Val-E Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 Dumber than a bunch of rocks to list one of these at auction ending at lunchtime on a Tuesday, but still sold for well above RRP. http://www.ebay.es/itm/LEGO-TECHNIC-PORSCHE-911-GT3-RS-42056-100-MISB-NEUF-/162092945085?hash=item25bd7e0ebd:g:maAAAOSwmtJXUsm7 Quote

Quality assurance must have been sourced out recently - or given up entirely. Quote
marcandre Posted June 7, 2016 Posted June 7, 2016 Currently ranked #1 seller on LEGO Shop at Home. Don't recall ever seeing a technic set there. Quote

Buchimuer Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 Did anyone hear when LEGO Shop at Home might have it in stock again? One of the staff told me there will be more stock coming tomorrow. Keep checking on them. Quote

I hope TRU got it in store soon! (Or... maybe not...) My guess is that it will be $379.99 at TRU if they ever get it. That 20% will get you close to retail. TRUTH will give a final push to just under retail. Quote
plastic passion Posted June 8, 2016 Posted June 8, 2016 so I got home today after running some errands, and there was a decent size Lego box there on the porch. i figured, wow, my Porsche is here already even though it was on back order (when i ordered it) The shipping box was large, but not as large as a Tumbler in a shipping box which I am familiar with. anyways, i open her up and this is in it.... ???? I got my much valued wall stickers I ordered, along with my fountain to crash my Porsche into..... but they also threw in a tank to bulldoze the fountain with??? is this a mistake, or something they do? receipt says legoland ticket voucher, fountain, and lego friends wall. total of $3.75 will the Porsche stil come? (scratching head) pp 3 Quote

Based on the packing slip, I'd say the Porsche is still on it's way. Re: the turbo tank... they just put those in there to help keep the stickers nice and flat... it's totally normal, and a free gift for you Quote
toni8284 Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 I talked to the store manager yesterday. He was tell me why the LEGO Shop at Home is out of stock. The reason is the big heavy instruction book will damage the boxes surrounding it, when the UPS/Fedex driver throw them around. So all the stock that was for LEGO Shop at Home,they are sending to the stores to sell it. Maybe they are working on the new packing inside (maybe instruction book at the bottom?). The expect delivery date of end of July. So other than that, there is nothing wrong with the instruction or missing pieces. This is FYI, you can choose to believe or not, it's up to you. Quote

He did point out there's a mistake in the instructions. At around 3:40-3:55. He did credit the fix to a Technic fan. Quote

Yeah my store told me pretty much the same thing a week ago (Roosevelt Field, NY store) Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 So how many QFFLs does it take to build a winning LEGO Technic Porsche? Quote
Val-E Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Now available on backorder at EU SAH so expect a race to the bottom from the Ebay quick flippers! Quote
iahawks550 Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Without reading back to every page and dismissing every rumor..... Are these serial numbered? Is there any reason to buy now rather than waiting (for investment purposes) Quote

Iluminadings Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 It really sucks that it will be available in 30 days. I own 13 Set's at the moment. The delivery was a little bit late.... Quote
