Crzypengu Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I hope we get more sets with Porgs in the future. I would like to get the Porg heads as cheap as possible in order to build an army. It would also be cool if LEGO produced a UCS Porg set which for sure will never happen. Also this is the 1000th post on this thread so I guess there is that also. Quote
Crzypengu Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I also just found this website where they custom made coffee tables for the Millennium Falcon. The cost is way too steep for me though. http://tayloredbypaul.com/falcon-table/ Quote
karmajay Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I got mine this week as well! Looks cool! Quote
Brikkyy13 Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Black VIP card finally came for me! Other Aussies yours should be coming soon! Quote
OCD_Chad Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 My card showed up yesterday. I'm in Texas. Quote

I too am still waiting on the black VIP card to arrive. I just emailed Lego Customer Service asking about it today. If I get a reply, or my card shows up, I'll try to remember to post a note here. Still waiting on mine, but I did get a reply from Customer Service: Quote Thanks for getting in touch with us about you VIP black card. We are sorry for the delay we see that you haven't received the card. We have sent it out and you should receive card between now and February. I got that email January 6th and I'm not certain what to make of it. If they have sent it out, actually mailed it, couldn't they have given me the date it was mailed? And the time period of "between now and February" seems unusually large for something that may already be in the mail. I'm not overly worried... I suspect that it will show up any day now. Just seemed like an odd way to state things, as maybe sent it out simply meant that its been sent for processing and that it hasn't been mailed yet. I'm in Malta, New York just for reverence. Anyone have any ideas when the first exclusive deal for Black VIP Card holders is expected to pop up? Carl Edited January 9, 2018 by wwwmwww Quote

Martinouchou Posted January 9, 2018 Posted January 9, 2018 (edited) It shows "sold-out" on the product page now. Not "Temporarily out of stock". Does this mean LEGO won't be selling any more copies through their web shop now ? Edited January 9, 2018 by Martinouchou Quote
Sucram Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Apparently the Falcons going to be stocked in Myer now. Quote

Robianco Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 It does seem odd to list it as sold out on the online store. It places it with the retired sets such as the UCS TIE, Rex’s AT-TE and the advent calendar on my browser. Quote
Brikkyy13 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 I've seen LEGO use "sold out" and "temporarily out of stock" interchangeably before. Don't worry, I'm guessing the Falcon will here to stay for a long time, much like the Death Star Quote
Joel1234 Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Is there any information on the Black VIP cards yet? What will be the exclusive reward? Early access to the new UCS set ? (Cloud City?); or a discount on new sets; Quote

I'm sure it's just a little disconcerting to anyone wanting one to see it listed with the retired sets. 53 minutes ago, Joel1234 said: Is there any information on the Black VIP cards yet?

Let’s hope it’s a bit more than that but, honestly, I doubt even the people who decide these things at TLG know what the offers will be yet. I’m guessing May 4th promotional period will be the main one. Or maybe when the Solo sets are released black VIP members will get ‘exclusive’ access to a post Han-modified Kessel Run Falcon. Quote
Sid Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Got my black VIP card a couple of days ago. Finally. I picked up the Falcon the day after release in store (got lucky). Waiting for these promotions now. Although the end of Jan promotional set looks like a must get (with ~$125 purchase or so). I've been waiting to get the Extreme Adventure set and the Old Fishing Store.. plus not to mention the new SW technic figures. I'm still recovering from the $800. Edited January 11, 2018 by Sid Quote
roadstermatt Posted January 12, 2018 Posted January 12, 2018 any one had any indication as to the special deals this black card brings yet ? Quote

While I don't know the details, the card itself has nothing to do with it - since the black card has the exact same number your regular vip card has. I think buying the falcon alone will qualify you for whatever specials are coming up. Quote

Who is eligible for the LEGO® Star Wars™ VIP Card? All VIP Members that purchase the Millennium Falcon™ (75192), including members signing up for the first time. This includes all countries VIP operates in, including countries that don’t normally receive physical membership cards. For country list, please see VIP.LEGO.com/terms." taken from the TLG web site its just as yet I haven't seen anything on what it will offer and how it will work and just wondered if any one had Edited January 13, 2018 by roadstermatt Quote

I just want to clarify that the card itself it for looks / bragging. Purchasing the set alone will qualify you for whatever deals come up. I say this because I myself waited longer than usual for the card, and Lego explained that I would get the same deals with my original card. But you are correct, you must have purchased the set by the end of 2017. Edited January 13, 2018 by Sid Quote
step24 Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 Bit late to the party. based in UK. I've just send request for update on when this will be next available. What are my chances?! Quote
Whovastron Posted January 14, 2018 Posted January 14, 2018 If anyone has any problems with their special VIP card, a quick email and they’ll replace it! mine had half my name scratched off, and customer service said I will have a new one by March so that’s awesome. I can use he damaged one in my wallet and keep the perfect one for display with my falcon or something :D Quote
Tavis75 Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Falcon looks to be currently in stock on the UK website. Quote
