brandon90820 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Thoughts on the 50% off b-wing rumors? didn't they have 50% off the winter village in lego stores a few months ago? I'm wondering if I should camp out... from what I've gathered the logic in discounting it that much is it isn't selling well and there are about to be a lot of large SW sets out at once Quote
exciter1 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I very highly doubt it, maybe 20%, but no more than that. Quote
stackables Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Someone mentioned this on toysnbricks. Total BS. Quote
Maverick2k1 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I curious as to which SW sets will have sales. If b-wing goes 20% is that worth it? Have there been previous sales for this that I have just missed? Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I don't plan to buy anything other than my own 10240, but if any of the UCS sets has a decent discount I may have to get them... meaning at least 20%. Quote

Have there been previous sales for this that I have just missed?I don't have any B-Wings yet, but I've seen it at the Lego store. 20% off would be very much worth it. It's a pretty impressive looking design and bigger than the 3 3/4" version from the Hasbro action figure line. Quote
c4dreams Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 The Winter Village Cottage was 50% off recently. However, It started at 20% off, then 30% off, and then finally went to 50%. Also, it was an overpriced set IMO. The Battle for Geonosis was on sale in stores for 50% off recently, so it's not unheard of. However, if I had to bet on it, I'd bet against anything being 50% off this time around. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Yeah, but those are not $ 200 sets. I get your point, everything is possible, but I doubt TLG would be willing to reduce a UCS set to half its retail. Quote
comicblast Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Where'd you here about this? I think this is pretty unlikely that there will be a 50% off sale. Quote
brandon90820 Posted April 28, 2013 Author Posted April 28, 2013 heard about it on another site that referenced a different site where someone claimed to be a lego employee...just found the original post.... http://67.227.255.239/forum/showthread.php?t=501106&page=218 "Chuck" also claims that -Pre Viz -Y-wing -Hoth Echo Base -Palpatine's Arrest -A-wing -Anakin's Interceptor -Jabba's -Desert Skiff -Sith Fury -series 2 planets will be 10% off Guess we will know soon enough Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I got a post card type flyer in the mail promoting the May the 4th event the other day from LEGO and in very small print at the bottom it said "selected Star Wars sets on sale". *EDIT 0% chance the B wing will be 50% off!!!! Quote
stackables Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I bet the b-wing will be 20% off just like ssd last year. S&**** has been a real disappointed on the sale side this year. Quote
M4x18 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I'm not sure if the promo for the US is the same as the one in the EU. I received an email three days ago where it was stated that we'd receive free shipping on orders over 55 Quote

chinothegeeko Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 ouch only interest to me is palpatines arrest worth it to meet the $75 minimum at the 10%? Quote
JoshTX Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I'll be spending 75 bucks there that day regardless, so any discount at all would be nice, as I honestly wasn't expecting any. Quote

If this is the case, I'll be saving some money. Quote

Huskers1236 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 If true, I'll be on it like stink on manure. I don't particularly like the ship itself, but to get it half off would be too much to pass up. The other sales don't interest me, can get better deals elsewhere by far. Quote
TheDarkness Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 The B-Wing will be 50% off. That is confirmed? Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 If that's true I'll be there as soon as they open and drag my father with me to try and get 3 Han Solo Hoth... 1 X-wing and 2 B wings on separate transactions. Quote
