Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
I was just curious because of the wording of the vip email. It says star wars gifts and an instant VIP reward when you purchase the new R2. So, i wonder if the 3rd R2 item is that?
Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
I'm only getting the R2-D2 set to show up in my order. None of the other lines are showing up.
Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
Did you log into your VIP account before checking out or adding R2D2 to your cart? If not, it may not add the TC-14 or poster to your order!evo8hks wrote:I'm only getting the R2-D2 set to show up in my order. None of the other lines are showing up.

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
I got the email from LEGO this afternoon and thought it was stating VIPs could get early access to the free shipping and May the 4th bonuses:
Free shipping was applied, so I feel good about my chances of getting the silver bot...we'll see.
When I checked my cart (I already had R2 in there from yesterday), it wasn't showing the bonus figure, but it was showing free shipping. I tried removing, clicking on the link in the email and re-adding to my cart, but it still didn't show the bonus TC-14...I couldn't wait any longer, so I ordered up about 15 minutes ago. I have not received a confirmation email, but I'll post an update when I do.Use the force this May 4th and 5th and you'll receive some fantastic LEGO® Star Wars™ gifts plus free shipping when you spend $75 or more at a LEGO Store or via shop.LEGO.com.
You can qualify for these offers and also earn an instant VIP Reward when you purchase the brand new R2-D2 ™ Exclusive. This great addition to the LEGO Star Wars™ theme measures over 12 inches high by 7.1 inches wide and will keep even the most devoted young Jedi busy for hours… happy building!

Signed out, signed into my VIP account.
Added the UCS set.
Only free shipping applied. No poster, no mini-fig.
This isn't like the ARC trooper where you had to enter a promo code is it?

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
This is very confusing. I'm tempted to order the R2-D2 now. I want extra MiniFigs!!
Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
So yeah, from the email...

I'm intrigued by the "and also earn an instant VIP Reward" part. This implies that if you are a VIP and buy R2-D2 you get "these offers" (which equate to the TC-14, the poster and free shipping) plus some other "instant VIP Reward" that isn't identified.
Is anyone else reading it that way or is it just me?

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
I am unsure about the free shipping and when it is valid until but I do know what UCS is. UCS= Ultimate Collectors Series. You can see a list of the UCS sets LEGO has released in the past here: http://brickset.com/browse/themes/?them ... r%20Series" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;kuchiki wrote:Is May free shipping month?

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
Anyone knows if the same applies for the Lego @ Denmark/UK ?

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
Free shipping was scheduled for the "May the Fourth (be with you)" promo, but is live for orders over $75 right now:kuchiki wrote:Is May free shipping month? And sorry, what's UCS?
The promotion is suppose to run from May 4-5, but it appears that the free shipping offer at LEGO Shop at Home is now active. Spend $75 or more and your order will automatically qualify. Good time to pick up some LEGO Series 7 Minifigures! Thanks to forum member Muntz for the heads up. Order here: USA | Canada

Re: LEGOShop New Product Launch for May 2012
After talking with Lego, they really couldn't explain what that meant. They tried to say "well, you can instantly redeem a VIP reward on the order if you have > 100 points" and also "you will earn VIP points on the purchase." Both of those are not really answers, because both are true all the time for any order at any time. It's like saying "and you'll get your delivery in a box!"tensor wrote:So yeah, from the email...

Anyway, they aren't aware of any other "instant VIP reward" so it looks like it's just a matter of some mushy wording.
