Damn. So tempted.
Is it only available via Lego?
Please excuse the noob questions folks, what are the VIP points used for exactly? How do they translate points into pounds?

 

[steve5424]

I think as it only launched today its Lego stores and .com only.

VIP earns you 8 points for every £1 spent

800 points will get you £5 off. 3200 points gets you a £20 off voucher. You log in to your VIP account and select what to use the points for. There are other things you can spend the points on like digital wallpapers and prize draws etc. Next weekend is double points too.

 

[Cavallino]

Ah sweet, thanks steve.
Double points as in... 16 points for each £1 spent?

 

[steve5424]

Indeed. Lego.com has a section on VIP with faqs if you want better details.

Yep, reading up now, thanks bud.

Double VIP points next weekend IIRC.

 

[Cosimo]

Much much bigger. Think its 12 or so inches long

I'll be getting one but not till Christmas.

It's big at 18" long. My order went in today.

Bugatti Chiron is £199 on Amazon, seems a good price? From £329... Tempting...

Just ordered the new Ghostbusters Ecto-1 too

 

[Cavallino]

Why order it now bud? You can get it with double points this weekend I think?

Yes, doubt its going to get lower now.Will EOL before it gets much cheaper tbh.
I got it a few months backs for about 20 more. I like the end product, but the build sucks. I think even the star destroyer is more enjoyable and thats saying something!

 

[Cavallino]

I heard the gear shifting in the Bugatti is a bit hit and miss?

It will likely drop more on Amazon it was at £189 last year a couple of weeks before Black Friday it then went back up before dropping to £175 on Black Friday.

Folks, when does the double points and free harry potter set start?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

It’s not a Harry Potter set but 00:00 on Saturday (Friday night).

It’s Charles Dickens- A Christmas Carol

Hopefully stock shouldn’t be an issue as it’s the Black Friday GWP too. There may be another bite of the cheery in a week.

Ah sorry got it mixed up If I made two orders of over £150 would I get two of them or is it one regardless?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

I think so but don’t quote me on that. there is something else if you spend over £200 too.

 

[steve5424]

The first light kit for the new Ecto-1.

 

[Cavallino]

Wewt. Ordered 2 X Ecto 1 and got the freebies and 5760 points!
What does that equate to ?

 

[b0rn2sk8]

Just ordered the Elf clubhouse, the Batwing and a keyring. Double VIP points, 2.4% cashback via Quidco and two GWP, can't complain...

for reference 800 pints = £5.
