LEGO Shop@Home Retiring Soon List Updated

February 14, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has updated their list of “Retiring Soon” sets on Shop@Home. What’s interesting is the Legend of Chima Speedorz sets are the first in the theme to go away because they just came out late 2012/early 2013. We already know that there will be another wave of Chima sets this summer but it seems a little fast to retire these so early. If you’ve been holding off getting them, I’d suggest picking them up as soon as possible.

Update from LEGO:

Just wanted to clarify that there is no mistake on the Friends and Chima items. The Friends Pets and Chima Speedorz are set to refresh on much shorter timelines than most sets.

LEGO has added some new items to the “Retiring Soon” list on Shop@Home. A couple of sets to point out that may sell out faster than others are the Star Wars Imperial Shuttle and the Harry Potter Diagon Alley. Grab them while you can before LEGO stocks are deplenished and prices on the secondary market skyrocket.
