biniou Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 My gut instinct is that the Pet Shop will retire before the Grand Emporium If it does it will be like a revolution here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostDad Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Heads will roll ? If the PS retires before the GE, I will personally call Lego and complain about how they are making it impossible for investors to predict their next move! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Sorry but the Pet Shop will not retire this year. I don't remember saying this year, I meant before the GE which may still hang on for ages due to its popularity. The PS is not such a good seller and could be at risk of premature EOL. Lego are full of surprises you know. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waddamon Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 How does anyone know what is, or is not a good seller? Lego is a private company that does not produce specific product distribution reports. I hear this being said all the time around here, and no one actually knows any of that information.

zskid00 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I am hoping 6862 goes away soon. My concern is that the winter 2015 Super Heroes wave is going to have a New 52 version of both Wonder Woman and Superman since they are featured in the LEGO Batman 3 video game coming out in November. Their costumes are a bit different, but new releases that soon would definitely hamper the secondary market prices of 6862. I don't think Lex is going to drive demand up very much.

All the counterfeits on eBay make me wary of loading up on Super Heroes sets, but I still follow the secondary market, and #6866 has held up surprisingly well in the face of (correct me if I'm wrong) reissuance of two of its three figs (so only Deadpool remains exclusive to the set). This has led me to think there's less logic in how the $20, 3-fig Super Heroes sets perform post-EOL than I had previously thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekgate502 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Brick Show put out an update today that we already knew was happening that Lego 6862 Superman vs Power Armor Lex for $18.99 is retiring.

GhostDad Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Does anyone know how long Lego has the Simpsons license? I'm assuming the CMF line will retire before October, when the next series arrives, but I'm wondering if we have any way to predict EOL for the house?

I don't think there's going to be anyone here that's going to be able to give you a definitive answer on the licence. If I was to hazard a guess I'd say two or three years.
