LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod

For those who missed out on the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) a few weeks ago, you’re in luck because LEGO has brought it back on Shop@Home. The promotion is the same as before as you have to spend $60 or more and the offer will run until June 3.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) Promotion Coming Back in April

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376)

Back in December right when the promotion for the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) was about to begin, LEGO announced that it would be cancelled due to part of it not meeting quality standards. Fast forward a few months and it looks like LEGO has fixed whatever issue it had and the promotion will be back on from April 13 – May 3. The promo will be similar to before where you have to spend $60 or more on a LEGO Star Wars purchase. The only difference is that the promotional period is shorter and will end right before the May the 4th promo begins. I know there’s a specific niche of collectors who like these pod type sets and will be glad to know that the Darth Vader Pod wasn’t completely cancelled, just delayed.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod Promo Clarification

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod

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 Darth Vader Pod (5005376) Promotion Cancelled

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod

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 Darth Vader Pod (5005376) Revealed

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod

Yesterday I reported on the December 2017 LEGO Store Calendar and probably the most interesting promotion for the month is the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376). It will be available from December 15 – January 14, 2018 with a LEGO Star Wars purchase of $60 or more, while supplies last.

The Darth Vader Pod continues the series of pods that have been released or will be released this year including the Batman Battle Pod (4929), Nexo Knights Armor Pod (5004914), The LEGO Ninjago Movie Kai’s Dojo Pod (5004916), and Friends Ski Pod (5004920). The latter two Pods are available at Toys R Us. Unlike the other pods in which you can purchase individually, the Darth Vader Pod most likely won’t be unless Toys R Us carries it late next year.
