Alpinemaps Posted July 10, 2015 Author Posted July 10, 2015 Been watching how this set has been doing today.Before Noon, when the first few hit eBay, this commanded up to $250 a piece. By Noon, though, the market started failing off, and it went from $250 to $215, within less than 10 minutes. It's definitely at or below $200 now.Today was the only day it was out there. It will be interesting to see if it drops further. I suspect it might, but don't really know. Quote
Grolim Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 The more I see this set the more I want it! Can you pick me up a couple Alpinemaps? 1 Quote
waddamon Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 So under 200 shipped. I am wondering what these will be in 5 years. I am considering buying as many as I can under 200.00. This is pure collectible though, so box condition is paramount. Looks like tons of folks decided to sell. Quote
Ed Mack Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) I just bought one at $200 with free shipping. I don't see it falling much lower than that. I waited on Batman from last year and it cost me. These little box sets are wonderful collectibles. I have them all, so now I am forced to buy them. For people like myself who buy them second hand, they are LONG TERM investments. I am hoping that one day they will become truly valuable, but we are talking years here...as in more than five IMO. Edited July 10, 2015 by Ed Mack 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted July 13, 2015 Author Posted July 13, 2015 For anyone looking for instructions and inventory, The Brick Fan has posted it. He has noted the rare parts,I will try to work up an LDD and Bricklink inventory and/or want list, but it may take a few days. Quote
boliramirez Posted July 13, 2015 Posted July 13, 2015 I bough two, one at 210 and another at 190 shipped both early on Thursday. I might get another 3, I have a feeling that this will become one of the most valuable Comic Con Exclusives.... Quote

BrickPick3r Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 so this set won't be able to duplicate because of the green thing? I guess mine has to be a yellow roof then LOL Quote
dcdfan Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 so this set won't be able to duplicate because of the green thing? I guess mine has to be a yellow roof then LOL my OCD doesn't allow me to substitute... 1 Quote
Alpinemaps Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 my OCD doesn't allow me to substitute... I hear ya. I'm having the same problem with the Ultron set figures as well (there's a piece that's only available in one set and i need three and there is only one per set) I'm convinced that some of these rare pieces are poised to show up elsewhere in these colors soon. Others may disagree but I don't see Lego doing that roof piece in green for only 1500 pieces. It may not be for anything this year, but I think that roof piece is coming soon. 1 Quote

Just copy and past the items in the list into BL's 'upload' section? Quote
DadsAFOL Posted August 26, 2015 Posted August 26, 2015 Can anyone tell me how to upload to BL wanted list? Just copy and past the items in the list into BL's 'upload' section?In Brickstock, you should see a down arrow next to the right of the two disk icons in the toolbar. One of the options will be "upload to wanted list". Make sure you have selected all rows, then click that option. It will open a Bricklink window with a blank text box. Right click and paste there. Then click the upload button. If you are using multiple wanted lists you will need to enter the list number in the message box when prompted. Otherwise you can leave that message box blank. Quote

Copterman Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 So I just tried to buy the individual pieces at a Bricklink store. No one store had everything I needed. The total for the pieces was $55, yet there is a guy selling replicas on Ebay for the same price. What am I missing? How is that guy making money? How can I get the pieces I need for cheaper? Quote

I'm not sure how they are making anything, unless they had easy access to lots of the parts. Thanks for the tip though, I might buy one off this guy. I haven't thought about looking for several months. Too many other projects going on. Quote

Be aware, most likely, "the guy" is selling an altered version. The green car roof (Green Wedge 6 x 4 x 2/3 Quad Curved) has never been made available in another set. I'm "the guy" that sells exact replicas, but I only do that if I can get the parts. And since that piece isn't available, we haven't produced any of these. 1 Quote

I'd love to be "the guy" too, but Dads is right about that roof. I'm BL'ing it right now but going with a place roof instead of yellow. 1 Quote

Copterman Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 (edited) Yeah I knew about the roof. I can also live with the yellow roof for now. Is there a way to approximate the roof using several smaller pieces rather than the one big one and maintain the car's green color? Hoping you guys might could think of a workaround to avoid the yellow roof. Edited December 9, 2015 by Copterman 1 Quote
