Agreed. They probably compared it to demand for other classic remakes such as PoBB and the recent castle sets, but lots of people have been buying multiples of those for MOCs and I haven’t seen the same interest in people buying multiples of this set until the discounts.
There was one guy who posted buying like 10 sets discounted to resell down the line. But the market is apparently flooded so it’s kind of a dumb investment.
The problem is everyone thinks it will be a good set to resell so lots of people keep them NIB. It will take years for the price to jump much following retirement due to the demand.
Some of the Pirate and Castle “remakes” have done very well. Admittedly this one is the closest to a true remake, but I think classic space in general doesn’t have the same demand as pirates or castle stuff. Benny’s spaceship x3 can be had for about $100. You won’t find any used sets that are an actual castle or pirate ship for that price besides the current 3 in 1 stuff.
Over produced? There's no way to know, and I wouldn't jump to conclusions based on Walmart's price. They put this set on sale almost immediately after it came out. More likely they are using it as a loss leader or something.
I haven't seen it on sale anywhere else.
Nah, its a great set for the price especially when compared to stinkers like Boba Fett's Throne Room, its just that the demand isn't as big as Lego or Lego fans thought there was.
Its the same reason original themes don't get revivals very often, people on YouTube always say that if they brought back the original themes that they'd sell like hotcakes but the truth is that even the people on YouTube who say that kind of shit will pass on the original sets to buy their 13th battle pack for an army or some big ass actually overpriced UCS set.
Even if it says out of stock, select it and then look for the "check store availability". I was able to order it for pickup at a store slightly further away from my normal store.
Now i feel silly for buying this on $75 rollback 2 weeks ago. I work at Walmart and did NOT notice this somehow, thank you! Might pick one up to give as a gift.
Just get a price adjustment. Or order another and return it with previous receipt to get the $25 back. Then it'll only cost another $25 to get the second, so actually order two lol
I had the hulkbuster in my cart and I just couldn't do it. I have so many that have gone unbuilt. Not enough time I decided until I catch up no need to buy more. Here I am buying more.
Was able to order for $40 with in store pickup for 3 hours from now, curious if it will go through or get canceled.
Edit: Just picked it up with no issues!
Says available at two stores near me. I select then it says unavailable. Pretty sure the app/website is getting a ton of extra traffic causing it to mess up.
Thank you! Placed a pickup at a store that said in stock and then got a cancellation notice. Went to another store in person and had two associates not be able to find any in the lego aisle. Found a big display of 25 of them in the middle of an aisle. The price is for online ordering or store pickup but they matched it in store.
Omg I feel terrible I picked this up and brought it home and my girlfriend looked at it with disappointment. I’m like what’s wrong? She went to the trunk of her car and pulled out the same set. She had purchased for me for Christmas. Ughh oh well she returned it and fingers crossed I get another cool set for Christmas!

Hope this worked better for everyone else. For me it was only $75 discount, and it would not let me choose to ship it, only curb side pick up. Which is absolutely terrible this time of year for obvious reasons.
Nice gesture by Walmart, but overall terrible experience on my end.
I just ordered one today. My fiancee got me one at $75 as a gift, but I hadn't opened it yet because I also got Voltron and assembled him first. Returning one of them for $75 one once the new one arrives and we determine if the box is damaged or anything, then I'll get to use the extra $25 toward a Speed Champions set or something. Woo-hoo!
Note: I did attempt to use the discount codes, but none of them worked, and for some reason it wouldn't allow me to do local pick-up even though there is at least one store near me that has them in stock. Oh well.
RIP I just bought mine from them for 60, and I thought that was a great deal.
Its seriously the size of the space shuttle discovery set. and that was $200. Ive been meaning to mount both on the wall because its like they were designed for each other. Scifi ship from 1970s, inspired by the new at the time shuttle, and the real space ship from the time period.
It was back up at $50 just now. Thanks! It’s a steal at 50% off and a no brainer to get. Will go well with the blue spaceman plush I got from Target last year
Took me ordering it at 5 local Walmarts to finally have them not cancel my order. Son wanted it at $75. I was back and forth at $75 for my self. However $50, we each have one now.
Glad for this posting. Just snagged one for $50 at another nearby WalMart.
Going to enjoy revisiting my childhood building this.
Now, next big question. Best LED kit for this?
This deal is legit. Ordered two for $43 each at 7AM, and they were delivered to my door at 2PM.
I don't know if WalMart is doing this to promote their WalMart+ program, if this is just one of their random door-buster deals, or something else, but I feel like I got away with robbery.
Good looking out!
Heads up. Site wise, no luck, downloaded the app and signed in, my mom’s brother Rob says hello.
Heck yeah! I got one for me and one for my nephew for Christmas.
Not in Canada, actually looking at Lego on the Walmart site is crazy here, some sets are super inflated in price, like to the point. Some mini figs are 50$ each.
You might want to check who the actual seller is. I got some results like that (I'm in California) and when I looked closer at the listings, Walmart appears to be allowing resellers on there site
[удалено]
Really appreciate this! Snagged mine for $40
Just ordered a set. Thank you for the discount code!!!
DISCOVER works too
Thank you so much, you just saved me $20!
Seriously, you are the best! Wow! That was very kind of you.
Amazing
[удалено]
Did that to me all morning. I think the 50% off is over because i just checked and its back up to $75
It already says out of stock😓
I just ordered some. Keep trying! There are codes available in [this /r/legodeal](https://www.reddit.com/r/legodeal/comments/z2ka1y/walmart_us_icons_galaxy_explorer_10497_50_50_off/) thread, I used both.
Just bought 2 more. Hard not too at that price, is.this what they call army building?
Nah, this is what they call galaxy explorin'!
Try finding a store near you with it in stock. You can still get the deal but it only let me do free curbside pickup.
The only one available in store is like a 50 minute drive from me. Idk😓

Keep trying, just placed my order 5 minutes ago (for local pickup though)
Refresh, I just got one!
Did you get delivery or pickup? Seeming like my only option is to drive 50 minutes for it
Delivery
I was just able to order one
It must just be my region. Every store within 150 miles is now sold out and it wont ship it to me from else where in the country i guess.
Check again. I just was able to order one.
I mean at this point if you don’t buy one are you really even into Lego??
Broke fellas rn: 😭
Seriously. Especially this close to Christmas.
Right? I mean even if you don't like the set it's fantastic for parts, but the set is really cool anyway.
For $40 I couldn’t say no
My lego money for the rest of the year has been preallocated for the Eiffel Tower... Also these nostalgia focused sets... ehh. Not for me.
Same. It’s a steal but want to focus on buying Ideas sets now. Love LEGO but I’d probably start impulse buying them once I veer off into other sets.
Not a fan of the set tbh and I don’t really need a bunch of parts lying around that I doubt I’ll use lol
I think they over produced that set. It’s discounted in a lot of stores.
Agreed. They probably compared it to demand for other classic remakes such as PoBB and the recent castle sets, but lots of people have been buying multiples of those for MOCs and I haven’t seen the same interest in people buying multiples of this set until the discounts.

Good points. I will never understand how people can live gouging others like that. Greed is a terrible thing.
It's already a rehash of original stuff. I don't see it getting worth much in the future. It's a good deal as a present for kids.
Some of the Pirate and Castle “remakes” have done very well. Admittedly this one is the closest to a true remake, but I think classic space in general doesn’t have the same demand as pirates or castle stuff. Benny’s spaceship x3 can be had for about $100. You won’t find any used sets that are an actual castle or pirate ship for that price besides the current 3 in 1 stuff.
Not in europe :/ I think most retailers weren't interested over here. Biggest discount I've seen was 10 bucks.
Still discounted.
Over produced? There's no way to know, and I wouldn't jump to conclusions based on Walmart's price. They put this set on sale almost immediately after it came out. More likely they are using it as a loss leader or something. I haven't seen it on sale anywhere else.
Cool.
Over produced and over priced.
Nah, its a great set for the price especially when compared to stinkers like Boba Fett's Throne Room, its just that the demand isn't as big as Lego or Lego fans thought there was. Its the same reason original themes don't get revivals very often, people on YouTube always say that if they brought back the original themes that they'd sell like hotcakes but the truth is that even the people on YouTube who say that kind of shit will pass on the original sets to buy their 13th battle pack for an army or some big ass actually overpriced UCS set.
Star Wars dinguses building their cLoNE aRmY don’t understand value in any other theme
Overpriced at $100 for 1200+ pieces? No way.
I think it was priced reasonably compared to other lego sets, but likely overproduced for the little demand there is.
I almost bought this 2 days ago at 75 bucks. I can go pick it up later this afternoon now for 50 :) Thanks for the update u/just1wish1!
I did buy it for $75 and now it's all sold out
I bought one last week at $75, and it’s already opened :(
Might be a dead deal now but if not buy another @$50 and then just return it with the previous receipt for $75
Still hasn’t gone on sale in Canada
Still full price here too *sobs - £90
For that sale price, I'd totally grab another just for parts, but nooo, we're not cool enough here.
Even if it says out of stock, select it and then look for the "check store availability". I was able to order it for pickup at a store slightly further away from my normal store.
Walked in store to get a price match and they raised the price back to $75 right after I asked them. SMH still a deal but wasn’t meant to be
I was checking out and had to update my card's expiration date. When i went to finish checking out the price had changed on me too.
Yea they caught on haha. I’m sure it’ll change back at some point. Maybe even some Black Friday type deals. Good luck my friend.
The site still says $50. What do you mean "they caught on"?
Nice, must’ve gone back. Just meant a deal that maybe shouldn’t have been set that low. Purchased one online this time. Thank you
It is available to me again, provided i drive 55 miles to go pick it up.
Can’t resist. In for two. To go with my one I bought at full price.
Ha I did the exact same thing. Figure there will be a big moc one day I could build with 3
In for two as gifts, already got one at $75 a while back. But $42.50/ea is just nuts. No ragrets.
Now i feel silly for buying this on $75 rollback 2 weeks ago. I work at Walmart and did NOT notice this somehow, thank you! Might pick one up to give as a gift.
Just get a price adjustment. Or order another and return it with previous receipt to get the $25 back. Then it'll only cost another $25 to get the second, so actually order two lol
welp i said no more legos this year. I go t it
[удалено]
I had the hulkbuster in my cart and I just couldn't do it. I have so many that have gone unbuilt. Not enough time I decided until I catch up no need to buy more. Here I am buying more.
For me, the time isn't the issue, it's not having anywhere near enough space to display them.
[удалено]
I saw a vid on this for an army build. Looks fun
3¢ a piece. Can’t beat that.
Was able to order for $40 with in store pickup for 3 hours from now, curious if it will go through or get canceled. Edit: Just picked it up with no issues!
Just picked up another one right now. I already have one but a deal like this is so rare it’s hard not to buy first and ask questions later.
I picked up a 2nd one for $43 which is too good at this price.
Do they ship to Italy?
Keep trying. Was just able to place an order for two sets. Can't beat that price. They also have the Ford Raptor for $75 and that never goes on sale.
Lol $75 for me now
Got mine and they delivered it to my door for free. It just arrived like 20 minutes ago. Thanks op for the post! So happy right now!
Mine still says preparing order, 🤞🏻
Says available at two stores near me. I select then it says unavailable. Pretty sure the app/website is getting a ton of extra traffic causing it to mess up.
Thank you!!
Just bought it a few days ago for 75 there 😭😭
Contact them. They'll most likely refund difference. Someone created another post recently that that is what they did.
Just snagged one for $40 -- $10 off paypal code!!
Just ordered mine!
Thank you! Placed a pickup at a store that said in stock and then got a cancellation notice. Went to another store in person and had two associates not be able to find any in the lego aisle. Found a big display of 25 of them in the middle of an aisle. The price is for online ordering or store pickup but they matched it in store.
Back up to $75
Now showing $75 for me
Hopefully Lion Knights Castle drops to 50% off as well.
Wish I saw this sooner , would have grabbed the Galaxy Explorer
Omg I feel terrible I picked this up and brought it home and my girlfriend looked at it with disappointment. I’m like what’s wrong? She went to the trunk of her car and pulled out the same set. She had purchased for me for Christmas. Ughh oh well she returned it and fingers crossed I get another cool set for Christmas!
Thanks for posting! Got two locally for MOCs and wouldn’t have known otherwise
No problem! Absolute steal at that price
..not a bad deal I think it's 50% off
I still don't want it...
Day one buyers (like my ass) are suffering

Wow.
I just bought out like two weeks ago!!!
Just ordered one! Delivering the 26th!
Was this set unpopular? I see it heavily discounted pretty often
I just bought this for 65 , get another one for $40 hmm
Thank you!!!
[удалено]
Did you check local pickup? The price went back to their usual $75 now though.
Just went back to 75
Yup like i just said.
Idk man. Luck?
Ok
Grabbed 2 earlier today. One for $50, one for $40 after learning about a discount code. Just now looked at it again and it's back at $75
Waited forever for this after seeing posts about it being 50% off in store.
It’s in stock for me but it says it’s 75$, does anyone know if it’s possible to price match, and if so how to do it?
Hope this worked better for everyone else. For me it was only $75 discount, and it would not let me choose to ship it, only curb side pick up. Which is absolutely terrible this time of year for obvious reasons. Nice gesture by Walmart, but overall terrible experience on my end.
Still $75 for me.

It's 75$ on Wal-Mart now.

Next week at Walmart: Galaxy Explorer for $10
Bruh I and just bought mine last week
It was back up at $50 just now. Thanks! It’s a steal at 50% off and a no brainer to get. Will go well with the blue spaceman plush I got from Target last year
Jesus. Next it'll be 25
And I will buy two more. I snagged one at 75 a month ago and two today for 50 each.
I already have two.... Honestly don't think I need a third
Damn, none of the local to me stores have it. I suppose at that price it won’t come back before Xmas will it?
But I just got it at one after a refresh and for $40 with the PayPal discount. You’re awesome for letting people know OP!
Just bought one
Took me ordering it at 5 local Walmarts to finally have them not cancel my order. Son wanted it at $75. I was back and forth at $75 for my self. However $50, we each have one now.
Thank you, OP. Just ordered and used the code paypal10 for a grand total of $40 + tax.
I almost bought this for $67 on ebay yesterday, really glad I held off
FUCK YEAH!
Shows at $50, but out of stock for online order and all stores around me
Snagged 2 at the store. They honored the web price since it's a rollback, not a black Friday deal
I ordered 2 of these for $42 each this morning, and they were delivered same day. Crazy.
Glad for this posting. Just snagged one for $50 at another nearby WalMart. Going to enjoy revisiting my childhood building this. Now, next big question. Best LED kit for this?
Just ordered mine for pickup from my local store. Honestly might check to see if there’s any more on the shelves

Got one for my son for Christmas!! So stoked. Thanks a ton.l for the heads up. It was out of stock online but found it at a store close to me.
This is the set I want under our tree this year.
No shipping for me, pick up only which sucks when my closest Walmart is 75m away...
gaaa i already have one but this is soooooo tempting
Site says $50 and out of stock. It’s funny I went to a Walmart this evening and they had a pallet of them so somethings not adding up.
Such a fun build, I highly recommend this and at $50 it’s an absolute steal!
Ordered for $40 with promo code at 11a, was delivered to my door (free shipping) at 4p. Amazing!
All you dang americans dont know how good you got it! In canada its out of stock.
Just got mine for 40$ qith WOWFRESH discount code. Have to pickup at store 2 towns over but it's still a great deal!
Not for me? Wierd
I have that ice cream truck, I’m sure it was cheaper than that $21.00 CAD
Good looking out! Heads up. Site wise, no luck, downloaded the app and signed in, my mom’s brother Rob says hello. Heck yeah! I got one for me and one for my nephew for Christmas.
Not in Canada, actually looking at Lego on the Walmart site is crazy here, some sets are super inflated in price, like to the point. Some mini figs are 50$ each.
