legone Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Is that CQG IC there I see running? I have no idea. Not really my setup. Got it from the internet and replaced the CNBC news screen with Lego video, a couple of other screens with TRU and AMZ homepages :) 1 Quote
Alcarin Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I bought 2 (was no limit) in Austria Vienna SCS LEGO store today, they had 3 (or 4 left) had no Institutes and the mark on all Exo Suits was 24S4 if that helps at all? Quote
anon33 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Thanks! Since I only have 2 and this item, and for now is hard to get, I am going to hold. Thanks for answering a noob!Assuming you sold for 70 at ebay you would make between 10 to 12 bucks... take out 15% in fees and assuming $10 to ship... Profit assumes one does not have a business...

ericb Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Good to hear that this will be available again, hopefully with enough so that those who want one or ten can buy at RRP. 1 Quote
Hansomebricks Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Oh I just bought four of them too. Hopefully I can quick flip before they come back at LegoShop. Quote

No More Monkeys Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I like how the Exo was holding up a Mini Mini in the picture. Another iteration of that would be 10 Exos tearing apart Big Mini 1 Quote
Migration Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Another iteration of that would be 10 Exos tearing apart Big Mini And if that article is correct we could all get enough Exos to do just that Quote
marcandre Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Why is everyone happy about this article? It's going to kill the resale value if true. Quote

Migration Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Why is everyone happy about this article? It's going to kill the resale value if true. No, it will kill the quick flip value, it should still be solid EOL. 1 Quote
holleman67 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 No, it will kill the quick flip value, it should still be solid EOL. Where is the instant gratification to that? Quote

marcandre Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 People are happy that can get some then quickly become "upset" that others can too. Nature of the beast urmmmm game . I'm not happy or unhappy about anyone missing out. I'm not feeling bad for anyone that missed out either. There was plenty of opportunities to get one at LEGO Shop at Home or even stock up via target. More runs just mean longer wait, money tied up longer, and the possibility it goes Delorean. Quote

It will be interesting too how many are made available in the next couple of months . Quote
Jojoyojimbi Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 someone at lego saw the glut of oversold orders and said FIRE UP THE MOLDS, we need another 23097 Exo suits, and then someone said go ahead and make it an extra 30k, we'll get some extras, this is going to drive the secondary market into a second frenzy and i think there'll be an initial drop, and then a rebound in price as a LOT of these will be opened up for play thinking that there will be continual runs. I don't think there will be more than 1 or 2 runs and I think the original run was probably 30-50k, doubt very highly there will be more than 200k of these before they're EOLd and at least a third are opened *all numbers are pulled from my ass except my feeling that 200k is the ceiling Quote

stephen_rockefeller Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 My initial reaction is probably correct. The designer put that garbage out on reddit and it spread like wild fire. I thought it was especially hilarious that he went out of his way to say it definitely wasn't a marketing ploy. If you have to say that then it more than likely is. Oh well regardless it's a cool little set. Quote
ericb Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 There was plenty of opportunities to get one at LEGO Shop at Home or even stock up via target. Yes, plenty of opportunities for someone like yourself. Most people can't watch retailer sites like a hawk or schedule their lives around planned LEGO purchases. 2 Quote

Most people can't watch retailer sites like a hawk or schedule their lives around planned LEGO purchases. Someone like myself? What is that supposed to mean? I set up alerts it's not hard. It was available the entire day on LEGO Shop at Home. If you want to cry about it do it somewhere else. This whole site is based on opportune buying and reselling. 2 Quote
holleman67 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Yes, plenty of opportunities for someone like yourself. Most people can't watch retailer sites like a hawk or schedule their lives around planned LEGO purchases. I don't do anything you mentioned and I got a handful. 2 Quote
Pseudoty Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I don't do anything you mentioned and I got a handful. I did everything he mentioned. That allowed me to already flip these and still have plenty more on the way 2 Quote
