p8nt4lyfe Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hey team, I noticed that the Hayabusa is sold out on LEGO Shop at Home...Has anyone noticed this? Does this hint at a "under the radar" EOL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldbricks Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 What country? In the US, nothing on LEGO Shop at Home has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_rockefeller Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Trust me......all the serious cats on here already knew. Sometimes it good not to share everything you see hope you were able to get a few before it sold out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallwebber Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I bought a couple of them when LEGO Shop at Home had them on sale 10% off a few months back. Very unique set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallwebber Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 Just checked LEGO Shop at Home usa.Yes, it is sold out. If you click add to bag, nothing happens. When I clicked for a more detailed view, it says sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p8nt4lyfe Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 I like to consider myself a "serious cat" as I already have 5 of these, I was just curious if this is a hint at EOL or a restocking thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_rockefeller Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 My personal opinion is its gone forever, but who knows. Good to see you have 5, I stock up all the Cuusoo sets, I think they are winners! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I like to consider myself a "serious cat" as I already have 5 of these, I was just curious if this is a hint at EOL or a restocking thing? It is relatively hard to judge, because this is one of the first CUUSOO models. If it is actually retiring, then the LEGO CUUSOO models have very short shelf life. According to Brickset, the Hayabusa was released exactly 1 year ago on July 12, 2012. They [brickset] is also saying that the UK hasn't had these since Christmas 2012, so it could be the end.

spener90 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I contacted Lego yesterday and they said it is done. It no longer appears on the site when searched. I believe it is finished, so I grabbed 2 from Amazon for $70, which is what it already sells for. It should easily hit $100 by Christmas.

stephen_rockefeller Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 The thing we don't know is how the cuusoo sets will perform.......sure the 1st one has done well but remember that it was only available in Japan and that is why it has done so well. The first true test will be the hayabusa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoBro94 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I personally will not be investing in this set. I honestly think it is hideous, which is why haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it good not to share everything you see hope you were able to get a few before it sold out! Trust you? Serious cats already knew? Not good to share everything you see? Lego LEGO Shop at Home now says "Out of stock, expected ship date 8 Aug 2013". Where do you get your information from? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_rockefeller Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I was stating that most of us already knew the status of the set on the website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you contact Lego LEGO Shop at Home or the local stores? I've learned from these threads that you cannot rely on anyone at Lego to tell you when something is EOL. But hearing it from them is better than nothing esp if the same message is being communicated by numerous Lego sources and consistent with recent trends. Based on some of the posts on this thread, I really believed they were unofficially EOL'd - meaning sold out at Lego with no more production plans. Lego LEGO Shop at Home now says "Out of stock, expected ship date 8 Aug 2013" so you can now get them at RRP and you may want to consider returning your Amazon purchase. It appears to be a limit of 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auntiemamel Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Spener90, don't know if we got from same seller on amazon, but I attempted to return. Within 2 minutes, they offered me a refund of 25.00, or accepted the return with a 15-30 percent restocking fee. All I had to do was tell them where I saw it cheaper. Hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
