brickolodon Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Target got Train set on CLEARANCE for 30% OFF now (will be more later). Is it means something? Retiring already?....or just want to draw more people into stores for summer sales....freakyyyyy!!! Quote
hollywdbri Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Movie did horribly. They don't want a Prince of Persia repeat. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 With the bad reviews the movie is getting I would not be surprised the stores are just cutting their loses with the theme and making room for more popular themes. 1 Quote
comicblast Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Train was 30%, and I saw the tag but they were OOS. I saw 3 Comache Camps and a Cavalry Builder Set on clearance, all 30% off. The larger Stagecoach set wasn't on sale though. Looks like LEGO Shop at Home might be the last resort! Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Does anyone remember if Target did the same thing with their LEGO PoP stocks in 2010 ? Quote
Guest eightbrick Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 I'm hoping this stuff goes on direct clearance. With all the bad reviews I'm starting to think that the only way these will become good moneymakers as a whole theme is if they retire really quick. Quote
brickolodon Posted July 11, 2013 Author Posted July 11, 2013 target.com for $88.99.... http://www.target.com/p/lego-the-lone-ranger-constitution-train-chase-79111/-/A-14506548#prodSlot=medium_1_2&term=lone+ranger I will going to try to get it 50-70% off....just train and coach. Train for sure...coach???? nothing else. BTW train now close to MSRP on eBay.....I am not sure how many sold last month. Quote

I agree - at least the train might do really well that way. A big disappointment though. Quote
comicblast Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 target.com for $88.99.... http://www.target.com/p/lego-the-lone-ranger-constitution-train-chase-79111/-/A-14506548#prodSlot=medium_1_2&term=lone+ranger Anyone know if this is the full price that they advertised in the first place or if it is a clearance price? I assume they listed it for $99.99 like everyone else? Quote

comicblast Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 MSRP $99.99 for train set. That's odd. Usually they like to blast it in your face that it is on sale. Quote
brickolodon Posted July 11, 2013 Author Posted July 11, 2013 emazers will not agree with us about LR series. Quote
TheDarkness Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Wow. Talk about jumping the gun. Have some patience people. 30% off now is cool, but the sets are literally just out. If they are discounting them heavily now thinking the theme will tank and trying to move them, you will see further discounts. Quote

I still at home and waiting for 50-70% off....somebody will hide it for me in a store for sure.LOL Quote
Spartikis Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 hey look another Johny Depp LEGO failure, onlything decent about POTC is the BP and QA and its the pirate theme that is carrying those ships Quote
JoshTX Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Discounts aside, I had heard the film was doing badly, but the general consensus arond here seems worse than I had thought. I was coming out of my dark age as PoP was being clearanced...anyone remember how long it took for those sets to be clearanced after the gavel dropped and the film was officially recognized as a fail?

Guest ph4tb0i Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Just bought 2 trains off of Entertainment Earth. I'd rather pay a bit extra and get an order in than to be sorry later if this suddenly goes out of stock everywhere. Quote
Quacs Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Just bought 2 trains off of Entertainment Earth. I'd rather pay a bit extra and get an order in than to be sorry later if this suddenly goes out of stock everywhere. Ph4tb0i - Did you get it with a BOGO & free shipping? Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 yep. the bogo + free shipping is still on (but temporarily out of stock). 75 is close enough to 69.99 that it'd warrant 2 (1 of them is for my collection). if this is on the clearance rack then we definitely need to start paying attention to this set. might be jumping the gun a bit but better safe than sorry.

jaylay Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 i think LR series is much more appealing that the POP Lego line ... compare the sets ... LR has better playability, a train, and a nice western theme ... plus Johnny is > Jake ... Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 They ship to Canada for free too? I have it shipped to a warehouse in the US and pick it up when i make my buffalo runs. Quote
akohns Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I have a really hard time believing this theme is going anywhere THAT fast. People are finding the new Castle that retails for $99 on clearance for $69.99 at a few targets as well. I think it's just a fluke that they are getting marked down in the system. That being said I wouldn't be shocked if it was clearanced out Dec 26th and we see some heavy discounting. No retailer is going to completely discount toys for a movie that has been out for mere weeks. I've been to 5 Targets and 3 Walmarts in the last few days and every store had TLR sets in stock at full retail. Quote
