mahler24 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I used my wifes account and she had them shipped to her parents........5 was allowed 1 hour ago...?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Thanks OP but, it's a shame that quantity is limited and postage to the UK making it not really worthwhile I'd have happily bought 100 and flipped the lot. Brickset's Amazon price list is one of my home pages that I check several times a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Yes, about one hour ago my wife could select as much as 9. But when she wanted to pay they put it back to 3. Shame! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Any other movie sets on sale on amazon.it? Thanks for the tip Mahler! You saw it faster than I did. I was out for lunch when this opportunity came up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legone Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 This is how I could add to cart 100 Cloud Cuckoo Palaces on amazon.it: - Add 1 (or 3) to cart - View cart - Change the quantity, select "More than 10" - After that you can type in the quantity But I haven't tried to check out, so I'm not sure if it allows you to make the purchase.

Ciglione Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 My wife had 9 in the cart. But at checkout they changed it to max 3. If we were earlier we could have ordered more probably. But they put a maximum when they saw someone from the US ordering 100 Cuckoo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legone Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Hahaha not me, signore Ciglione. I bought 500, not 100 (j/k) Seriously, I did buy one from Walmart today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 And this is exactly why I made sure to pick up all the smalls first and anything else I could before the movie premiered. Now still being so early in the year coupled with the insanely huge popularity for all things related to the film, I would think (hope) any of these sets return back to store shelves; just perhaps not long enough to touch a slight sale. Even Castle Cavalry may sell out one of these shopping trips. Zombies wasn't popular until it was gone.Zombies was gone because it was popular, or were you referring to its secondary market worth that made investors take notice? I would've thought just the name alone getting people's attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskers1236 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I found a couple more of these at a Target yesterday. They weren't there before, so they must either found them or they were a return. Have a nice stash of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I have four of these cuckoo's now. Will it be a good investment or flipping material? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcandre Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I have four of these cuckoo's now. Will it be a good investment or flipping material? Who knows, all depends on legos production. You can make around $10 flipping or parting now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpj8 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I saw a couple at a random target today, so they are still out there. It's sold out most places though. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4cs Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 I stopped by several Targets, Wal marts, kmarts, meijers and TRU this week in my area and I am surprised how many planograms are missing the labels for the sets. At Target, this usually means they are done (at least until the aisle resets). I pick them up whenever I see them. I've got boys and girls and they both love the set.

glenbart Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I have a funny feeling these cheaper movie sets will not be around for long. I dunno why. Because nobody wants them. Pick-a-brick would be a better investment than these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 Once I set up checking account and a PayPal I'll have to start looking for internet deals on this. I'm trying to avoid the current deals so that I won't kick myself for not buying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holleman67 Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Funny that I bought some bw $13-$16 and sold them for $32 or so....but no one wants them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapotato Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 My Target had the barest LEGO section for the longest time, and then they finally started retagging the shelves and they put CCP tag back on. Today I went in and they had finally restocked - but no CCP. Not even the tag. Maybe it's gone in my city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akohns Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 These aren't gone at all. Targets restocking all the time. Returned 6 of them tonight. Ended up buying 3 for $15.99 in the same store because they were an instant substitue for something else that was out of stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lego Collector 777 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 With the set being sold out in most stores , but with stores prehaps restocking it does it have a great investment potential in the future? any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imirish11 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I think this hinges on whether Unikitty is released in the next wave of Lego Movie sets, and if so, the price of that set....is this known information? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iahawks550 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 That set can be found all over in my area of the country. I've never even took a second look at it. Might be a good Christmas seller, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakyboy Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 2x Kitties on the way. Angry in Construction Mech and Astro in Benny's Spaceship set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mos_Eisley Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 But those are more expensive sets and different Kitties so they will not have any impact on the CCP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lego Collector 777 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 true but I was thinking maybe the "normal" version" will be a little bit good in value in the after market? Maybe it will not do greatly in value but maybe pretty good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
