biking_tiger Posted November 28, 2016 Posted November 28, 2016 For me, Mr. Banderas will never lose that luster. 9

Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 The cull in the UK has started with 10234 SOH continuing the trend. The number of retirees on the UK site has now jumped to 710 even though it includes past as well as present. Let's hope the 20% off sets join the party soon.

HandyHand Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 (edited) This set was recently reduced from €14,99 to €10,49 at LEGO Shop at Home. Friends Butterfly Organizer, set 40156. Small exclusive LEGO Shop at Home set. Managed to get 2 of them but ordered 3, so I called customer service about the one missing item in the shipment. The friendly lady explained it's sold out and retired. In the US this set is still available, and now also at a reduced price: from $16.99 for $13.59. Retirement in US/Canada is imminent. https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Butterfly-Organizer-40156 Edited November 30, 2016 by Haay

I've got a fair few of those as they had good bricks.

Yep. Even at my LEGO store you had to ask for this set, as they held it in the back room, not on the shelf at all.

Typical under the radar sets that people here don't talk about until they've gone EOL. A bit like the post-promotion sets that John Lewis sell off for pennies if there's any left over. I remember the Duplo Giraffe for 3p so I emptied the 2 baskets near the check-outs! I had some funny looks but, didn't care. £3 ain't bad for 100 polybags and I just give them away as sweetners and 20 went on Hallow'en night to polite trick or treaters. Does "under the radar" mean that NEXO will skyrocket?

Lego Templar Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 76031 hulk buster smash, let's see how this one turns out Only have like 6 of these. I need more. I think it's a great 30 dollar set. If hulkbuster isn't in the new movies it will be a winner. IMO of course.
Hoops03 Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 these were kinda mass produced to the point that theyre still in pretty much every retail store you go to....
biking_tiger Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 Yes, but sales volume matters. Plenty of Ultra Agents sets were "hard to find" but still collect dust well after retirement. I don't think Hulkbuster's returns will be meteoric, but sales volume does matter when it comes to the liquidity of Lego sets.
