Whether this news clears out the remaining sets at Tesco and instore at John Lewis (seal code 51S6) remains to be seen. I still have a lot of faith in this set.Oy, spoilers sweetie. Luckily I had read the news already. 1 Quote

Guest TabbyBoy Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Sorry for the bump. but 21304 has just broken RRP on Amazon UK. Still not officially retired on LEGO UK so could be outstanding backorders? BTW... The one with the recent tag I saw had 32O6 at the other end... phew! Quote
wotguvnotmeguv Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 It would be weird for this to retire before the next series - the last with Capaldi - starts airing on 15 April. Is it cynical to expect it to come back in stock at UK SAH to coincide with the show airing? Is there any precedent for this? Quote

Expand Since it's not tagged as Retired Product, there's no reason why it can't be restocked for the next series. The Entertainer still has it available and John Lewis (Reading) had a couple on the shelf last week. A little more patience is required with this set. Quote

TLG only do that if they want rid of a set, they are not a charity. That a remade version could see the light of day sometime is possible, but this one is done. Quote

feed Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 In the UK the Entertainer have it at retail. Based on past entertainer EOL stock, it’ll be a while before it goes, so effectively capping price to RRP for while. Quote
Val-E Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 Yeah and Amazon may restock periodically too. I think we´ll get a clearer picture in the summer. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 The last seal code I saw was 42S6, any advances on that? Seriously, I still think that this set will do very well. Val-E is probably right, we'll know more by Summer and will hopefully see the "tag" towards Xmas. Quote
Val-E Posted March 2, 2017 Posted March 2, 2017 Until the 3 month returns window has closed from when it was still at less than 50% off, there is still a good chance it will come back to SAH. Same for Ecto 1. By now, retailer returns should have been received and dealt with but you never know so keep F5ing! Quote

wotguvnotmeguv Posted May 11, 2017 Posted May 11, 2017 Now, finally, officially retired in the UK. Quote
wotguvnotmeguv Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 The last sub-£50 sets on Amazon UK seem to have gone. Now listed at £5-£10 over RRP. Quote
