I just got into Legos last month, mostly as a collector. I'm glad I at least got one Batwing for myself!

I think this set will still do quite well as it appeals to anyone who liked either the campy Batman series or the 90s animated series on top of Batman fans.

Plus, from a build standpoint it looks good.

Somebody needs buy all remaining Funhouse stocks at TRU so the REAL fun can begin

How many pieces of track is it supposed to come with?  My son and I built one the other day and it had 4 pieces.  In the instructions it only shows to use 2 pieces.

I've got 23 but now that it is finally retired I would order more if they go on sale.

agreed. plus it does remind me of the 1990s Animated Series which is a GOOD THING

It's only supposed to come with two pieces, one of each style.  You hit the jackpot!

That is so weird, because the Batcave my son and I opened and built came with two of bag #2 and I was able to build an entirely new scaffolding section to house the batsuits.

Nice, I would buy a lottery ticket if I were you

No kidding.  I have never had anywhere near that kind of luck, and I am a flipper so I have opened tons of sets.  The best I ever did was an additional small bag from Hulk 6868 that holds Hawkeye's head and bow.

I think all the new Batman sets are so good that they are going to stifle the growth of the sets starting to retire to some exert. I think Lego hit it out of the park with this new line of Batman.

 

That being said the funhouse is still a winner, simply because it is such a good build and you end up getting so much for your money(Especially for all of us who bought around $30). It will also help that it doesn't look like Harley Quinn is going to be in any of the upcoming sets.

 

I have a lot of them and will be picking up more next time it goes on sale.

Great news.  While I only have a few, it's better than none.  Anyone have any idea on what else was retired yesterday?  I'm sure there was a thread if someone can refer me to it.  (I looked and couldn't find.)

 

I know there is a thread somewhere...but here is what I recall off the top of my head:

 

Suggestion for the mods - have a sticky thread, something like "just retired", with the set name, date and country. Might be useful perhaps. And maybe similar thread for "just had "retiring soon" tag added"?

 

There is a whole sub forum for EOL related discussion.  The top thread which is pinned has all the details of latest retirements including yesterdays flurry.

is sold out online at TRU and lego.com.  You may be able to get some from in store pickup orders.  I think this set is going to explode.

call me pessimist but I doubt it will explode anytime soon. It is so well stocked among investors I feel everyone here have at least 10 of these. It will take some time but enventually become a big winner. 

Yeah, I don't think it's going away yet.  One of my stores was pulling out a fresh shipment of 4 cases when they were putting out all of the new super heroes sets.

Question.  I was lucky enough to get a few sealed cases of these from TRU.  Will there be a perk to selling as a sealed case or opening the case and selling individual? 

Don't count your chickens just yet.. It has been sold out here in the u.k a few months now, while it reached aroud 75 quid over Christmas, you can get them for 50-60. RRP here was 40 quid. My advice, keep hold of them for a couple of years.

Sealed case, yes, if someone wants 3 and they are mint, well, it might help you sell them. I have Jabba's palaces in cases, I prize them somewhat, a box this big is prone to creasing.

In 20-30 years time, the box (case) will be worth something too.

yea probably 2 years at least for this set
