Interesting that the Gunship remains "Sold Out" ahead of being featured as a sale item. I don't like how they do the code required to obtain the sale price as it blocks you from redeeming a GWP code when they finally will have something worthwhile.

I called Lego to try to get clarification on how the codes would work and all they would say was check the email we sent you.  Which is a carbon copy of what the main page of the website looks like right now.

Why are there penises hanging from the market stall???

I think the real question here is why you would even ask this question.  What kind of redneck backwater do you live in that penises hanging winter market stalls isn't par for the course?

YMMV: I became eligible for the World of Wonders set for a second time today after having redeemed it when it originally came out. 

thanks for the note.  it is available for me too.  ok trying to figure appreciate anyone's input @Pseudoty tape player = 2400 points, tin ornament = 1800 points, world of wonders = 2700 points.  I'm buying more but assume I only have 5100 points right now.  would you get the tape player and world of wonders over the tin ornament if you already have a world of wonders or would you get the tape player and tin ornament.  I'm a bit torn on which to pick.  Guessing they don't have a ton of world of wonders left but no idea. trying to figure if I should redeem world of wonders now or risk it to see what else they have and what is discounted or if any vip savings coupon $ (doubt it) like in the past.  appreciate thoughts.

The tape player may have some immediate appeal and then lose interest quickly like camera. Likely a yellow box promo. World of wonders to me is the only interesting one but still nobody wants it.

well cheapest camera is 43 and cheapest world of wonders is 39 so both doing decent : )

guessing both better than tin ornament ? Watch me skip the ornament and it ends up being the most valuable

Hold for now given @BricksBrotha post about a potential 50% off point redemption fire sale.

World of Wonders can be had for cheap on BL. It is a nice set in a real box but if points are limited and you already have one I would pass. I would estimate how much you plan on spending during 2X VIP and make sure you leave enough points to get the castle if and when it pops up.

Excellent point much appreciated.   Castle preplanning is a smart move

This is nuts.  I'm assuming Lego Insiders is still down for everyone else?  I've not been able to access anything there the entire day.  So much for stuff going live on the 17th.

It was up for a little while earlier today as I was able to get codes and get an order in.  By the time I let some friends know that the site was up, it was already down again.  I had been refreshing pretty religiously over the morning, so I'm guessing that once I noticed it was up, it probably was only up for a half hour or so.
