75192 - UCS: Millennium Falcon 2017

[Fenix_2k1]

Mine has shipped.  Looks like they are very keen to get them out of the warehouse. It's usually a couple of days for dispatch.

You don't have the signature of the second one?

Made the call to stick with the main man and stick with 1 signature and a specific message about related to the card number I got out of the top 100

MF UCS in my order now says "Waiting for new stock" instead of "In process"

Me too. When i placed the order it was for backorder/ship in 30 days. Did anyone order it when it showed as in stock?

Called customer service, he said not to worry, it's just that they went through the initial 14,000 sets. He said more are coming and this is not a limited edition set or anything.  Once more is in it will ship, do not need to re-order or anything.

Mine was def in stock when I ordered, but I am "waiting for new stock" as well.

Someone posted a message from LEGO on Facebook stating the set will NOT be made available on 01 OCT due to overwhelming sales, but I'm only seeing this message on their page:

Sorry. Found it now:

That's actually a really good point.  He even used VIP points on it.

yeah I was laughing out loud at that - pretty big, if unintentional, FU to any potential buyers.

"Overwhelming success" ?

[CollectorOfLegos]

I guess they underestimated the response to the release..... sold out, have to go manufacture more, don't know when they'll be ready from production..... sounds like some people are about to get paid$$$$$$$

Nonononoonnonono please have some in time for October 10th

[Cheese]

bogus bricks will probably have theirs out before the Lego's second batch is ready

[Val-E]

Soooo, 14k*800= a lot of turnover for one day. Maybe they should have made it 999.99 USD.

[BrickLegacy]

This is just LEGO playing Nintendo Games. Smart move. Now there is more of a swagger in owning one which will increase demand.

[klo1978]

I'll just have to pacify myself with this a build it 5 times.......

with the discount for iPhone X? I thing they'd double the sales even with Nexo as a part of promo.

FWIW:  I was "in stock" when ordered and I'm still at "in warehouse".

Billund at 6pm today as the Lego salesforce leave for home.

[cladner]

my order is in "Waiting for new stock"  status - that's a new one.

look at the wordy nonspecific noncommittal announcement on the webpage:

  

[exciter1]

Limit 1 too

[Val-E]

Yeah, if only they could use a few more words to tell us the score with ToA and saturn V
