You can't post link for YouTube trailer? Since when? And what is the point of that.

I just found some awful news regarding the Rebirth sets. The prices have been increased on some of the sets, but it's at least only in usd from what I can tell.

Now I hope it doesn't change in other places, since the original prices aren't that great in the first place, and if they were even higher I probably would have still gotten the stuff I want, but I'd have to wait for a really nice discount.

76970 $25 -  $28

76972 $35 - $39

76973 $100 - $110

76976 $150 - $160

Sigh 

Well, at least we have an idea of how the tariffs are going to affect the price of LEGO (for now).

I think increased prices are good thing. Now those who really want Jurassic sets day one won't be disappointed. If prices are too high for you. Wait first discount day.

It's not a good thing from any possible angle—whether you love the sets or hate them, whether you plan on getting them day one, with a discount, or never.

It seems that this Jurassic wave is very popular. This way TLG confirms that all hardcore fans get sets they want. Pricing is not that much higher.

The problem is basically that if they cost more at all the opposite of savings will be passed on to you. I can just see the spinosaurus going for 20 bucks less then the whole set, on ebay at least.

At this point we are dealing with over-priced sets that have already had multiple price hikes ontop of them. There was a price hike for transportation costs, price hike for cost of living, price hike for environmental aspects and now a price hike likely due to tarriff rules all while Lego boasts about making its highest revenue. It's insane.

If scalpers think they can make a profit, they'll still buy up as many sets as they can. It won't stop stock issues either, as non-Lego stores will be less incentivised to stock products if they are less likely to sell them. The more expensive sets become the more they move out of the target audiences price range. The increase here add another $28 split over those four sets - which is now the equivilant of buying another 76970: Baby Dinosaur Dolores: Aquilops.

I've dabbled with the aftermarket for the molded Dinosaurs in the past and at times they are almost the cost of the entire set on their own due to them being the main appeal people have for getting most sets. As you mentioned here, the price hike is just going to cost people more and disuade people from buying the sets from Lego - resorting to aftermarket methods.

What are you even talking about. That's just utter nonsense.

He’s Turtle 3.0, spreading turtly nonsense :laugh_hard: I’m amazed he’s managed to avoid the DC thread! …so far.

He's literally the Joker—gets thrown into Arkham Asylum, only to return a few issues later.

This time it's his Iranian ambassador arc.

The only reason the EB police haven’t thrown him into Arkham yet is because his jonkling is currently confined to the JW and Transformers threads. If the madness spreads, they’ll catch him again!!

Tbh, I think you're more swedish than that fella.

All the released sets, do interest me. And I'll try to keep an eye on ok prices for those.

You are complaining this: 160 > 170 for example. What is the whole point. Overpriced how? Compared to Marvel vaste or Star Wars. (Only grey colors and same models year after year).

Price increase making this wave less desirable especially when quality went down such as no painted claws etc.

Depending how good the discount is when Amazon sales go around I might skip this wave.
