abri123 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Hi, In the UK Christmas Lego catalogue there are 6 sets with 'Limited Quantity' marked against them. Is there any link between this tag and EOL due, or is it also put on a few if they expect to sell out. My initial thoughts were it's an EOL sign as Tower Bridge, DeLorean, VW Camper, Pet Shop were marked like that and they've already been well discussed on the forums as EOL due. but, what threw me was Palace Cinema and Fairground Mixer marked Limited as well. As these are the only 6 lines in an 82 page mag it raised some thoughts. I would be very suprised if PC and Mixer went EOL - I'm assuming it's due to demand expectations, but there are loads of other hard to come by sets or high sellers not marked as such - what are other peoples thoughts?

10230 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 They maybe just reserved pre-Christmas production capability for other sets, so no new "runs" might be planned for those for the remainder of 2014, but not (necessarily) retirement. I imagine that most of TLGs business especially before Christmas does not come from the big exclusives, but tons of the smaller sets. Quote
fuzzy_bricks Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Could be a marketing thing to drive sales. Quote
skanks Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 It's really interesting to see the sets that are marked "Limited Quantity" in the new catalogue. Is it a rouse to get some of the slower selling sets moving? Some of the Ninjago sets haven't been out that long. Quote
Val-E Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Limited = we will limit production to the number of sets we can sell. 1 Quote
dcdfan Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 This is interesting because 1 year later & only the Delorean is gone... Quote
Val-E Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Milano Spacedhip was limited too and that ended well (30% off to clear stocks in summer). This is interesting because 1 year later & only the Delorean is gone... Quote
dcdfan Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Sorry, I meant from the mentioned titles above... Quote
Val-E Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Sorry, I meant from the mentioned titles above...And I meant to be ironic! Quote
