So do we think this set is EOL? Lego.com lists it to temporarily out of stock and my local Targets are all out as well. Is this the end of this set? What do you think?

Where would you order them from? I don't see anywhere online currently selling them.

I've been hunting for some at $49 and haven't come across them at all. And I have hit the retail stores hard all through the summer and fall in my area as well as other areas I've visited. My Targets sold out and never restocked and most of them just have a empty space where this was. 

 

There a bunch around in my walmarts - but all at retail. Its probably still a winner at retail, but I haven't jumped yet.

Amazon.com has 50 or so left. Max 2 per order.

How can you tell how many they have? Mine just says in stock, and it doesn't say anything about a maximum amount.

This already was the 2nd Batman wave. And the 2nd Batcave. First one was 7783.

 

Not to hijack the thread, but I just got my hands on a used 7783 in great shape, and I'm thinking about keeping it until after 6860 retires to ride the rebound from the 6860 retirement.  Am I overthinking this?  My other option is to list it in the next 1-2 weeks.

Quacs, I don't know for sure, but for me I'd list it at a higher-than-average used price on fixed price for the next month -- you'll either get it sold as a Christmas gift or you'll be able to hang on to it like you're thinking, win-win. :-)

Try to add a ton in the window for checkout. It will adjust your total and usually says how many are left.

About the same here. Best I found was one time at Target for maybe $5 or so off. There was one time a couple of months ago where Target had matched Amazon's price but apparently they did not last long it seems. Ah well, I ended up getting Battle at The Black Gate for $47 as a substitute.

Looks like even TRU is sold out now! Wow, this might be a golden winner once LEGO Shop at Home is OOS??

It was a great day to pick them up with the BOGO 1/2 on TRU.com

On the 6860 Batcave I would hold on to them, I just got 8 more today for $50 Each, these will be $200 a year after retired, and don't forget the Funhouse Toys R Us had them today for $30 Each with the buy one get one 50% off, used that $10 gift card 's from black friday, like i said before once batcave is retired people will have 2 choices the 6860 set for about $200 or so or the Older 2006 set for $400 or more, Most average Lego buyers will go with the 6860 set, and the Funhouse should be a steady $100 or more set, and last don't forget the Batman Alysum for $160, should be around to the end of 2015, but it would not hurt to pick one up from time to time, this will be a steady $350 or more set. I swore i wanted get anymore Funhouses but for $30 each, well it takes me up to 62 of them.  Ed

I wished I live in the US. So many great deals.

Sorry to hear that, are you having therapy? ;-)

Looks like Toys R Us and LEGO Shop at Home are the only places left with limited quantities...

Amazon just had these in stock a few hours ago. I was going through my inventory checking prices to see if the current price was approaching my listed price and the item would sell soon, when I saw Amazon had them back in at 69.99. I was pissed. Now I'm quite pleased.

This set is a money maker for them. It's a great set. I want one for my batman collection as well

Great set. If youre lucky you can get it BOGO 50% off at your local TRU if they have it now. I kinda regret buying more than 1 at retail price now lol

Just saw this older post.

I had 2 used 7783s and sold both 3months ago. I waited too long . despite being superior in just about every way to 6860, it is killing this once mighty investment. If I sold my sets in 2012, I would have received at least $75-$100 more per set.

At some point, sealed 6860s will be worth more than open 7783s. Until then, people will flock to 6860s due to the cheaper price tag.

An update - I listed the used 7783 for $350 and it sold within a few days. I was sad to see that awesome set go, but I learned it was going to make a child's Christmas so Santa Quacs feels a little better!

So I've been watching this one, my son would really like one and I would too if I'm being honest, but they're kind of hard to find.  I found a cached Google page of the Target product page and found the product number to use on an inventory checker.  My MIL was in the Target today that I had located a 6860 at, but couldn't find them on the shelf.  After asking for some help they looked around in the back and found five.  They were retail priced, but the guy said they were discontinued, I assume that meant Target wasn't carrying them anymore.  Ended up getting two of them. 

 

I also noticed that LEGO Shop at Home went out of stock today, but said they would deliver within 30 days.  I realize that the status probably doesn't indicate anything, but if they're planning on getting more, I assume they are still producing them?  If that is the case I may just hold the two I got from Target until a better deal comes along or I can get VIP points.

I was really hoping when it went out, it was gone. It is gone from every retailer and already above $80 on ebay.

Batcave back in stock directly from Amazon but at $78.94 instead of the $69.99 MSRP

Looks like they have 29 in stock at the time of writing this.

I think the 6860 is gone, because there is a local store near me, who normaly never have big discounts. Now there are a lot of Batcaves for only 40sFr ~ 48$ instead of 90sFr. There is also a big discounts for the 6863 6862 6864 6869

Oddly enough, one of my TRU had three in-stock without any price markers. I scanned them and they rang up $89.99!

They might be really scarce, so this is a good sign?
