71010 - Minifigures - Series 14 Monsters

[justapilgrim]

Called several targets, a few agreed to sell me some series 14, they all have massive signs on them that have a Sept 1st sign on them. Some didn't care, and tried anyways, but the system has them locked out, they can't sell if they wanted to. This is at multiple targets, however YMMV. I'd raise prices if I had sone, supply will not keep pace with demand between now and Sept 1st

I am going Hunting for more later

missing a few for 3rd and 4th set

i shared at my local store with a mom that was a collector I guess

you guys really feel like 234.49 is a price worth purchasing?  Seems kinda high to me

[dcdfan]

I'm used to paying $240

Cheaper than MSRP

[agp548]

Cheapest you are gonna find a case anywhere and it's free shipping. And I won't be surprised if he raises the price in the next few days. 

[zobel0022]

Yea, below msrp at $4 a piece.  They had Simpsons series 2 for 239.99 and you could buy all you wanted on Amazon.fr for $180 with free shipping.  I wouldn't be surprised to see that again.  I just don't see much profit to be made off of it at this price...at least not of a long while

I noticed that the shipping date wasn't until the end of Sept though.  Seems like a long wait when they will be in stores Sept 1.

Simpsons were garbage in my opinion.  These are straight winners no matter what you do with them. Re sell. Keep for personal use. Or part out. Winners all around. These will not be found for below retail. Well I highly doubt it. Once again only my opinion. 

[biking_tiger]

I don't buy CMFs for investment, but...

I love monsters. 

I love Lego. 

I'm a happy clam. Whatever that means.

Haha, I have no idea, got some for my kids....really neat minifigs. 

[zskid00]

With triple eBay bucks and discounted gift cards from Target this makes a great deal for the case.

Hi

I consider this the price to play. And I get to feel out the elements and perfect my technique in the comfort of my home rather standing around store full of distractions hoping little Timmy doesn't kneecap me when he realized i have the last zombie cheerleader in my hand.

If I can't figure out what's inside within 20 seconds, I rub them on my genitals to secure extra time.

The point is, you have to plan ahead

I laughed out loud and i think my wife now thinks I'm crazy bc she just doesn't understand.  I am in full support of this reasoning.

These are no Simpsons series 2.  A box of those is about as cool as a crate of tiny Exo-Suits. 

My humble opinion is that $235 is a very good deal on a sealed case of these.  You can't buy a sealed case from TRU (no TRUTH discounts) or from Lego or from any other big discounter (at least not that I'm aware of).  

If you got the Target/Ebay gift card deal in the last 48 hours, this comes to $211 shipped for a *sealed* case.  I guarantee a case of these will sell for $400 by the end of 2016.

Every series is different.  You can still get series 6 sealed boxes on the cheap ($270ish) because they weren't that popular.  Series 12 kind of sucks, too.

This series = slam dunk winner.  

It's a no brainer.

I ended up getting 2 cases for under $200 (gift card deals). I'm happy... Everything else is just gravy.
