actually any lego set can be a gem in few years time later...
as long as it stop producing then it will be rare... I suggest to keep the avengers theme.
it will be rare after few years later when Avengers 2 out.. lol... I think la... hahha
*
yeah but avengers dont see any large sets.. mostly those cheapo USD50-60 sets.. no USD100-150 sets.

Good news: Many new Lego fans
Bad news: Many new scalpers who just realize, there is many Lego escpecially minifigures fans actually.  sweat.gif

if currently selling lego items, scalpers tactics wont affect much, can they buy all the current model lego until sold out meh? (unlike ticket sales which scalpers profit from)

LOL... actually I do...

It's on its way from the States... wanted to buy 2 but buy 1 first, see how much is the postage since the Lego box itself already 15lb. the outer box might add another 4-6lb. to the final shipping figure.

And the freakin' shipping cost is killing me.... sad.gif

Will take some pix when it arrives... smile.gif

u bought for USD319 ar?

thinking of buying also but then so huge set dunno where to put the box liao..

Asked my fren to help buy and send to me...
Normally would use third party service but they always charge too high... always overstate the outer box size thus cheat a kilo here, cheat a kilo there...
*
usually send by air is using dimensional weight calculation.. so even if your weight is low but box is big, they may charge you more according to the formula.

u see the brown boxes are more cubic like normal box will look like, but our lego box is more flat but large surface so that really eat into volumetric or dimensional weight calculation. when you but both together, 1 lego box into 1 brown box, then your goods volumetric weight may go up 2x to 3x... from the actual weight..
