Guest Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 If one reviews previous catalogs (and yes, you can access these), you will usually find sets that begin to be phased out omitted from the quarterly catalog. So, if lego were doing a major retail push for the holiday season, why omit obviously one of their strongest sellers from this year, unless of course they are being phased out because they were a short run? Makes little sense.I know my little boy loves receiving these catalogs in the mail and scours through them. Surely, they could have made a 1 page spread, or even a half page dedicated to JW if they were going to be around in mass for the holidays. But hey, i'm just trying to think about this logically.There are plenty of threads and posts here that prove catalog items mean nothing. Items not in catalog that stick around, items in catalog that retire. Whether it makes sense or not that is how it is. "But hey, i'm just trying to think about this logically."Why? That assumes TLG uses the same logic as you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, sure sets like Droid Gunship haven't been in a few catalogs, and it sticks around because not many people want it. Death Star was in last catalog, yet is absent in this one? Anyway, whatever, I don't need to convince you of anything Marx. Edited August 26, 2015 by fossilrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, whatever, I don't need to convince you of anything Marx. Jurassic World possibly might have a short licensing period? Would not be so unthinkable in my opinion.Me, except some exceptions, concerning Star Wars I only invest in OT. The new movie, if good, may widen my interest.

Val-E Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) These will be great winter flips provided kids haven´t moved on to something new by then and SW fever hasn´t swamped everyone. Edited August 26, 2015 by valenciaeric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted it when they first saw the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buidee Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 There will be another spike in interest once the new blue ray/DVDs comes out in the fall. Otherwise, it will be a long term hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labfreak7 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's been a limit of 5. There is a good possibility of further restocks down the line. May be limited, but I don't think it's done yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Raichu Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 With all of these new orders, I am afraid my backorder from 8/12 is not going to be fulfilled. They still do LIFO right ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quacs Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Just a quick heads up - people are allowed to speculate all they want anywhere in the forums as long as they are respectful.
