That's interesting to hear, I presumed it had as a large number of sets have been in and out of stock.

uk had no production issues.

With Mexico plant shutdown stock from the European factories that would have normally been sold in Europe were diverted to the Americas.

Also, Lego ceased brick production and produced face masks for a while in at least one of their plants. Not sure if they are still doing this or not.

But technically your statement is true because the UK has no Lego production facilities, therefore they cannot have any issues. The combination of the above stuff has led to a shortage though during a time of increased demand.

In the meantime those savvy qfll’s are raking it in... on another note anyone managed to shift T1’s at a profit? Thinking of dumping mine ASAP

Yes, I’ve sold the 3 that I bought at retail 5+ years ago. Not a lot of profit but some. Glad to be rid of them. It’s a good feeling when you get bailed out on a dumb buying decision.

Same here. Sold my last two that have been sitting in storage for years. Made only a little profit but still felt good.

Thats what they say...Quarantine is draining out all the Resellers....

 

...T1 Is EOL 2020 btw....just joking?!

How much did you sell your T1s for?

Any buying frenzy on police sets?

 

Well, if this one is still planned for summer release, then I can’t imagine police sets are being pulled.

Although they might rename it to “Heartlake Target Store” or make it a Creator 3-in-1 that can be built as an Auto parts store, liquor store, or church.

Perfect response

21039 and 21047 rumoured to retire this year. Before New York and London.

They recently were for Sale in Lego Stores in Germany.

This is interesting for Shanghai because Lego is doing a 150+ store expansion in China, which was supposed to be done by the end of this year. That's a lot of Lego stores!

I think the set is unique, has lots of color. I think it'll do well after retirement. fingers crossed

Yes it sure will be a good one...but I counted on the other two 😉

Lot of discount on architecture sets during last months on amazon.de

BTW All of the Overwatch Sets are going to End. Even the new ones like Wrecking ball and the Roadhog-Trike.

What do you mean exactly by going to end? When?

It means that there will be no new Overwatch Sets. The whole Line is EOL by this half year.

What are your guys thoughts on the star wars Tantive IV and Imperial Star Destroyer being TOOS?  Do you think they will actually come back in stock or do you think due to the CoVid they will just retire the sets?  I was hoping the imperial star destroyer might have a sale due to its previous unpopularity now i'm just hoping it will just come back.

I can still find it in stock here and there, albeit at retail. I think it will stick around and we'll see a decent deal on it sometime. Talking about the SD. It hasn't been out as long as some others so it should have a year or two left.
