    OzRRP..

    It is a popular set sure, but it is also a new set that will be seen in greater numbers at retail (ie myer, david jones, bigW)and probably discounted later on..

    Jumping on the hype train for the latest lego set is why scalpers can flip them so easily..

    • mathew42 on 25/08/2017 - 22:48

      Possibly, but I'm not sure. There is very strong demand for this set.

      I went with the Lego Carousel to push it above $200 and save on postage. ;-)

    • Matt P on 26/08/2017 - 09:17

      Highly unlikely.

      Lego Ideas sets are usually far more limited in their runs.

      • OzViper on 26/08/2017 - 10:34
        +1

        That may be true for some sets, but things like the original Ghost Busters Car had quite a long run.

        Lego is a business. Would they really leave money on the table by ending a popular set early.. I wouldn't think so.

    Although you will be charged in AUD, your credit card processing bank may assess a transaction fee based on the fact that Lego A/S is a foreign vendor. Please consult your credit card issuer for details

      They probably just mean that your Aussie bank will charge a foreign transaction fee, not that the Lego shop will. Can be avoided by using a fee-free card such as 28 Degrees etc.

    Great set but these will be in stores in great quantity in the next few months if you can wait. Probably at a discount on sale too. If you want it now you can back order from Lego

    Remember- every store will have access to and can stock this set. It will be in plentiful stock after this initial hype dies down

    • CalmLemons on 25/08/2017 - 23:50

      Are you sure about that cause I just spent $400 on lego at full price. Damn ozbargain, I've spent nearly $10k after joining this year.

        Just a tower!? A rocket!?

        This is only the greatest, furthest ranging manned vehicle in history. A marvel of engineering, the pride of the free world, the culmination of billions of minds working to advance science throughout the ages, and hope that when we've exhausted the resources of this rock we might step off it on course for a new world, just as our ancestors who crossed the seas.

        Geez! Don't they teach knowledge in schools any more!?

    • siuol on 26/08/2017 - 00:26

      The Taj Mahal set is also a "repetitive shape" too.

      Also, not all people like to put an object which resembled a giant tombstone at home.

    • Max Power on 26/08/2017 - 00:29

      It's just a tower in the same way the Taj Mahal is just an onion dome.

    • havebeerbelywillsumo on 26/08/2017 - 02:49

      As well as as being "a rocket" it's a symbol of a more adventurous time as well as being a reminder of a fire breathing monster the likes of which will never be seen again……….lump it in with the glorious follies called Clippers, Concorde and Flying Boats.

      If only it somehow came with the sound of it blasting off!

      Would I buy this model, no, but it is never "just a".

    • schwinn on 26/08/2017 - 00:34

        Well yeah, that's a good example. The Technic Porsche has been on sale dozens of times over the past few months.

        Exactly… You could get it for as low as $305 two weeks ago.

        I'll never understand why anyone regularly pays RRP for Lego sets when there's always a new sale every other week.

      • Matt P on 26/08/2017 - 09:23

        Not the same thing. Technic kits are always readily available and for good periods of time. This is a lego ideas set.

      Lego Ideas sets aren't made in high volume and for long periods like Technic and other sets.

    I bought 2 earlier in the evening before this deal was posted and it had an estimated date of 5th September. Since its been OzBargained that date has blown out to the 11th of September.

    I saw one advertised on gumtree for $200 so I messaged the guy to see if it was still available and then he went on to say that he received an offer for $230 and if I was willing to bid against it. I told him "he's dreaming". Moral of the story is that there is plenty of demand still out there for this set.

    Also, good luck to the guy that will make the 1% of profits on all the units sold as it was created through Lego ideas.

    For anyone interested, shipping is $35, this kit which fits the theme nicely is $40 and then you'll be over $200 so shipping will be free. I think it's an extra $5 well spent and it's what i did.

    For my point of view, I bought this set from a local small retailer last month for $170, which actually was helped by my friend (he bought 2), they sold within 2 hours time. Compare to that, now you would get a free gift plus VIP points, which is slightly better deal.

    42056 Porsche actually was not sold out when it was released last year, becuase everybody wanted to get discounted price like 399 at TARGET OR BIGW, so no one was buying at RRP, plus RRP in Europe is much cheaper comparing to Australia, so there was lots of chance to purchase from different ways. However This Nasa Apolo set is almost sold out worldwide, it is seldom to see any non retired set being OOT status over past 2 month time. Australia RRP could be the cheapest comparing to other country. Also some Lego Idea set has really short life shell, example 21305 The Maze, which was introduced early last year but retired at the end of last year. You never know how long the Nasa Apolo will be in the market.

    At LEGO.COM, Nasa Apolo has 195 reviews for almost overall 5 within 3 months since releasing date compare to Porsche 99 reviews overall 4.7 during one year. I believe Nasa Apolo is one of the most welcomed and popular set at the moment.

    Anyway, this is the first ever non retired set bought at RRP from my 5 year Lego collecting life .

    • WJD21 on 26/08/2017 - 11:18

      The Porsche and Saturn V cannot be compared in terms of popularity/reviews. One has an RRP of $500 and appeals to a niche market while the other is two-thirds cheaper and has a greater audience (plenty of non-Lego fans also buying it).

      The FOMO with this set is palpable.

      How's the quality? Aren't they inferior?
      The design is the same?

      • jlogic on 27/08/2017 - 11:21

        Very similar, the only issues I have seen are the colouring of some pieces are slightly off i.e. a dark yellow would be a shade lighter etc.

        Also some of the pieces are not always the same i.e. they will replace a piece with another piece that does the job this normally happens if a piece requires a new injection mould made but another piece would do the job, this is why their number of pieces don't always line up with the Lego ones.

      • Max Power on 27/08/2017 - 16:33

        Lepin's overall quality control is evidently poor, with sealed bags containing dirty parts, malformed parts, parts with weak clutch, and one large part was missing entirely. These flaws are relatively unheard of with LEGO.

Lego is a really good company worth supporting, that havent skimped on the quality and reliability of their products after all these years, and legitimately deserve the money. I'll happily pay 70$ more to get a real set over the knock off.
