KShine Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) When the time is right , sell it w/o the box - Lower shipping for you, lower price for the buyer. If by some unlikely chance it is readily available going forward - then you could build it. Edited July 5, 2020 by KShine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front and rear derailed on him rather easily and the middle section is fixed/straight and pushes the limits of making corners without any horizontal rotatation the wheel sets. It's funny, he even bought a conductor's hat but was too down about its ability to drive he wouldn't wear it. Jang update: Removed rubber bands on wheels to stop track hopping. Shows a custom build technique to help close the gaps l between the cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickStanley74 Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 (edited) Got one a week or so ago from Amazon. Is it normal for these to arrive sealed in the LEGO packing box with the "Don't put on shelves until July 1st" sticker on the front?

IDK...depends...some see it as a lot of waste I recently did a local face-to-face deal on the Lambo in it's nifty outer LEGO box W the additional ends cushion...I was floored when he just wanted to take the set...I was like...but...but...(I mean I rather have it in that box just for the ride home...you'know). The dude dropped $550 for the set and just threw it in his trunk (I could see the Uber driver tag on his windshield..I doubt he was THAT well off) I think a lot of us have that "reseller baggage" caring about things only the top 1% cares about Edited July 13, 2020 by $20 on joe vs dan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasamuneHonjo Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Is this set worth buying at retail price right now? As a new release, when do people planning to shift these sets? I see it taking years to retire, what are people's strategies with this set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now it isn't even available to order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
