Alpinemaps Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 PLENTITUDE strikes again Backorders accepted once more. If you guys would stop trying to order, and then getting cancelled, the final few of these would get picked up. Lol 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudcatsfan Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I think we've been looking at this all wrong. Having the set in the catalog is perhaps a huge benefit by advertising a set unavailable at retail. the set is likely done and this is just cancellations and small stock returns. If so, thank goodness it's in the catalog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gone. 264 live 1411 sold 95 shipped is the current floor, but a few with for a creased box at 93. many others sitting at the 99.99 level. The dip never happened. I'm impressed. 368 live 1600+ sold Many sold recently at 80 shipped. Perhaps due to the new backorder accepted flurries. 80, 83, 85 is the current floor for live BINs.

brickvoyeur Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Picture supposedly from the Lego Brand store in Mexico City. The person sharing the picture on Reddit says that they get new stock multiple times a week. The 899.99 price is approximately $40 Edit: Another shot, this one from from the Holocron Toy Store in Texas, selling for under RRP at $35.99 Edited September 28, 2020 by brickvoyeur 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotorCityMuscle Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 interesting that it seems to be only available at these non-chain toy shops. maybe because it was supposed to only go to Target? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waited on the phone for about 30 mins, and the rep persuaded me not to cancel my order as this set won't be remade. She said the initial production that was slated for SDCC sold out quickly, so they decided to get the factory to produce one more batch. This second batch sold out and backorders will ship on 10/08/20. She said it won't be produced again. We all know to take that with a grain of salt. I decided not to cancel my order. I'm sure I'll break even at the very least and hope what she says is true. Might be more than a year hold. That's how long I held my Vader bust for before unloading for a nice profit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the "SDCC" moniker is just a label to LEGO with no actual production requirements...clearly just a suggestion of scarcity and LEGO can abuse based on what perceived precedence they want to set. in short, LEGO just F'in w/ us...like always but this year it's just a bit more in-your-face 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bricklectic Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I don't understand how "one more run" makes sense when it ends up in some random retailers store. If they got ahold of this highly coveted set, surely other retailers did as well? More then meets the eye here methinks. Might be worth quick flipping this one....

They are throwing a bone to their partners by giving them a highly desirable set. It makes perfect sense from a business perspective.

BricksBrotha Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 So 1 question comes to mind, are these sets poppin up in the wild, part of the 'first run sold out quickly' or 'one more batch'?!? I already qf'ed my Target order. Now waiting on my 2 separate orders from SatH. Both orders included a VIP rewards 'originals' artwork and are still saying on back order. I did find it interesting SatH listing for this now includes a store stock locator. Did anyone find these in their local Lego stores??

Ogelwoc Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 I received mine from the second run from LEGO Shop at Home. 26R0, maybe it’s done just some excess stocks they found. Never know with LEGO nowadays.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
