August 9, 201411 yr i already have 1 i wont be buying anymore i just thought would mention it on here
August 20, 201411 yr Anybody else notice that the RRP in the UK of tower bridge has been reduced to GBP 189.99. Both John Lewis and Toys R Us show this reduced price. Lego Shop @ home still selling it for GBP 209.99. Find it odd, as I thought most exclusives can't be discounted.... Thanks
August 20, 201411 yr I know JL price matches - but even in TRU, they don't show its discounted at all.
August 20, 201411 yr I gave up buying more of these. I have 5 now and the last addition to this number was a year ago. This set is waaaayyyy overdue for EOL and although the Sydney Opera has been out for so long, the TB is still alive and kicking. So I diverted the cache flow to sets like the SSD, R2D2 & the modulars etc...

August 21, 201411 yr I have 3 of these now but will not hesitate to buy more. They are on sale now at amazon.it for 184.99 Euro. But unfortunately I have a lego acquisition stop till after our move to the new house. Hope to be allowed to make an exception for the 10221 SSD.
August 21, 201411 yr I am tempted to add a few more to the 5 I already have, especially if the price is tempting...BUT I might as well spend it on other sets. If this set is going to sit around for another year and stare at me I'll get annoyed! I bought the first TB back in 2012 when it's time was already up...2 years down the line its still everywhere! Damn!
August 24, 201411 yr Hey all, I am slowly working up the courage to put together a recently purchased tower bridge (mostly the logistics!). The bags are current unopened, but I cannot resist giving this set a go. Where do you figure this set will end up in value in a few years both new and used? Hard to discount the amazing detail and number of pieces in the evaluation . Seems like a slam dunk either new or used. Thoughts?
August 26, 201411 yr I have 11 and thought that the Opera house would clear out the Tower Bridges, but.. no. I don't know how many get sold though, my store doesn't seem to get a lot sold and I've never seen someone buy one when I've been in there.

September 22, 201411 yr TB still going strong despite many big sets vanishing the last few months. I'm going to throw all my sets off the real tower bridge if thing lasts another year.

September 23, 201411 yr I believe, for the long-term investor, this set has the most ROI potential of anything that will EOL within the foreseeable future. It is in a quality class with Taj, Eiffel Tower, etc.- and the Opera House has a lot of time left. It looks nicer than the accurate- though somewhat monotone and perhaps dull- Opera House, has playability with the functioning bridge, and is a ten out of ten on display. As a long-term investment, this is my top play. I have a hunch it will be evaporating soon... Southern California B&M stocks on this set are dwindling, in spite of an order limit of five on LEGO Shop at Home.
October 3, 201411 yr So I got 70.00 worth of VIP points and thinking of buying a tower bridge. What's the thought on this set? Is it ever going to retire and any guess to what it's value might be after retirement?
October 3, 201411 yr I actually want to buy a tower bridge with all my double vip points i get this month.
