I saw one (half empty) box In Tesco on my weekly visit. The following week, nothing.

Awesome You’re very welcome

GREAT. Then I’m happy. Enjoy

Did this for Series 20 and frankly I was disappointed with the response I got. (I thought it would be appreciated, but no one even seemed to notice haha) ...but here I am again. I have to do this to speed up my own process of breaking down boxes and having gone to so much effort it seems selfish not to share. Even if it only helps one of you find that fig you’re looking for on a shop shelf then it’s worth sharing. I’m in the UK and every box I received follows the same pattern. Thanks, Nath

I work in payments, I have PP contacts and when this happened to me a while back I fixed it. It was quite a simple error that wasn’t difficult to address and completely unnecessary. No one should have to do this again going forward. A real pain for anyone to have to call in and auth again. Especially if you have an AMEX as LEGO don’t accept and PP do. My razor crests arrived the other day without issue having pre auth’d with PP a very long time ago.

I’ve picked up two since launch @ £480 & £500. I think that says it all... Just sold mine for £500 and EBay is slowly starting to flood with them so the price is coming down and down. I hope the rumour is true because I’ve only sold my current one in order to pick up a couple of the remakes when released, I otherwise would’ve kept it. Fingers crossed!

You’re welcome. I am VERY confident it will be. (May alter by region?) There are too many OBVIOUS patterns for it to be coincidental, and it matches exactly with what I had been told prior to purchase. Three knights in the middle column, three vikings along the front

Birds eye view of the Series 20 Retail Box Distribution. Some VERY interesting placements...

Didn't glue mine and constructed the 'stand' out of LEGO. The falcon REALLY lends itself to being mounted VERY easily.

..........do I swap out my 10179 for my 75192? I think so! ?

Your first comment is fair in my opinion too, but quite an unquantifiable risk for them with hard numbers to the contrary, no matter what the sales figures for far smaller SW sets looks like at present. it's no coincidence that LEGO continue to chose to produce playsets. The ghostbusters HQ is a playset with a far lower price/piece. We all know both SW & (actual/adult)UCS sets cost considerably more. The Ghostbusters HQ was a relative bargain by comparison. Please share your source for the HQ's successful sales performance. The SSD did not sell well either, which is the next most appropriately comparable set.

I agree it is just a matter of time before they start selling another 'UCS' MF. The sad truth is however that a new MF will be $650 minimum. They struggled to sell the MF the last time around because the price was so high. They sat around on shelves for a very long time. I'm not sure they will take the risk again. i do not believe LEGO will have the confidence to sell something at that price for many years to come yet. It will likely be far smaller. Those of you that think it will be as big and impressive as the original, but stronger, better made, AND have an interior etc, for the same price, are just dreaming haha

Does it include the UCS MF? ;)

yes you are. My posts are opinion, as are yours, his, and everyone else's. :) only haha thanks for your help
