Got in the door from the airport tonight and this was waiting for me... I officially have the best wife ever. I can't believe she went to the store for opening and then dragged this beast through

Well after getting through all 8 films and trying to work out which was the bigger mistake in the prequel films Jar-Jar or Hayden Christensens wooden acting, I finally finished the mighty Falcon.

Completed and mounted.  Cannon alternates top/bottom lights. Happy to answer any questions or take different pictures if asked.

Apparently you should receive an email when you’re black VIP card has been dispatched.

Apparently!! Says the lady at Lego customer support today.

Apparently it takes 19 days to go from tim buck to, to Florida.  Don't believe the emails lies!  Not even snail mail is that slow.

I understand that the benefits don't kick in until January, but I also find it pretty ridiculous, that they always seem to have to keep back tracking on promises.  It's been roughly 11 weeks since the release, and these cards were supposed to be out within 6 weeks.  They are already 5 weeks overdue for printing these cards.  No matter how you cut it, it's absolutely bullshit that Lego can't keep their promise on this stuff.  I don't know what in the world is going on, but this kind of stuff should not really be tolerated by Lego.

No VIP card for me, but I did get the call from my local Lego shop today.  Stopped by after work and finally got to purchase my first 75192!

You won't get the card till you purchase.

RE: VIP

Hi, I received an e-mail stating the card has shipped and would arrive by end of Nov.  Is my card lost in the mail or is there a delay? 

Response:

I have great news that your card was not lost in the mail; but since your order for it was placed after 11/02/2017, you will not receive it until 12/24/2017.

Whatever.

FWIW, I ordered first day and still don't have my card.  I understand why people want it, but it doesn't "unlock" anything that your normal VIP wouldn't.

Umm... Assuming you imply normal VIP membership and not the "normal card"... You are signed up for a Star Wars VIP program that entitles you to unique promos/gifts/discounts.  But this "program" is linked to your VIP number which is identical on the printed Black VIP card.  So with or without the card, you will get its benefits.

In othernews, I posted this on reddit, a lot of salty folk who still can't get a Falcon.  And a lot of folk who don't hold companies to their words.

Let me clarify, I'm assuming the person purchased the 75192 set from SAH or Lego Store.  What I'm saying is having the physcial card doesn't unlock anything that your VIP number wouldn't.

I don’t think the reddit people have checked eBay or Craigslist....

Right, but what winder00side is saying is that whether or not you physically have the black card in your possession does not exclude you from those events, so long as your VIP account says you are eligible.

i.e. you walk into the store, say your info without pulling out a card, the employees check and see your account is eligible, you get the promo.

Also got mine through the post today. No point showing a photo as it's the same as everyone else's (apart from the name printed on it!).
[uK resident, ordered my Falcon on day 1]

Was in London last week and popped into the shop on the off chance of them having one. Missed it by 2hrs.
