Nothing earth-shattering.  Orc Forge surprises me the most.

Yes it is. Saying it over and over again will not make it disappear.

If you search it then it comes up but it doesn't if you just browse through the Themes.

I finally sold my last Architecture studio today. For $400.

 

Not a bad return, but if it doesn't come back I may punch myself. lol. Not a bad return on a set I paid $125 for though. In October.

Funhouse and Barrel Escape were released around the same time. Do you think it may follow the Funhouse and end up retiring soon.

By the way, Burj khalifa is still available at Barnes and Noble's website. I don't love the set, but you can still get it.

I'm not a big fan of it being built of almost entirely grey barrels.

Some great news.  What a huge swathe of retirement updates!

 

I need to find some 79111 Constitution Trains as I don't have any in my portfolio and they've been hard to pin down.  Anyone got a a good place that ships internationally that still has them?  Might have to get a couple off Ebay or BL.

 

Someone should go and update the EOL info on the set info pages for each of the sets, get yourselves some Brickpoints 

I'll do it. Tell me how

I'll do it. Tell me how

 

Go to the page for the set.  Just below the main first table there is a "Click Here" to Add/Edit information for this set.  There is a field for retired Yes/No which you can change from No to Yes.  Then a month and year field for the date it went EOL.  Then at the bottom in the "Information Details" it's best to put a link so the data can be verified.

 

Also watch out if the fields have a little caution icon next to them with a "!", that means info has been submitted already but not approved yet so don't redo it.  E.g. I just did Fire Brigade.

 

The EOL info doesn't show up on the set page yet but will in the future so this helps us build up the data in the meantime.

Do the mods approve these or do the Mack's have to do it?

Jeff approved them in the past athough I have not updated anything since November

Thanks, just a little insomnia induced curiosity.

Sorry if this was mentioned, I didn't really want to scour all ten pages.  I noticed this was omitted from the initial list in this thread.

 

Drum roll please...

 

Vampyre Castle!  Boom!  Retired! 

Do the mods approve these or do the Mack's have to do it?

 

Jeff does them

Technic Logging Truck is also officially retired.

I think everything that was discounted and sold out is done. Cept mini modular apparently.

The Technic Rescue Helicopter isn't done quite yet.

My local tru is stocked with them

I've said it before, they won't be retiring it.  If they were, I think they would have retired it today with the whole batch of sets too.

 

My friend sent an inquiry to Lego about status of 21050 and this is their reply.

 

"Thanks for getting in touch with us.

It's great to hear you're interested in 21050, the LEGO Architecture Studio.

The demand for this particular LEGO Architecture set has been unexpectedly high and our

factories are struggling to keep up with production. That's the reason why this set is temporarily out of stock."

then their factories must have been out of white coloring ingredient since this set is OOS for almost three months now.

What color are the bricks before they dye them?

The Technic Rescue Helicopter isn't done quite yet.

It is done now.

What major set is for the chop next?  Grand Emporium?

I'll say it's around to near Christmas. Similar to the FB.

For what it's worth, I received the same reply from lego about the Architecture Studio, and that it should be coming back in stock at some point.
