No More Monkeys Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yes perhaps a 6-8 year time frame to reach that elevated of a price tag. It is the largest modular to date after all. ;-) I thought Death Star was the largest modular 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedsausage Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I thought Death Star was the largest modular I just started building it. I see where you're going with that. If you wedge a DS between a Parisian Restaurant and a Palace Cinema, it somehow works. I believe he is referring to all the little rooms you build in the Death Star... I think.

Ed Mack Posted October 23, 2014 Author Share Posted October 23, 2014 Look at it this way. If the set remains out of stock and retires , it will be the shortest run of any Modular. It is the largest Modular. It will be the least owned Modular since the Green Grocer...by a large amount. People just didn't pay attention until it was too late. To say the set is boring or unappealing is unfair. There are a lot of people trying to make themselves feel better because they missed out and spent their money on Exo Suits and Campers. This is a beautiful set and will be wanted by many future Modular fans who didn't get the opportunity to buy one now to complete their collection. The Cafe Corner took years to get to its current level and so will the Town Hall. But people should remember not everyone loved the gaudy Cafe Corner and look how that has worked out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you missed out on TH, you could probably use ToO as TH replacement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cross Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 That's the inherent investment beauty of the modular line- there is just something about having a COMPLETE set that is so rewarding and appealing. Honestly, TLG could produce a Christian Science Reading Room mod and some OCD fans (myself certainly included) would make sure to have one, on display, with all the others.

Lol, you don't think that would do well? I would put it right next to my Morgue and Animal testing lab, across the street from my Modular Slaughterhouse. And of course its all built on a Lego Indian Burial ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbaker1974 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 I have 2 of these on a backorder from a few days ago that Customer Service created from an order where they shorted me 2. I've got my doubts if I will ever get them though, even with these extras popping back up in stock. I'm suspicious that the Target backorder system won't debit those from stock as they come in...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Backorder date out to Nov 18th in EU / Asia... If only we know how big the production run would be to fulfill those backorders. Since we can still backorder 5 in the UK and it's not been around long, I have a feeling this set is far from done. Every backorder I've placed so far has been honoured including 5x HH earlier this month. As we know, Lego are now full of surprises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM123 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Does anyone know if / how Lego compensates if your promo is cancelled? Just ordered another TH but now I see that my promo is cancelled..
