Does it have pieces to changes the year to 2026 and beyond?
Your question was answered above, but yes. In fact, last time I saw the box they photoshopped it to make the number look agnostic, so nobody thinks it is limited to a single year without buying pieces or being creative.

Humm, didn't know that a number could appear agnostic.
However concerning changing the year, if you look closely at the bottom left side of the front of the box, there is a circular section which shows how you can piece together the yellow sections to change the numbers for every year.
Got this for $18 on Nov 10th. Wonder if it will return to that level again?
Actually I have been quite surprised at the price volatility of this particular Lego set. When I tried to pick up another the next day, the price had increased to something like $21. It was only at $18 for something like one day. Then it kept climbing till it reached its listed price of $30. Then plunged briefly back down to $21 for a day. Then back to $30. As far as I can tell, there is absolutely no rhyme or reason for this random volatility. It's not even close to the Lunar New Year or the Dragon Boat festival. So I was only being somewhat facetious when I said "Wonder if it will return to that level again." But then again it wouldn't surprise me to see it at 50% off ($15) as we approach the Feb 17th Lunar New Year if they really want to sell a bunch of this particular Lego set.

My guess is that this is a closeout. I doubt the stock will make it till February.

If this were a closeout, why would they have raised the price to $30 just a little while ago? Also as this has a perpetual calendar and has been selling for several years, I wouldn't be surprised to see it offered a year from now and many years to come.
