ARCHIVE - LEGO Forums (2009-2017)

I've been wanting the Palace Cinema for my Modular row, so figured 3x VIP, free holiday set, and the added sticker was a pretty decent deal. I don't think we'll see any "buy palace cinema, get this set free" deal, so I think it's the best deal you're looking at.

And Lego has no dog in the Console War fight. They like their games released on multiple platforms to maximize profits.

I've got two trains that run on 9V (I believe... Not at home to check) that I would be willing to part with since I've decided to stick strictly to power functions. Let me know if interested and ill post the set #s. I even have 6 boxes of curved 9V track (might have traded them off you originally lol

This is just theft. Have to disagree, this is more like taking advantage of an error not commited by us. On the other hand, people whom buy up all the stocks when ever there are clearances and resell for profits, now that is theft against the people! Knowing something is not supposed to be sold at ...

Same sets as last year but they changed them up slightly. Thanks TLG for saving me some money this Christmas. I'll pass.

I'm kind of getting a little worried with all the re-hashes of sets from not very long ago.... What happened to their originality?

I sticker everything. I would never get back to doing it if I didn't do it on the initial build. The sets look better with them. I have enough pieces where I don't think it would ever be an issue of needing a part with a sticker already on it. If so, I would probably just buy the needed piece if nee...

Missed this past week's set, and wanting to trade to get it. Have lots of sets, polybags, and CMF to trade for it. PM me if you have one for trade, and I'm sure I can find something you want for it.

People are blowing this waaay out of proportion... The exclusion is on exclusives only... We're talking about not even 5% of the items they sell, and people are going nuts. Plus it's not like there were many sales on these particular sets to begin with... Are you REALLY that upset over losing out sa...

Looks like the only set I'll be picking up in this wave is the dragon.

Personally, I don't like the policy as a customer, since I loved to finally pull the trigger on a decent discount when spending that much on a set. But it was also frustrating because you could miss that 2 hour Amazon sale, or have it sold out in minutes because Resellers bought 10 at a time. My wif...

Interesting thoughts C&T, I have had some that are in the same school of thought. To add on to your reasoning... Think of TRU.. they mark up prices, why? Because their main target audience is the 'average buyer' who just wants to pick up a quick toy for their child/gift/etc., not the collectors....

interesting discussion. however, does this take into account the majority of collectors buy sets that are on clearance for 25-70% off? or is it based on MSRP to inflate itself? I think this is the way most hobby sellers start, however, those who become profitable realize this is a bad strategy beca...

LOL, great 'sale' TRU... 79105 Baxter's Robot 30% off @ $39.19? Only with TRU's painfully bad marketing/price changes. MSRP = $39.99. Double VIP worth more than $.80.

I was hoping Lego would use this opportunity in the CMF line to introduce a "baby" minifig... doesn't look like it's gonna happen though :(

Yea, I've noticed this happening more and more often myself too. Especially with cheese slopes.

Wow.... these look... terrible. It looks like TLG completely stumbled and lost it's originality. 70723 - Looks like it's a smaller version of the Ultra Sonic Raider accompanied by an equally weak version of the Fire Mech, with a homage to SW battle packs and their random cannons/guns. 70722 - It's a...

Be careful, sounds like it could be a drop shipper.... Someone using someone else's stolen cc to make the order and ships it directly to the buyer, which can get you banned from ordering at shop at home once the cc holder disputes the charge. Check the name / address on the order. See if it matches ...

Slick Deals Strikes again. Yay for idiots who steal info and post it on their site only to have the discount ruined.

This line is no longer available which is why the sets are so expensive on the secondary market.
