Here is a Brick Fan review to boot.

I like this better than the Easter set. At least, it contains lots of tan pieces and other neutral colors.

as reported by @lodibricks this is on sale @ LEGO Shop at Home after you place it in your cart. I don't remember last years seasonals being marked down...

Confirmed. Limit at 5 at $7.98

Thanks for sharing that here. I'm surprised it hadn't sold out by now. Perhaps the others hadn't lasted this long, and that kind of concerns me. I'll probably get banned over buying multiples of this dog of a set. Wakka wakka.

That's a Dog?

That's a Dog?

Apparently a real dog...[emoji4]

Yeah. I bought and built because I want one of everything, but if I hadn't missed out on last year's date night set, I probably would have passed on this. Resale gains seem unlikely.

That set is going to give me nightmares.  A dog that rips out the hearts of its victims after it shoots them with a bow and arrow is NOT a kids toy.

Oh...it's on sale...in for 4.

Can't help but thing back to the brick built animals from 2014 (like the Bat and the Snowman) and how those didn't move quickly for Lego either.  Meanwhile, the vignettes moves at lightning speed last year.

Maybe this is a message Lego will listen to.

seeing the 2 you gave an example to were the 2 they reprinted more with 2015 codes probably not lol

Snowman was pretty solid though.  

Besides vignettes require lots of thinking and design by LEGO, especially at a 9.99 price point and we all know they don't like to much thought and effort these days.

Well, I thought about that - why would they reissue them if they weren't good sellers the first time around?  But, to a degree, it makes sense - it makes it look like they have more product on the shelf.  And, if you don't like this year's animal, there's always 2014's animal.

Who knows?  Maybe having two different animals on the shelf at the same time increases sales?

With production capacity at its limit it kind of makes sense for TLG to produce slow movers (read: subpar sets, which are easier to design anyway) to prevent sets from selling out too fast and to have a greater variety of sets on the shelves.

This set sucks. What do dogs have to do with Valentine's? The dog holding a tiny bow (dogs are underrated archers) made for a minifigure just takes the cake. Give this to you sweetheart if you want to break up.

Oops too late!
