Steel6T Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 It's finally live. Once again what a botched release from lego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belac Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Yes it's live! I want Just for personal build. I was only able to add 1 $20 dollar voucher though. ? I used to be able to stack a few so that sucks. I really hoped to bring the price way down so It's definitely lame they seamed to change the rules again. Now have a few $20's cashed In that need to be used soon. Great looking set though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth a try if you are very worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again what a botched release from lego LEGO never claimed a midnight release; I believe they aim for 10am...so a little early for EST.

Darth_Raichu Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 This should look good next to the Lantern Festival set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picture the Lantern Festival on a rooftop to be more consistent with urban space limits I love this motif...but the price point is pretty high. I think LEGO will/should be releasing modulars that can grow vertically as well as laterally so one can build their own "city" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great set, but it's expensive and not SW or HP. Seemed to me Docks & City really caught on at retirement, not before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliminator Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 NC and NCD were very slow sellers in my neck of the woods. Even after retirement the Docks lingered around for months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have said even money it sells out day 1. More driven by the CV-based new fans popularity of NC and NCD. I still expect it to sellout within the week. other than within insider circles, this set's release was very low key...I'm a huge NC fan, but this release only hit my radar 2 days ago. I think if it came w a unique GWP (something to do w/ the 10 year Ani (maybe a golden Destiny Bounty or dragon minibuild), that would have brought out the ninjago fans) That $300 price point has been hard to sell out: Diagon Alley took a few days even. I think recently only the Grand Piano sold out day 1 and I suspect it was low quantities by LEGO for a niche product....same for Coliseum (which also got a holiday boost & unique GWP). Mos Eisley was a quick sellout but had yoda's lightsaber boosting it. Green Lambo had mad hype. SOldout fast and stayed hot for a couple months than fizzled. Even $200 was a tough ceiling: BAtwing and Ecto eventually after almost a week I agree that both NC and NCD were slow movers until the end...their LEGO Shop at Home sale prices got seals broken and sets built and that led to really high reviews...then CV SIP+ stimulus $ made any big set bonkers and took NC into the stratosphere...I think their popularity will keep fueling this series. Those great big sets are on display in folks homes and will continue to be the envy of others. 1 minute ago, $20 on joe vs dan said: I would have said even money it sells out day 1.

Pseudoty Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Surprised I am not seeing more people parting out the minifigures on eBay Golden Wu selling for $75.

Captain_chaos Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Looks great, a must-buy for me (though I'll wait until there's a decent discount / GWP / cashback). On another note, the designer really needs to embrace his baldness. That combover does him no favours... 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mplsabdullah Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Is this going to become available at other retailers (Kohls, Walmart, etc.) or is this only going to be available directly through Lego? If so, how long does it usually take for sets like this to start showing up elsewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
