I wouldn't expect a big pop, but I could be wrong. We might get a rehashed mini of the good doctor in an upcoming Avengers set, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 So I guess there is going to be a wave of May-June retirements this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odysea11 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I'm still gun-shy with this one.They don't move off of Target shelves, and every Target near me has a shelf full. I was waiting for more discounts or clearance...but I'm not sure that's going to happen. May be a sleeper...but no one gives two sh*t's about it right now... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Logic says that as this set was included in the 6 or so sets that got the "retiring soon" status in Canada first, it will retire first in north America then europe. So there should still be a delay of 1 / 2 months for it to retire in europe. I previously thought this set would do well due to very good build + exclusive figs + performing well at cinema. However, due to the set being highlighted of impending retirement for a few months + the set being on the radar of the qf (reached 200 selling items on eBay at one point by QF and parter outers...), I'm questioning whether to buy any for investment. One key point I've learnt is that once a set has been targeted by the quick flippers, it won't reach that high post retirment. This set could buck the trend, but in Europe even if this sets does do well, I personally see the ceiling at 1.5/2 x RRP, and that woil be possibly 1 year after the quick flippers have exhausted their stash. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miami Bomb Squad Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I can order 99 sets from Target at one shot. That sums it up for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legolegolego2014 Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I'm not bullish on this one. The Dr. Strange mini fig will def pop up again with the new Thor movie coming soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregpj Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Was Ant Man ever orderable to 99?I wouldn't use Ant Man as a comparison .. the original set had quality issues and was updates causing weird supply issues.Unless of course you wanted to compare to Wall-E which had quality issues too.

terrymc4677 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Two other Target exclusives...The Zombies and The Orc Forge. The Zombies was very under the radar and had a very short run. Huge success if you targeted or lucked into this set. The Orc Forge was all the rage back in the day. Many were stockpiling at RRP since it wasn't discounted much, myself included. Dr. Strange seems to fall somewhere in the middle. Which way will it go? I never bought any Zombies. It was never discounted and then disappeared before I knew it. I had approximately thirty Orc Forges, mainly bought on the hype from BP and the success of the Zombies. I'm down to six, making a little on each one. I'm going with twenty Dr. Strange, just in case. All bought this past week during the current sale at 24% off after red card. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobo1969 Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Weird situation with this set in Canada. It was a Target exclusive... but we have no more Targets to source from! It was only available at LEGO.ca and has never appeared on any retailer shelves in Canada from what I know of. So there will be a great deal of Canadian buyers who have missed/will miss out on this set and I'm banking on a niche shortage in the after market up here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price never recovered. I sold half of them then and then had to let the price rebound to close to $90 before selling the remaining.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 I think it'll be lucky to reach 100% RRP after fees. There's been too much talk about this set for it to be rare in the future. Buyers are no longer stupid, they now mostly buy at RRP when available rather than get fleeced by resellers. I passed on these at 50% off and glad I did ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of respect for other BP's for that don't know better, you are hand picking a few scenario's(which is fine). Just please disclose for the hoard. Over the years Target, Walmart, & Toys R Us have had many exclusives for nearly every theme. This nothing new. Some last for 6 months, some last for 3 years. Each is its own scenario, hard to compare each one. Carry on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
