tractorboy Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 There is nothing to back it up (on retirement) but the Toys ****** Bricks website headline says this: 10211 Grand Emporium Officially Sold Out & Retired Except it's not actually officially retired... Quote
biniou Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I do have a problem with words "officially" and "retired" put in the same sentence, because this statement is not true. It's still available right now in EU by the way. Quote
cladner Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 36R4 from shop at home ordered last week. Quote
synd2k2 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Got 1 in from Walmart today, ordered 10/6. Date code: 36R4. Box arrived with a Fedex label slapped onto it. Thankfully it wasn't too beat it up but it's amazing Walmart will just ship them out like that. Quote
ChristopherJB Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 Some of you should know by now to buy these in pairs when getting them from Walmart. Their business protocol is to slap stickers and stomp on the boxes before shipping out. I got my two AA in perfectly mint shape shipped via lego's box. Quote
JRandall Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Back in stock at Walmart, I was able to put over 1000 in my cart. Quote

trekgate502 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I called Walmart the person told me if they can be trusted that it is out of stock and should not be offering to order it. 1 Quote
Young_Gun21 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 You can add to cart but no shipping options. This is strange. Quote

Bold-Arrow Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 You can add to cart but no shipping options. This is strange. that means it is OOS Quote
GhostDad Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 that means it is OOS Yep. I've run into that in the past. Wal-Mart has roundabout ways of saying "We don't actually have any of these"... Quote
CNH1974 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Just ordered my last one from UK LEGO Shop at Home. Still available with a limit of 5. Next purchase will be a second Maersk Ship. I suspect this set will only last a year. Modularwise I'll move onto the Pet Shop. Quote
biking_tiger Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 Just ordered 2 at Wal-Mart. Not sure if they'll ship or in what condition, but they're there. And now they're not. ??? Quote
biking_tiger Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 It's popped in and out of stock three times in the last 24 hours. Not sure why or if it's a glitch... Quote
M4x18 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 EU LEGO Shop at Home back up. GE OOS with estimated ship date of Oct 30th Quote
rich79 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I just ordered one a few seconds before the status went to Oct 30. I hope it comes this week and not that a have to wait. Quote
supergman Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Not sure if this has been posted, but it's not in the catalog that just came in the mail yesterday. Only four modulars were in there, which imo isn't much of anything... Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 It's because while this forum goes Ape you know what over modulars they aren't the bread and butter for lego. Modulars are cool but not nearly as cool as everyone here thinks. Lego makes tons more money in other themes. Quote
trekgate502 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 On the GE, just because people say it doesn't make it so but in addition to Toys ****** Bricks calling it retired, the Brick Blogger is now saying it is retired. Sounds like it should get the tag by January as a wild guess. One can hope. Quote
holleman67 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I've been saying that before it was cool 2 Quote
No More Monkeys Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 I've been saying that before it was cool in 2012 ? LOL Quote
