exciter1 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 I still could not bring myself to buy 1 even with the discount and the promo It's a neat little set and should be a painless double once the Pirate theme disappears. 1 Quote
lobo1969 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 I'm just glad they made it to the tractor promo. Yeah.... that was a very small incentive for me as well. Quote
jbacunn Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Kingdom's Chess is doing pretty well, but I'm not sure about Pirates.The Kingdom chess set is WAY cooler than this one and more appropriate for a chess set IMO. I'm sitting this one out. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 (edited) I'm just glad they made it to the tractor promo. It was just $.21 under $50 so I needed to add a keychain to get the tracktor poly.. GENIUS Edited September 2, 2015 by Darth_Raichu fixed math Quote

exciter1 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 You beat me again.All those guys kept buying keychains last year to get those free Jor-El polys and I just kept buying Wonder Woman's hair. 3 Quote
brickolodon Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Pretty strong performer due to shortage last couple months...future of this set? Not sure... Quote

Veegs Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Pretty strong performer due to shortage last couple months...future of this set? Not sure...If it sells out (which it likely will do on sale) and status stays at sold out, it would be a relatively short run with shortages during said run. It sounds like a pretty easy double to me. I'm talking myself into getting the limit (5) but not talking myself into having others also get five on my behalf. Quote
MarleyMoose Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 I'd buy 5 if Shop would let me log in... 1 Quote
lobo1969 Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Spotted today at lego b&m: boxes from 51O4 taped over with new seals with 18O5. So obviously there was no error on the boxes but only an issue inside.I've seen 2 today with the 18O5 new seals over the older seals. However there were also newer sealed boxes with the box art corrected to reflect the corrected (true) chess board. Exact same image but the black and white squares are in the correct sequence now. I suspect LEGO simply did a photoshop fix for the new boxes. Quote
GiliusThunderhead Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Does anyone know if this was readily available in the UK? Or if it even is? Would love to get my hands on one. ...ok I actually can not use google. Definitely going (and staying ) in exile this time round! Edited September 7, 2015 by Lego_Yoda Found the answer myself Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted September 8, 2015 Posted September 8, 2015 looking forward to my 2 sets arriving this week. now do I keep it whole or part it? Quote

Darth_Raichu Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 That went away with United Nations...When was UN HQ discounted at S@H ? (not saying you were wrong, I honestly could not remember) Quote
dcdfan Posted September 12, 2015 Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) When was UN HQ discounted at LEGO Shop at Home ? (not saying you were wrong, I honestly could not remember)I'm sorry, I'm mistaken. You are correct. UN was at B&M. Lincoln Memorial was @ LEGO Shop at Home... Edited September 12, 2015 by dcdfan Quote
Pseudoty Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 Trying to figure out production runs on the chess set. Original run was 05O5 I have one of those from the lego store. Then it was pulled and fixed and one side of the box has two sets of seals 29O5 over 05O5, all 6 of the ones I picked up last Saturday at VIP event are like that. Today I got LEGO Shop at Home orders and all are 29O5. So possibly looking at only 2 runs of X number of sets. Anyone have anything else? Quote
Migration Posted November 27, 2015 Posted November 27, 2015 I'm out of town but I'll check Sunday when I get home Quote
