When I read this post I wonder what sets from the current S.W. Line-up have that sort of potential?  

Tydirium Shuttle?

 Recent retirees ISD and AT-AT seem to be moving out the gate early nicely, but with Rogue one sets coming out who knows if that growth slows down (assuming remakes)

During the holidays they were selling $240-$260.  They might hit that again this year.

For those who don't have every # memorized, 75021 is a Republic Gunship.  75038 is the Jedi Interceptor.

Yeah it was a cracking deal off gumtree, got a Queen Ann, black pearl and hogwarts for £80ea, all boxed complete. I've decided to keep the ships after building them, excellent sets.

ha. i'll consider it a "power move" when they are all gone from my collection except 1 used copy that my son and i built.

just wish lego didn't refresh the superhero minifigs so often... AA's design is awesome.

Probably false optimism, but I hope suicide squad might help that set

eBay or Amazon?  Not bad for a "stalled" set.  I wonder if this will begin to creep up...

In Europe, sales have picked up a little (from 0) so there maybe there is a new hope. Doing well to reach 250 euros, though.

Nicely done!! Had the seller never heard of eBay!?! Lol

EBay - beat-up Unimog - $290 - shipping to my neighbors in PA.

FBA -

Raptor Escapes - $98
Family House - $109
Unexpected Gatherings - $125
Golden Dragons - $75
Daily Bugle Showdowns - $64

 

US market seems to be buoyant if peeps are able to sell Unimogs, Bugles and AA´s for well above RRP. Congratulations.

The Tydirium for sure. I think I have 15 or so and may go 25 deep. I'll store it next to my 10212's that are almost 'ripe'

You do need a Unimog to haul all that dough.

I was thinking about that the other day, too. Last year, the only thing that saved the Xmas flipping was TFA and the fact that AT AT and ISD retired somewhat early (and easy supply dried up before Xmas) and that 75105 also ran out. Even so, some flippers still couldn´t unload all their AT AT´s or Mos Eisleys and are still at it now. 2 years ago, we got retirement of 7965 and 9493 and my feeling is there were less fippers. This year, the only 2 iconic OT playsets are 75105 (unlikely to retire but may go OOS) and Tydirium, which could well retire and will be the other main focus of the horde. A lot of people got poor results from Kylo Ren´s ship, even at 50% or more off RRP so I fear that the market will be saturated with Tydiriums this year. If some other large playsets are released, the horde will divide its purchasing but, if not, I see this one taking a similar path to Santa´s Workshop as it is isn´t anything like as popular as the Falcon or X Wing.

If the flippers can´t move their stock, the knock-on effect is for longer term investors as appreciation is slow and the next remake approaches.
