Ed Mack Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 How far in advance to lego release the sale items for last year's sale? A couple of days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justafrog Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Is May 4 the only "sale" day or are the sales the same throughout the event from the 3rd to the 5th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincevaughn Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 So does interest All it takes is somebody.randomly stumbling on it by searching lego han solo. Star Wars has been a powerhouse for how many decades? Overall, yes demand drops but it will always be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobbycrafter Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Someone on reddit received and (it looks like) scanned a May the 4th Flyer they got. http://imgur.com/a/VOD9m http://www.reddit.com/r/lego/comments/23wcye/found_this_in_my_mailbox_today_lego_sandcrawler/ Unlike abri123's posted flyer, none of these seem to say anything set about 15% off. It only says "Select LEGO Star Wars sets on sale!" instead. So there is hope for some larger discounts on some sets... I'm assuming that this is US, but it's not clear. I think this was mentioned before in a different flyer someone posted, but here's a comment from the reddit post anyway- "...but in europe the SSD is on sale, and red 5, r2, and some others, so hopefully similar deals" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justafrog Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Hobby, I just got that exact card in the mail today - no details, just what we know already. Hopefully we'll get the more detailed info a day or two early. Fortunately, I'm on a book buying run on the 3rd anyway, going past 3 LEGO stores during that day, so should be able to take advantage of whatever's going on sale-wise, if anything good.

I soooo wish I had a LEGO store even remotely close to me..... Looking forward to this sale. Was lurking last year for May 4th and yielded much knowledge and entertainment from the craziness that ensued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they add some bandwith in anticipation for this year craziness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Tilt Bricks Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 The SW sets out now aren't too interesting. I'll probably find enough to get a couple of the promo figs, but more for personal collection than re-sale. I'm not gonna stretch though. If I only get one that's fine too.

Pseudoty Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 USA teaser is up! http://shop.lego.com/en-US/star-wars-may-4?icmp=SHMain_TeaserM Nice find. Not even going to say what set is missing from the list of their favorite sets as this would be pure speculation. NMM you beat me to it.

No More Monkeys Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Was wondering what the VIP logo meant. Apparently, the preview itself is for VIPs only, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Kinda funny that umbaran MHC is in the list. From the other hand, not so good, since it might devalue even more those cheap Target's umbarans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Are we sure the "list" isn't just a general add for some star wars sets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Are we sure the "list" isn't just a general add for some star wars sets? Pure speculation. I would assume the list would be more random, if it was general ad. It is weird that new Sandcrawler is not mentioned anywhere in the promo teaser.

Darth_Raichu Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 15% off Malevolence (first one in the list of favorites )!! Yay!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 15% off Malevolence (first one in the list of favorites )!! Yay!!! They don't mention percentage, so, hopefully it would be 20%. From the other hand, last time discount were like 10%. I guess i would bite on a couple of red Fives, if they become B-wings of this year. But they could try to unload Malvolence with higher discount. Which would be sad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekgate502 Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Did you all notice this on the Lego Shop at Home terms for the Revan for the May 4th promotion? . One free item per household. Is that the same standard verbiage as last year or if we place multiple orders ship to home or multiple purchases at the store (myself, my wife, my kids) is that a new enforcement term and they are going to be limiting the Revan distribution? On the Umbaran MHC's, I've got my fill of those from Target at $16 or so each, so I'll pass on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it would save me time from putting in a million orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I stocked up quite well on the Martian Manhunter's, still have many to unload. Appreciate that confirmation, sounds like it should be plenty (for a short while)!

I could only find link to australian MM promo: http://shop.lego.com/en-AU/LEGO-Super-Heroes-Free-Gift says one per household this one might be screengrab of MM USA promo - https://www.patroneer.com/345256/lego/free-lego-martian-manhunter-minifigure also one per household.
