It’s not the Ulysses Space Probe but the LEGO Space Collectible Coin is now available on the Rewards Center. It is the fourth coin to be released and it costs 1,150 points to get it. The coin features the Classic Space logo on one side that LEGO VIP on the other. You’ll need to use the code within 60 days of redeeming it.

Earlier today, we got our first look at the upcoming LEGO Ulysses Space Probe that’s supposed to be available in the VIP Rewards Center for 1,800 points. It looks like it won’t be happening as it has been delayed for an unspecified amount of time due to “unexpected circumstances.” This news comes out of the LEGO Ambassador Network and it certainly puts a damper on the release of the LEGO NASA Shuttle Discovery (10283). Although you don’t need to purchase the set to get the Ulysses, it does go well with it. We’ll give an update as soon there is more information about the release.
Due to unexpected circumstances, there is a delay in the release of the space probe VIP reward. We do hope that it will be available soon. As soon as more information is available, we will make sure that we let all our fans know!
For those who get the newsletters, LEGO has revealed the exclusive Ulysses Space Probe that will launch aside the LEGO NASA Space Shuttle Discovery (10283). This set isn’t your usual gift-with-purchase set but it will be available in the Rewards Center for 1,800 VIP points. The probe does come with its own display plaque as well.
Based on previous VIP reward items, stuff are usually added a little earlier so I suggest hitting up the Rewards Center a couple of hours ahead. I don’t expect the Ulysses Space Probe to be available for that long as there is a big demand for it based on early reactions.

It looks like we finally have the release dates for the three LEGO Minions: The Rise of Gru sets that we thought was going to release last year. LEGO has listed the release dates for these sets for April 26. We aren’t exactly sure why LEGO decided to release two sets last year and not the rest of them at the same time. The movie has recently been pushed back to July 1, 2022.
