Migration Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Poof. This will be a fun ride if this set keeps doing this. The last time it sold out eBay went from 29 listings to 16 in just over 2 hours. Quote
Greedoshotfirst Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I'm worried I won't get one so I'm almost tempted to pay $65 for one on ebay...argh....wish I had placed my order yesterday as I had planned. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 It did change to sold out. We'll the new lego catalog has it marked as limited production but who really knows. We shall see I guess. Quote
brickinfinite Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 i wonder what is the upward potential for this set? the hayabusa set seems to have barely appreciated. Quote
Dalesx Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 If it really is such a limited run...you would think it has great potential. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I think that none of the cuusoo sets will be 2 or 3 hundred dollar sets...ever. I think people might have unrealistic expectations of these sets. If you did miss it just move on it won't make or break you as an investor. 1 Quote
Dalesx Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Wishful thinking maybe but it's a pretty nice model. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Agreed I think it's definitely my favorite so far! Quote

I think people might have unrealistic expectations of these sets. If you did miss it just move on it won't make or break you as an investor. Is #21100 the exception since it was the inaugural cuusoo set? I am inclined to agree with your assessment about the 2 or 3 hundred dollar trajectory. However, I'd think that may change in the future if LEGO decided to have a very limited run on a future set (i.e. 5,000 or less). One can cuusoo Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 For the newer members who might not know the first cuusoo set was only a Japan release and never was released anywhere else. Hence the crazy secondary market price. I usually exclude this set when generally speaking about cuusoo sets. Quote
Pseudoty Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 With TRU having a web page built to sell this item I think we will be seeing more. Either they had an allotment agreement or jumped the gun, not to say Lego can't cancel. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=31225306&cp=&parentPage=search Quote
holleman67 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 How did they get the rover? I.thought it was a lego exclusive set? Quote
supergman Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 Interesting b/c Lego CS stated it had a set run and once the stock is gone, that's it....today, they told me they have no more. Hmm. Quote
zskid00 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 It's also been sold out once or twice before this and came back. Keep an eye on the page. Quote
holleman67 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I've had lego c/s tell me it will be out all year since itsin the 2014 ccatalog Quote
holleman67 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 They better come back, I.have 3 orders waiting to be shipped! Quote
Maverick2k1 Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 They better come back, I.have 3 orders waiting to be shipped! I'm waiting on mine too, time will tell. Quote
brickolodon Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I didnt get it.....too many sold - so little made....or both? Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 7, 2014 Posted February 7, 2014 I think it will be back. They probably will just end up making another batch like the minecraft set. If it is gone though people had their chance to order it for a couple of days before it changed from OOS to SO. Quote
Migration Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Saw this today, it's a little long but very cool. 1 Quote
darksam007 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Spoke to CS and they mentioned it will be coming back but no timeline on when. Quote
Legodog Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Spoke to CS and they mentioned it will be coming back but no timeline on when. Mine has been on backorder for a month now. Quote
holleman67 Posted February 22, 2014 Posted February 22, 2014 Mine has been on backorder for a month now. Mine too...I bought three and still haven't gotten an email update Quote
legoaddiction Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 Never sold out in the Australian store and in pretty sure I can buy more than one. I highly doubt it will retire. These sets will be back in full force in a few months. Wait and see 1 Quote
