HandyHand Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 25 minutes ago, Frank Brickowski said: In the London store it costs 45 GBP while the German price is supposed to be 40 Euros. For the piece count 40 Euros seems to be in line with the previous 3 sets of the theme. How come it is 45 GBP in the London store? Seems a little bit overpriced. Maybe LEGO anticipates a further drop in value of the GBP to equal or maybe even below Euro level? And they've already priced the London Skyline set accordingly? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebrickdad Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I was there for about 4 hours today and only saw a dozen or so people win one. Mind you, there are only 275 produced. One lady said it would be a perfect stocking filler for her 5 year old. I didn't have cash on me otherwise would have offered her £50 cash there and then...

None of the watchers will be interested in spending that much. They'll just be keen to see if it sells. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the price of Mr Gold now and this could be worth a lot more! An ex colleague also got one but, the silly sod sold it to a collector outside in the queue for only £100 once we got outside - he didn't ask me! Well done! The 21034 is dreadful value for money and will be everywhere withn a few weeks. The time to sell is now. I've listed mine to just break even as I was only trying to bump up my purchase for the freebies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is for me to keep and build and the other is for a friend. I kind of went for the experience (which was mixed) and the fact that right now I can easily go without hassle from work.

Same here, I didn't really intend to buy anything at first and only got the 21034 and London Bus to get the freebies. I've just sold my 21034 for £65 and 40220 for £15 this morning which paid for my visit last night. As experiences go, it's nowhere near the top of my list ;-) It was worth my 10min wait in the queue but, I'm glad I waited no longer than that and I doubt I'll go again.

Villager Chris Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Still not available from any major retailer. Unusual, as all other Architecture sets are plentiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakchem Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Is it the right time to discuss this set? With all 2017 skyline sets are gone (Chicago and Sydney), I don't know how much time London still get. Hopefully not as long as New York....

Yes, especially with the likes of Amazon France having it at -50% compared to UK prices. I've been getting friends to load up for me over there and I'll pick them up on my next booze cruise this Summer. I think London is a dreadful city, but a lot of foreigners love it so it's a chicken dinner in my book ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoSteve Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 Getting ready to load up on this set now. I doubt it will go EOL in Q4 but there aren't many options. I want the U.S. Capital but wont pay MSRP & have close to 500 NYC now so this is my only option to diversify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no rhyme or reason anymore. If you play the whole architecture field you'll come out good in the end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goblin Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 I see London has dropped to £34.99 in the UK at SaH, around 23%. That'll stop the Euro imports and hit people with stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
