macpro76 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 From February 13-15, you can earn Double VIP Points on the LEGO Architecture White House (21006) during Presidents’ Day weekend. Would this be a good investment, to stock up on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmelt Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 No. Someone recently asked the same thing. This has been on sale at Amazon for a way better deal than SAH 2x points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A last ditch effort by Lego to unload this. I think it went as low as 33% off on Amazon.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying from Amazon right now would be the better deal as reported by @exciter1 in the DD @ $39.99... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjbdeebo2 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 That is what I figured when they were discounted at SAH. This set has a limit of 99 from SAH but is only available from amazon and walmart. Sold out everywhere else. Hard to see this one retiring soon.

I'd be very surprised to see this or Lincoln Memorial retiring this year with The Capitol Building being released in the architecture series shortly.

fossilrock Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 (edited) I think the White House, Big Ben, and Trevi Fountain get culled this year. I've been noticing a lack of restock with these sets at local B&N, and BAM that are following similar patterns to other sets that did retire later in the year. The stock thins around this time, and there is no major restocks. I noticed the Trevi Fountain is starting to get thinner and thinner in my area, while the Eiffel Tower still gets restocked. So, similar to last year when I saw the White House getting restocked around this time, but didn't see LTOP, BG, and UN Building getting stocked, I suspect we see the 3 retire by years end because stock levels are thinning, and no major restocks have occurred at my local BAM, especially. Usually they'll restock within a month once a set sells out, or is down to just one, and those sets have yet to get restocked.

My BAM has still been restocking United Nations and Villa Savoye, even after the holidays this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but you live in the twilight zone and seem to run well behind normal times and prices. You'll be telling us about brand new $20 Deathstars before the year is through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UN hasn't gone away from Amazon yet. It's one of the last holdouts from last years retirement phase. The rest have, and they are all starting to rise a bit. The Imperial Hotel has seen a nice bounce, and I think it will follow the path of Fallingwater, and maybe even surpass it, since it's a lot less hoarded.

It is the oldest set available so that's something to consider but because it's an iconic US landmark I could see this one lingering for a few more years.

But 5 years seem to be very long. No other architecture set went so long and in december 2016 should be a new retiring phase or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdfan Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 So, this was last night at Target. I didn't have any success as I would've posted after I had purchased but I thought I'd post this for posterity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
