10226 - Sopwith Camel

ATTENTION COLLECTORS AND INVESTORS:

On June 1, 2012, LEGO will be releasing a new version of the SOPWITH CAMEL. The older version, set 3451, did extremely well in the secondary market, increasing almost 200% from MSRP. This set looks much more complicated and accurate. Watch the LEGO 'DESIGN' video. Nice detail. A must have for any investor or collector, so save your pennies for June 1st!

Here is the LEGO Press Release:

  • A mon calamari can go really wild if he feels trapped.

  •     Oh it's American. No other country would call that piss colored rice water beer.     Blue moon is about as Belgian as Taco Bell is mexican.

  • Sopwith is doing ok in the states. I wish I had been buying them instead of the VW Campers I have...

Thanks for the heads up Sandwraithx157, would love to get 2...at the moment just trying to lower my inventory a bit more before investing in other sets.  But definitely a smart purchase at this point I think, secondary prices are relatively high already.   

In 1999, the Confederation des Brasseries de Belgique (The Confederation of Belgian Breweries) sued the then-named Coors Brewing Company over its use of the term "Belgian White." The CBB alleged Coors' advertising was misleading, and could confuse American consumers into believing Blue Moon was made in Belgium.

 

Budweiser is even more Belgian then that Moon thing :)

 

Now that Budweiser is actually Chech. Stolen by an american company and used to confuse american consumer into believing its american

Thanks for the heads up - my walmart.ca order from the weekend doesn't look like it is going to ship (already got the dreaded no stock email) so I am in for two. We'll see if these actually ship!

I don't even like lagers. Too plain. Give me a dry hopped IPA or a stout any day.

there is a beer for every occasion. i wanna see you drop a 6-pack of Imperial at the pool in the summer heat.

The human body is an efficient machine for converting real ale into Budweiser. If someone is seriously ill, the result is Fosters!

Anyhow, isn't a Blue Moon what you see when a Smurf bends over?

As for the SC, I have 13 and ain't stopping there. One of the most iconic British fighter planes of all time.

If you ever can get your hands on it, try Gouden Carolus, cuv

Let's try to stay on topic.  I like beer as much as anybody else here, but there's a time and a place.  I thought a beer thread would be cool, but I don't see it going anywhere productive and it blurs the line of what is acceptable, especially on a Lego board. 

 

As for SC, wish I had more, bought a few over the last couple years but never really hoarded them, now it appears to be long gone. 

Anyone else have 36R4 SCs? Me and someone else in the Order Status thread had SCs arrive from amazon with clearly cut seals and new 36R4 seals placed over them. Mine actually is triple sealed. Just wondering how common this might be, sort of like the Vamp Castle situation perhaps

I had a Sopwith Camel that was double sealed that I ordered direct from LEGO. The weight was the exact same as my others, so I decided to keep it.

Target is OOS of the 179.99 SC.

Let's hope it stays that way :)

The temporary $ ceiling is removed at least for now,

179.99? OMG, is that the price in $? If so, don't buy from those cowboys.

That's how much target.com was selling them for after raising the price from $99.99. The price moved back and forth between $164.99 to $179.99 during the last month,

Making yet another MSRP showing at LL's and Discovery Centers. Love, love, love this set: a classic, timeless plane and not overly hoarded.

Yeah, certainly not the buzz of other sets. With Target out of the way, there aren't many places to get this at MSRP. I can't find any in Canada anymore...

Nice, only have 4 myself. After playing musical boxes with about 20 TBs the last few days trying to make room, something to be said for the easy storage size of 10226 too!

Couldn't agree more. Compact, instant massive increase in value, and based on the classic nature of the piece one that will not require clever market "timing" to maximize profits. I am in for a few more too.

TRU.ca has some back in stock...I got my limit (2). We'll see if they actually ship...and if they do if they are in decent shape. Worth a shot, Canucks.

Amazing! I have access to a heap of these for 85-89 euros and they just aren
