  1. Destinys Bounty from Ninjago Movie. Unbelievably enjoyable build and when you consider it's only 2/3 price of Silent Mary it's incredible value. The Dragons heads are fantastic.

  3. I am a teacher and my class are studying Space next academic year. I built this to show the children as a hook. Great building experience. A classroom display will follow with the rocket as a centrepiece...

  9. I think that the knockoffs have hurt this set. Also, I think there is general Lego fatigue that has affected the values of many recently retired exclusives. This may not be a popular opinion, but IMO there is nowhere to go but down now. I had 7 or 8 of these and sold some at $1000ish to get down to 3 left. I just sold one for $839 on ebay. I am selling one more at that price and keeping the last one to build some day. I will be happy to get out now before the price drops further.

  10. What an amazing build! Took us around 6 hours. The payoff on Step 236 of the yellow and red modified plate placement in Step 155 absolutely blew my mind. Bag Seven was a work of art. This set is solid gold, my favorite to date.

  11. Finished the castle last night. Really cool set. I dig all the details from the movies. Should make a tidy profit on this pick up. I'll try for $300.

  12. The LEGO Buzz is just over. For years, LEGO couldn't keep up with the required supply, and now that they have the ability to create the necessary supply (for a demand that is no longer there), they can't stop. Add to that the remakes, or even just the threat of the inevitable remake (since nothing is safe), and the counterfeits (even though I don't believe that the serious buyers buy them), there are certainly lots of resellers being scared into selling their inventory early (which inevitably weighs down on performance).

  13. Besides the knockoffs and possibility of remakes, I think the over-saturation angle is the biggest negative for all STAR WARS collectibles. If you told me that 5 years ago, I would have said you were nuts. But how much STAR WARS crap do people need?

  14. The counterfeits have hurt this set disproportionately more then others. If you look at sold listings on eBay for Super Star Destroyer (yes you can search by "lego 10221 USA only" but not sure your average buyer does this) only 1 of the last 12 sold are lego. BL looks like an average of 2 sold new units in the USA per month this year. If you look at direct sales of Sold units of the leading counterfeit brand from the number one selling store the SSD has almost 50% more sales then the next UCS model which is the MF. With over 700 units sold by just the top 3 sellers someone is buying them. You can say that true AFOLs would never buy counterfeits, but what I think it has done to their mindset is decrease the urgency to buy before the set dries up and/or the price gets too high so the sets sits and prices fall. Add to that the overproduction of SW sets and remakes and who would want to drop a grand on one.

  29. YEAH IT WAS. I thought that maybe LEGO Shop at Home had shut down the listing so that their warehouse staff could catch up to the orders. Guess they found a few more cases.

  30. Extremely true - No ones wants to feel the fool. The previous buyers of our high priced sets didn't reach that financially secure point in life, by being foolish. As long as that $1,500 set was in all likelihood going to continue to go up in value, it didn't matter that it was $100 a few years earlier. You also had the eager early buyers, who were looking to be smart, by buying it up for $1,000. All of the reasons that would justify being an eager buyer are gone. Nowadays, no one is left kicking themselves (a few months down the line) after not overpaying earlier. Now, the smart thing to do is just wait - during which time, prices are going down (which actually makes a set seem less appealing), re-releases are happening (which increases uncertainty for a buyer), and that impulsive buyers interests have moved elsewhere.

  31. The majority at 13 (I know weird but I have a lot of faith in the set) and a few at 7ish some at 10 from Kmart online with magic. Also have another 10-14 with an average buy in at 11. I like the set for part out as well.
