Dr. Brick Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 This whole friends line has officially become the Lego's new City line for young girls based on how many sets are coming out. Maybe over time they will keep it to around 20 sets that they keep redoing over and over again, just like their City sets. Some will be winners but it has become all too easy to get too involved in these sets from an investors point of few. Just my two cents 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Briggs Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 This is a great set. And I think the color scheme is very fitting for a shop like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Received 4 boxes of this set yesterday. I saw a (to me) new style of seal-code printed on the box. The number is in a xxxFx format, for this set specifically: 233S6. Wondering now what this exactly means? 33S6 (old style) would mean week 33 of 2016, from Factory S (Hungary), but the 2 ? Alternatively I could think of: 23-3 (March)- 2016, but the day hasn't been printed before, so why now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the 233 is the day of the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those xxxFx codes have been used before on small things (I cannot recall where I saw them last). AFAIK the first digit is day-of-the-week, then normal week code, then factory then year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HandyHand Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 For the sake of the argument, here's a photo I took of the code. The number below the seal-code is unique per box. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely it is used for very high volume items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinetu Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Dutch folks, thanks very much for posting wehkamp deal timely! </sarcasm> Good thing that all sort of nonsense about Smyths deals, that we don't have access to, gets posted in Europe deals thread and you keep deals such as these to yourselves even for sets that can only be of interest to part-outers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should get on the maillist of Brickwatch to capture such deals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After I made my order of 4 sets (I'm not that greedy and leave sets for others too ) I notified Brenner and another friend through WhatsApp. Brenner tried to make an order, but while still in the shopping cart it was already sold out. My other friend also missed out because he was too late. So, I think this deal lasted way shorter than 30 minutes, and it was completely pointless to post about it here when even a very quick Whatsapp notification was already too late!
