Frank Brickowski Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 The following 4 promotional sets are going to be available at least in Germany in July & August when buying qualifying products: LEGO CREATOR MINI Cooper Polybag (40109) - VIP only with orders of the big Mini from 18th to 31th July & 1st to 31st August for everyone buying products for at least 55 Euros LEGO CREATOR Classic Spaceman Minifigure (5002812) - VIP only from 1st to 7th July when buying products for at least 30 Euros LEGO CHIMA Frax' Phoenix Flyer (30264) (1st to 16th July) and LEGO CHIMA Worriz' Fire Bike (30265) (17th to 31st July), each when buying products for at least 30 Euros What do you think especially of the Classic Space promo set? Does it have a special value for colletors because of the packaging and the little poster (or even the figure itself?)? Or is that too little to let it take off into open space investment-wise? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comicblast Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 nice Very nice. This is a lot like the VW T1 Campter promo polybag last year. If one bought the correct amount of sets, they were able to get 3 promo polybags: Hotdog Stand, T1 Camper, and Employee minifigure. I like the classic space minifigure, and I think it will do well because all of the "classic" LEGO themes have large following, since most AFOL's had them as kids, plus it is only going to be available for a week, which is much shorter than other promotionals, which last anywhere between a few weeks to a month. Thanks for sharing. I hope we get something similar in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Just give me the Classic Spacemen pack and I'd be content as a pig in slop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Brickowski Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Does the packaging + mini-poster add any value (or collector's value) to the Spaceman pack? I mean, getting an old Space figure (you might already have in you collection) from a NEW production plus a fancy package + mini-poster -> do collector's appreciate this in any way or do they not really need something like that? I don't really come to an conclustion myself because if cannot relate to those old Space sets and figures, having none of them. Is anyone keen on a new production of old-looking figures, I dunno...

Frank Brickowski Posted June 21, 2014 Author Share Posted June 21, 2014 Just give me the Classic Spacemen pack and I'd be content as a pig in slop. What do you find cool about this set exactly? What aspect of it makes you want it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 The little Cooper looks so very tiny! Haha, I want one just to display with the full sized model to make it look even bigger. Also, is that a minifigure set? Anything Space is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrikdejager Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Those are looking great! I'm not a huge fan of buying from LEGO Shop at Home just for these promotional sets because sets on LEGO Shop at Home are so exspensive compared to other stores. Where do you guys buy these kind of sets? And if you get them with LEGO Shop at Home purchases, what would you buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 What do you find cool about this set exactly? What aspect of it makes you want it?I just like Classic Space minifigures and the set looks like a nice little reminder harkening back to those days of simple space travel. There also appears to be a little booklet displaying characters from the various themes over the years of Space although I can't really tell much by the images. I don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biniou Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Indeed the space minifig comes with a booklet inside the box. "Also included in this limited edition set is a booklet charting the progress of the Space minifigure since 1976, featuring fun pictures of some of the classic sets from the golden age of the LEGO Space theme!" It's avalaible only in europe, and only for 1 week. I just bought some stuff on LEGO Shop at Home only to get that box (too bad the ecto-1 isn't available right now). I think this tiny little box is under the radar and will have some very spatial value, very quickly. If I'm wrong, beam me up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendrikdejager Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I have no idea what a good purchase is to get the Space Figure, anyone have a tip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biniou Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 If the ecto-1 is available in your country (I think it will not), go for it (just add a little set or use pick a brick to get free shipping). If not, I don't know... For the US members, here is an add I received by mail. I think it's the "booklet", which is in fact a poster.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 The Mini & Spaceman are good but, I'll just chuck Chima in the garbage as they are worse than that crappy Galaxy Mech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romario Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 The D2C RETRO MINIFIGURES PROMO BANNER got removed from the promotion teaser banner today but still will be added to the basket for vip customers. It seems they run out of stock since it got removed from the teaser promotion at the main page. Here is a link to the set: http://shop.lego.com/de-AT/D2C-Minifiguren-Retro-Set-2014-5002812 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
