Belac Posted October 8 Author Share Posted October 8 The lost city is beautifully done. I'm pretty sure I have most of those pieces available to moc a close enough version for what it is though. figured they would all get funded but that was fast. grabbed a stronghold/harbor/candy. No extras for resale. The NO Included instruction books is the biggest downside of this program. I printed instructions for the Loewenstein castle expansion and realize how spendy that can get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Brick Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 I have to imagine there will be less resale on the market since the poor returns may discourage quick flippers but I guess we’ll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it all depends on how Lego lists the sets (exclusive or not) and how quickly they notify Rakuten of the purchase. Pre-orders are tricky like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had any castle sets growing up (Pirates/Space/City/Racer) but this one is pretty appealing. I am more surprised at how well the Art of Chocolate is doing. I would have thought it to potentially struggle, or be the lower of the 5. However, its hard to say if that or the Harbormaster's Office (HO) will reach sold out first between the two.

Dr Jedi Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 Art of Chocolate is the only set that I ordered. To me, it is by far the most striking of the five sets. I'm underwhelmed to a degree by the theoretical playability of the set, but in the end, that's not why I'm buying it. I know it's not a castle set, but I think this will do well in the long run. It's rather unique. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedingman5 Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 Looks like Camping will be the 2nd to sell out. So, "Castle" and "cheap" win the race. Shocked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They priced Castle perfectly at the psychological sweet spot of $300 for a big set. I wish they'd return to that price point. Mountain Fortress felt overpriced by $79, and the same with Lion Knights—it felt $100 too high. You can throw in all the extras you want, but anything over $300 feels like too much for a LEGO set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, they sent me a notice like that this morning. My single mushroom house arrived yesterday. I got the shipment notification and receipt on Monday afternoon, so only two days later than the charge was made Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the low interest for Lost City, I wonder if that one has good potential for future profit ...given a lower production run? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
