Enterprise boldly gone, but sale continues
Posted by Huw,
Perhaps unsurprisingly, LEGO's first foray into the Star Trek universe has been exceedingly successful. 10356 Star Trek: U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D has boldly gone out of stock in the USA, and is on backorder until February in other markets.
The clear-out of items due to retire soon continues during the weekend, with over 130 items reduced in the USA and 90-odd in the UK and Europe. You can view all discounts at LEGO.com where you are, although it's not possible to order by percent discount. You can do that on our Buy listings.

You mean boldy gone, surely?
The Shuttlepod is sold out in the EU
I bought four. It is very nice set! :)
Did they sell out of the Shuttles in the US? That might be why they have labelled it sold out, so nobody can place an order when the Shuttle promo is on but out of stock. It might also be to block the other current promos for an order for a set that cannot be delivered for a while. Whereas in Europe it is quicker to replenish stock and they have some Shuttles left.

Yeah, the item page for 10356 still shows it as a GWP, but adding it to your basket doesn’t add. Bugged, but indeed out of stock.

For me it now only shows the 2 other GWP's on the Enterprise product page
Stupid question but why are my comments in red ????

But more than that - I believed that I could see... five sets.

because they're your comments. they only show up as red to you. to me they look normal. took me a while to figure that out too. i guess it's so when you're scrolling through the comment section it's easy to see at a glance where yours are? what would be even more helpful is if replies to our comments were also a different color so they'd be easy to spot

Same here now.
Why don't they just have a limit of one purchase per account so long as the exclusive GWP that is tied in with the main item is in stock and after it sells out put it on a normal limit.

So it seems. It was still available when I wrote the article!

Misprint for capital letter. Should be Boldy.
Anyone who open could confirm that have error on sticker?

They do.
However, enforcement of the policy can vary with high-priced GWPs. Enforcement of the policy was strict for all GWPs during the approximately one year period prior to the pandemic. Since then, Lego has predominantly used a limit on the base item as a means to alleviate hoarding/scalping.

That's looking for trouble both with Lego and the other fans on this site. Some things shouldn't be spoken, and certainly not posted.

Meant to say one set per account till exclusive GWP is sold out and yes they are very lax about enforcement
It was sold out for me this morning, I already ordered one, considered ordering a second but ultimately decided, nah what do I need a second one for, give someone else a chance , had one final look in the wee small hours and it was sold out.
Zero surprise its sold so well. Apparently the demand crashed the Lego site from what I'm reading around.
Hopefully the success means we get a full fledged theme with ship and characters from the whole range of shows. Pretty sure alot of people would love the NX-01 Enterprise and Kirks 1701 to go with this... Let along the likes of Romulan Warbirds or Klingon Birds of Prey.

Yes, it’s great news and will definitely drive LEGO to making an expanding range of products from the Star Trek franchise. I’m so excited for the future of LEGO Star Trek.

I'm assuming you have the site set to dark mode? If it's set to light mode, the whole box containing your comment turns pinkish.

Surely you can't be serious.
Sorry, couldn't resist ;-)
I had this set in my cart with GWP at midnight and decided then was the time to kick my LEGO habit. Horrible decision. Definite regret. Hopefully someday LEGO makes a Type 6 shuttlecraft to ease my pain. ; )

I’d guess that there are probably some really unsavoury people that would deliberately order whilst backordered, along with something else perhaps, just to get the GWP.
Then once they’ve received the GWP, cancel the enterprise order.
It just occcurred to me earlier that this could happen.
I wish it hadn’t. Such dirty behaviour
If only I had any other LEGO to build. Oh wait. :o)
75406 Kylo Ren's shuttle on sale and yet still too expensive.
I'm surprised they're retiring the Christmas wreath, but maybe I just assumed it was more popular because I like it.

"Boldy gone", if we're within design parameters.

I have no doubt some would have done it. But I think it (the shuttle) went OOS quick enough it wouldn't be many.

Most of the time, you'd just give scalpers more stock to buy. I usually buy two to give my self the best chance to get a quality box (UPS sucks) and then sell the second locally at what I paid to someone who missed out.
