My lego store restocked all the JW sets today.  Grabbed an IR, T-rex Tracker, and RR.  Will go back for the rest of the sets tomorrow

If your store is the Lynnwood one, the shelves were filled with the whole series this afternoon.

It is indeed.  I had taken the only IR on the shelf on Wed, so I guess there's more in the back than what they're putting out.

Not sure why the Minneapolis area is getting screwed. I'm pretty sure I'm on the record as saying I haven't seen a JW in my area in months. I had to drive 2 hours north to find any JW sets. 

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm hello, Fargo ring a bell...........lol

Wow, such a big restock.  For those of us that don't live in major markets, there's none around, and none to be found on any of the major websites.  Last week there were a few sets available.  I guess, only lucky ones seem to be those that live in Canada or have 3 B&M lego stores in their area, and can make it there when the truck hits.

A major restock = available to the common people without much effort to obtain them.  Not send your wife in and 5 of your friends so you can attempt to get a handful.  Once again, the best way to get a good stash was obviously to buy early when the "few" said there was something odd at hand, and these might have a short lifespan.

Was selling this for $200+ like hot cakes last week, now it's not even selling at $180. Guess I'll be holding on to these long term.

It's evident to me that these are selling quite well.  Ebay has strong secondary market sales numbers, and amazon is a rotating door as well.  I've watched numbers on amazon deplete in weeks, then it rises a bit when the minor flush of sets come out and resellers grab them up at the lego B&M's, or online. 

the IR set barely gained 10 resellers over the last few weeks.  Those numbers will deplete quickly, because many jump in just happy to make 10.00 off a set and move on.

Restock was obviously relatively  small for online sites and non-existent for B&M retailers besides Lego stores. 

Just anecdotal but US mom & pop said they could not order more JW after two early deliveries that flew off the shelves.  They recommended checking LEGO Shop at Home.

Do you guys really think this theme is done?
I think they are cranking up those machines to the till. 
If you were Lego and have a massive demand, would you cut it short right before Christmas season?
No, you would squeeze every drop. Its business 101.
If you have a great product, would you end its life?

I have no idea.  The same could be said for Lego minecraft in Xmas 2013 and then again with Lego minecraft in Xmas 2014...

Has Lego been to business 101?:money:
