Hey, I only have one, and it's one I bought used (and incomplete) from Goodwill.

No excuses now! You offered the guarantee!!! ^.^

Last time I offered my GF a guarantee was HH. I told her that I want her to buy at least two of these. If they don't appreciate I'll buy them from her. If they do appreciate she can do with them whatever she wants. Guess who thanked me last month after selling one? That's a guarantee :-P

Okay, if you aren't living on Wall Street in a few years after it retires, I will buy one of your DSs at MSRP.

Just a guess but perhaps Walmart puts returns on the shelf marked down...

Don't try it with Walmart, they have a system in place that will offer you a very discounted price.
I went to a Local Walmart to return a SOH that was damaged. 
The register showed only $60 credit back to my CC.
Can not be override.

I don't do it. I read last year about some unsavory activity...

I never speculate, it's a shocking habit... destructive to the logical faculty.

Yeah, Your right, I just went to check on the ones that came in last week. 
October 2015.  Damn it.

All my 10188 from Target this week are hot off the printing presses. There is some noise starting to circulate that 10188 Mk II is being pushed back to 2nd half 2016 which opens the door to the old version hanging around for a while longer. I think 10188 will be a hot seller after the new movie release so it would not surprise me to see 10188 production to continue through 1Q 2016.

Hmmm. I think there is a chance 10188 stays around for a while as the large DS playset while Lego makes smaller versions (think The Throne Room set) that will include Rogue One characters.

Just my guess.

IIRC. "bigger & better" was the rumor description...

If It does stick around till 2016, then the chance of a remake are slim to none.

No way they are going to make another one after 8 years in production. 
 

[Miami Bomb Squad]

Just as I was going to order another one from Target, Bam....... Its gone.

The seal codes, man, the seal codes!

[Sozial]

I will go tomorrow to my Store and see if they got DS and check seal codes.

40R5 or 42R5

I think the latter but PS, PC, TB, SOH and DS were all in that range.

[Val-E]

So why the fizz are they not available from SAH if they are still being made???

IIRC, this was how they handled RI at the end...

[hockeyweasel]

Available Now on US SAH as of morning of 11/10.

Still has the "We are currently making more" message, when you click on it.

[legone3]

It's us that make them make more.

[thoroakenfelder]

Saw it in the store Sunday

[Val-E]

It seems they have coordinated it well as both EU and US shops got stock at the same time and have limited suppy to 2 and 1 units.

Who can spot new box and current seal codes the first?
