The main happy surprise for me is that the Sandcrawler did in fact retire along with the Ewok Village. That means it had a 6 month shorter lifespan than the EV and hopefully was too big and too expensive to be uber-hoarded.

That being said, it's available for less than retail on Amazon right now:

Link because we love the Mack's

https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Star-Wars-75059-Sandcrawler/dp/B00JZMYOOC/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1484067787&sr=1-1&keywords=lego+sandcrawler

Now the real question. Will these sets be actually unavailable at retail or "Birds Retired" and available at some random US retailer for 30% off months after retirement? 

Here's raising a glass to all you chaps for true retirement on all these. Happy New Year!

Finally some of the big sets retiring.

A few I'm surprised at are 75136 Droid Escape Pod (I'd been recently stocking up) and 75140 Resistance Troop Transporter (Leia / Carrie Fisher minifig).

Somewhat surprised at 21305 Maze and 76035 Jokerland.

75136, 75140, and 21305 all released in 2016 and retired less than a year later.

Happy about Scooby Doo, I just recently hit my inventory goals on those.

Why surprised about these retirements? The Lego group have showed you exactly what was retiring over the last couple of months by doing it first in Europe. What would be interesting and surprising would be if any decent sets that weren't already marked as retiring already in Europe had been retired in the US. We don't have the luxury of that in Europe though unfortunately.

The whole first wave did.  That fact makes 75140 really surprising to me.

Except 75100 (FO Snowspeeder) and 75103 (FO Transporter).  They don't have the tag yet, but they are still OOS and show no signs of life/restock.

Yeah, I've got them added.  Those two weren't listed earlier this morning.  I'm getting ready to post what I have now.  Added a dozen or so sets that weren't listed this morning

I think they're all done with the possible exception of 75105 MF.  I'm pretty sure (haven't verified with a manager) that this has a spot in the new mod coming soon at WM.  They normally don't have a spot in a new mod if they're getting ready to retire.

There has been some great discussion this morning, but please try to take it to the individual threads.  Like the sticky on top of the thread says, let's leave this thread to the announcements.  Thank you!
