They have that special something that most Castle, Space, Pirates etc. sets used to have.

Yes! That's a good way to put it. They have that "je ne sais quoi".

I really liked the Cyber Drone (except the color of the windshield)

Same. If that set had, say, trans-blue windscreens, it would have been 10 times cooler.

31167: Haunted Mansion price is quite high over 100 eurodollars. Still IN-HOUSE theme and one of few LEGO sets that are interesting. 

There is just too much licensed stuff.

It will be cheaper soon in the distributors. I can already see some selling it for 65€ here in France. 

And it's true, too much licenced and display stuff. It's less and less the LEGO I knew and loved : original, playable and creative. 

I'm only buying the classic lego inspired themes. This year I got 2x 10355, 1x 21358 and 1x 21343 (and wolfpack beastmaster from cmf of january).

I will get multiple 31167 and 31168 with good deals in good time and it will be "all" for me in 2025.

Still most distributors sell it over 100 eurodollars. LEGO prices have gone higher each year. Probably even too high.

I am loving the 3-in-1 telephone, the big brick phone reminds me a lot of the old Motorola Dynatac phone (the first commercially available cellphone)

Will definitely be picking that one up for the collection at some point. And probably the 3-in-1 rhino as well (I like the hippo specifically although the others are also good)

I found it in California. They were kind of hidden with the Halloween stuff, not near the other Lego, FYI.

I searched my area in CO, nearby states I will be passing through later this month of UT & ID and no sign of the Haunted House in any of them.  Where I used to live in NY they have lots of LEGO showing as available.  It seems our regional buyer doesn't like to order stock of much LEGO.  Plenty of sets the past few years that we never see in store.  It seems like some of the sets tend to only be stocked in large Metro areas which means we should get them here but we don't.  Online Costco prices unless they make it to deep clearance can't compete with other online retailers or local in store sales due to the included shipping fees in the online prices.  There may be a little hope that we eventually get the Haunted House but as of now they told me it wasn't ordered for our area.  Guess I need to start complaining to Costco corporate about our regional buyers.
