It looks like the LEGO Marvel X-Men X-Jet (76281) has gotten its permanent discount on Amazon. It is now priced at $67.99 which is 20% off or $17 off the regular price of $84.99. It does have minifigures of Wolverine, Cyclops, Rogue, and Magneto and that partly contributes to the higher price on top of the Disney tax. I’m curious to see if it will actually go any lower online (not the Walmart/Target markdowns) or if it’ll just be at this price until it retires.

In the heart of the jungle, an uncanny group of structures pierces the canopy like jagged teeth. Bart De Dobbelaer’s Xethral, Legacy of the Vanished is a haunting LEGO creation that embodies what used to be a shimmering power source of a lost civilization. He states that legends tell that Xethral’s scholars learned to channel this energy to sustain their cities, illuminate the night, and power machines far beyond modern understanding. However, when the stars aligned against them, a great silence fell, an entire culture was swallowed by vines and mist. Now, only their depleted power sources and crumbling crystal towers remain, silent witnesses to a brilliance long erased from history. It’s just the kind of esoteric lore Bart is known for. As with most of what he does, it garners more questions than answers. But at perhaps great risk to our personal well-being, we come back to ask more questions....
