superheat Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I received my Black VIP card sometime around the begging of April. Ordered my UCS MF just before Christmas. I think it would be better off as VEP, very embarrassed person, for falling for the hype. I would be embarrassed to show the black card at the Lego store. Maybe VGP, very gullible person. Definitely VDP, very disappointed person. Now I'm wondering how long until I get a letter in the mail about the a class action lawsuit regarding the VIP card. Ha.

Val-E Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Ok, hot off the press from Hoth Bricks, it seems the first VIP promo is an A4 diagram of the UCS Y-Wing similar to the one below. https://www.hothbricks.com/detenteurs-de-la-carte-lego-vip-noire-voici-la-prochaine-offre-prevue/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackcwang Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Not really "exclusive" since others can also get it for some minimum star wars spend. Still cool though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, you get 30 euros worth back on your 800 dropped on the Falcon! Or another, bigger, useless piece of paper for the haters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, when you take the time to ask yourself 5 minutes and think about all this, I can not understand how human beings can become so judgmental about themselves by offering this type of compensation to their clients disbursing the tidy sum of 800 €. How can one have a self-esteem by trying miserably to pigeon his clients so much? I had a long time in the trade cycle and to make a quick comparison, it's like I offered a small patch to thank the guy who takes me a bike to 800 balls ... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job Lego. I'd have zero use for this. No different than those free posters you get when you go to a movie premiere. Doubt it'll even sell on eBay.

Well, it doesn’t improve it much, but the article does mention that the photo isn’t the actual promo item, but rather a similar thing, the promo item would be “LEGOfied”.

So a UCS blueprint. Lol. Mmmaaaaybbbbeee if it's a actual set that is a blueprint I suppose that'd be cool. But, if I'm understanding correctly this isn't even Exclusive to set owners? I suppose the reality is that they wouldn't produce expensive items that practically negate the cost of your Falcon by which eventually they've made "nothing" as far as profit goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KShine Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) "it is said that Black Card holders can get it without a minimum purchase while non-card holders can get it with a minimum purchase". So, it looks as if the special people will be able to get a free poster for free. Edited April 30, 2018 by KShine 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exracer327 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Ok, so if this is real, how do black vip's get it? As stated above, it appears that it is free. But are we being sent it "For free" or do we need to request it? Idk, I'm a little confused because according to the article, everyone can get it with a Star Wars purchase of 30 eruos. So how is this an "exclusive"? Don't get me wrong, it would be kind of cool to have it next to an UCS Y-Wing but I don't see the purpose of it otherwise.

Klownicle Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 If this is the May 4th promo, and this is what one might consider the biggest star wars day. And this is what they give us. I'm just giving up now. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
