Ed Mack Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 And now we wait for rockefeller make a joke out of your silly beliefs in silly codes... The codes won't tell us if LEGO decides to re-up and restart production, but if it is the European code, then I would feel confident that the set is retiring before the end of the year. The quick "sell out" also indicates this. Quote
No More Monkeys Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 So, you're telling us the codes only tell us who believes in silly codes? Of course! 1 Quote
Ed Mack Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 The codes can never definitively show EOL, but in this particular case, it could help make sense of a complicated situation and help members figure out a gameplan for the Holiday shopping and selling season. 1 Quote

Do you really think LEGO would re-box the sets for Europe to USA moving? I find that hard to believe honestly 1 Quote

Product image here: http://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Super-Star-Destroyer-10221 shows number of pieces... While this listing: http://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Millennium-Falcon-7965 shows no piece count But something tells me that they are reusing the images across regions. Quote

Ok, here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/lego-Star-Wars-10221-super-star-destroyer-/251600768196 That gotta be local purchase. Does have piece count Quote

Do you really think LEGO would re-box the sets for Europe to USA moving? I find that hard to believe honestly At the end of last year I received plenty of FBs that were from Europe all with US packaging. Quote
beartrapper Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I'm very curious about what other sets you believe might be on the chopping block.. If it is the Europe stock, then the SSD is probably done, along with a large amount of other exclusive sets. Quote
Alcarin Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I've seen SSD box but must say I did not check with that personally I just thought all Europe sets have no piece count on them.... My bad then Quote
No More Monkeys Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 I've seen SSD box but must say I did not check with that personally I just thought all Europe sets have no piece count on them.... My bad then It might be that exclusives have counts in all regions. There was similar question about GE, and European GEs we confirmed to have counts on the box Quote
No More Monkeys Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_transport#Typical_in-transit_times Makes Sep 15 date still a bit weird. Perhaps there is a scheduled run... Quote
No More Monkeys Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Backordered...will i get it? Get one two from Walmart... We all know what they do if you order just one... Quote
toycrazedchris Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Get one two from Walmart... We all know what they do if you order just one... Only a handful available so I am guessing it might be returns - just happens to be same day as LEGO Shop at Home opening up orders. I sent 5 back to WM that could have been resold. Quote
imirish11 Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Oh Snap! In for 5 more from WM. Exciting Monday it is. Quote

BrickSapper Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Picked up 4 so that means at least 11 in the past couple of comments are accounted for at Walmart. Quote

metsrock507 Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 i got one from walmart! i would like to make an observation about walmart shipping: everyone seems to be complaining about walmart slapping labels directly onto the lego box. has anyone ever tried the more expensive shipping options from walmart? maybe if you cough up the extra 10$ they will put it in a box with some packing tape for you.
