It appears this launched today- technic builds with fish skins that is more kickstarter type project. Hadn't heard anything about this. I think they would make a cool display or desk piece. 

The question is how many and long term value?

Yes, but could you order two of anything?

No.  But my order of one super pack, one koi, and one of each skin arrived yesterday and consisted of 2x 81000, 2x 81001, 2x 81002, and 2x 81003.  There's no special box with all inside or "81004" Forma super pack.

I supported a couple, wait and see if I will be getting them all

Got it - I must have received the Super Pack yesterday, since I received 1x each and got the following email today:

Just shown up today, no email no tracking no nothing. Still a couple short tho

 

Just curious on people's take on this set. 

Are you quick flipping for a smaller profit or sitting on this one?

Through Indiegog it was either $85 if you got the Super Pack or ~$90 if you bought each piece separately.

I went with super pack so like Quacs said, around $85.

Lego Forma = easy money.  I wonder if it will go higher with time.  There’s only 16 available on eBay now...

$500 next Christmas

this sets a good precedent for the BL AFOL contest sets

The key differences is that the BL sets will not be badged LEGO, but the types of sets would have greater appeal than Forma.  ONly 2500 of each set made so very curious where it ends up...and my fave phrase: make for a great case study

How many case studies do you have going on right now?

Apparently he works for amazon...

People who still have this set, anyone willing to provide a very hi-res scan of the skins?  I'm not looking at recreating or selling them, I want to try to model them.  I'm this guy: https://grabcad.com/dk/models. 

Interesting. So will anything from the campaign be exclusive?

Wow.. Glad I sold my last one a couple of months ago.

That's because its  " Available in UK only. "

Since lego stopped launching regional exclusive set, I would think it’s just a matter of time for it to show up here in the states 

Forma isn't continuing so is this simply selling off excess production that was allocated to the UK?
