LEGO Cinderella’s Castle

[Gordon Gekko]

LEGO is out of stock and team member stated they aren’t sure if they are getting more or the product is being retired. Other than eBay is there is anywhere to snag this at retail?

Pretty broad question. Have you tried other online or brick and mortar retailers yet??

 

[Gordon Gekko]

Yes; can't find anywhere. Only 3rd party sites for $500+

The Lego store at Disney Springs had them at one point.

Keep looking - our stores in UK are still getting deliveries! You have to be on the ball!

It has not been discontinued. Keep checking. My sister was able to order one from Lego.com in early June for her daughter's birthday, although they won't receive it until August.

AFAIK It was only sold direct through LEGO and the LEGO Store - I don't believe it ever was available for ordinary retail shops to order. Same with the Main Street Train Station.

Which castle are you looking for? Is it the 71040, or one of the princess sets? If you're looking for that one, it's $350 through Lego.com. With a little research, though,and some creative decision making, you can whitle that price down some. What I do is go to BrickLink.com, get the parts inventory, then see what price I can get. Sometimes you have to make compromises. Certain bricks are rarer than others, and so you might be better off going with a different color, especially if the pieces in question are structural and aren't visible on the finished build. You can find the instructions for just about any set online. Often, there will be limited edition bricks that aren't necessary, or certificates of authenticity that are costly and ultimately worthless. If you're just interested in building, and not having a particular collector's item, that's usually a pretty good way to go. I'm going to fiddle with it myself to see what kind of price I get.

So playing around on Bricklink, I removed all the minifigs and the sticker sheet and it's still about $700. The set is out of stock on the LEGO site, so your best bet is probably ebay, which is currently selling it at $380.

I know it's months later, but the set is back on ShopDisney today. Just purchased one myself as I've been eyeballing it forever.

It was sold at World of Disney and the Disneystore.com also.

I'm glad you mentioned that! I was looking at these sets today via third party sellers and they want a mortgage payment to purchase them!
