42055 Bucket wheel out of stock, how soon will it be back? if at all?

Hello All

I've been a long time lurker of this site.  I guess this is an across the board question but the only Legos I buy are big Technic sets.  I've finally saved all my pennies and wanted 42055 and its out of stock in the Lego store.  I know its been on the market for awhile,, does this mean its done and it won't come back?  Or should I wait a few more weeks?  I generally buy most of my stuff direct from Lego.  The set was available up to only a few weeks ago.  Then it flipped to out of stock.  

 

Thanks

It may be back, because when a set is retired, it says in gray, “Retired Product” and I do not see it here. Other websites probably still sell it.

Still available from Smyths Toys in the Uk @ £179.99 at a few stores.

I think it's time 42055 got retired. Flagship sets usually have a shelf life of 2.5 years.
