Amazon is doing a deal on LEGO Star Wars 75100: First Order Snowspeeder, for £20.00.

50% off

First Order Snowspeeder is down to 20£ (-50%) on amazon.co.uk

Okay price if you want to build it I guess. Not touching this one myself.

It is really cheap, but an underwhelming set. I might order 3 together with the nicely discounted Dr Who set.

Kylo Ren´s and pretty much all TFA are 35 % off too. Just very doubtful about their post EOL performance.

See, i keep wondering about kylos shuttle.  It's going a bit under the radar and is a big set.  With parents rushing for mf's, x wings and ties is this the set that gets missed until it's too late? 

Will it appear in Ep 8 and will lego do an instant remake with a wing fix or will they have other set priorities leaving a gap.

For me its a 40% off minimum gamble.

Asda Direct have a 75105 Falcon and Kylo Ren’s Shuttle combo for £135. 40% discount on these and I’m all over them.  I was flipping Falcons at £150 in Jan with the post holiday shortage.

Yup, the only one that I like is 75105, but with all the articles about 10179 last year I'm afraid this one is going to be hoarded.

Also goes to show how inflated the prices are if -35% or even -50% is not enough.

I don't see Dr Who in stock on amazon.co.uk? It was at 35£ a few months ago.

Me too. Might also be an indication that they are dropping the line altogether to make place for the next movie. I'm not really a fan of this run, so have not invested in many sets myself. I like the discounts on the Clone Turbo Tank™ (75151) and Captain Rex's AT-TE™ (75157) on Amazon a lot though. Land war vehicles are always going to do well, I think.

It seems I bought one of the last available DR. Who's, then Likely to come back in stock though.

I don't particularly like the prospects of the 75105 Millennium Falcon either. It is one of those iconic pieces that will be rehashed multiple times. I did get myself many of 75102 Poe's X-wings though, but that is most likely because I cannot stop buying things that are Orange (as a Dutch guy ) 

The Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum (76060) has a 30% discount (on NL prices) now on Amazon.co.uk and 20% when compared to UK prices. It's a retail limited set, so I think it's quite the bargain.

How limited is this set going to be? I suspect it might be more of an Exo than an Antman due to over hoarding. I can't bring myself to pull the trigger on a SH set at just 20% off.

Even the Art and Hobby shop have it, not that limited

If the movie does really well this might be a decent buy, but it's still risky.

Exclusive has gotten an entire new meaning. Limited does not exist anymore. Production never ceases for popular products. 

Seems like Lego wants its products to become famous and legendary in a different way. 

Instead of a Ferrari, they persue VW Beatle. 

In short... They do not want to be famous anymore from the scarce 10179 sets. They want famous exo-suits. Famous cause in 30 years all will remember the set as the one everyone had when they were young.

I think it is an interesting item, but limited indeed is less strict these days. Online it is not easy to find in Europe yet, so I'll take the bet. I think the design of the set is really great, so it's worth the risk

Very easy to find Dr strange in UK, was also available in recent argos 3 for 2 so you could of got for 33% off just after release date.

 

Was also in asda today and they are also selling it

You just earned yourself some karma there, Haay!

Always happy to help out a fellow Brickpicker.  

I'm avoiding Kylo's shuttle as LEGO are bound to re-release it with better wings rendering the current version a poor investment IMHO. I also had the chance to buy a lot of WALL-E at £25 each but they were last year's meaning a likelyhood of the dodgy neck where I can't be bothered to deal with customer complaints.

After the Argos fiasco, I don't buy sets in poor boxes at any price unless I intend to part them out.

At the moment, I'm taking advantage to Tesco's current Clubcard deals. I already have over £1,000 in points to spend so that's Xmas sorted! ;-)

That Brickwatch site has 75105 listed with a Lego RRP price of €178.86 for some reason.

Ah, thanks! Goes to show I'm still new, eh 

But I'm glad I hadn't pulled the trigger yet. Is this considered a good deal? Seems like it, since P&P aren't that much in this case (about €6,- for both together).

Edit: nevermind, followed the advice and looked at brickwatch.net, which answered my question. Ordered the sets plus Poe's X-wing.
