Yellowtot Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The fact that Smyths toys has had random amounts of stock come in and out over the last week or so, does suggest that there are batches of Tumblers out there so who knows.

wobbl87 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 strange. I couldn't buy it through googling the site but seems the order has gone through this way. Lets see if i get an apology or a tumbler in the next few weeks. Think youre right though about the smyths having some though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthBall Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I order one. Expected shipping date is February 9. It still has the retiring soon tag ... or again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas007 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 It must be a mistake - search SAH with word "retiring" and you will see many "retiring soon" sets with "Out of stock, expected ship date 9 Feb 2016". All have same date. Even if they produce new wave for tumbler, why would they bring back also pirates sets, etc? Anyway, what was the last status of Tumbler - sold out or retired?

I'm nearly positive it showed Retired Product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtot Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 It's possible it's a returned order from a retailer for one of several reasons including bankruptcy etc, but again who knows, may just be a glitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think that one ever actually came back - as it only showed as being able to order on the search results, but had no order button on the product page itself.

Yellowtot Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The fact it went from back order to sold out is a good sign, if they just wiped it off the site with no 'sold out' text then it would of most likely been a glitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 A good sign will be a shipping number! Let´s see how this pans out - a full 30 minutes of availability was a lot for a few returns and unless they were forecast returns they should have been available now.

Cheese Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Got a confirmation email from Lego that order confirmed but they won't debit my card until nearer shipping date, so looks legitimate. Confirmed for both tumbler and red 5! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackanape Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Forgot to change the shipping address to my work (as it means I don't have to go and collect the huge boxes when I'm inevitably not home). So I called them to change it, very helpful gent said the item was on backorder and should ship out before the 9th but their factories were at capacity and the Tumbler had been very popular recently. Confirmed my order was valid, would be processed and changed my address. So take that for what it's worth, and fingers crossed everyone gets what they ordered.
