That's great news! The price stalled for quite some time on the B-Wing, however things started to move slowly. Slowly but surely!

 

Other thing I notice is... there isn't many of them either. I know its a rare set and it had a short life span bla bla bla, but it's pre-Christmas season already and I expected to see more of them available on ebay. Is it because people might be keeping the B-Wings for 2015 when the new movies come out or this set finally started to perform well?

I have no idea how many B-wings are sold... but I saw it did not sell well in collishop. Remained almost stagnant stockwise (20+ something) for months and months. Then there was a good promo and they flew out. I do believe it is scarce (and cool) enough to make up for its impopularity.

Is this set officially a failure now? Think I will just put mine up for auction and see what happens just to get rid of them.

pm me with store link or info. please

So I will take all that as a yes, it is a massive failure and I should definitely dump mine. Thanks.

 

If you bought in at MSRP then yes it was a bad investment decision.  Those of us that got in at $99 plus minifigure and Chima promos are sitting just fine.  It hasn't even been 2 years since it retired and the Star Wars hype will be in full swing later this year.  Stay on target.

Dump them if you want, but I think you'll regret that decision in the future.  This set is a slow climber because of the $99 buy in, but it is climbing.  Hold onto them for another couple of years and you'll make good money.

 

I missed out on the $99 deal, but still bought in at $150.  I don't regret that at all.
