You have a better chance of Lego going belly up and this set never being made again vs an unexpected short run of this set vs others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did provide an accurate retirement list to the group in q4 last year when no one else stepped up. They also said relatively short which I would take as a 2 year life . The EOL date could change later too. Flip HH if u can but idea that this will be plentiful for months or years like the good ol daze may not hold up. I want you to imagine deep pocket hedge funds getting wind of LEGO profit and setting up bots to buy exclusives drying up supply and driving up price.

Thanks for mentioning something that is worst than my worst case scenario. I thought the big/medium 3PS selling for $2 profit per sale was bad enough. Time for bubble thread???

I do suspect when it finally retires that there will be less out there due to the pandemic. Less opportunity to buy with some shelf life.

CosmicSpeed Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Has anyone here built this set? I am in the process of building mine and I have a complete duplicate minifigure (top-hat guy). I wonder if this has since been fixed. Apologies if this has been mentioned already. There are also some small printing errors in the booklet as well. Only through 4 bags (there are 18 total). So far, its a pretty fun build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was plainly going by looking at the font of the box/instructions and then the top showing all of the included figures. There are two on there, but one is in the "actual size" call out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it...it's possibly top 3 best set in recent times...and in terms of re-sale...potentially THE best since everyone loves haunted houses and fairground themes. At that RRP price point only the whales around here can tie up that much capital for a minimum of another year. I will be happy to wait it out for a potentially 20% discount and put away 2 or 3. That what us Krill shrimp do 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
