PC blows it out of the water on amazon, could be a phase (correction, PS sucks lol)

Sales rank

PC 382

PR 779

PS 5117

This is because of TH EOL hype. The hoard are now convinced it'll go EOL this year. I doubt it myself.

 

PS is selling less because peeps have had ages to stock up on it.  I reckon it could be the next Death Star. It's good-looking and can be split in two. Just a guess really.

 

PR is beautiful and has been reviewed very highly here and other places. To say it's unpopular is a foolish ting to say IMO. I, personally rate it as my number 2 best MBS, in front of PS and behind GG.

Imo a building like this would be a real hit, because finally you could build around the corner properly. I wonder why LEGO has not come up with one of these until now.

 

It would be nice if they came up with a Creator 3 in 1 version that is modular size, with this being one of the options.

I guess they didn't build something like that because it looks pretty ugly by itself and needs at least one ore better two other modulars to look good.

An inside corner modular house would be tricky but seems doable. Such a small facade to look at though.

I like inverted corner buildings as a concept but in practical terms, I'm meh.

Like you said, there just isn't much to look at. I just don't think Lego will go for that. There's so much room for a design to show through, and the inverted corner just hides it.

Well, as a new investor, I pulled the trigger on 2 PC's because of double VIP/free shipping. It looks like many of you are pretty pessimistic about this going EOL though; any thoughts as to why the pessimism? I mean- if you were hoping for EOL earlier than now, weren't you being a tad bit optimistic? Right now the set is a little over 2 years old, which is not really that old by now.

 

However within the year, EOL would seem pretty realistic, wouldn't it? It is a nice set, too. Corner piece would seem fairly valuable especially if TLG might have some master plan of building a city block by block with each square block needing 4 corners. Wouldn't it be cool if somewhere in some lab, they have a master plan of a whole city and right now we're just in on the ground floor of the first few blocks?

 

Anyway- good luck to all with this set. It is pretty unique with the Mann's Chinese kind of theme. Definitely stands out compared to the other sets!

^ I subscribe to buying early, but not this early. There arw better sets to pour your money in: xwing, ev, ps, toO...

haha.. the other set I'm plowing my resources into right now is the x-wing... what are EV and PS (I assume toO is tower of Orthanc)
