diablo2112 Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) which applied correctly to this would mean for LEGO Shop at Home " All retiring set will eventually have limit of one (unless they go on sale) but that does mean that all set with purchase limit of one are retiring " SAH is literally shoving 10241 (EEE) out the door to deplete stock and reach retirement. They raised the limits from 2 to 5 and labelled it "Retiring Soon". Not all sets will follow this rule. Edited February 24, 2015 by diablo2112 Quote
Ciglione Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Maybe i can anwser it with a question. Why should Lego retire TB without a replacement? There is a replacement. The Opera House. Quote

exciter1 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 I won't be the one who brings up the inherent rarity of the non-Disney variant. Quote
ED-209 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Sadly, I did not take a photo. I am at another mall atm, and at kmart I saw a large number of SW sets with the Disney logo. I can take a pic of those of you like, or were you specifically after the ISP? Quote
MathBuilder Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 It's up to you, if it is as easy as one tap on your phone then we'll appreciate if you do. It is interesting to see that they are doing it with small and medium-large (ISD) sets. Wonder how long will it take for the Slave I to have a logo. Also if the scarcity of Red 5 might have anything to do with this and maybe soon it'll be back in full force with the logo? Also of interest would be to see the codes on those sets, I am assuming fairly recent, week 7 to 9? Do you get an _ _S5 in Australia? Quote

Sorry, I was in a rush to pick up my missus and bub so I was unable to get codes. I did, however, take a couple of phone snaps of some sets: This stock is pretty new, not sure when it appeared. No more than a week or 2 at most. Edited February 25, 2015 by mike_eldorado Quote
Jules_K Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 These all appear to be the 2015 releases with the Disney branding, which is nothing out of the ordinary. I don't see any OT sets with the Disney brand? Quote

I don't see any OT sets with the Disney brand? Like I said, it was in another store that I saw the ISD. That and the AT-AT. I noticed Disney logos on the sets, as it had been mentioned somewhere on the forum that Lego were going to do it. Perhaps I am wrong, I will have to check it out next time I'm there. Quote
Jules_K Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Ahh sorry i misread what you said. I'll keep an eye out in my local stores as well to see if there's any changes there. Quote

No worries, I'm not too big knowledge-wise on SW investing, so I wasn't looking too hard. Apologies if I have mistakenly raised hopes. It was at Myer and I went there to check out their 20% off sale. If one Myer has it, then I would assume the others would too. Quote
jal4u2c Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Was at Lego tonight and picked up the Valentine set [sold out on LEGO Shop at Home] and asked about 10240 Red Five. He said he had one left in back and they wouldn't be getting anymore. So i grabbed it as well and used my coupon for the free Hoth Han. Next trip will be in March for double points! Quote
Achilles Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 This isn't exactly retirement news, but Ninjago Golden Dragon disappeared from SAH US in January, already a decent gain. Also, my hunch is Captain America Vs. Hydra is on its way out as well, seems to be disappearing off local shelves near me and not being replenished. 1 Quote
biniou Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Ninjago Golden Dragon Awesome potential with this little set. Got with 30% off and sold x2 RRP on Xmas. And it's still climbing. If it has just been sold out on the US LEGO Shop at Home (!) I guess it means it's still available in B&M shops (!!) : do not wait, grab lots of them. http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=70503-1 1 Quote
Achilles Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Only retailers that have a couple here and there are marked up TRUs, I don't have a LEGO Store nearby so I haven't checked there. Quote

Should be a nice little profit when we sell! Quote
