waddamon Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 I just.checked ******** and every target in my area is showing this in stock. Based on ebay i think i will just leave them there. Not sure why sellers are selling so low. Quote
asharerin Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Every target in our area has these sitting on shelves as well. But it is not just Princess that is not moving, all the lego aisles are full of merchandise whereas last year the shelves were cleared. I believe both the Frozen hype and lego brand in general has peaked for now. The continued double VIP promotions and desperate email blasts from lego as of late do not inspire alot of confidence. We should get some mammoth clearance sales this time around on lego merchandise. I will pass on the ice castle and stick with the exclusives that look to be retiring early next year. Quote
nolanfan34 Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 In Lacey for business, I'll post here if I find anything, the two FM I went to had nothing, do you know where is series 13 minifigs were spotted in WA? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Brickpicker mobile app I ended up finding Elsa's castle at Target in Southcenter yesterday. They had all of the new Disney and Friends sets on the shelves. I picked up one for Santa, and one for a friend. There were probably a dozen on the shelf. My wife and I were back in that Target a number of hours later and they were all gone. The CMF 13 I saw at Fred Meyer in downtown Renton. Not sure if they are still there. Quote
randrace Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 I'm not getting any bites on EBay or Craigslist. Got one offer for $10 shipped for Olaf minifig on blanket. Sent from my XT1028 using Brickpicker mobile app Quote
tmock12 Posted December 20, 2014 Posted December 20, 2014 Picked up 3 ice castles last night from Target (saw 8 there) and decided I'd try to flip them and if not just return them. Sold all 3 to one person off craigslist for 65 each. Not bad for a 16 hour hold considering no fees. Target's less than a mile from my house so I may stop by and see if there are any left. 1 Quote
NWL14 Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 These are actually a decent QFLL right now. But the window of opportunity is closing. Come Jan 1st when they'll officially be stocked everywhere. Quote
labfreak7 Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Got one today at Target for my neice. Don't even know if she wants it but she likes lego and Frozen. Just showed up by me at the 11th hour Quote
TheOrcKing Posted December 24, 2014 Posted December 24, 2014 My Target wasn't 'one of the lucky ones' to carry this for the holidays already; not even a shelf spot. However they did have Aurora's Bedroom and Jasmine's Exotic Palace. The Jasmine set is quite nice for the price and Aurora's fits in with all the other Friends bedroom builds. Quote
JoshTX Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 I was able to snag two of these a couple days before Christmas, at Target. Gave my daughter one from Santa and I don't have the time to quick-flip the second one so I'll probably just hold for the long run. Gonna wait to see how it does after official release before buying many more. 1 Quote

JoshTX Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Whoa! Haven`t seen a post from you in quite a while. Glad you`re alive, welcome back! Ha ha, thanks. I was just telling nolanryanfan in another thread that I had to step away because of college getting really intense and way too demanding of my time. I'm supposed to graduate in April, though. 1 Quote
fredrick_louis Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 I just flipped my last elsa castle set for $85 on amazon. Prices have risen since Christmas sales. Might make sense to try sell them at that price given you probably will be able to get them 10%-20% less sometime this year. Quote

Might make sense to try sell them at that price given you probably will be able to get them 10%-20% less sometime this year. This set could be OOS quite often. I hit 8 targets today and there wasn't a single one on the shelves even though they have the 2015 sets out. Quote
wceagles Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 set has been available for pre-order (shipping out Jan 2nd ) on Europe & Aussie Lego LEGO Shop at Home for past few days..just noticed today that elsa's palace is currently listed as "Out of stock, expected ship date 27 Jan 2015" so either lego again didnt produce enough or resellers have been buying a ton of them over the past few days.

Alucard1982 Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Damn, I was waiting for the 05 Jan as I have a double VIP point day. I knew I shouldn't have waited :/ Quote
Alpinemaps Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 My daughter built this yesterday. It's a fun build, and I think it's well done. It would be pretty cool to MOC the heck out of it though. I think the minifigs and the unique colors will do good. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 I wonder how well the 'glitter' parts will do for parting out. I can't quite see LEGO doing those often nor outside the Disney Princess line honestly except for possibly a couple of odd Friends sets therefore keeping these piece types rather rare at any time even ten years from now if one were to speculate. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted December 28, 2014 Posted December 28, 2014 Right now, the Glitter Trans Blue is unique to this set. I wonder if they will show up anywhere else? Elves line? Quote

Forge99 Posted January 9, 2015 Posted January 9, 2015 Have opportunity to purchase 10 of these sets at retail price in UK. Worth buying to make nice profit or are stocks starting to become easily available? Im in the UK and stores other than Lego are starting to have access to them is it going to be worth my while? Quote

You can order 30 right now from Amazon UK. Quote
randrace Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 From a playability standpoint, this set is a bummer. Pieces fly off it if you so much as look at the thing. Planning on buying a second set to make a sturdier version for my 4 year old niece. If and when anyone hears of these going for less than RRP, please post it here.

mykingdomforabrick Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 This set perplexes me a bit. I assumed by now we'd see every shelf lined with these at retail stores. Amazon still sold out. I saw my first ones in store today since December. Even considered buying them. Yet the amazon price hasn't moved in weeks. Right at $60. Quote

mykingdomforabrick Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 Not at Target? Holcomb Bridge Walmart. Had 2 on shelf. I've yet to see it at any target since pre-xmas. Quote
