Maybe not, but the title made you look didn't it?   But seriously, I've been doing some thinking... I have been noticing lately how so many things are selling out everywhere.  Out of the 57 Lego items in my cart on Amazon, over 40 of them are sold out right now, which is unheard of any other time of the year.

 

I am starting to think that this is the case with Wolvie 6866.  Chances seem good that it is just sold out for the season, and we will start to see them again in abundance around late January.  Plus you never know with the way Lego has been doing things lately.  I still haven't gotten over the fact that they actually un-retired the Catwoman Catcycle City Chase.

 

Other than being gone from apparently everywhere, there is no other solid indication that Wolvering is EOL.  To go back to my earlier point, a LOT of stuff is gone from everywhere because it is Christmas time and Legos are a hot gift item.

 

I could be completely wrong about all this, but I am curious to hear if anyone else shares my view on this.  Does anyone else think we will see Wolverine, Deadpool, and Magneto showing up again???

I believe it's extremely unlikely that they will un-retire this set now, i do believe it's gone forever (or at least in the UK). With the new wave of superheroes on the horizon I believe they will want the shelf space to sell the new stuff rather than mess about with a 2 year old set.

 

I think the Catwoman coming out of retirement is a one off and it only happened in the US (to my knowledge), in the Uk once it retired it has stayed retired.

Just saw some Wolverines at my lego store for $22. Had to take a pass...is that crazy?

Wolvie and Magneto will be $10 each after retirement. That's minimum, the rest of the junk and that other red minifigure can add up to another $15 easily. Better go back and grab them.

"..that other red minifigure" is probably one of the hottest Marvel characters out right now. Wolvie and Mags are awesome, but Deadpool is the minifig I bought this set for. Do like supraboy888 says and snag them up!!!

I sell Wolverine for $12 right now (I ran out). Deadpool I sell for $12 as well.

You're making me think about cleaning the shelves here in Canada at the TRU. $26.99 a set here. If that deadpool can net $12, it's a no brainer even at $30. Still, I'd have to say the hulk is the clear winner. If spiderman sets get discontinued, it makes me wonder who the hot figure will be, octopus or venom? Hmmmmm
