Val-E Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Calm before the Star Wars and Jurassic storms. No VIP early access, so I guess the next exclusive will be the UCS Y Wing on 4th May. 1 Quote
thedingman5 Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 Another nice Anniversary VIP set - 40th Anniversary of the Minifigure!!! Reasonable minimum of $75! Quote

The mini minifigs (statuettes) look like they're printed .. Those are pretty uncommon (though not expensive except the ironman one) so I could see those being 'desirable' enough to make the promo valuable out of the gate. 2 Quote

Val-E Posted March 1, 2018 Author Posted March 1, 2018 Hey, Vader´s pod is finally getting a release. Wasn´t it supposed to come out in December and they cancelled it? I guess they are stackable promos. Quote

Shewie Posted March 1, 2018 Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) So no Vader Pod's for Europe? Last year you could get Kai Dojo Pod with ANY purchase of Ninjago. You could divide it in to 20 seperated transactions (in Store) for example Ninjago Minifigures Series for 2.99 each to get 20x Dojo Pods for free, now you have to pay at least 35EUR for inferior item.

Val-E Posted March 1, 2018 Author Posted March 1, 2018 I guess it will show up here eventually. Maybe they are keeping it back for May in case Solo set sales bomb. Quote

I admit, that is what I saw and liked :). Upon a closer glance it does look like cardboard, a la the caveman, easter bunny, etc. BUT, if this unfolds to a diorama-type display, with a build housed inside its more palatable (to me). Quote
Brian Briggs Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 The minifigure factory set is a must-have for me with those printed microfigures. One of them looks like a classic spaceman. 1 Quote
fossilrock Posted March 2, 2018 Posted March 2, 2018 Good to see the Darth Vader promo coming back. Quote
Val-E Posted March 30, 2018 Author Posted March 30, 2018 Updated with actual release dates. Expensive month for some. Quote
