silmon Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 There're a lot of unexplored subjects.... How do not think to RMS Titanic or a sport icon like Maracan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studebricker Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I don't see them recreating anything that has religious implications....... maybe they have before and I just missed it?? Well I wasn't sure, but just read that the actual Taj Mahal has passages from the Quran throughout the structure, so I suppose you could say it could have religious implications... or not? But Lego wasn't too worried about replicating the structure in bricks either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottjs Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 There are so many sets I would love to see, a few off the top of my head. Notre Dame Leaning Tower of Pisa Colosseum (In its current state) Mont Saint Michel Sacr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auntiemamel Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 TRU ( although I hate how their prices get jacked up at sale time) has tower bridge at 240. but the second would be at 120. is it worth buying two and putting them away? I am new to this and am trying to purchase those that will give me a good return, even if it takes a few years. Thanx for your input.

Jimmyh70 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Look at the fine print. This hard to find item is excluded from Lego promotions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich B Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Look at the fine print. This hard to find item is excluded from Lego promotions. Yep unfortunately this is true. Most 10XXX sets are excluded from BOGO this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunkers97 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Yes it would be worth it cause your getting them both for the retail price and you're not going to find those just laying around anywhere anymore, plus you will probably be able to make alot of money off of those, they look like great investments.

redeemed763 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Most stores had them for $220 shipped a month or so ago, the sale lasted several weeks, if you don't have one, it'd be smart to have one in your folio but I would hold off on buying extras until a sale is announced. I think the cheapest this one has ever been had for is something like $178 last year on Black Friday. It is a great set for the price and it should do very well once it dies.

CNH1974 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 In theory, this set is going sometime this year. So its good to have one in your portfolio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauromosis Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 -Currently "Call for availability" on Shop at Home. -Two Lego customer service people told me it will be retired soon (which I know can be inaccurate). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legodog Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Very Interesting. I have heard a lot of talk of it retiring soon but you just never know. It can go from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legodog Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I am still able to add 999 of these to my Amazon cart so there is no immediate rush but if it does suddenly go EOL then Amazon will sell out quick. I will be checking daily just in case. Target also still has these in stock online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cflannagan Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 The thing never goes on sale so I guess now is as good of a time as any to pick another up from Amazon just in case. It did went on sale quite few times - lowest being $199 on Black Friday (now that's a price I wish I got it at!), and I got mine at $220 (roughly 9% off). Because of small damage to the box, Amazon refunded $45 to me, making this set cost me only $175. Here's to hoping it goes on sale once again for everyone who still wants one.

Rich B Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I would love for this set to be going EOL now, but I'm sure it will come back into stock soon. Also even if it does get retired now you will have time to get one via Amazon since they have at least 999 in stock, and limit 2 per buyer.

comicblast Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Death Star is OUT OF STOCK on Amazon. Not sure what this means, as it has been out of stock other times, but keeps coming back. Target, Walmart, and LEGO Shop at Home still have it in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markhan Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Currently, you can't buy it on the LEGO website. The Tower Bridge is now listed as "Call to check product availability". But it's still available on Amazon, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabolos80 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 10214 is too tricky to call. It's already over 2 years old, which makes it an anomoly for the exclusive world buildings theme. Also, sets of its prestige traditionally go eol toward the latter half of the year, around october through december. If it stays on shelves till then, it'll be almost three years old. At that point, you might assume it might become another 10188 or 10193... Then you take into consideration rumors of its replacement, the sydney opera house, and everything starts over... Who knows? I won't get one, because it looks like a tedious build, and it's too tough to call for eol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauromosis Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I don't think it will do as well as Taj Mahal but my hunch is that this will at least double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueremains Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Not sure if this really means anything but I might be inclined to take the plunge and pick up a few during 2X VIP this weekend just to be safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redeemed763 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Thats actually not a bad idea, that would yield 960 VIP points, another $20 purchase and you would be at 1000 which would give you $50 back. I don't know how sales tax is in your state but in mine, its only about $4 more to just buy the set from Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
