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 The Incredibles Video Game Box Art

March 24, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last week, the internet kind of broke with the reveal of the teaser of the LEGO The Incredibles Video Game comign from the back of the instructions for LEGO Juniors Incredibles 2 sets. There weren’t many details except that it would be coming out for the PlayStation 4, PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, and XBox One.

There’s some new information that came out of Amazon Canada which revealed that the potential release date would be on June 15 which is the same day the movie comes out in theaters. Also on those listings, they’ve also revealed the box art for the PS4 and Nintendo Switch. The covers show Mr. Incredible in a bulkier LEGO form, Elastigirl, Violet Parr, Dashiell Parr, and Jack-Jack in the foreground with Frozone hovering the in background.

I’ve been told that the official announcement of the game from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will be coming out soon so stay tuned for that. There’s no word on an exclusive minifigure to go with the game but I wouldn’t mind having a LEGO minifigure of Frozone since we haven’t had one before.
