10188 - UCS: Death Star

[GhostDad]

All the EOL signs are there.  The problem is, they were there last year too.  DS, TB, and perhaps T1 are clearly 'different' in the minds of Lego planners.

[GhostDad]

Buy it and built it. Epic lego set and i am afraid you cant get it cheaper

Bought mine for 316 and 298 so it can get cheaper. But the chances are slimming so probably best to buy 1 if one has none. I say this assuming DS is on its final trip. If it would be around for another year, I'm sure it can be found cheaper again.

It will def be very interesting to see what happens with 10188 when it finally goes "poof" for good.

I think we'll see some sort of "POP" initially by many resellers buying them on eBay who missed the boat. Throw in some Star Wars / Lego fans who missed the boat and want one.

Then it will get very, very interesting starting 9-10 months after officially being sold-out everywhere. There will still be some normal AFOL demand to keep it going but for how long? E.g. The Zombies's awesome growth lasted 25 months after being sold-out everywhere until it peaked and now growth has been flat.

I am sure steady growth it will be longer because it's Star Wars. "Star Wars is forever".

ToysR'us is not known for their best shipping I am not going to buy there anymore

Buying via TRU is a gamble. Sometimes the items arrive well packed, with lots of filling material in their shipping boxes and the Lego boxes are in fine condition, sometimes there is lots of space in it and the Lego boxes look pretty beaten up.

Yes I have seen. Bought 2 exact the same things. One was packed good, the other not.

DS takes up a full lego box so if they didn

[jaisonline]

true. 

 

of all the 10188s i ordered (amazon and target) since 2013, only 1 arrived w/o the normal lego shipping case box.  in some instances, amazon even included the sealed case inside a slightly larger shipping box.]

Hmmm ok just ordered one, because I think it will be a fun build :)

To go off topic there are some other interesting offers in that promo too - MK2 Crane, for under 140 euros, for instance. Hope Amazon.de does a Price match!

Being my first exclusive build it was pretty fun and I was pretty impressed with it. 5 movies and 4 episodes of "Gotham" later she was done. Had friends over 2days after completion and they were taking pictures of it. B)
