10225 - UCS: R2-D2

[Crustybeaver]

Where's Emazers? I feel we need one of his reality check posts to crush the very souls of those unfortunate enough to have accumulated their quota on these.

Seems to be hard for some to keep rare things in good shape...

Is there a chance that 10240 also goes away? Or can i focus on 10225?

Status of R2D2 has changed from "sold out" to "Out of stock, expected ship date 26 Nov 2014". The question is: Is it retiering or not?

Think SSD, HH and TH. This set will go in and out of stock multiple times on most of the major retailers. If you want one, you have to keep checking.

[bluebeatz]

Ok now its sold out again. Didn't last longe.

Focus 10225 or also buy 10240 ?

[Ed Mack]

10225 at the moment.

Well, at least the guy did not throw it away... Maybe I should laminate it or something.. At least plastic pouch perhaps?

Thank you for using your brain before commenting.

 

A rare occurrence on the internet these days.

They won't. Not with the horde out in force.

Customer Care Lego confirmed me that 10225 is EOL (by mail and by phone)

 

The email:

 

"Unfortunately , the set 10225 is sold out and will no longer be put into production. We are very sorry ... it was a product in great demand."

Finished my quota on him 2 weeks ago, now on to HE and R5

It is a beautiful dance....

Seems a bit early for Red 5, but retirement of HE this year would be consistent with the lifespan of EN and MT.

HE? EN? MT what are these abbreviations??

Horizon Express, Emerald Night, Maersk Train.

I know, but I have a feeling about this one. It sat and sat and sat some more at same quantities at collishop and now it is gone from their site. It doesn't mean anything ofcourse, but rather pick some up at a "decent" price then to be caught without any of them.

I don't believe for a minute this was a poor seller.

[stephen_rockefeller]

A few think this for some odd reason.

I feel we don't need that at all.

[trekgate502]

It is Amazing

 

The thing is still #5 Sales Rank on Amazon even though it mainly went out of stock shipped & sold by Amazon Monday at 9-10pm set.

I feel we need a picture of his stock of these. Already boxed and labelled and ready to ship.
