LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod Promo Clarification

December 11, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

As you may or may not have known by now, the upcoming promotion for the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) has been officially cancelled. I’ve gotten some clearer information about what will be replacing it for customers here in the US. They are as follows:

– In US and Canada, we will be offering 100 bonus VIP points on all Star Wars sets purchased through LEGO Brand Retail stores or on shop.LEGO.com

– The promotion is only valid on LEGO Star Wars sets and excludes items from our extended line such as keychains, magnets, books, etc.

– Offer is valid December 15th-24th

– Europe is running a 10% discount on Star Wars sets (excluding the UCS Falcon) during the same time.

The cancellation of the Darth Vader Pod is a bummer since fans have been waiting for it to complete their collection of Pods that have been released this year. The 100 VIP bonus point is basically a $5 discount and is probably valued at the same price so it’s an even promo although I would’ve preferred something tangible.

Thanks to Jesse for clearing this up.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Available in Europe Shop@Home

December 11, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

In an unexpected surprise, the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) is now available again on Shop@Home in Europe and Australia for VIPs. As of this writing, it is still available for purchase but you have to be signed in to your account. This is probably the last chance to get it this year and also score the exclusive black VIP card. There’s still no word on when the US will have it available again.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) Promotion Cancelled

December 7, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

For those who have been for the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) that’s supposed to come out later this month as a promotion, I’m sorry to say that the product has been cancelled. I’ve known this information for a few days now but LEGO has released an official statement of why the promo will not be happening.

Star Wars Pod No. 5005376

We have to inform that as part of our internal quality screening process, we have found that the Star Wars Metalized Pod 5005376 does not meet our strict standards. As you know, we take the quality and safety of our products extremely seriously, and so out of an abundance of caution we have decided not to launch the Star Wars Pod.

We are committed to continuing support for our Star Wars promotion, and will offer consumers 10% off across all LEGO® Star Wars products from 18th – 24th December 2017, excluding the Millennium Falcon product (75192).

LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz Darth Vader Coming in 2018

November 25, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

The LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz Rey & Kylo Ren (41489) is now available and inside is a teaser of another upcoming Star Wars BrickHeadz. Shown on the insert is the blank BrickHeadz but the shadow behind it shows Darth Vader that is coming in 2018. Hopefully the helmet is done in a more eye-pleasing way and not like Captain Phasma.

World of Games has posted set listings and official images of the 2018 LEGO Star Wars sets which is probably the most anticipated theme. The Microfighters are returning and there’s some new two packs for them. Also coming back are the Buildable Figures which look very nice. The main thing in this wave are the Star Wars: The Last Jedi sets so read on if you’re not afraid of spoilers read on but I’ll hide the images behind the spoiler tag just to be safe.
