R2 isn't in there

Well, the $*#% has officially hit the fan.  If this hasn't been discussed already,  lots of Big Sets Missing from the Late Holiday 2014 Catalog from TLG received in the mail today.  Not sure what to buy next.......

TB, AA, DS are in there

Maybe they ran out of pages?

Anyone has a link to 2013 holiday catalog?

Haven't you heard of the big global glossy paper shortage happening this year due to the increasing amount of new Lego products coming onto the market. 

Anyone has a link to 2013 holiday catalog?

 

I'd love to compare that as well.  Time to do some searching.

R2 isn't in there

Neither is ToO, correct?

 

Damn T1 is there...

Okay, I haven't looked through to compare yet, but here ya go:

 

2013 Lego Late Holiday Catalog

 

2014 Lego Late Holiday Catalog

 

edit to add:  The 2013 link might not be the whole catalog.  Google Image search it...

Well the MF is in it... but it'll probably go EOL soon. (don't you think?)

A month ago the store manager told me that the mf has to go

 

He told me that 10-12 sets and i mean big sets will go

 

5 are already sold out/eol HH, TH, SSD, GE, JK

One is on the way 

What's JK?

Joust Kingdom

Ahhhh got it. BT, EG, DSS

At least HH is the same

EEE and AA also.

Joust Kingdom

 

lyxdesic

lyxdesic

forward, reverse, word scrambles.  

 

SSD, DSS, or SDS

 

these single abbreviations were getting to easy anyways

All these abbreviations have my head spinning.  I am making up kits with them that don't exist.  ha ha!

Ahhhh got it. BT, EG, DSS

and don't forget "P in the V goes for EDBD" (for The League tv show fans).

-Kingdoms Just- OOS in Europe, changed the status yesterday to -call to check

-Coast Guard Plane- It's not so big news, but has done the same pattern like SSD, HH, TH, Rd-D2...

-Tower of Orthanc- My bet that is the next because has done the same pattern.

-Milleniun Falcon 7965- Has gone already in Europe, has done the same pattern, so i can bet that will be one of the next in USA and around the world.

 

 There is too much posts but there is too some relevant information between all of them.

 It's not so hard, if you read the forum and check the signals.

PS (I don't subscribe to these newfangled reversed abbreviations) is now OOS everywhere except LEGO Shop at Home.

Sounds like work. I'd rather just ask the same repetitive questions on here.

Very odd PS out everywhere but limit 5 at LEGO Shop at Home?

Not odd at all. It's the time of year. It has begun. These forums will be funny this time of year with a lot of new users. Omg omgggg every lego set and I mean every one is oos at Amazon.

Sigh.... Yupp. None are retiring. Its Christmas. Noobs.
