My noteworthy observations: Donald&Pluto brickheadz gone Steamboat willie & Friends available New york& London still there 😒 Flintstones Sold Out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, just briefly accepting backorders... only to have the backorders canceled. Lego is also going Lorena Bobbitt on their dickens as well if they didn't know to add the customary keychain.

coelian Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I've been waiting on my diner order from a few retailers for a long time. I'm not sure if they will ever be fulfilled. I did managed to pick up 8 from another local online shop but I don't have anywhere near the numbers I wanted. Oh well time will tell.

coelian Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I recall clearly last year parisian restaurants were available quite readily right until the black Friday sales where you cna get 30% off before it was swept up. This year diners dried up about 2 months ago, one of the department stores has an online inventory and there were none in the whole country when I checked on Thursday. Many here are trying to sell the diner for above rrp already. Should have bought more during my trip in France during summer but the space was taken up by treehouses..

I figured that it was a joke but still, checked it out at BrickSet. You got me! Year and part count is 1969. However, in the LEGO video the creators admitted the part count was merely coincidental as it was originally 1968 pieces. But when they added the brick separator, which was the plan - 1969 pieces.

starwarsxpress Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 thanks guys for the advice what is amazing is the new Ferrari I think looks even superior to the Porsche and I think it looks very good for what it is worth amazon is down to about 700 of the beetle, moving quickly and target, Walmart, bn and lego are out on the fence if I want one but it is last call for the beetle I really would like a full size to put with my mini beetle as a set 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree because it's the most appealing to me, but on the other hand it is Technic. The orange one really didn't do anything until Covid hit -- although the $150 price point helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
