the more you need to write "limited edition" on something.......

Geez, next thing, you're going to tell me that my prized Franklin Mint plate set isn't really a collector's item.

With flower shop seemingly “coming back” after being sold out, what do you guys think of the set 40712 coming back later this year like the limited classic sets from last year.

Release a few, let it sit a bit on the aftermarket to drive up FOMO, then release the big wave of it knowing buyers are salivating. Seems like standard procedure at this point.

I’m thinking the 2024 summer city drop would be the perfect timing for it to make a comeback.

It was going for as low at $39 shipped on eBay when I looked yesterday, that's like a 5$ profit all said and done.

Yep, saw that too, but that’s the pre-sold out price. Once it sells out, would we see a spike in price for such an iconic related set?

My thing is will it EVER sell out? Look Wonders of the World "Limited Edition" is back now for a FOURTH time. I am just going for the complete set of the Ninjago City GWPs and don't think I will do two sets. 

This years D2C Nijago set sounds similar to Temple of Airjitsu but with a Dragon.

I downloaded the free version of the DnD book. Zero points to redeem in rewards. Its 20 pages but 2 pages are the cover and back so I'm assuming its the exact same thing just in print version

Placed my order at 0:02 EDT and my items are In Warehouse, except the Mimic Dice Box, which is still marked as "In Process". Chatted with CS about it and got this answer:

Hopefully that is true, otherwise I will be returning the set ....

I'm in the same boat and just called CS. According to them, they still have stock for the Mimic in the warehouse and according to the system my copy has been confirmed and set aside.  For whatever reason, it just hasn't been updated in the system as added to the order yet, but they see no reason why it wouldn't be.

Like you, I hope it's true or it's going back...

I just priced out printing the PDF version using Staples (option "Booklets"). $15.88 pre-tax & shipping for 8.5x11 (one size smaller wasn't much cheaper), Standard white paper inside with a glossy cover. Delivery is $8.99, but I think that is independent of how many copies you order. 

If you do Basic paper for all pages you can pick up in-store for $14.38 pre-tax.

I'm sure some of you know cheaper options.

My order still says in warehouse including the minifigure factory with the custom printing on it hoping it does not delay shipping as I presold the Minifigures from the set for $160.
