therodfather Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I definitely want a Viszla and Skiff for my personal collection... any opinions on if Malevolence is worth $60? I know its one of the least popular flagships in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrymc4677 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I UPDATED THE FIRST POST OF THIS THREAD WITH THE MAY THE 4th DEALS!!! http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/9772-may-the-4th-offers-lego-shop-usacan/?p=266510 Why do I hear crickets chirping? In all seriousness, thanks for the info, Jeff. Nothing really stands out, but that was the rumor going in so we can't be too disappointed. Now, who is going to be the first one to try and order 99 desert skiffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekgate502 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 It is not a B Wing, and it is not 15% off an SSD, DS or R2-D2, but I am happy. Makes for a fun trip, and a few sets I didn't have to help my completist collection goal... Not awesome, not that bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its one of the least popular flagships in a while. Walmart cleared these out at the same price during one of their recent clearance events. I didn't buy any then, and won't buy any now either. Buying one won't get you the free promo either, so you will have to throw in another substandard set to get to $75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Mack Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 There are a few quality combinations that can get you some decent sets and a Darth Revan. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legopocalypse Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Curious how the 50% off the desert skiff will affect its value for those that picked it heavily in the mock investing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 This is such a joke. TLG really needs a reminder about the process and logic of discounting. How quickly they forget where they were 10 - 11 years ago barely scraping by. This no discounting rule on exclusives really needs to end. Just my opinion. I know they don't owe us anything. It's just the principle of Mat the Fourth. Sent from an iPhone using the Brickpicker app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddji Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I am a little disappointed. ..considering the deals other regions had. Oh well... will be holding on to my wallet. nothing impressive here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Curious how the 50% off the desert skiff will affect its value for those that picked it heavily in the mock investing game. It will hurt in the short-term, but we'll see as the Summer progresses. At least we know it will go to "Sold Out" status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 The bottom line is 50% off a set is 50% off a set. It's a good deal. Build it or save it as a gift. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njseale Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I don't think it is that bad. I don't know why a lot of people thought they would discount an exclusive when there policy is no discounting exclusives. 3 Sets at 50% off is a nice promotion for LEGO fans. Malevolence + Skiff + ? to get the order over $75. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 The skiff, which a lot of people probably got a good amount of at $17 or so, is still going to be a winner and a fine set. Yes, $12.50 is better than $17, yes, it will hurt in the short term, but also this will actually signal the end of the set. But there's no way it doesn't end up at $50 or more in a reasonable amount of time. Most people seem pretty high on the Pre-Viz set, so half off seems solid, and $60 for a large ship that is also more or less officially on its way out also doesn't seem bad. I mean, I agree that it's a little lame that this has basically become an excuse to clear out old sets, but hey, they don't have to do anything at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcandre Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 This sale is for kids and sw fans. Lego is telling the investors to suck it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Mack Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 The affiliate links don't work for me. Do they go live later tonight? They are working fine in the web browser. I have no idea why they are not working in the forum app. These are the links they give for their products. I will see what I can find. No links for the watches? I may wind up getting one of those for my son. It takes time to search and grab each of these. I was concentrating on the sets for now. Just click any link, all you need to do is click any of the Lego links and its good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
