Our very good buddy Allen "Tormentalous" Tran has reported on his website that Eurobricks has leaked small bits of info on a restaraunt modular set for realease next year, on the surface it seems pretty lame but probably too early to tell.

I don't think this is anything more than double VIP decimating inventory.  About anything worth getting right now is OOS.

agree  - just taking note as it was pushed out quite a bit further than the other HTF OOS sets

eu restock today so don´t panic.

New box at the San Diego Lego Store tonight:

My goodness. She's a beauty. My favorite mod.

It's been my favorite too for quite some time now. Right now I can't decide between this design and the DO. Guess they both are beautiful in their own way.

So new box = not retiring soon and the only modular not to get a new box is PS. I wonder which one might retire first.....

Knowing Lego, it'll be the Brick Bank...

Such appreciation from everyone - i guess PR will get the most recognition among other currently easily available modulars (PC, PS).

P.S. First post on forum by the way

Sweetie you are TOOS in Europe and out to 30 days in the US. Please don´t tell me you are leaving us so soon....

Considering what the LEGO customer relations representative told me on the phone today, regarding Pet Shop stock been exhausted by big demand over the past 1.5 months, and Pet Shop absolutely coming back in stock again when production capacity is available to make additional Pet Shop sets, I am certain that Parisian Restaurant will be back in stock as well. Maybe only after the huge Christmas surge is over and sale is slowing down a bit again?

Perhaps the horde has had its fill of PC´s and is moving on to the next target. PR will be 2 years old soon so people who missed TH will be wanting to get their number. That TH retirement is looking more like a masterstroke every day.

Finally back at EU shop. Only SW is now backordered in terms of exclusives plus 10240 which is on the SW page.

I received a copy of PR with a sticker attached to the front. Has anyone seen something similar before?

from time to time, it appears lego adds a sticker to correct stuff.  i have a set that has a black sticker covering the set info below the set # on the box front

just picked up the PR tonight.  my first modular.   looking forward to the build.  i am afraid it will not be my last modular...

My first modular was the PR too. Have since built them all apart from CC and GG. I don't know if it was due to being the first one I built but it remains my favorite. I suggest building the others first and saving the best for last.

TOS again in LEGO Shop at Home EU, after it was only briefly available for ordering. PS and PC are still available but either LEGO has difficulties supplying the demand for PR, or they're cranking down production. It looks like it's doing the dance...

Wonder if next year they are bringing out a new restaurant or restaurant related set?  Sushi bar? Bakery?  There was a time during late fall/early winter where it was OOS for quite some time.

very interesting that it is unorderable.  just ordered my first 2 for investing - already have 21 PC and 21 PS so it was time to get going on PR.  PR is one of the best modulars if not the best one to date.

PC, PS, and PR are all limit 2.

DO and BB are limit 5 at usa LEGO Shop at Home.

I decided to jump on all 3 of those over the last few months because I didn't want to miss out and pay extra for them.  I never really bothered with this series, but once I built one, I became a little obsessive/compulsive with this line.  I don't know if you have built these yet, but man... they are perhaps the most fun things to build when it comes to lego sets. 

Although, I'm not investing in modulars and like to build and collect these for personal use.  The PR is great though. It's such a well done and very beautifully designed set.  Just all around greatness.

It's also out of stock on amazon in the US... and looks like only target and lego LEGO Shop at Home are the last survivors.

Maybe we're seeing a new 2-year cycle rule with this one? But, then again, there isn't any rule, is there?

Maybe people are getting a little ahead of themselves - or could Tumbler rules apply?

Unleash the horde! (BTW, I'm only looking for my personal "to build in a distant future when I finally have time" pile ).

I don't think there will.be much of a pop with any of these, the good old blue chip days may be done. See GE and fire brigade, very slow rise up
