wow...the Mario theme is getting huge.
If they are going to make electronic figures for all the main characters we are only a fraction of the way there.
...and yet I have not seen a single example of kids playing w/ any of these sets let alone mention them (and I am in the age 7-10 group circles).
Either LEGO paid a ton for the IP and NEEDS to make it work...or all these sets are being hoarded somewhere.
And the big miss is LEGO not jumping into Mario Kart which is the actual relevant and popular component for kids.
From what I've gleaned, Amazon and a number of other grocery chains are embracing dark stores, that offer no physical shopping, only online pickup and delivery. https://www.forbes.com/sites/bryanpearson/2022/02/03/the-dark-stores-in-retails-future-prepare-to-be-ghosted/?sh=70d280ad3c4a
Another nice cl score. Got him down to $380. He had a lot of offers on individual sets but wanted to move the whole lot. Picked up last night. Pulled the haunted house for myself & listed the rest for $380. Just accepted an offer of $360, they are driving 90 minutes to pickup.
Could have done a bit better but an easy hh for $20, cant beat that.
