Two Exclusive Early Access LEGO Sets Coming in May

April 9, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The last important piece of news that comes out of the May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar is that LEGO has revealed there will be two new exclusive sets that will be available for Early Access for LEGO VIP members from May 16-31.

One of the sets that could be coming out for Early Access is the LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron (42083) which was teased back at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. The speculation comes from the announcement on the minisite for the set which shows that the release date had been pushed up to June 1 for world release. This makes sense as Early Access is a few weeks before the general release of the set.

The other set that will be coming out is a complete mystery to me. From what I’ve gathered online, it could be the Visitor’s Center from Jurassic Park as it has been heavily rumored. As we know by now, we’re already getting a Walmart exclusive 25th anniversary set called the Jurassic park Velociraptor Chase (75932) and there’s talk that it could somehow connect to the Visitor’s Center. But again, these are just rumors so we’ll get the information of the second Early Access set later this month or early next month.

What are your guesses on what the exclusives that will be coming out next month early for VIPs? Let us know in the comments below.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2018 Promotions Revealed

April 6, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The new LEGO catalogs have started to show up in mailboxes and it shows some of the promotions we can expect to see during the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event that is happening from May 4-6. As I stated before, LEGO has not revealed the May 2018 Store Calendar to keep the promotions a secret but the cat is out of the bag now. Let’s go over the promos, shall we?

As you can see from the image above provided to me by Jeff on Twitter, the main promotion is the LEGO Star Wars Mini BB-8 polybag with a purchase of $75 or more on May 4th only. This is the building version of the character which is similar to what we got last year with R2-D2.

We can also get Double VIP Points during the whole promotional period which is expected.

There will be select LEGO Star Wars items on sale at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home including Kylo Ren’s TIE Fighter.

Finally, the recently revealed UCS Y-Wing (75181) will be available for purchase for $199.99.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th BB-8 Promotion Rumor

April 3, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

We’re already a few days into April but you may have noticed that there’s no May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar that I usually report on at the beginning of the month. That’s because LEGO is keeping it under wraps for now for surprise promotions for the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event however there are already rumors of what one of the promotions will be. Word has it that BB-8 may be the polybag that will be given out as a gift with purchase and the size would be similar to R2-D2 (30611) from last year. The build would be similar to the BB-8 from the Bricktober 2017 event last year but with printed parts. Stay tuned as we get closer to May for any reveals.

LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358) Promotion Live on Shop@Home

March 31, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358) promotion is now live on LEGO Shop@Home. From now until April 15, you can get it for free with purchase of $75 or more, while supplies last. Like with the 40 Years of the Brick promotion, I have a feeling that this promo will sell out fairly quickly.

The set comes with a LEGO designer minifigure along with some microfigures of the Classic Policeman, Pirate, Spaceman, P.I.X.A.L., and a Nurse. There’s also some parts for the design table and it uses the box itself as a layout.

To help you reach the $75 threshold, LEGO has released some new products including Go Brick Me (41597), the Avengers: Infinity War LEGO BrickHeadz, and the Series 18 Collectible Minifigures (71021).

LEGO City Train Sales on Amazon

March 25, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I haven’t done these posts in a while but Amazon currently has some LEGO City train sets on sale which price matches some other retailers. They are some of the older train sets from 2014 so they could be retired soon given that there’s a rumor of some new train sets coming this summer/fall. There are also some additional track sets that are on sale which are at their lowest prices ever on Amazon including the Flex Tracks (7499) and the Switch Tracks (7895).
