Unfortunately, the link to the PDF version of the calendar, which always includes the back, is broken on their site and hasn't been fixed as of yet.
Thanks, so it's a true mystery :)

Re: Star Wars The Force Friday: September 4th, 2015 (Free LE

I got a tru email for San Diego and it made no mention of a brick, just a poster and activities for kids ages 6 and up so i didn't bother as i figured it was for kids older than my kids.

Re: Double VIP Points October 1-4 only

Well now this is something I can help with. I live close to LL Florida, and have an annual pass. The AP provides 10% off EVERYTHING. BUT, as someone as already pointed out - points are not earned and can not be used at LL. It has to do with Merlin being a part owner. I also have a Disney AP and liv...

Is this legoland card a passholder discount? I thought the legoland store didn't do vip points. Or is this another passholder perk i don't know about? :)

Re: Double VIP Points October 1-4 only

Thanks grommom. I didn't understand what ebates was until now. Anything less than 5% wasn't worth my time to find out about. Looks like discover deals used to be called shop discover. They were doing 5% last year and then Lego decided not to participate at the end of the year, but now are back in a...

Re: Double VIP Points October 1-4 only

I've used it twice, if you go to the discover site there's a section called discover deals. It's like ebates in that you go to that page and click shop now and it tracks what you have spent on that transaction. You may only be able to search if you have a card and an account. I actually have to use ...

Re: DC Superheroes Comic Book

Love this! My Mystery Machine (for my son) that was on back order finally came today. I just opened the box and it had the same comic in the box! I haven't read it it yet. I really like the thicker paper quality of the front and back cover. I love the superman poster. I may have to find a frame to ...

I've used this but you need to go to the "Discover Deals" and search for the offer under toys and navigate through...just buying with the Discover card at checkout isn't enough.

DC Superheroes Comic Book

I just received an order with this comic book inside. I thought it was very well done, really much nicer than an average comic book, more along the quality of a nice graphic novel. I'm just wondering how I was so lucky to receive this? I know it's an ad of sorts for their video game, and sets, but I...

I just need my mansion to come in from my s@h order, it said it shipped and i already got my pirate bonus :) That's supposed to be a Christmas gift but m...

Wow, was just reading this thread, thinking of things I do and this is one of them.... They're not perfect because I am self taught buy I've made small Roosevelt Franklin and mahna mahna and a life sized cookie monster.

Re: For fun... top 3 animal suit minifigs desired

Maybe a bear guy? Winnie the pooh was always around bees :) That'd be a neat minifig. Agreed that it should be completely different from the panda. A kangaroo or donkey would be a lot of fun as well (maybe the mention of Winnie the Pooh triggered those ideas...) They should just make Winnie the Poo...

Ooh a boxing kangaroo would be cool, and if you could remove the gloves it could be a kangaroo :)
