These Mando sets have been real popular, I can't believe how much people were paying for the Razor Crest right before Christmas. I would have bought two HasLab Razor Crest if I knew it would be that popular, I guess leave it to disney.If anyone is looking for the Trouble on Tatooine / cheap Mandalorian set, it’s in stock at Best Buy -

snagged one the other day for 16 bucks, planning to sell the minifigs
Nice! I haven't seen it lower than $18.85 (the price I paid). I also got the Star Wars one for $23.snagged one the other day for 16 bucks, planning to sell the minifigs
Guilty as well ... always wanted it but was hard to justify, felt like a now or never sort of thing when it popped back up today. Fingers crossed that all the sets released in the next 6 months will be awful for the sake of my walletWhelp, I just ordered an Assembly Square off Amazon. Wish it was on S@H so I could get the skating rink but who knows when it shows up there again.
I didn't think it was uncommon. Both Walmart ad Amazon had it in stock until at least December 29th. I was hoping LEGO would bring it back in stock and at least get a few set with it.Guilty as well ... always wanted it but was hard to justify, felt like a now or never sort of thing when it popped back up today.

I’ve seen a couple posts on Reddit from people saying their LEGO stores told them it wouldn’t be restocked again ... but who knows, it came out in 2017 so it might come back one more time but probably gone by the end of 2021 if not before.I didn't think it was uncommon.

Lego stores do have signs saying 'last chance' but I still feel like Walmart / Amazon will get more in stock. Not based on anything at all.I’ve seen a couple posts on Reddit from people saying their LEGO stores told them it wouldn’t be restocked again ... but who knows, it came out in 2017 so it might come back one more time but probably gone by the end of 2021 if not before.
It's orderable on S@H now if you want to get it there and cancel the Amazon order.Lego stores do have signs saying 'last chance' but I still feel like Walmart / Amazon will get more in stock. Not based on anything at all.
But just in case I also bought it. Why not blow $500 on LEGO in the last two days....
Thanks for the heads up. I got another skating rink which is great. Still wish they had the teal car. My Amazon order only had $5 left on a gift card.It's orderable on S@H now if you want to get it there and cancel the Amazon order.
Little annoyed Amazon pushed my delivery date back, but I think I'm sticking there since I used some gift cards I had on hand from Christmas.
The Diner is retired. That was on the rumour list before the pandemic changed some things around. They don't retire in order. In 2018 The Bank and Detective Office both retired at the same time. The Parisian Restaurant was older than both and retired in 2019. The Town Hall retired years before the Pet Shop.Oddly I just bought Assembly Square at my local store and got a dented one for 50 bucks in credit. They had 2 or 3 available but also said they have not been told it's retired. I also learned Downtown Diner looks to be retired which is odd since it came out after Assembly Square. Stores seem to be getting decent stock in states that allow them to be open though they are certainly lower than normal conditions. I can say personally I don't think I'm going back to a mall for another 10 months if I can help it though.
Good to know order of release doesn't impact retiring so thanks. For some reason thought they would.The Diner is retired. That was on the rumour list before the pandemic changed some things around.

Here is The Brick Fan picture that leads me to believe it's not retired (which clearly it's not, it's back in stock) just won't be carried in stores anymore, takes up too much room.
Also look how bad that box is. What did they do to the corners? :lol:
Because that would make sense, but it's LEGO, they still have a website that doesn't function at times so logic isn't their strong point.Good to know order of release doesn't impact retiring so thanks. For some reason thought they would.
Pretty sure that's not consistent. There's lots of stuff that's sold out that came back in stock.Even more sets are in stock which is nice and I was proven right. "Temp out of stock" means it is still being made and 'sold out' means it's retired. The amount of AFOLs who didn't get that was amazing.
Like what?Pretty sure that's not consistent. There's lots of stuff that's sold out that came back in stock.
That's awesome. But couldn't you just buy a modular for <$200 and make it look apocalyptic? $220 for a rip off of a set that was $170 three months ago seems way high.Have you guys seen these GoshFun sets on Amazon ... it’s like LEGO meets Fallout or Last of Us. They ripped off modular designs and made them look post apocalyptic. I’d buy one but they’re kind of pricey to take a gamble on at $219 a pop.

Aren't you contradicting yourself here? You were saying sold out means retired, then sold out might not be retired. I was saying there's been sets marked sold out that's come back in stock, which jives with your reply.SO used to mean LEGO didn't know when it be back, or it be months from now.
You are clearly selectively reading what I wrote. PREPANDEMIC 'sold out' meant something different than it does now. What sets said sold out on their product page and came back in stock?Aren't you contradicting yourself here? You were saying sold out means retired, then sold out might not be retired.

Some of the exclusive sets like Winter Village did. I want to say the Ferris Wheel also. Probably the Apollo Saturn V, the Exo Suit...You are clearly selectively reading what I wrote.

I forgot to cancel my Amazon order after placing the LEGO one and Amazon changed my delivery date from Feb 26th to January 16th.It's orderable on S@H now if you want to get it there and cancel the Amazon order.

Huh. Mine was originally supposed to arrive January 16th and it's currently saying February 8th.I forgot to cancel my Amazon order after placing the LEGO one and Amazon changed my delivery date from Feb 26th to January 16th.
Wow. That's insane. I wasn't going to cancel my Amazon one until the LEGO one shipped.Huh. Mine was originally supposed to arrive January 16th and it's currently saying February 8th.
I do have Prime.Wow. That's insane. I wasn't going to cancel my Amazon one until the LEGO one shipped.
Do you have Amazon Prime?
Oh it's probably the gift cards. If you change your order payment Amazon does weird things. So you probably got moved to the back of the list. However it was in stock yesterday so who the hell knows. Amazon in the middle of a pandemic got rid of the Pantry so who knows what Amazon is doing.I do have Prime.
It's not that big a deal, just really weird. I did apply a gift card after I ordered it so I don't know if that affected it.
My plan was to wait to make sure Lego actually had it in stock, they like canceling things or taking both and returning the worst box to Amazon. But Amazon has been a bit of a pain with bigger things.Yeah, mine jumped up to delivery this Saturday ... which isn’t great for budgeting ... but what the hell, why not . Ironically it’s easier to return a bigger LEGO set to Amazon than LEGO in my experience, but I’m 95% sure I’ll be keeping this one (I semi regret selling the Bank, the Theater and a beat up box Cafe Corner!?! In the past).
nice! i keep checking because i wanted the SW one but wasn't willing to pay anything close to retailNice! I haven't seen it lower than $18.85 (the price I paid). I also got the Star Wars one for $23.
Funny as soon as I said that AWD had a HP Advent for $16.05 so I bought it. For tha price why not get a second one.nice! i keep checking because i wanted the SW one but wasn't willing to pay anything close to retail
if this happens to you again just skip the buttons and just below type "i want to chat with an associate" - you'll go straight to a human being. make sure you say "chat" or the bot will offer a phone call.Just used the stupid Amazon chatbot to try to ask a question about it and that said it's being packed now and wouldn't put me in contact with an actual human. So maybe they just haven't updated the delivery date yet. I don't really feel like waiting for someone on the phone so that's the end of that line of discovery.
nice, glad you were able to snag that. i love the minifigs in the SW advent calendars but find the mini builds to be meh (so this year's city advent calendar wasn't a hit - all mini builds). in the good old days i could always snag a crushed and battered one for half-off after xmas in the warehouse but pickings have been slim this year.Funny as soon as I said that AWD had a HP Advent for $16.05 so I bought it.

Keep looking for the Star Wars one. My limit is $1 a day for SW ($24 or less), maybe even check Walmart if you are brave enough to go into one, the other ones I have never paid less than 50% off.
I was just curious if anyone tried it with LEGO because they weigh more than model planes.I’m sure you can hang them similarly like model airplanes, I saw some guy on you show off his collection and he had several ships hanging.
The Goshfun Chinese Restaurant caught my eye -- $99 for a 1326 piece modular doesn't seem bad. But the picture is of a computer model -- that's a warning sign -- and the only reviews left no text.Have you guys seen these GoshFun sets on Amazon ... it’s like LEGO meets Fallout or Last of Us.

There is a rumour of a Marvel series in August so you never know. But if we ever did it would probably be 16 figures and 6 of them will be a version of Luke.I’d love to see a LEGO Star Wars minifigure series tied to that certain show ... Star Wars has never had a minifigure series right? Probably because they know AFOLs will buy super expensive sets to get one obscure SW minifig.
Found the video, he has some pretty big sets hanging.I was just curious if anyone tried it with LEGO because they weigh more than model planes.
A Star Wars list came out, there seems to be a lot of a certain show people like and an 800 Euro ATAT!
Oh I already know it's going to win. So no big deal, it's not like I hate Classic Space. I have almost all the modern City Space Port sets. What pisses me off is that there are already have been sets in a way, we got new Classic Space minifigures battle pack, the green minifigures with the Exo-Suit. I'd be upset if Pirates, or Town win too, or even Castle as we have the Idea set and a Creator set coming out with those themes. It's why I wish they would just make the top three or 5 into sets as they have to know there is a demand for Classic Space.I grew up on the Classic Space sets, so that got my vote. Sorry GG.
But aren't the Creator cars in a way Model Team?Bring back Model Team! I remember drooling over those sets at the back of the old catalogs but could never afford any of them
