Just saw this:

 

Wondering if the Insider Castle was a local return or shipped direct to the store by LEGO? Mine came damaged and they told me to keep it along with some points.

They are shipped directly to store.  Returns they do not stock are typically displayed at the cashier counters.

I'm guessing that it will go live with double vip at midnight but who knows

also rak u ten has 10% cash back on non exclusive right now wondering if that will hold

[tdw]

If I try to redeem the space adventure set I get an error message saying I'm already reached the limit.  Has anyone been able to successfully redeem a 2nd set?

Per the BricK Fan the Target VIP receipt program that basically stopped working will be no more at the end of this month. 
 

Jules Verne is live but I’m waiting until the 28th for the double dip with the Fireworks GWP.

One of the rarest sets ever approximately only 200 to be made, your picture will be on the back of the box if you actually get to go on one of the 4 tours.

VIP early access ends on the 23rd then while supplies last until the 30th so there is possibly some overlap.

so your waiting for the double dip ? skipping the trophy ? you thinking they will have a ton that last till the overlap of Jules Verne ? know they had lots of Jane Goodall.   I wonder if they are cutting back on gwp production runs,  so are you willing to risk it running out and skipping or buying on ebay ? trying to decide what to do

It means he is not hot on the gwp but will go in if he can double dip.  Trophy requires City, Friends, etc . . .

In other news 40705 Ninjago City Micro Gardens pictures are out no date yet guess 7-1 but purely guess

No interest in the trophy but the build on JV looks good but will just get one off of eBay for under $30 in a month vs $150 buyin. Need the double dip or better to make Lego dot com prices worth it anymore.

Some past GWPs are starting to payoff, like 40486 Mini Adidas and 40448 Vintage Car.

I am actually headed to this tour in October, if all goes well, I will have (2) copies of this set and I only want one, so maybe if someone really wants one here we can work it out outside of eBay.

[starwarsxpress]

genuinely interested

is anyone here getting this book, has pre ordered it or will pay $150 for it once it is out ?

I think I read that they will have a cheaper version without the vault items of it available later or perhaps it won't : )

nothing about this that I can tell says it is limited.  is anyone concerned it will run out in the next few months ?

at that rate I'll give up my UCS Assault on Hoth and trade for the 4000031 J W T Rex that is selling for $10k now for anyone that wants to.  I wish I would have bought it when it was $750 : )
