njseale Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 This sale is for kids and sw fans. Lego is telling the investors to suck it. Targeting Kids and SW fans? What are they thinking? Quote
jaisonline Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 This sale is for kids and sw fans. Lego is telling the investors to suck it. Stinks for Star Wars AFOLs also who were looking to save a few dollars. Quote
Pseudoty Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 So how much is everyone going to list revan for on ebay? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Starwars-Exclusive-Minifigure-Darth-Revan-5002123-free-expedited-ship-US-/261447057951?pt=Building_Toys_US&hash=item3cdf75821f Quote
boxofcorey Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Those offers don't help me, I still don't know what I actually want to spend 75$ on. Quote
jaisonline Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Anyone know if the hype for Raven is legit? Was he part off the EU that was erased last week? If so, that could dampen demand. It would be pretty cool regardless if this character is rebooted and ends up in the next film. CHA CHING . Quote
Jeff Mack Posted May 3, 2014 Author Posted May 3, 2014 True but Pre Viszla was just 75% off at the Lego store. Picked up 3 Yes but everyone didn't get this deal, so for other people, this is a good deal. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Lol I have sold the Yoda watches for less than this so called "sale". So TLC has figured out resellers are the main buyers for the UCS / big sets and will buy no matter what. Why discount when ppl still clean up their stocks at MSRP? 1 Quote
legoman12323123 Posted May 3, 2014 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. try 2x skiff + malevolence ... would be a shame if you were a few dollars short and didnt get a raven due to mathematical error. Quote
plasticbrix Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Thanks for the info, all I know is that there was over 200 people reading this thread. Wow!!! Quote
Ed Mack Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Bottom line is that I will be making multiple purchases tonight. It is a BrickPicker rule to buy any set that is discounted 50% or more. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker 1 Quote
BrickLegacy Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Bottom line is that I will be making multiple purchases tonight. It is a BrickPicker rule to click on one of the affiliated links first and buy any set that is discounted 50% or more. 8 Quote
BrickNik Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 This sale is for kids and sw fans. Lego is telling the investors to suck it. I can't wait to "suck it". Boring, maybe. A letdown, okay. Skiffs for 12.50 and Malevolences for 60? Great deals. The Skiff has a very high ceiling for its price point. *gags on TLG* *comes up for air a couple minutes after midnight* Quote
XCool Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 So both Star Wars ship having a rotating cockpit gets 50% discounted. Quote
inversion Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Anyone know if the hype for Raven is legit? Was he part off the EU that was erased last week? If so, that could dampen demand. It would be pretty cool regardless if this character is rebooted and ends up in the next film. CHA CHING . In theory he was, but his universe still has an MMO going on. It would be stupid to abandon the ToR universe because the films are practically unaffected by it, and clearing the accumulated obscure trash was Disney's aim by the erasure to give themselves some freedom for the new films. If EA Games is continuing making ToR games they need a license and I don't see any reason why Disney shouldn't make ToR canon. This is the only part of the SW world besides the main setting that has a wider recognition. Quote
knarrff Posted May 3, 2014 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. It isn't bad, true. But LEGO made that policy. They can just as easily break it. It would be surprised if LEGO would be legally bound or something to adhere to their own policies. So, there was hope. 1 Quote

This is the only part of the SW world besides the main setting that has a wider recognition. Additionally, Darth Revan has a solid following from a generation's worth of fans. Darth Revan's action figures is one of the most expensive wide-release (non-limited) 3.75" action figures to be released in past 15 years and has actually appreciated nicely in the last 2-3 years. The new films will not wipe out existing EU fan favorites, although of course there will be more products to dilute dollars overall. Quote

If they discounted an exclusive for this sale every single retailer would be crying foul (and rightfully so.) Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 try 2x skiff + malevolence ... would be a shame if you were a few dollars short and didnt get a raven due to mathematical error. still 3 cents short ;) Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Im not gonna complain. Remains to be seen how many Malvolence and Desert Skiffs there are in stock. Pre Vizsla isn't a bad set either honestly. I will definitely be purchasing several of each... if I can. Quote
njseale Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 try 2x skiff + malevolence ... would be a shame if you were a few dollars short and didnt get a raven due to mathematical error. Yeah this is what I decided on pretty quickly 50% off plus VIP points plus Darth Revan brings these sets to a total saving of around 60% off. Quote
legopocalypse Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 still 3 cents short No it's not. 2 skiffs @$12.50 each = $25 + malevolence at$60 = $85 which will get you the Darth Revan Quote
spener90 Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 still 3 cents short No it isn't... 12.50+12.50+60=85>75. Quote
njseale Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 still 3 cents short I think you are actually $9.97 over no? Quote
Full Tilt Bricks Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Anyone remember what the code was for the repunzel poly set? I can't remember where I saw that, and if it will still be active during this event. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted May 3, 2014 Posted May 3, 2014 Lol no for some reason I had malevolence as a $100 set Quote
