lsfrorex Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 I was trying to purchase this set but it is no longer listed in Lego.com. Did they stop selling it already? Quote
stackables Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 I noticed that too. I thought the set would last close to halloween. Guess not. Quote
dschooley Posted September 22, 2012 Posted September 22, 2012 Wow, that was fast. I am glad I picked mine up already. Quote
lsfrorex Posted September 23, 2012 Author Posted September 23, 2012 I found some in the Lego store. Apparently they just got these in stock this week. Quote
Brick625 Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 Went to 2 stores today - both stores had plenty 850487 sets(over 10 on the shelf) Quote
Ed Mack Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Just wanted to bring this set to member's attention. This set has a very similar Zombie to the 8683-5 Zombie, plus it has a whole bunch of other cool parts and a couple of other minifigures. Makes for a nice Monster Fighters add on pack. Plus the set is still available from LEGO S@H and it's current value is almost $9 more than MSRP... Check it out... Quote
stackables Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 I only bought one of these sets for on black Friday. Contemplating picking up another. Big zombie fan :) Quote
Talon Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 I agree, it is a great little set. It doesn't have the Monster Fighter's label on it so it may have a different lifetime than the Monster Fighter sets. Not sure if that means longer or shorter but I like the set enough I don't care much about how long it lasts. Hopefully Lego will come out with a few more like it. Quote
agp548 Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 i also bought two of these. awesome little set. and i love zombies too lol Quote
Rich B Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 This is a great set that I wanted to pick up back around Halloween but never did because I figured they weren't around still, I'll definitely be picking a couple up now, thanks for the heads up Ed!! Quote
Ed Mack Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Just a reminder to pick this set up before it disappears. It's like a Monster Fighters 1A set! Quote
aspen Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Surprised at what these are selling for on Ebay - around $25 each. You can buy them as I did on lego.com for $14.99. I guess I don't understand why buyers are willing to pay the higher price on ebay. Even Amazon wants $25. Is this set something we should buy multiples of? Quote
hollywdbri Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Most likely international customers. Lego are not as easy to come by at the same prices. Quote

I wondered the exact same thing yesterday...so I bought five. Should have waited a few days for free shipping Quote
Grolim Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 Most likely international customers. Lego are not as easy to come by at the same prices. Definitely this. Lego S@H prices for people overseas do not accurately reflect current exchange rates. Sometimes it is cheaper to buy from someone in the US who has bought items from S@H and added their own markup than it is to buy direct from S@H internationally. Quote
