TheOrcKing Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 I was thinking more along the lines of this,this or this!!!!! Well those are good too. ......Still want that free t-shirt. If those sets are for employees only, why do they have 7+ years on them? Do they have employees under 7? It seems wierd to even have the age listed on there at all. Boba Fett was a mandalorian though. While Boba Fett's armor was Mandalorian, there wasn't anything definite to him actually being a Mandalorian himself. Not that I know of, anyway. Quote
TheDarkness Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 How long do people think the 6860 Batcave has left? Quote

Rich B Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 How long do people think the 6860 Batcave has left? At least through the end of 2013 probably. Possibly longer. Quote

That tidbit might have been revealed in one of the graphic novels. Shows how much I know, doh! At least through the end of 2013 probably. Possibly longer. Online, possibly. Instore, probably not.

TheDarkness Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Apologies for posting it in here and starting a thread. Obviously way too tired and asked the question in my head 100 times, let alone posting multiples. Are all those earlier Super Heroes sets on the verge of disappearing? (Batman, Avengers, Wolverine?) Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 Are all those earlier Super Heroes sets on the verge of disappearing? (Batman, Avengers, Wolverine?) I'm pretty sure of it. I haven't found anymore of last year's SUPER HEROES sets at Wal-Mart for the last couple of weeks, and at Target I had found just a couple of stragglers but I think they're gone too by now. Quote
allegory Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 "Methinks he protestith to much" He secretly wants to be a Lego Store employee... ... you get a shirt and everything! Not to mention the 30% employee discount, though I bet that there are limits as to when you can buy and how many... Quote
kerrmando Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 I think the old super hero sets will be discontinued soon! They are getting harder and harder to find, actually almost any sets with just four digits are getting harder to find at walmarts and targets Quote
bricfix Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 I was just on the Lego websites and noticed the followings sets are listed as retired. 9465 Zombies (No surprise) 10222 Winter Village Post Office (Thought this set might have one more year) Quote

Looks like I missed the boat on that one Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 'Zombies' is like the Holy Grail of Lego investing on this site! if by zombies you meant the 10179 MF, then yes I agree 100%!!! Quote
Rich B Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 'Zombies' is like the Holy Grail of Lego investing on this site! Wow!! I thought the Post Office had more time too. This is going to catch a lot of people of guard. I'm glad I bought a couple of them, definitely wish I had bought more though! Quote
Rich B Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 It is crazy that the bakery is only 'sold out' and not 'retired product' even though it came out before the post office. Quote
redeemed763 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Probably goes to show how utterly bogus the site is on this kind of stuff, we will see if it comes back. I can't believe the bakery isn't eol already, it never even hit most of the lego stores this year. Quote

I can't believe the bakery isn't eol already, it never even hit most of the lego stores this year. That's probably because the bakery was at all the stores in 2010 and 2011. Quote
Rich B Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Im guessing the Post Office wasn't selling as well and that's why they EOLed it after only 2 years. This just shows how unpredictable Lego is with their retire dates. Quote

spener90 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I bought the Bakery... I hope it's done and the Post Office is back. Quote
Grolim Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I think the old super hero sets will be discontinued soon! They are getting harder and harder to find, actually almost any sets with just four digits are getting harder to find at walmarts and targets That's a good point. I've been using the 4 digit sets as a rough guide as to what is old and probably on the way out soon when out shopping. Quote
Rich B Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I bought the Bakery... I hope it's done and the Post Office is back. That's what I'm hoping too, but from the looks of Shop at Home it may be the other way around. Quote
spener90 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 If not, I may have to sell off a few bakeries for a quick profit and pick some more up in November again. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 That's what I'm hoping too, but from the looks of Shop at Home it may be the other way around. Talk about surprise. And some people think LEGO investing is easy ;) Quote
redeemed763 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I am still trying to get my mind around this and wondering if maybe something isn't right on LEGO Shop at Home or perhaps it will be re-released next Christmas. The post office is selling cheap right now and the bakery is fetching a good return. Quote
