zskid00 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Poof again. I don't have the option to add it to my cart here. Quote
ISO8T0 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 There is room for both, but it will stunt the growth of the 10240 at some point in my opinion because at some point you know there will be a UCS version. And at some point we will buy it!! (...the young padawan patiently sits and waits) Quote
mscheaf Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Guess I missed out since tru can't get a refund to me in under two months with their hassle free returns Quote

trekgate502 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Poof again. I don't have the option to add it to my cart here. It came and went extremely fast. I tried to order 2 not sure if they had more but they did not have 4 when i tried and I took too long. They probably were flushing out remaining inventory that they know about from the other orders clearing and adjusting it to accurate. Quote
trekgate502 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 LOL! What's his name? Well you started the Tribble topic so I'll respond just with a tease to let you know that this will be one of the things to be discussed in my new (hope to have time tonight) thread to discuss Retail Stock Tracking, Trivia & Occasional Contests thread... It will be like a pot luck thread of fun. So if everyone can hold any more tribble posts until I start the thread up tonight and then post them there! Quote
vmnlogan Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 ... Perhaps Disney will finish the rumor of buying Hasbro. Then they can quadruple it in size and move all toy production to Hasbro plus keep Transformers and own it. Then they can discontinue Kre-O and move the Star Trek License to Lego because they bought them too. Then focus all production of Hasbro and Lego around their movie schedules. Now that would be absolutely terrible, Disney is big enough as it is and I hope it does not happen as I like Hasbro owning Transformers and Lego's Independence but it is one way to get a UCS Enterprise. The big globe at EPCOT does kinda look like the Death Star... I guess the race for transcendence is on! Which will happen first: Google becomes SkyNet and sends terminators after us or Disney becomes the foundation of the Galactic Empire? In any case, I think this may be the last OT X-Wing for a while - they will be cranking out new sets for the movies (one a year for the next five years? Seriously?) as well as Star Wars:Rebels for a while. Where will that leave the OT fans? Begging for Red Five... Quote
Xarathion Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 There were three at the Potomac Mills VA LEGO store. I picked up two...one for a buddy and one for me to compliment my original UCS X-Wing. It's possible they had more in the back...I noticed that store had a lot of interview on various hard to find and discontinued items, probably because they don't get as much traffic. Quote

trekgate502 Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 newbiecollect you are the confirmed winner! please PM me your t shirt size you would like and your address to send the micro fighter and T Shirt! Thanks again everyone! 3 Quote
Xarathion Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Items such as??? Just a lot of stuff that was either hard to find or EOL. Can't remember many specifics off the top of my head, but there were still quite a few 2013 Star Wars sets, a Death Star, Orthanc, Tumbler, VW Bus, Modular Cafe. I'm probably not the best resource for what's valuable, but I did get the impression that they had a lot more than my local LEGO store. Probably not worth the trip if you aren't driving past on I95 already or live in the area. Quote
thehornedrat Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Isn't there anything else to discuss about this set? How about more threads about the set itself intend of predicted retail inventory levels, etc... How many people have built this set? How did you link the b? Why not post a pic of your finished product? Do you have it on display with other models? Has your perception of this set changed since it's release? Have any comparison pics? Well, for the extreme SW nerd, and probably why the 10240 got sold out pretty quickly over Christmas: 10240 Red Five + Microfighters Xwing pilot with the R2 dome + the green R2 body from the 2014 Advent calendar = 10240 Red Ten, but yeah, sounds ho-hum to me, but I got caught up in that rush. Oh, and my hunch is a System Ep 7 X-wing will come out first. Quote
freakchem Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Didn't realize 10240 has oos everywhere except LEGO Shop at Home? Is there a chance they will pop up at Target or TRU again? Quote
trekgate502 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Didn't realize 10240 has oos everywhere except LEGO Shop at Home? Is there a chance they will pop up at Target or TRU again? Possible it will restock everywhere Possible it will bounce in and out Possible it is done except LEGO Shop at Home and will retire soon No one here knows for sure 1 Quote

I would say it's possible but I'm almost certain that you ll have to enter the notorious f5 race if and when it does pop up Edited February 1, 2015 by California92563 Quote
