Val-E Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Part 2: I don´t like surprises, especially if they are early releases of remakes. Edited November 1, 2017 by Val-E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shewie Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Those seasonal freebies are nowhere near the quality of Snowglobe, Gingerbread and other earlier incarnations. This Christmas Ornament is such a let down They could do much better than that. Probably Snowglobe because of that will jump on custmomer attention trails.

TRU UK were offering that Christmas ornament free with £25 spend or £4.99 straight up very poor giveaway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Christmas Ornament is such a let down They could do much better than that. Probably Snowglobe because of that will jump on custmomer attention trails. There are usually a few freebies a year. This smaller ornament is in the line of a series that has been done for years now. They also do those advent calendars that generate some interest, but not as much as the yearly seasonal promo. The snowglobe you mention was last years seasonal promo, while this year is a weird looking nut cracker. 2015 was an awesome one with a holiday train one week, and a gingerbread house on black friday. They are still doing those, it's just the nutcracker this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 I´d rather not have the bus come back to Europe - ever. 20% off on sets will be good for last minute EOL snagging but our 2xVIP is too late for stuff to arrive for Xmas - seems more like a way to retire a few sets before having to reduce them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacsniper Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Seriously? London Bus again? As much as it is a freebie, but you telling me TLG don't have enough designers to come up with something as good as the Holiday Train, Gingerbread House or Snowglobe? TLG is going down the drain really fast with re-release of iconic sets and freebies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oh wait we just realized we have 10.000 boxes in our US warehouse which we need to get rid of asap to make space for another freebies" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrToes16 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Any expectations of other freebies that I expect to see a return appearance in the coming year? My guess: Krypto Saves the Day polybag City Police Helicopter polybag Minifigure Travel Pack Build to Learn pack Milano polybag...maybe?

Val-E Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 1 hour ago, gregpj said: I totally read that as Colonel Sanders the first time. The original quick flip story. Sanders Sold KFC for 2m Dollars and the company who bought it from him sold it on for almost 300, just 6 years later. If he had invested in Lego, it would have been all in on Joker Steamrollers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
