So the the leftover stock from the first production run of 75106 is finally running out? Even at half price, no one is buying this set.

Not surprising as it's not an iconic OT set ;-)

Is the M. Falcon 75105 retiring soon?

 

I doubt it and I expect it to be around until EP8. Anyway, it's been discounted heavily and will be massively hoarded with the undercutters out in force for a long time. Glad I sold all mine for £60 each (£30 at Tesco instore) when I did.

You really should stop talking about yourself in third person Tabby, people are going to start thinking you're losing your marbles.

I wouldn't call selling 20x £30 sets for £60 each within 2 months without listing/packing/fees/postage to worry about, a loss of marbles ;-) Mark my words, those that bought into 75105 MF at £90 (typical price) or RRP could be heading for frustration and disappointment further down the line. We're not in the golfen era of SW anymore. Honestly, I hope those that bought heavily into the new MF do well out of it.

BTW... Those 10x LOTR ships (£60) that you left behind went for £110 each this week ;-)

Did you see the General Grievous set for £6 in Sainsburys Yorktown last week? There were about 4 on the shelf stickered as reduced last Thursday - I left them.

I'm confused. Are we talking about the mile high club now?

It's a plane and collectors won't have a pretty violet one unless they buy this! ;-)

BTW... I'm a member of the mile-out not mile-high club.

Grand total of 5 sold in the last 3 months on our eBay.  

No wonder, it's still widely available even though retired. I bought some a while back for £29.99 so I could cash in now, but this will reach £100+ soon ;-)

Perhaps , but only 8 listings here so hardly widely available. 
Edit : snuck in there Alucard.



Falls down to lack of visibility to us, we don't have an offical LEGO store and DJ/TRU getting exclusives limits what the greater public knows what is out. This is what will hurt sets like Temple of Airjutzu, etc
