Alpinemaps Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I think Arctic Batman and Lex Luthor Battlesuit fit into this category pre retirement. Eco-Suit must fit into this category now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciglione Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 My list:PS, T1, 60008 Museum Break-in, 70803 Cloud Cuckoo Palace, 70816 Benny SSSBut the most important one is 10249 Winter Toy Shop. It died but it will be resurrected. Can't it just die before it gets launched? Please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I joined this party very very late, so selfishly if it kills the resale market, I don't mind at all. I just want those sets!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huskers1236 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 My shelving units tell me that T1 in #1 on the list, with Tower Bridge right behind. Until yesterday I would have said WV Market. Death Star being the oldest living set will make it an obvious, popular choice, but since I only have a couple and will stay that way I quit worrying about what that set was doing some time ago. 10240 is another that I personally would like to see die, but it's really not THAT old yet compared to sets like Pet Shop, T1 and Tower Bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'm sure this is redundant and most probably feel the same but I seriously honestly want the Death Star to just die. I'm tired of looking at it, tired of hearing about it, so for the love of Yoda and everything The Force, just die. Please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenJ91 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 16 minutes ago, justapilgrim said: DC plz Is that Dolphin Cruiser? If so, I have a couple of those and I would also like that to go away. It says "sold out" and I'm seeing less in the wild, but they are still out there a bit. Not sure of potential on anything Friends and I have a few sets I wish I hadn't bought but the DC could do somewhat OK I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justapilgrim Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Yes, and I still see them everywhere. Honestly I have seen all the princess stuff clearanced, the elf line, shopping malls, the works.....and DC sits there at MSRP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 There´s been a few deaths recently but I think Pet Shop has to be the one that people have most tied up in and hasn´t gone. I don´t count T1 as the minivan was itself in production for about 681 years so it has a way to go yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
