  1. Thanks for the tips, was interesting to see the interview March next year say the rumours (except the test run in UK now)..
  2. I am not talking about these ones (they will for sure pop up in a couple of months): But these ones that are only a limited release in UK now, but apparently not a wide release before next year?
  3. I am sure a lot of kids and even a few adults just buy blind boxes so even if the most popular figs are bought with scanning the rest will be sold eventually as well. In addition even if 2-3 figs are most expensive on the after-marked it do not mean that every customer are hoping to get them when buying figs..
  4. I wonder if the new crocogators will show up on PAB this year or next then
  5. Do BAM figures have any official builds?! It is basically minifig-parts that go more or less well together released at the same time
  6. As long as we get a new animal or two in the January wave I am happy
  7. Police and fire for 15 of them I guess
  8. That would be funny, so we could get a goat for 1/10th of the cost of the PAB one
  9. Depends on what themes that show up, if we get a City farm, JP T-rex set etc it is probably there. I also expect they will make a goat kid mould one day. If not before they will definitely include it before the 5 year deadline so they do not end up with the same issue as last time

  11. I agree, most people shopping on BL I guess know if the parts are cheaper on PAB, so it really only make sense for BL sellers to stock up on parts they hope will be more expensive in the future when they disappear from PAB.. A lot of other sellers do the same so that will help the prices stay down as well..
  12. I can not stand him and believe I have only ever watched one of his YouTube videos and that was enough for me. Even If he claims to take credit for those things it is not necessarily his merit that those sets came out. However the best weapon against an enemy is another enemy so if he can help by all means release the hounds
  13. It might go down some, because I and a lot of other people are sending polite mails to Lego saying this is not OK. However I am pretty sure it will not go down to the price of the sheep where it belong
  14. It actually went down a little bit not long after release also after I and I am sure a lot of other people said it was way to high priced. So I am sure it helps to say that this is not OK prices on animals these days in a polite way to CS and of course vote with our wallets.. I got the chance to buy the City Jungle sets at a very good price a couple of weeks ago and got one of each. However starting to regret I did not bought more at least of the gorilla set and kept the animals and tried to sell the sets for the same price, because they might be crazy high on PAB When it is a rather small set with several animals like that it is probably better to buy it on discount to get them. However MTS is a D2C with only a lone goat and than that method do not work, if the set had all the animals it was supposed to on the other hand
  15. It it 1 hot air balloon or a carousel with "hot air balloons"?
  16. I recommend everyone that is disappointed to write a polite mail to Lego CS and say what you feel about the price of the goat. If they do not get any feedback they might think this a fair price for their products They could just put a maximum number per order e.g 20 like they have done before.. $2-2,5 would have been a fair price..
  17. Shame on Lego for that price
  18. I agree, around the sheep is fine any more and its shame on Lego Can you not just cancel the hole order?
  19. They have done that before and I do not understand why they don't do it every time. Is should be easy to predict 4 out of 5 bestseller parts and just move them to bestseller from the get go Lego did a mistake and they probably still earned money on it with that price so the few lucky ducks that got it "on sale" could have gotten their orders I think.. Will be interesting to see the price, if it is more than around the sheep price Lego is taking advantage of their fans..
  20. To increase the hype of the goat, as a publicity stunt since it say goats are for sale in the set, etc who knows how the PR people think There is a lot of buzz now about the goat and that is good advertising to sell more PAB parts, they still probably earn money on it even with that price. It is suspicious at least, for all the parts added to PAB in the last couple of years I believe only 3-4 have had a wrong (to cheap) price I fear it may be 10x the price when it comes back
  21. Dreamzzz have a lot of interesting, but expensive parts so would be nice to get some of them cheap on BAM
  22. Unless the goat show up with that price again I will probably wait until most of the popular parts are bestsellers so I can get a nice GWP as a bonus I would not surprise me if Lego did the goat thing on purpose, what are the odds of all the parts added yesterday the goat was the only one that most likely had a wrong price?!
  23. They said in the set that goats where on sale, nice of them to follow true on that promise
  24. Unfortunately most of the animals from HP like the owls are licensed so they will not show up in PAB However the smowl from Friends should be there in time
  25. That is the default setting Unfortunately standard parts do not count any longer for GWP so best to wait until double vip points, however I am sure a lot will not wait that long for the goat If is is "cheap" I might buy them at the first chance, but they probably will not be so I will wait..
