which ever target or walmart has exo-suit; its a return from one of the target/walmart guests. { most likely one of the BP'er who ordered a lot more than they can digest/hold and returned }.

good $cost

No way. I've seen he Exo Suit at literature ten differnt targets. And Walmart I've seen it at have tons like close to 20. Shelf tag and all.

yes just because they have a shelf tag doesn't mean that its not a return.

 

i have not seen exo-suit in lot of target and walmart.

 

where ever i have seen them i.e. about 7 targets in west-coast and 2 walmarts; when i asked about them to the manager themselves they have mentioned that they were returns.

 

unless people confirm that exo-suit is in each and every targets and/or walmart its mostly likely that those are returns rather than sell it in all stores like how the layout of most of these BB retailers are.

Hello fellow investing members. Today I managed to get 2 exo suits at my local LEGO store and ordered one online. I am keeping one for me but I am planning to sell my other 2. I am slightly concerned of a second run making the set slightly less sought after set. Therefor sell now or wait? should I resell this one like I did when times were desperate to get hands on the minecraft set?

Exo has flooded the market, you won't get more than retail right now. At least here in the States, not sure about ID. I guess it could dry up closer to xmas but I'm not expecting a huge spike. 

 

Mod maybe combine with exo thread, thx.  

There's a seller on ebay now advertising "Rare Hard to Find Exo-Suit..." for $38 free shipping.  I'd buy one, and then open a SNAD case against them if I didn't have too many already.

Sarcasm? If not you would lose (according to eBay customer service).

So is this set officially dead like the Ghost Buster's set for investment purposes? I'm considering off-loading my extras and picking up the new birds ideas set or minecraft if this one is going to be a shelf-warmer not worth the investment anymore. Thoughts?

Maybe for QFLL purposes, but this set isn't dead. The Ecto-1 is definitely not dead. That one will be a post EOL winner big time. Just because a set cannot be flipped for profit while still in production and widely available at retail cost doesn't make it "dead... for investment purposes." It's just not a good flip.

Neither set is dead.

Nobody outside of Lego knows. Anywhere from 5 months to 18 would be my guess for Ideals / CUUSOO sets based on past ones,

I got the new catalogue from Lego Germany yesterday. Ecto-1 and Birds were in it. Exo-suit was not. Could be a sign.

I love it, think it's going to be the best sleeper set of the year, and won't be surprised to see a better appreciation than 21108.

I bought 6 of these right away (limit of 2, 3 times) glad I sold them though. Was able to clear all of them out last year for about $5 over retail each. I`m so happy I did. Will look to acquire more perhaps near the end of this year or into next if it`s still around, which I`d guess it will be at least that long.

Yeah, the window was open for a bit, then closed rapidly. I have a few kicking around the stockroom that I didn't move fast enough. Now they are 'long term holds'. I wish I had moved them at the peak of the frenzy.

In Germany the Exo Suit gets the mark "Auslaufmodell" which means Retiring Soon.

Showing as retiring soon in UK store now too

Note that (in my country for the least) it's the only set which has this tag.

 

It's been a while (months) since I didn't saw this tag ! I even thought it didn't exist anymore in europe.

In Australia LEGO Shop at Home it is also labelled as Retiring Soon. I also hardly see that tag at all. Wonder could these be something that would become the norm?

US still has limit "1" on LEGO Shop at Home.....

hopefully this is not like 6860 ... (which retired the whole wide world) and stayed in US for extra year....

I can't see these appreciating much if at all.  Every shop in the UK appears to have full shelves of these and they are just not moving, even when The Entertainer in Reading had them at half price!  So glad that I returned these turkeys on the 88th day and will not buy any more even with a massive discount.  I've grown to hate the thing immensely.  More for you lot then innit? ;-)

Keep telling yourself this and you might believe it. ROVERS AND RIs FOR EVERYONE!!!!

i don't think this set will be another 6860. i'm not alone with this opinion.  grab them while you can and save one for building as it's a fun set little set.

p.s., this set already has a space cult following in a good way.

Exo-Suit's biggest challenge is that it wasn't the RI upon release. A lot of people, not just BPers, thought it would be. This thing will be fine long term.
