Two Weeks Left to Get LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon for Black VIP Card

There are about two weeks left in the year and for those who are still trying to get the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192), here are some tips for you to potentially get one to get the exclusive Black VIP Card before the end of 2017.

Shop@Home is pretty much out of the question as there has been very low quantities on-hand online for a short period of time. Your best chance to get one is if you live close to a LEGO Brand Store. Either call or visit them and check if their waiting list for the Falcon is close to being done. I’ve have a few reports from readers that say their stores (Palisades Mall for one) have completed their lists and the Falcons are now on a first-come, first-served basis. If they do have some in stock, ask if they can put it on hold and you can hop over there to pick it up. If not, check when their next shipments are and it’s possible there may be some on the trucks. Also you can ask to be put on the waiting list if the stores are still doing them for the next ones that come in.

It’s unfortunate that the Black LEGO VIP Card is only available with a purchase of the UCS Millennium Falcon because there was so much demand and very little quantities for fans, there’s no way that it will pass the reported 30,000 number of cards that are available.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) – Day 16

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

Continuing with today’s build for the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253), we have one of the most parts intensive builds for this calendar so far. Coming in at 27 pieces, today’s build is a hybrid bird which looks like a combination of a chicken and a turkey. The color scheme is decent but the olive green slope and the gray angular plate pieces seem out of place. Other than that, it’s a decent looking model.

New LEGO Ninjago Pods Available at LEGOLAND California

The LEGO pods that have been released this year seem to be pretty popular and it looks like there will be some more coming soon. A Reddit user has found two more LEGO Ninjago pods that has showed up at LEGOLAND California. These new pods featuring Jay (853758) and Cole (853759) are now in cardboard packaging instead of a polybag like with Kai. THe builds include an armor rack along with their respective weapons.

Usually products that show up at LEGOLAND first will be available later at either LEGO Brand Stores/Shop@Home or other retailers like Toys R Us so we’ll see what happens with these two new Ninjago pods.

LEGO Hamley’s Royal Guard Minfigure Polybag Revealed

If you’re in the UK, you may want to swing over to Hamley’s as there’s an exclusive LEGO minifigure that you can pick up there. As reported by Bricksfanz, the store will have their own Royal Guard minifigure polybag that retails for £6.00.

LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253)

We’re down to the last ten days of the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Build Up (40253) and hopefully we’ll be seeing some exciting builds as we count down to the final days. For today’s build, we have a good looking lamppost that honestly could be used in your Winter Village layout. There’s nothing much to it as the lamppost sits on top of a 2×2 jumper plate. There’s also a couple of wreaths for decoration as well.
