my order of birthday cakes remains in process... 

Update: just tried ordering Tower bridge as well and was cancelled right away... looks like anything With "will ship in 30 days" are getting cancelled right now

Sure you didn't get banned from LEGO Shop at Home? Seems like a super fast turn around on getting an order canceled, especially since you can still place orders on the items.

Well I just ordered my second one from SAH.  I bought the other one from the Lego store months back so hopefully it goes through.

Interesting

Don't think I am banned cuz my order for birthday cakes placed today is "in-process"

What is your order status?

Don't think I am banned cuz my order for birthday cakes placed today is "in-progress"

​Tac your order is not safe until it shows "in warehouse". "In-progress" means it still has to be reviewed and approved to go to PFSweb for fulfillment. If your orders are just getting reviewed by a bot they should go to "in warehouse" in an hour or so. If it is longer than that then your orders are flagged for manual review by a person and they take much longer to get approved - that is when it is time to slow down. If you orders are getting cancelled in 10 mins or so by a bot then your are banned.

​I should have said Lego Customer Service told me it was scheduled to ship June 7th.  Looks like my order went back to Backordered from In-Process today.

Congrats & condolences.

I just got an email for an order with the 10240 from LEGO Shop at Home pity, was looking forward to getting an X-Wing soon. Oh well, will just have to wait :-)

"Unfortunately, the item(s) listed below are currently out of stock and it will be a little longer before we can ship them to you."
