TheOrcKing Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Finally to round up this first wave of sets, here at the price of $89.99 includes 860 pieces and a whopping seven minifigures between exclusive Velma followed by Daphne, Shaggy, Scooby, and three crooked criminals to catch with the Black Knight aka Mr. Wickles from the very first memorable episode that started it all "What a Night for a Knight", the Ghost aka Bluestone the Great from the first season's third episode "Hassle in the Castle", and then the Vampire aka "Big Bob" Oakley from season one's eleventh episode "A Gaggle of Galloping Ghosts". The mansion itself is a mix of different locales one of which could be the haunted mansion in the opening credits for the original show and a greenhouse section I can recall from an episode yet cannot remember the title of it for the life of me (and so far Google isn't helping any). Anyway although the manor is not specific to any one case from the series, the overall appearance and inclusion of so many main characters plus classic crooks all from the original first season make this the other 'must buy' along with The Mystery Machine I think. 2 Quote
bricketycricket Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Remember when some people thought this set would somehow devalue the Haunted House? Granted I think that was before it was revealed, but still... 2 Quote
cladner Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) Remember when some people thought this set would somehow devalue the Haunted House? Granted I think that was before it was revealed, but still... Haunted House is safe and maybe even goes up in value faster due to demand from the few AFOL who get pulled back in by scooby. Not so rosy for the Vampyre Castle though IMO - short term , long term any term ... I wouldn't have bought so many goshdarn VC. have a nice day. Edited July 30, 2015 by cladner Quote
Neosphinx Posted August 18, 2015 Posted August 18, 2015 Great set. Enjoyed building it but Minifigs are OK Stickers are PITA. Asked replacement sheet @ LEGO. Did notice a color difference in the larger brown pieces. Is it me or is this known? 2 Quote
gregpj Posted August 19, 2015 Posted August 19, 2015 Out of curiosity, why did you ask for a replacement sheet of stickers? Quote

trenty1990 Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Do you think this set will do better than vampyre castle ? Quote
jaylay Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Do you think this set will do better than vampyre castle ? Mystery mansion will probably double in value once EOL but won't surpass vampire castle. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 That's awesome. Now, I want to see that person take it a step further....put all 5 Scooby sets into a single layout/theme. Quote
Trains 'n boats Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 Anyone know bag count and weight on this? I got one delivered with seals on one side popped. D Quote
feed Posted December 22, 2015 Posted December 22, 2015 Can't tell you the bag count, but just weight one at 1577 Quote
Mijnlamp0310 Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 Hello guys, I agree this is a really nice set, but sales are not up to par for the whole Scooby Doo line I believe... Any chance they would retire this line still this year you believe? Quote

Some folks here guess this theme was originally a 1 yr and done license. Judging my the sets some of us see consistently available, we can assume it's no longer in demand as before. However, the supply could still be smaller than other themes and perform well after retirement. i would this set is def #2 in popularity due to Velma and the monsters. Quote

Any chance they would retire this line still this year you believe? I have this on my radar for sure. Ceiling is probably as high as Vampyre Castle. I'd say there is a pretty decent chance this theme is like Castle and Pirates. Shops have a lot of them around me - if it moves to clearance in the spring I won't hesitate to go big - have it as #4 on my target list... Quote

xeeeej Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Has anybody seen a good MOC of this with 2+ sets made into a Modular-type building? I'd love to pick a few up on clearance and build a super-mansion. Quote

Chillreign Posted May 2, 2016 Posted May 2, 2016 this is just great! Maybe I need another Mystery Mansion... Quote
Popular Post xeeeej Posted June 3, 2016 Popular Post Posted June 3, 2016 Mine didn't turn out quite that well, but I needed a place to park the Mystery Machine. I still need to add some tiles to the street in front, but it is a good addition to the scary section of my town. (Used 2 75904 sets) 19 Quote
exciter1 Posted July 17, 2016 Posted July 17, 2016 $75.99 at Toys R Us this week, just throwing that out there. 1 Quote
Beef Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 At my local Walmart they had it on clearance, marked down to $64. But, alas, none left on the shelves... Quote
