John82 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) You didn't honestly think Lego would be retiring this after one xmas did you? It will be here next xmas, and the xmas after that.

Holiday Train is now limit 5 and popping up at retailers too so looks like they are pushing these out in large quantities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if it was a 1 year release, would be absolute gold if it were. I wish they would start doing limited editions, the winter village theme would be perfect for short runs. Out of interest does anyone know how many of these are in a carton? No doubt this will be at John Lewis soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t_mafia Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I've been hoping to find this set at a discount but haven't seen it on sale at all yet. Has anybody else? I'm not sure if I should wait for a good xmas promo or if it may be gone by that time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickSamurai Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Even without a discount promo - this set should do well after it retires as there's no telling how long it'll take TLG to release another set like it. I think it'll do well, maybe not as well as the original one, which is still highly sought after but it should do well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRIX23 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Want to add power to this set. Is the IR receiver(8884)/remote(8879) required or can I get it running with only the motor(88002) and battery pack(88000)? Asking because all parts are available except the IR receiver until after Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migration Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 You will need the ir receiver and remote to control the speed. It will run wide open with just the motor and battery box and you will spend much time putting it back together from crashes (the rechargeable pack may have a speed control on it) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or so I've heard. From a friend. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcandre Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I wonder if this will stay a third year to accompany the station. I think this set is a winner, been holding out for some discounts tho. Double vip and the bus may have to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
