Color me shocked it wasn't already retired. When another parent told me this is what their gift was at a birthday party a couples months back, I was like, huh, I thought I bought all those a year and a half ago (I had). 2 Quote

Next January, there will be 5 modulars on the market: AS, Bookstore, Police Station, Hotel, and Jazz Club. Seems like two too many. Lego clearly can handle more sets in rotation at one point, at least online. My store is small, so older sets are often not on the shelves. They will prob let 2 go next year. DO and BB went together. I think TH and something went in the same year too, maybe GE. Quote

Bricklectic Posted December 28, 2022 Posted December 28, 2022 Bad news regarding bad batch: Amazon Canada has got minimum 1 thousand units in the warehouse. Gotta assume Amazon America has at least 10x their canadian counterpart 1 Quote
Captain_Obvious Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Does Walmart always post a "Retiring Soon" page? https://www.walmart.com/browse/lego-retiring-soon/0/0?_refineresult=true&_be_shelf_id=7406689&search_sort=100&facet=shelf_id%3A7406689&page=2&affinityOverride=default 1 Quote

gmpirate Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Maybe they figure why discount, just mark "retired" and they will sell. 1 Quote
Shortbus311 Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Barnes and Noble has been marking sets as retired for a few years now. Quote
redcell Posted December 30, 2022 Posted December 30, 2022 Looks like bad news for the Architecture fans out there. Appears as though Paris, New York, and London were all extended for at least one more year. 2 1 Quote

But now they extend the shelf lives way too far and they have failed to come up with anything new or desirable for some time now. Very sad as I was an Architecture completionist, but have now lost all of my interest in Architecture. Also...every time I walk into my storage....I feel like my New York's and London's are outright mocking me! Where's the dead money thread?! 2 Quote

I just looked back and other than this year’s Singapore Walmart clearance I haven’t bought a single architecture set since 2017 Guggenheim, and haven’t built an arch set since the three 2016 Skylines. Icons, sets like the colosseum and Eiffel Tower are the new Arch. 1 Quote

I do think the Great Pyramid set that came out this year is nice but it's the first good set they've released in a few years. I was never a fan of the skyline sets and they kind of killed my interest in the line. I still have my Fallingwater and Robie House on display and probably always will. Quote
Pseudoty Posted December 31, 2022 Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) There are more not all Themes have been updated yet like: icons, creator, ideas, city and more. There are a few sets that had 8/1 price increases that did retire. Almost all the BHZ got wiped out except the Mando/Child Edited December 31, 2022 by Pseudoty 1 1 Quote
