Has this been discontinued within the last two days? The set release dates are showing this as ending 15th April 2013. The entry for the friends set Mia's Magic Tricks was also showing the same date? I cant believe that has been discontinued already.

Think you're seeing the same problem I saw a few days ago. Looks like it's not fixed yet...

Thanks @briking. I had read that when you posted it, but then promptly forgot about it.

I just ordered mine and it was still there when I ordered it on the 20th.

I did a search for the 2013 release schedule and I don't see any updates for the mini-modular series. When the schedule originally surfaced, I seeme to remember that an update for scheduled for release this year. Anyone have any info?

^ don't know about that, but I would have thought that they'd wait another two years until there's been a total of 10, so that they can release another 5 in a set. That would give the current set a lifespan of about 3 years.

^ They could do smaller sets with 2 or 3 and use a lower price point. I don't think 10230 sold very well. It "seemed" expensive for what it was even though the piece count justifies the price.

@bosstone100 I thought that rumor was about a set with a really generic name like "modular expansion pack" and that one of the guesses about it was that it was an expansion set for the mini modulars. I haven't found the thread, that's just what I remember but we haven't seen anything that would fit that description yet.

@jenni - yes, that was it. Modular Expansion Pack. Well, I'll probably pick up some directions online and bricklink them.
