LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod Promo Clarification

December 11, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

As you may or may not have known by now, the upcoming promotion for the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) has been officially cancelled. I’ve gotten some clearer information about what will be replacing it for customers here in the US. They are as follows:

– In US and Canada, we will be offering 100 bonus VIP points on all Star Wars sets purchased through LEGO Brand Retail stores or on shop.LEGO.com

– The promotion is only valid on LEGO Star Wars sets and excludes items from our extended line such as keychains, magnets, books, etc.

– Offer is valid December 15th-24th

– Europe is running a 10% discount on Star Wars sets (excluding the UCS Falcon) during the same time.

The cancellation of the Darth Vader Pod is a bummer since fans have been waiting for it to complete their collection of Pods that have been released this year. The 100 VIP bonus point is basically a $5 discount and is probably valued at the same price so it’s an even promo although I would’ve preferred something tangible.

Thanks to Jesse for clearing this up.

LEGO BrickHeadz Valentine’s Bee (40270) Revealed

December 11, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Remember the buildable characters that we had for the LEGO Seasonal sets in the past couple of years? It looks like the Seasonal sets are now expanding to the LEGO BrickHeadz line. LEGO has uploaded the first one in the series with the Valentine’s Bee (40270). It has 140 pieces and will most likely retail for $9.99 like before. In addition to the bee, there’s also some roses as supplementary builds as well.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Available in Europe Shop@Home

December 11, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

In an unexpected surprise, the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) is now available again on Shop@Home in Europe and Australia for VIPs. As of this writing, it is still available for purchase but you have to be signed in to your account. This is probably the last chance to get it this year and also score the exclusive black VIP card. There’s still no word on when the US will have it available again.

Every year we strive to innovate and make our products even better for children all over the world. A lot of effort has gone into the development of the LEGO characters and universes across our entire product range, so it makes us very happy when changes are noticed.

LEGO Friends in 2018 looks a bit different than what it has in the past. To be specific, the 5 main characters have a slightly different look but also the city and the citizens of Heartlake City have changed.

But what are the reasons for the change?

Firstly, we want to assure you that all 5 friends are still there in 2018.

Andrea, Mia, Emma, Stephanie and Olivia – they all still exist! Also the character’s main interests and personalities remain mainly unchanged.

What you will see in 2018 is an evolution of LEGO Friends, a progression of the story and characters to make sure children get an even greater play experience.

There is only a few short weeks left in the holiday shopping season and now is the perfect time to release my 2017 LEGO recommendations. These sets were all released this year and they are separated into various price groups so you can see what I would suggest as a last minute gift at a certain price.
