Legojona Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I just bought one at TRU for 207. I had the -20% target in my head to have at least one, so pretty happy with it. If it fails in five years time to deliver any profit, I guess I will be pretty happy with having some Hoth lego to build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_rpg Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I'm going to wait and see what EV does before I even consider this set. imo EV >>>>>>> AOH, so if even EV doesn't do well, why buy AOH? Sure it could be less hoarded, but I think that will be compensated by a lower demand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legojona Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) My heart goes out to you guys down under. The scarcity of Lego is too damn high. We should organize a global effort to load up a container ship with Lego, so your government can give everybody a decent amount.

LegoBro Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Anyone want to sell and send one to Oz? Our collection lacks this and it's killing me. I'd do it. I'm in Cali. What's the shipping cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickLegacy Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 My son has more or less written off Star Wars and only likes it about "10%" (he measures everything in iPad battery life). There is a new hope, though. He circled this in the holiday catalog we received today. Say what you want about this set for AFOLs, but it appeals to kids. Might have to sell my soul to keep the force alive in this one. It could be worse, I suppose. At least he didn't ask for a prequels set. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put this stuff on some base plates, buy a used AT-AT and they can play for hours (at least I will would ) ! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NZ-EUG Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I think this sets price point gains the online hate and the UCS stamp is the final slap in the face to the fans. I poached all the exclusive minifigs online on the secondary market. I couldn't justify no matter how hard I tried to part with $499.99 NZD for this playset. Even some retailers are having 20% sales on it, in an atempt to move stock. Its seems no one is buying this set in New Zealand. Roll on 2017 for the much awaited re release UCS Snow Speeder - Shut up and take my money already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_rpg Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 It's currently at 180€ on toysrus.de for anyone that wants to pick this up. Best deal I've seen so far, but keep in mind it's TRU so you will probably end up with a pancake. Personally, I'm avoiding this one. Can't flip it for very much at that price and I don't see a lot of future potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I'm interested, but it is a steep discount, especially compared to the price of the same set at TRU_NL (@ €269,99) which will be shipped from the exact same German warehouse where it will be shipped from if bought at TRU_DE ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantomas007 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 It looks seductively (28%) discount, but still its too expensive for megapack of several standard sets, which are notoriously produced every year. Still 0,8 eur/ piece, which is not bad for licenced SW set, but not for such extremly non-attractive set with standard figs. I think this set will have record discounts in UCS world - already 28 % is non-standard discount in Europe for UCS set, but if they want to sell this shelf-warmer, they must think about 50 % discount, then is possible to think about buying it. But as an investment it has zero value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that really is criminal. TRU.nl is basically just a copy of TRU.de, except everything is a bit more expensive. And like you said, they ship it from the same warehouse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
