colm9999 Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I check on ebay today and the lowest one still in the box was 1 Quote
Alcarin Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Too bad that is still only low profits I missed that one but I somehow do not regret it... It looks neat though and defo one of the better battle packs... only maybe rivaled by Snowtrooper battle pack in my eyes. Quote
colm9999 Posted July 17, 2013 Author Posted July 17, 2013 yea your right about how it looks because I loved both of those set and I wish I got more of them when they were out 1 Quote
sadowsk1 Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 It's neat. The nice thing is that there will always be more clones so it doesn't have to be a must have to build an army. What surprises me is that stormtroopers aren't featured in more sets for as common as they should be. Quote

It was released in 2009, probably retired in 2011, 2 years after EOL and it's sitting now at 200% of it's value. Not all retired sets out there can match that percentage. It might not be the biggest amount in return, but if someone put down 10 Quote

redcell Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 The best part about this set was that it was heavily clearanced by LEGO Shop at Home and Amazon for around $5-6 when it went EOL at the end of 2011. I wish I had bought more, but I made a bundle on those that I did buy. 1 Quote
colm9999 Posted July 23, 2013 Author Posted July 23, 2013 I wish I bought some of those because of how much they are going 2 Quote

Sauromosis Posted July 23, 2013 Posted July 23, 2013 I agree with Alcarin a little...catching a 10 or 20 dollar profit is going to be eaten up by fees and shipping. Quote
