$20 on joe vs dan Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 The issue I am seeing w/ LEGO is the high level decision making on subject matter. The execution is spot on and fantastic (ie the engineers and designers are clearly the best in their respective fields and uber talented)...but it's the decision making early on in the project that has me doubtful of competence. I mean MAYBE you can make a case for an UCS Luke Speeder...but C'mon...a kitchen scene! someone is being too cute ...or MEGA or Cobi has someone on the inside who's goal is to muck up LEGO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scratchdesk Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I saw somewhere on social media that the listing was posted in error and they would be revising it (according to some Lego CS rep). Probably was related to a prior promotion or event they had going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil B Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 The Cap on my order just went from "Waiting for new stock" to "In Warehouse". Not sure what that means, but I'm hoping it is "we got a cancellation and now we can send that cap to you" vs "we just received the Vistaprint order Exciter1 called in".… aaaaaand shipped. Are these $150 on Ebay yet? *smirk*Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudoty Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Not a reward but of interest, limit on the Elvis set in the USA was 5, but you need 6 to make all of the options. So someone tweeted at Lego and within a day they increased the limit from 5 to 6. Need to try this with Santa's Sleigh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad talked to Lego about getting his hats and they said it was a glitch in their system and that whoever redeemed their codes for the hats will be getting them as they get caught up but whoever requested a refund in their points will not be getting the hats anymore.

I did call CS and they indicated that it's accurate and no changes will be made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoTriathlete Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 This is probably old news but I've been trying to figure out what to buy for this May 4th promotion and it's pretty underwhelming... 46 sets on the "list" for double points but 40% are retired or unavailable which leaves only 27. None of the big ticket items are on this. Out of all the star wars sets showing online (not counting the retired ones), there are 48 sets, so almost half of them are not part of the promotion?? None of the helmets are even included or any of the over priced (IMO) dioramas... is Lego just getting really stingy to not want to offer double VIP pts on all Star Wars sets? Is this normal, I thought prior years had better double VIP selection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the list that had been shared earlier in this forum. Still, no big ticket items and still a bunch of sets missing including some of the helmets... for those interested looks like the following were added: 75322 Hoth™ AT-ST 75326 Boba Fett Throne room 75280 501st legion 75327 Skywalker helmet 75328 Mandolorian helmet 75343 Dark Trooper Helmet 75325 The Mandalorian's N-1 Starfighter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
