Ninjago city was so hard to get in the UK. Stock was a major issue for certain sets last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grabbed a few but had a very hard time selling them. Very slim profit, but at least I got points and the GWPs.

I passed on it last year but kinda regret not getting at least one... hoping it comes back so i can grab one (or two) Edited November 17, 2020 by Bricks Eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmind Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Disney Train and Apocalypseburg were great to get the GWP's. Train sets sold with 10% profit to get rid of it, Apocalypseburg sets sold with 80-100% profit I don't expect an Apocalypseburg equivalent this year... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i heard it doesn’t?)... in addition to this... anyone hear about what will be on sale VIP weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenb99 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 This weekend is just double points and the gwps. Pretty sure how it's been for awhile now. I mean I'm the one who posts the sales the last 5 years or so and that's the way it's been or how I remember it at least. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedingman5 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 (edited) Dickens will be a $100 in a year, no doubt. Many of the Christmas GWPs have no figs. This has 3 and they are collectible just on their own merits. A lot of folks are going to miss getting this, so the supply will be more reseller-heavy than normal (my theory). This will be in demand.... Edited November 18, 2020 by thedingman5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm sounds like the market could be flooded. I just hope it won't come back as an actual set sold by Lego next year. At least it shouldn't be hard to get with this new info. Maybe though it's a set to sell now and not hold seeming as we have no idea what there plans are with it are going forward. On a side note I really do wish we knew what was coming up for the actual Lego black Friday event, I don't want to end up purchasing sets that will be discounted a week later.

I regretfully sold a few of mine for sub $50 when currently going for $85+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
