I would expect to see more recent package dates if this is coming back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veegs Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 TRU.ca doesn't have any, which is promising. When the MF line went 'exclusive' to TRU, they had boatloads of them up here in the Great White North. They still have a few MF sets in stock, in fact.

hxckid88 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 If people are still looking for these Barnes and Noble is a good bet. With some stacking and talking you can beat the tru price. I'm trademarking that... Stacking and talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickU Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) I don't think it's returning. I don't think so either. IMO Lego Group throws out some bones to their Primary Sellers TRU, Amazon etc...... hence the reason for the exclusives still popping up during the holiday season now. I think TRU got all the old stock around to sell during the holidays because of the "kid" aspect vs some others as well as its good for Lego Group & TRU to promote this set for the future existence at a toy store. With that being said, I think it goes by the wayside kind of like the 2507 Ninjago Temple just not as profitable. It should be sold out in the next 2-4 months. As far as Resale goes, TBD right now.

It was popular last year so with TRU being the only retailer with it they will OOS quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already updated listing to say limited quanties left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekgate502 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Does anyone have a guess of what they think this will sell for 6 months after retirement and 2 years after retirement? Just curious... I've gotten my fill of SSD's, TH, GE and others it doesn't make me want to jump after this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mscheaf Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I wouldn't be surprised if it sold for less in two years after eol than in 6 months. Kids may not even remember what Chima was in 2 years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supergtp1 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I recently sold the chi temple for $175 shipped. So there certainly is money to be had with this... This was one I was able to find at target during clearance for $60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroster Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Well before TRU rolled out their secret stash I think this was going for around $175. I have 4 I got on clearance and almost sold then but stupid me thought "it will be $200-250 at Christmas!". So, I would think once the TRU stash disappears it should bump back up right away to $160 or so and if that happens fast enough for Xmas....maybe? $200? It's tough to say. It is Chima but it is the set from Chima every kid will want if they do like Chima. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickU Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) They seem to be selling pretty fast. 97 left on the bay. 40 sold in 5 days. Anyway you slice it, its a Big Set. It will hold value, its a matter of how much. Oh a for the Record, with the Original Ninjago Spinner Packs, I remember WM having like a 1000+ at each store & couldn't sell any. Blowing them out for $4 in January, then the Cartoon Started started to air. Edited November 4, 2014 by Kodiak10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravenb99 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 yeah before the TRU restock sold a few at 175 and combos with Croc Swamp Hideout for $250 (175+75) so it was very popular. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickU Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 97 Left? How can you determine that? Punch it in and found out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroster Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) There are now exactly 100 available on ebay. So I wonder if TRU resets it to 100 every night and don't actually put the full inventory in there up front? Will be interesting to monitor over the next few days.... EDIT: I just punched in a few other sets on TRU ebay and all of them seem to have a quantity of 100. So I'm guessing there is some sort of auto restock if they have 100+ of something that occurs every night. Hard to say if they have 150 total or 150,000....

mscheaf Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Sounds like another TRU "retirement". At this point I hope they are out of these by next xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zskid00 Posted November 5, 2014 Share Posted November 5, 2014 Is it just me or does it seem odd that they would limit this to 2 per person if they had a ton of inventory? So far it doesn't seem like they are stocking it in stores again so they might not have enough to distribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRU I knows makes limits on Sale items regularly. IMO TRU has all that remains..... so limit 2 for a sale price is realistic plus it might be a policy set buy Lego Group that TRU agrees to going in.

sroster Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Ordered two from TRU.com and got them today in the lego box. Production was March 11 2014 so not a new run at least (and also confirmed with the seals). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauromosis Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Got mine from TRU Ebay...way crushed and put in too small a box. Should I return it to a brick and mortar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I return it to a brick and mortar?Though I hate returns at stores because one made a bad decision on an investment I strongly support sending oysters back when not packaged properly. Only way they learn. Though i love oysters and are a great for of iron and a test booster packages was the correct word. Worst typo ever.
