belljohn Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 It seems like Doc Ock 6873 has been on sale at Walmart forever. I noticed that is sold out on Walmart's web site. As a Walmart exclusive, this seems to indicate it is on its way out? The set seems like it should be a great investment at $24 on sale. I am thinking of clearing out the last 5 at my Walmart to see if they will restock it. Good plan? Quote
@rtisan Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 This set has flown way under the radar for the most part. Not very many people talk about. That does`t say too much about it`s popularity or the interest people have in it, meaning it could go either way as an investment. As far as the ones you`re looking at, I contemplated buying some during double VIP points, because I just don`t know about it. Seen it in stores only briefly at the beginning of the year, and haven`t for months. Limited run may make it more desired down the line. If you don`t mind taking more of a gamble, then I`d do it. $24 isn`t very much to buy in at, and could very well be worth a pretty penny. We`ll have to see. Quote
KG204 Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 This was a Walmart exclusive? No wonder I never saw any. Granted, I wasn't planning on investing in any but I still wanted one for my collection (One of each marvel set, ignoring the earlier spiderman line). Quote
Titus Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 I don't have any real info on this, but with a new Doc Ock Set in 2014 - 76015 Doc Ock : Attack of the Truck - it is very likely that 6873 will go EOL very soon. Quote

BrickPick3r Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 It is different. Is there any picture of the set? I would like to have a look at it. Quote

BrickPick3r Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 http://cm4sci.wikia.com/wiki/LEGO_2014_Prelims That's cool. I want to have the doc oct and spiderman. I might wait for the new one since i like the minifig only. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 http://cm4sci.wikia.com/wiki/LEGO_2014_Prelims Damn, man! That's just about everything there! You rule! Those Mixels sure are funky and looks like Lego is using the same bags for the Minifigures. Huh, I guess they really are bringing back the Juniors line. Those Scorpions and Spiders for Chima are wicked awesome although I'm not quite a fan of those Legend Beast builds. Quote

exciter1 Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Wow, those Disney Princess sets are going to sell like hotcakes. Quote
Titus Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 A large department store here in Germany (Karstadt) has just put the 6873 Doc Ock set on sale with 50% off. Together with other 2012 Super Heroes Sets 6864, 6862, 6863, 6869... So this indicates the EOL of this sets clearly - at least here in Germany... Quote
kingleonidas Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 thanks for the info, 50% is a must grab Quote
