LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) Minifigure Polybag Review

November 2, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

Toys R Us has finally started their promotion for the free LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag. You can get it with purchases of LEGO Star Wars purchases of $40 or more. If you’re lucky, you can purchase it for $3.99 each.

The polybag features C-3PO 30 years after Return of the Jedi. Although the image shown on the polybag makes him look metallic, C-3PO is actually the flat pearl-gold color we’ve seen before. He does have some new side arm printing as well as on the legs. The most notable difference is the red arm that he currently has which also has some arm printing. There’s no word yet on how he got the arm but there will be a special one-shot from Marvel in December that will reveal what happened.

Again, LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag is currently free with purchases at Toys R Us. As far as I know, the stores in the San Diego area had around 200 each when I last checked on Saturday. Any that are left over after the promo, can be purchased normally. I would like to give a special thanks to fellow reader Daniel who sent this polybag in.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) Polybag

The LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag promotion is now live at Toys R Us stores. You can get it free with purchases of $40 or more with any LEGO Star Wars purchase of $40 or more. If you have trouble finding it in stores, check with the cashier or at guest service as they might have them hidden behind the counter and give them the item number 169326.

I did a check at work to see how many are around San Diego and most stores have around 200 in stock. Depending on how nice the employees are at TRU, you may be able to purchase one separately for $3.99 each. If not, just wait until the promotion ends next week and they’ll just sell them regularly.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) Toys R Us Promo Starts November 1

October 24, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The Toys R Us holiday book is showing up in mailboxes now and in the LEGO section of the book, it shows the promotion for the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) here in the US. The minifigure polybag is free starting on November 1 with LEGO Star Wars purchases of $40 or more.

As we know by now, they are already available for $3.99 each at various locations. Some stores, like mine, are sticking to the street date rather than selling them early even though they have them in stock. Once the promo ends, they can pretty much be purchased for $3.99 if there are any left over by then. If you’re actively looking for them, the TRU item number is 169326.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) Showing Up at Toys R Us

October 22, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

If you have a Toys R Us nearby, you may want to check it because the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag is now on the sales floor. Apparently, they’re selling for $3.99 each but I’ve heard that it was part of a promotion either in November or December. Like with other minifigure polybags, you might need a manager to override the hold as they’re supposed to be part of a future promotion. The item number 169326. Good luck on your search.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) Minifigure Polybag

September 4, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 11 Comments

It was revealed a few a while back but there will be a polybag associated with Star Wars: The Force Awakens which is a C-3PO (5002948) minifigure polybag. As you can see, this version of C-3PO is a little different from the usual versions we’ve seen since has a red arm for some reason which will be revealed in the movie this December.

There are two different offers for the polybag in the US as far as I know. One is a LEGOLAND Florida special offer where purchases of $35 or more from September 7 to September 28 will net you on of these polybags. The other offer hasn’t been officially announced yet but I heard that it will be available at Toys R Us with a certain purchase amount in November. Check out a short review of it from PromoBricks below.
