wow, it is my impression that demand is high in EU for the GWP: probably the best GWP ever for the fourth of may
@aduckquackquack57835 ай бұрын
Yep. Sold out.
@DGBricksYT5 ай бұрын
It did sell out in the USA shortly after we recorded this video on the 4th. Early indications are that the GWP bundle is pretty close to last year's trajectory so far, with the race to the bottom nearing its low point.
@kdxbricksanalytics5 ай бұрын
Yeah, and since it has minifigs (kinda) and is good for baddies army building, I'm holding until at least the holidays. I think it will get up to last year's GWP!

I have to say, I picked up a UCS tie interceptor on the first and it’s one of the best builds I’ve ever got. Loved the model + the promos just made it so much better.
@DGBricksYT5 ай бұрын
With all those promos, it's probably the best deal that set will ever see! Even better if the 10% cash back beginning 5/5 was added.

29:30 That Phase 2 clone trooper also was in 2014 Lego Star Wars advent calendar with an extra santa hat and the set also comes with his clone trooper helmet so not 100% quite exclusive there.

I don’t invest, but I’m confused on why anyone would have already invested in the Venator when realistically it could still be on the shelf for 4+ years. Unless there was such profit in splitting up the set and the individual mini figure which I guess could have been a play.
@DGBricksYT5 ай бұрын
I'm right with you, completely pointless to purchase the Venator for investment this year or next. As you say, maybe it's sellers separating them, or quick flippers.

I’m starting to consider the Mechs for collecting. These look sweet on display. Maybe it is the Gundam style that also appeals to me. I could see these becoming desirable in the future.

Much depends on whether the Luke's X-Wing mech is the last one, or if they release 5-10 more in the future.

The new Paz Visla figure has an improved helmet compared to the old one in the forge which will make that figure collectible. Also the stormtrooper commandos in the battle pack all died in that scene and shouldn’t ever appear in a set again.
