10188 - UCS: Death Star

[exciter1]

Together with Palace Cinema, Pet Shop and Birds (Death Star and Kwik-E-Mart were mentioned already). So this can't be true. Numbers at Brickset say yesterday there were 4399 units of Kwik-E-Mart in storage, 237 units of DS, 314 units of Palace Cinema, 1734 units of Pet Shop, ...

So I guess none of these sets are really "sold out" in Europe.

That's the kind of buying power TabbyBoy has.

sounds about right

It´s a Danish ban hammer trick - we won´t sell ANYONE our most popular items for a few weeks then resellers will unload their stock and we´ll ban them all when they order 5 of each once they are back online. Brilliant.

It seems TLG has hired a psychological counselor to play mind-tricks with us.

The far more devastating Jedi-mind-tricks are coming when The Force Awakens. EV, Sandcrawler, R5, S1, and Tie all go Sold out for a couple days muhahaha.

Well, my serious prediction is that EV will go before R5.  Limit 1 vs. 2 being the main evidence.  The sets were released in close proximity to each other.  EV also comes in a big, bulky box of the sort that Lego appears to be phasing out, and undoubtedly involved many more unique pieces (certainly lots of unique minifigs).

I agree...

I'd be happy either way. I just wish I can get some more EV into my inventory

Death Star is alive again! though only lasts for 1 minute...

[labfreak7]

Where?

[Jeff Mack]

I don't think one was there, who knows if they were doing something on their system.  I just got a chance to check my tracker logs and it was only 13 seconds from the time it was last checked at OOS to In Stock and I clicked on the link immediately. Unless superman grabbed it, I don't think it was there. Damn you Target!!!

They must have been adding one piece at a time manually to troll us all

Hold your horses guys. So Shop has this on the DS page. "We are currently making more, so please check back soon for availability".

Q: Is this an appropriate place for Darth Vader's "Nooooooooo!!!" from Episode 3?

A: No. Never speak of it again.

Who can blame them. They are selling like hot cakes to resellers.
