LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
Just a reminder that today is the last day for Double VIP Points at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home. For every $50 you spend, you get back $5 in points which equates to 10% off your purchase. Now is a good time to pick up some of the larger sets to get the most bang for your buck such as Maersk Line Triple-E (10241)
or sets that are retiring like the LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109)
.
Starting today and lasting until Saturday, April 4, Toys R Us is having a 2 for $5 sale on all LEGO Minifigures. You must buy 2 to get the offer. TRU is probably clearing out their inventory to make way for the upcoming LEGO The Simpsons Series 2 Minifigures (71009) in May. This offer is valid for both online and in stores. Happy pickings unless you’re buying online, then good luck.
Last year, LEGO CUUSOO made the transition to LEGO Ideas and all the active projects that were grandfathered in had 365 days to get 10,000 supporters. If you want to show your support for these older projects, you essentially have one month or 31 days, to be exact, before they are archived by the system.
Below are the top projects that have over 8,000 supporters with a month left that could use your support if they don’t already for the final homestretch.
Update: GlenBricker is running a LEGO Ideas Deadline Bracket over on his website of projects that are in their final days.
The March 2015 Brick Builders Club subscription box came in today. As I mentioned last month, this month’s box is a Castle theme so let’s see what we get inside.
The LEGO Ideas Exo Suit (21109) has finally been given the “Retiring Soon” tag on Shop@Home
. At the end of last month, I reported that Peter Reid’s set would be decomissioned, aka stopping production, and today the tag has been applied to it. There’s no word on the official date when the Exo Suit will be completely gone but it won’t be too long. Plus there’s still time to take advantage of the Double VIP Points event so get it while you can.
The LEGO BIONICLE Facebook Page has posted a behind the scenes video on the making of the LEGO BIONICLE Gold Masks that were first displayed at New York Comic Con last year. It looks like they are giving everyone another chance to win one of the six 14 karat Gold Masks in an upcoming competition that will probably utilize the hashtag #BionicleMaskHunt. Keep an eye out on the Facebook Page as they’ll be announcing the contest very soon.
Today is the last day to get in on the LEGO Brand Store only sales that I first reported two weeks ago. These particular sets are all 20% off and they do stack with the Double VIP Points event so get them while you can. You may want to call before you head out to check if your store still has them in stock.
