Greedoshotfirst Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Ok so here is my problem, I have 1 Haunted House and really want to open it but have told myself not to do it until I get another one to keep sealed. I'm wondering how long this set is scheduled to be around? Other similar priced items that are on my need list include: Arkham, r2-d2, UCS Xwing, Grand Emporium & Tower of Orthanc. Just wondeirng which ones are expected to be on their way out so I be sure to get them....Or am I just better off saying to hell with that and buy another Haunted House? Quote
hxckid88 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 there are several threads on this. But to answer your question I believe everyone here will agree that out of what you posted the GE will go first. Quote
siddji Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I would open it. Even used it ahould be worth good amount once its retired. Quote
Doofy McGee Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 there are several threads on this. But to answer your question I believe everyone here will agree that out of what you posted the GE will go first. Yep, if you need a Grand Emporium, get it now. Everything else you mentioned is relatively new and should not be nearing retirement. The next one from your list to retire is likely to be the Haunted House though. Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 No one knows unfortunately. But I sort of doubt the Haunted House will last two years past the monster fighters line. Although I can't believe they aren't adding to the line as it seemed to do so well. Quote

p8nt4lyfe Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I have a plan...Attack! But seriously, I'd get the Emporium first. Quote
Legodog Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 I agree the best bet is go after the GE first. Speaking of the Emporium... Why does Target have it for $159. $10 over retail. Quote
KPrevost Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 How much would you pay for GE? Also, when will Tower bridge retire? Quote
justafrog Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 How much would you pay for GE? Also, when will Tower bridge retire? You're likely to be paying MSRP if you want it new in box, with the possibility of some perks (freebies and points if ordered through Lego VIP, occasional "buy this get this free or cheap" sales from other retailers, but those are sporadic and a matter of luck). Nobody knows retirement dates exactly except the department at Lego that handles those things, and sometimes they probably change their minds, too. Quote
