DarthDrake Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Hi all, Have several of these (20214) at my local TRU on clearance for $39.99. Just wondered if it was a buy or not. BP price guide has at $90+, but they don't look like they're moving that well on eBay. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I jumped all over a couple. I think they'll be fairly rare, but I went out on a limb buying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I like this, too. I bought one for myself, for my Halloween Town. I thought it would look good. (Need to remember to mention it in the Halloween thread). 50% off Lego is never a bad deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenchu2000 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 For investment, I think those MBA sets can be a gamble. Not only they don't move well on ebay, but there aren't too many reviewers on Lego.com and other online retailers, so doesn't appear to be very popular. But I did grab two of each 3 MBA sets at TRU. One set for myself and one set to hold. Shipping cost on those sets can also be challenging, they are pretty heavy. Oh well, at 50% off, I will take a chance.

DarthDrake Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 Thanks for the advice guys. I think they look pretty good and this is the only place I've ever seen them. I just didnt want to tie money up if the general consensus was that they were going to be duds. But I'm like you guys, it's hard to turn down 50% off. Will head back by there after work. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I think they are targeted to some sort of lego club, so demand is very specialized (Master Builder - http://mba.lego.com/en-us/parents/masterbuilder , http://mba.lego.com/en-us/guide/what-is-a-lego-master-builder I think there are 40 Master Builders in the world , but given their salary, I would rather stick with Computer Science...

Ed Mack Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I really like these sets. They have nice instruction booklets. For $40, I would buy what they had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I really like these sets. They have nice instruction booklets. For $40, I would buy what they had. They liked them at brickfan: http://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-master-builder-academy-invention-designer-20215-kit-10-time-machine-review/ But investing wise... at that price you probably will eventually double your money, but demand seems to be really low. Probably because B&****** have them, besides Lego SAH itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I would get them. It looks like a cool set, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand for the set, like No More Monkeys stated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
