Best wishes to all, from an occasional kilt-wearing Scot! Hilarious. One of my best friends is from Scotland and I'd not heard that before. LOVE IT! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Think long and hard before pulling the trigger willy-nilly on the latest Star Wars sets unless the discounts are massive! So many QFLLs have bought huge amounts dirt cheap and it'll be difficult to compete for a long time. This Xmas is already swamped so it doesn't make sense for me to offload my 75% off MFs yet. There were £30 instore at several Tescos and I just arm-swept branch after branch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant-man had a 5 month life which contributed to its post EOL performance. Edited December 2, 2016 by cladner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's retired pretty much everywhere but TRU and Target. My TRU only had one left, last I checked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Keep in mind that while Sold Out in North America (LEGO Shop at Home), it's still available elsewhere (but marked as Retiring Soon).

At that price, don't forget that the first one will cost $69.99. Can't get them both for 40% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcell Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I'm not jumping in on 75150 and figure that I'll probably regret it, but I just don't like the price point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that they retire as many modulars as they introduce, PC should be going in 2017. Would also play perfectly by the 4 year rule. Well that's exactly what I said. PC would retire next after PS by the end of the 2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostDad Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 (edited) 12 hours ago, TabbyBoy said: I'm not even going to entertain the PC (I have none) unless the PS shows encouraging signs. The good old days since the FB and GE retired are long gone as we get a lot of discounts now whereas there were hardly any before. As for DO, BB, PR, etc. I'm not even looking at them! PR is the best looking of all the recent ones. I wouldn't write it off just yet, though I agree that if PS completely bombs that would change my calculations. DO is seriously out of place stylistically with the other modulars, so I'm least excited about that one. My modular neighborhood is zoned such that DO would simply not be allowed, even without the "cookie" smuggling... RE: Other Star Wars (unannounced) retirements -- The one I'm most curious about is the First Order TIE Fighter. It should be "due", but is not out of stock or marked as retiring soon. If it does go, it could do nicely being a TIE Fighter that is reasonably close to the OT version of the ship. On the other hand, I've had trouble finding it at a significant discount.

Yeah, but that RRP is grossly over-inflated. It's been available for $55 a few times now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
