Nothing earth-shattering.  Orc Forge surprises me the most.

Now it's back at 72... weird.

6862

It says they only have 4 left?

No, the max # of 6862s allowed in one order. I did order 2 earlier today so maybe the # is actually 5... Not sure.

Hmmm I.ordered 5 when they first dropped to part out. I think I may keep them in tact

Amazon oos of 6862, cheapest one $22 fba

Towards the end, it did say they'd get more on the 29th.

Walmart still has them for $15 and you can PM them at Target for $14.25 with Red Card

I missed the message that they are getting more. I'm slipping.

really getting more?  ugh.  i'm done with this set.  what a let down despite it actually being a cool smaller set.

Why do you think it is a let down?

Why do you think it is a let down?

 

It's only a let down to me as an investor.  The set itself is awesome.  ...and I was very high on this set for the secondary market.   The retail life has been way too long.  It's also at a cheap retail price point that everyone has one or two.  Heck, Amazon sold over 950 units in just 4 days.  6862 is not like a $100+ priced set where people may think twice before buying one due to the high cost.

 

Basically it comes down to supply vs.demand.  At least the Fire Brigade has the demand to meet the VAST supply plus it doesn't have a "sorta" refresh already (Superman despite a diff costume is available in 3 other sets). 

 

We gotta hope Lex and WW are not refreshed before another set arrives with Supes in his classic attire.

Per Brickshow FH is now labeled as "Retired" at LEGO Shop at Home website. They also have a blurb in there about what a great investment this set is. Maybe now they will start to dry up at TRU

FH? Set #? Fire house?

Funhouse

Funhouse has been retired for months. This is old news.

this is the lego.com search to use.  the key is to search "retired product"

i check this link about twice per week for updates.

I don't remember Winter Village Market being on that list or Two Face Chase. Bout time.

Ugh. My browser defaulted the LEGO Shop at Home UK again. Never mind.

I think the point was that the Fun House set # 6857 is now labeled as such "retired" not retiring soon or sold out like it was previously.  But I may be wrong.  I posted a link to the article last night but it got deleted. 

getting closer....

 

"LEGO Super Heroes Superman Vs Power Armor Lex 6862" is back in-stock on amazon.com but this time... ready for it?.... a max of 1 per order.

Does anyone know how many 10220s come in a LEGO box?  Thanks

I believe this has been answered as 5 before, but I didn't order that many at once to check.

I just saw it on amazon for $17+ but limit was 1. It's gone again and hopefully, it doesn't come back 

I still wonder why 10235 WV doesn't get any attention while being retired in Europe. WV sets are that bad?

I know that 10235 shows as retired on LEGO Shop at Home, but I really doubt that it had a 1 year run and off it goes. WV sets in the past have gone off site after holiday season and then made a return a-la Michael Jordan in mid-November. What I don't know is if they've been marked as 'retired' during their hiatus.

And WV sets are not that bad, look how 10229 is performing. That one has served it's 2 year cycle and was marked as sold out in mid december IIRC, so it shouldn't come back this november. It's just that in the EU this theme is not as popular as it is in the US, not even close.
