nolan808 Posted April 17, 2021 Posted April 17, 2021 (edited) Apparently the at st had now been extended to the end of the year. Not sure if this has been mentioned or not here. Brickfanatics and MandRproductions have confirmed this and it seems plausible given the fact it keeps coming back at Lego. It may have been planned this way the whole time for just Lego and Amazon to continue it. It seems this way in Europe anyway. I guess Australia just got an early retirement on it. I can't help to think though that re sellers have really shot themselfs in the foot over this matter and recent sales and hype over the set have changed Lego's mind somewhat.

I think this is a real thing...where resellers hoarding has delayed retirement. DO many here believe this as well? Worth some discussion. Is this type of thing limited to licensed themes such as SW (ie maximize profits to cover sunken costs) will not bode well for Gingerbread house... Quote

Brickfanatics and M&R haven't confirmed anything, they're just guessing like the rest of us Quote
Bartat Posted April 20, 2021 Posted April 20, 2021 FWIW this has come back in stock for one UK retailer (Argos) for pick up late April. Quote

As others have mentioned it's been restocked at UK retailers. It's here to stay. The many people hoping for quick money towards the end of the year may be greatly disappointed. Way too hoarded, nothing rare about it and not even a great set to begin with. Edited April 20, 2021 by raulaco Quote
redcell Posted April 20, 2021 Posted April 20, 2021 There has been no recent change in the retirement date for this set. It has been scheduled for the end of this year since well before the Cara Dune actress got fired. 8 Quote
Goblin Posted April 20, 2021 Posted April 20, 2021 SaH restock around 7th May, probably a few days sooner. Lego chasing the money. Quote
