Utility Shuttle is missing from the list

There are definitely some sets that are missing from the list that i anticipate retiring. Maybe this is the list of sets to avoid list :|

60078? It´s already retired here.

To summarise, CITY space, demolition and deep sea sub themes are done.

It is, all of the ones in retiring soon are slow sellers i.e. Poe Dameron/ rey buildable figures

Darth vader, stormtrooper don't need the tags as sell well

142 sets now tagged in the UK. I noticed that some of the CITY vehicles didn't last long.

The elephant in the room is Poe´s X wing. I see all the TFA Sept 15 sets going except MF 75105 and maybe this one.

I don't think this list is done yet. Theres some very obvious omissions in the SW theme that aren't tagged. 

Very surprised by Tie v A-Wing but i worry it's had such a short life because there is a new set containing one of those ships in the pipeline.

It seems like one year lifespan is the norm for city, star wars etc going forward as lego increases their ever expanding themes.

I would say that poe xwing is going but resistance x wing stays

I´d say nothing has changed. They kill off the poor sellers and keep the good ones going. A wing v Tie is overpriced for what it is so no surprise there.

I would be surprised if Poe xwing is a slow seller.

10254 and 10245 also marked retiring soon. It´s a trap.

That´s why I am on the fence. Amazon UK had it discounted for so long it´s hard too say. It has pretty much dried up here but the blue one is everywhere.

No, they are trying to make life interesting for resellers.

Yeah, not bad that Winter Train 10254 is retiring seeing as it only just came out. Can´t quite beat the Ultra Agents boat that retired before it was released, though.

This has got to be a new strategy for them - maybe they were sick of people complaining how they missed out.  Have to say a few sets I'm surprised at on there but generally seems to be as expected.

What ever the number of snow globes they produced they should probably think about doubling it right now.

"Sir, sales for sets with a retiring soon tag have increased by 100%! I know, let's put a retiring soon tag on every set!"

Here's the Star Wars list in no particular order (doesn't include buildable figures):

• Imperial Assault Carrier
• Vader’s TIE Advanced vs. A-Wing Starfighter
• Resistance Troop Transporter
• Rebel Alliance Battle Pack
• Galactic Empire Battle Pack
• Obi-Wan's Jedi Interceptor
• Droid Escape Pod
• Hoth Attack
• The Ghost (micro)
• AT-DP (micro)
• Sith Infiltrator
• Imperial Shuttle Tydirium
• First Order Transporter
• Death Star Final Duel
• Naboo Starfighter
• Battle Droid Troop Carrier
• TIE Advanced Prototype
• First Order Snowspeeder
• Flash Speeder
• Hailfire Droid
• Imperial Troop Transport
• Shadow Troopers
• Senate Commando Troopers
• Geonesis Troopers
• Snowspeeder (micro)
• AT-AT (micro)
• Anakin’s Custom Jedi Starfighter

Notable absentees:

• Rey's Speeder
• Resistance X-Wing Fighter
• Poe's X-Wing Fighter
• First Order Special Forces TIE fighter
• Millennium Falcon
• Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle
• Carbon-Freezing Chamber
• Kanan's Speeder Bike
• Resistance X-Wing Fighter (micro)
• First Order Snowspeeder (micro)
• TIE Advanced Prototype (micro)
• Wookiee Gunship (micro)

What can I say?

I didn't think those Elves sets released in June would retire already. It looks like I have to make sure to get them soon.
