Ideas #005: 21104 - NASA Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover

Featured Replies

On Lego germany you can order 5 pieces. I wouldnt bank on that this time. I guess lego underestimated the demand for 21002, but see 21003 which is available everywhere. On the other hand BTTF is much more famous than the NASA theme.

  • I'm 99% sure the Curiosity rover is gone for good.  I've checked with the powers responsible multiple times, just to be sure.  The remaining 1% uncertainty is just a result of my own naive hope, becau

    Most likely my last post on this thread.  I sold my last 21104 for $800 FBM back in November 2021.  This was by far the best investment I ever made.  I would go as far as putting 21104 as the PER

I assume you mean 21102 & 21103, not the architecture sets? :)

 

Is 21104 new out? It says 2013 year on the BP but I have not noticed it available anywhere before.

yes you are right my fault :) 21104 is available at 27th of january, but someone one ebay.de has a copy, so i guess it is maybe available in lego shops

maryland lego stores have them with a limit of 1 a person 

Mine arrived today, not sure if I should keep or flip. Suggestions?

I think you should keep it. The US LEGO Shop at Home shows that the set will ship in about two weeks, but there may be some impatient buyers on eBay who want that set right away.

I`d say flip. Plenty of time to buy one for yourself when they are back in stock, and if you can make a bit extra now, I`d do it. 

Here in Germany I ordered 2 Sets of the 21104 and it arrived just on the 4th january. Today you could order the set up to 5 pieces with delivery date on the 3rd february.

I just don't understand why lego makes such differences for this set in America and europe. I mean you guys just get 1 set per person and we Europeans up to 3 till february? Does this make any sence?

They make different restrictions for different parts of the world. Most of the resellers that Lego is combating are from the US and that is one of the reasons why there is a strict limit of 1 here in the US.

This set is now sold out with a ship date of March 26th, and that date just keeps getting pushed back. I bought one for my own collection but wonder what's going to happen over the next couple months.

Mine said March something and then I got it last week. Put it up on Ebay and it immediately sold for double what I paid to it... internationally so free shipping doesn't apply. Worked out nicely.

I'm new and only have 13 reviews on ebay, I'm worried if I start the auction too low I could loose money, but I've noticed many starting this item at .01.  I would hate to have my item not be seen since my ebay account is so new and loose money on the deal.  Would you recommend I start at what I paid or .01 to get some bidding action in my position?

Do a BIN in the mid $50's. If it sells cool. If it doesn't you're not out anything.

I'm wondering why anyone would flip this set for double the money.  LEGO already stated this would be a "limited" set.  Why settle for making less than $30 on this set? This set will easily hit the $100 mark after EOL and that will be sooner than later.  This set is a keeper, not a flipper.

That is too low.

What Migration is saying is that I can flip what I have and use that capital to purchase more while there is still time.

Where did LEGO state that the Rover would be limited?

1) I do this for current income.

2) I don't have the space to store multiple sets.

3) it is very easy to pick up a box and ship it.

4) how limited can a mass produced toy actually be?

5) hayabusa and mine craft were both limited but LEGO released them multiple times anyway.
