Deez_Brickz Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 I just bought 4 off Bricklink for $50 each last week. I would load up now while you can. I really like this set for the inclusion of 2x Nazgul and 2x black horses. Even though the build is criticized the lack of any future set with Nazgul will drive the value up. I am regretting not buying more when Walmart had online for sale. Quote
redeemed763 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 I still have five of these sitting in my shopping cart at Walmart.com for $42, I really need to checkout before they are discontinued. Quote
Blackjack Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 It seems that many people had low opinions of this set awhile ago, but now, it is the most discussed LOTR set! #theintreague ;) Quote
whiteboy02 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 I just went to Target today and I'm not sure if they had it or not because I wasn't looking for it. Quote
spener90 Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 I still have five of these sitting in my shopping cart at Walmart.com for $42, I really need to checkout before they are discontinued. I would definitely get on that... Quote
Huskers1236 Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 There are still a ton of them around here, trouble is, they are still at full retail. Quote
Rich B Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 There are still a ton of them around here, trouble is, they are still at full retail. Same here, I noticed my 2 closest Lego stores still have a lot of them, but as you said they're still retail. Quote
Grolim Posted April 20, 2013 Posted April 20, 2013 Now is the time to buy if you want them, fast running out of most stores. I've said it before, but the future value really hinges on the Nazgul & Merry minifigs and the black horses. if they remain exclusive to this set then it should to average to well, if not then I'd see pretty modest returns.

zmaster18 Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 My walmart has it on clearance!!!! It was $75, now only $70!!! What incredible savings!!!! Also Gandalf Arrives was $15.85, now $15!!! Wow! 85 cents!!! I have concluded that lego investing is just not possible for Canadians like me who can never find deals :( Quote
Marker Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 For canadians check out amazon uk sometimes you can get good discounts there ... I picked up a helms deep for $110 canadian thats with shipping and duty charges so deals are out there im in the same boat, being a canadian lego investor is hard work so we have to make really good decisions on what sets to buy considering canada gets 30% mark up for retail sets right off the get go. Brickpicker is esential for our success in canada. Quote
terrymc4677 Posted April 21, 2013 Posted April 21, 2013 i sure am glad that i got 20 at $18.50/each! i love shopko! muahahahaha! Quote

Just pick your sets carefully. It's still available in the UK. Quote
Strytlr Posted April 24, 2013 Posted April 24, 2013 I was just looking at Weathertops on eBay, and I saw someone already had it listed as EOL. That's jumping the gun because it isn't official, but at the same time I see the prices already going up because it's out of stock in a lot of places. There were some at TRU the last time I was there, but with their markup it probably isn't worth it even with the 20% off coupon. I wish I had more of this one. I only have the one, which I already built. I would love to have more ring wraiths! Quote
nolanfan34 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I would check Target for these. Someone else posted this as well, looks like Target might start clearing them out at $42. I saw two on the shelf this morning at that price, so sounds like it might not be isolated to just a single Target. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 It's official now: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Attack-on-Weathertop-9472 Quote

akohns Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Is the limit on this set usually "1"? http://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Battle-of-Helm-s-Deep-9474 Quote
Huskers1236 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Is the limit on this set usually "1"? http://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Battle-of-Helm-s-Deep-9474 Lego is really starting to limit the sales on these big sets because of resellers and investors. They even started cancelling people's orders if they saw orders that had multiples of these sets. They are definitely trying to curb what many of us are trying to do, though I don't buy from them much anymore anyway since Amazon can blow away their prices. The only sets I'll buy from Lego now are Exclusives. Quote
akohns Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 It appears to be gone from Target's website: http://www.target.com/c/toys/-/******-5xtb0/Ntk-All/Ntt-lord of the rings/Ntx-matchallpartial+rel+E#?lnk=lnav_narrow by category_4 Quote
Eremis77 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Walmart still has them available to ship, I just ordered two. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 Around here you can still find it in several different places. I'm debating whether to get one around $ 47 but leaning towards no. Quote
akohns Posted April 26, 2013 Posted April 26, 2013 I've been to 4 Walmarts and 2 targets in the last 7 days and only saw a few at one of the walmarts. I haven't seen them in our Targets for a while now. Quote
chinothegeeko Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I'm waiting for these to go on clearance. There are a ton locally, all at $59.99 Quote
exciter1 Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 Most KMarts didn't clearance them yet, so they are plentiful there. Quote
