Still 72% too expensive.

I never really understood the negativity around this set. It offers a lot of value in the bricks and minifigures and has a strong nostalgia factor. I think it will do well post retirement.

    One Day Flash Sale (UK Only) MF at £149.99. Be Quick.

  • One thing I have noticed is that sets are plateauing at "a" price at n months after retiring. 10197 is around £300, it still has not increased in the 18 months since I sold my last one. 10211

  • Though this version totally blows the original away (and is from around where I live):

You'll be fine, my monstrous orders had no problem apart form one phone call telling me off for ordering 99x (33x3) Poe X-Wings ;-)

I cannnot see whats to rave about with this new tank as it is smaller and more boring than the previous 2 versions and has no real wow factor regarding minifigs or design.

So was Chima.

Indeed and they have plenty of time to think about that until it retires.

I just got a big Star Wars set at 72% off the local RRP, you trying to compare that to Chima, really?

This cost be €37 each. RRP is €130, Smyths have it "reduced" to €110, I'll sell all 3 on local sites for probably €90/€100 each with no fees. What's not to like?

Your the boss mate if it your QF'ing then fair enough but I don't see the investment potential in this.

Couldn't resist another few Poe's X-Wing for 30.50 each in the Tesco 3-4-2. I said I wouldn't buy any more of these but that was when £40 each was looking like the best offer a couple of months back. £30 quid each is a no brainer when you think about it for this set (staff member got me extra 10% off).

Poe's potential lifespan would be increased since his appearance in another movie from new saga. I'd say there will be plenty of opportunities ahead to get Poe's X-Wing for great price. I've got from Tesco Final Duel and Naboo Star FIghter since bot are going to be retired soon.

Lego 60080 City Spaceport £17 at Tesco Direct, due to 3 for 2 netted to £11.33 1f60e.png .

You can place multiple orders and be greedy! All mine are now ready for collection ;-)

LOL... crazy, innit? I checked HKUD earlier this morning and noticed that the price of the 41106 Friends Pop Star Tour Bus was massively reduced to £12! I've just emailed them to price-match my recent huge order of 198 sets (33x3 twice!). That means I should get these £50 sets for £8 each which isn't too bad a discount. My last order of 99x volcano sets was price-matched with no problem.

Oh yes, I need to get my 30 Spaceports price-matched too.

I hope they're not beginning to think there's an outside chance that I may, just may, be a reseller!

Watch Tesco like a hawk as I'm ready to pounce again!
