Anyone have a good weight on one of these? I have one from TRU that is 8 lb 7.1oz. That's a few tenths of an ounce off my others but very close. Should I be concerned?

Talked Lego Store Employee and she said that shipments aren't scheduled to come in of Town Hall. She said they haven't been for a little but LEGO with send then a case out of random. She said to her knowledge she didn't think it would be available online. Take it for what it's worth.

West Coast Lego stores are still receiving these, though typically in quantities of no more than two.

Bottom line: it's over. Get what you can, however you can, if this set matters to you.

Did you really just ask that?

 

 

 

Just pulling your chain.... hehe

I don't know what is "few tenth of an ounce".

But if it's more than 30 grams, I would say it depends of the seals. If seals are the same and the weight is different, I would check the lighter set.

If the seals are different, it means nothing because maybe you just have a cardboard to stiffen the instructions.

It's about a small bite from a Royale with cheese.

 

So I guess it will be 10 grams or something

1 ounce =

Glups ! availibilty on November 18th for european LEGO Shop at Home...

I wonder if this is the kiss cool brickpicker effect.

Back to 5th Nov now. Every day it changes, though I haven't seen the date come forward before. Maybe they found a few out the back.

So did the SSD a few weeks before it went 'Sold Out'.

Well.. I have waited long enough now. This thing is almost gone everywhere, I'm going to order 5 pieces today, each of course separately. I don't care when they ship, as long as they do ship.

Just ordered one off LEGO EU (AUS) and went and checked the order status and it comes up as "Customer Service", does anyone know what this means or is a prelude to? I ordered a Tumbler earlier this evening in a different transaction.

Click on the order and you see that the TH is backordered, but the promo is 'customer service'. I had the same, but just got confirmation, so no big deal. It was worse if it was the other way around ;-)

Thanks for that. I've order a couple of other sets that have been back ordered and this is the first one saying Customer Service.

If you had 1 order that day, I guess it will be ok. But I already had, with multiple orders of different sets, the polybag promo was cancelled on the second 1.

Maybe something like "ok, now we know how many we will be able to get ! We can be more accurate with the availability !"

I only had one placed yesterday. Holding until shipping confirmation to place another one today.

Correct, dancing to the tune of Silent But Almost Obvious Retirement by TLG.

Plenty on the shelves in the UK still.  The Reading branch of John Lewis still has my sneaky stickers on the 3 boxes on the shelf.  If the seal codes coincide with early November, we know there's been another big run.  I'm not convinced that this is going yet.

Got mine the other day from my order placed on 10/7. The seal was is 38r4 and it was crushed like a little kid sat on it.

Mine arrived looking like Adele had sat on it so it went straight back.  No fuss at all returning to John Lewis.

Why are you sending them back aren't they still going to go up in value.

 

Considering you can't get replacements that is

nice to see the folks who think 10224 will retire this year finally crossed the 30% mark. 

 

 

it really depends on what you mean by retire - like RETIRED on shop at home vs unavailable for purchase.

 

I think it won't be listed as RETIRED at shop at home until next year.

 

I do not think it will be available for purchase again this year (except for fleeting stock gobbled by bp'ers).

 

Everyone pretty much agrees that the SC is retired.

That set probably won't get slapped with a retired tag until next year.

 

Even Jabba's palace is still listed as SOLD OUT on the shop at home page and everyone can agree this isn't coming back, but still its not RETIRED.

 

I think the TH has shot at some spectacular returns given its unexpected departure.
