Kenxxx Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 60107 Fire Ladder Truck - released Jan 2016 - 214 pcs, 2 minifigs, including a female firefighter. RRP US$24.99. Now (Sep 2016) discounted to $13.43 on Amazon.com (46% off). So is this the next fire truck to retire in 1 year, and triple in value the next? (ref 60061 Airport Firetruck). I'm lookin' at you exciter1 ... stocking up?... or ignoring this run-of-the-mill little fire truck? Quote
dcdfan Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 Did I miss something, why do you think it's retiring? Quote
jaxman Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 The last little fire truck, 60002, is already at $34.99 FBA. I picked some up for around $15. Doing the same for 60107. Quote

The only thing that makes me not crazy about it is 60002 was out for almost 3 years. It was also discounted throughout it's lifecycle. 01 Dec 12 - 16 Nov 15 $19.99 Quote

They sell pretty quick too. 1 Quote

I was under the impression that Lego rolls out new Fire Trucks pretty often, like almost annually. Guess I have to rethink that. Quote
Brenner Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) 60112 seems a better ride to me...crossing full speed through the City streets.....wiewiewiewiew..........nice! Edited September 16, 2016 by Brenner typo Quote
jaxman Posted September 16, 2016 Posted September 16, 2016 60112 looks like a great set and at $50 I believe will cap the other fire trucks in the high $30's range. I will definitely be picking up some 60112 on discount. Quote
