I don't know what sets will be on sale...but I do know that the promotions will be the same in store as well as online.

Interesting that they call it a "first edition" Millennium Falcon. Bummed that the $75 threshold for the ARF trooper is only for Star Wars merchandise. I was hoping to get the Maersk train, and use that to get the ARF.

They probably mean the first run, the ones that came with the certificate.

Ah, thanks. Also - weird to me that a year ago the Falcon was available for $375, and now it regularly sells for $1,100+ on eBay. Falcon bubble?

I would love a chance to buy the falcon at MSRP let alone a chance to win one, It would look sooo good next to my Imperial Shuttle. Sales wise I hope the Tantive is one of the sets, would not mind picking that up a little cheaper.

I completely agree Shij. I want me a MF but refuse to pay the ridiculous Ebay prices. So one day I'll have one.

The Tantive is one of the SW sets I rarely see a sale on. I saw one during Christmas, and another one for a few hours, but that was about it. This is one of the few sets I don't have in the current available SW sets and would love to finally scratch it off. I wouldn't mind picking up a discounted Death Star and Imperial Shuttle as well.
I have mixed feelings about new releases: I can't wait to see and get the new sets... but I can't figure out where I'm gonna put them or store them.

But the eBay prices will only get ridiculous...er. Unless LEGO reissues the set (what a treat that would be), those of us that missed it are out of luck. (Stupid dark ages.)

I've had my cart filled with some exclusives since Christmas, and free shipping is just what I need to pull the trigger. In a couple weeks time, I do believe I shall finally have my Maersk duo.

I will not own one unless one of three things happens, 1) I win this one, 2) It is reissued, or 3) I win the lottery.
:)
On the subject of the imperial shuttle I highly recommend it despite the high price. Having said that i only got it since i asked EVERY one in my family for lego gift cards for Xmas. The build was long and tedius, but looks amazing when done.

Tantives were selling for 100 bux on amazon during christmas, so if they do go on sale, I hope Lego beats amazon prices.

Quig I agree. My only 'respite' is that Lego is putting out another MF set this year, which ultimately should lead to other MF sets leveling off in price if not comming down a little bit. (More alternatives = lower price because only Collectors and people who want THAT specific set will be after them instead of all SW / MF lovers too). At least that is my theory and Im stickin to it. =)

Thanks. I saw the action to add the ARF and get free shipping. Went all the way through the checkout process and it appears to have still charged me for shipping. Either it's not fully "available" yet, and the action is on there prematurely, or the shipping will be taken off later. I don't recall how this normally happens with free shipping. I'll be calling them later today to confirm my order.

If it is showing up at checkout they should have to honor it. I would definitely call them.

Agreed. I took a screenshot.

What time to these promotions usually start? And by what time zone?

I mean, should I be at my computer at midnight tonight to get this deal? (I'm in the central time zone)
