The Yellow Brick Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Looks great, it's nice to see that it isn't just 1 theme like racers. Great to see a mix of themes

Shadows Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 *makes his obligatory post on the subject* If anyone happens to secure multiple sets and wishes to make one available to an appreciative member in the US, please PM me.
prozac Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 *makes his obligatory post on the subject* If anyone happens to secure multiple sets and wishes to make one available to an appreciative member in the US, please PM me. That mini sub is available here in the US at Target, I'd like to get that pirhanna though.
WhiteFang Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I am feeling very excited about this! *puts my name into the list like what Shadows did* Does anyone have the updated version of the exact giveaway like before, like the online version promo image? I will love to see that.
SilentMode Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Thanks for the find, I'm on it. Right now the lure of free Lego is worth buying the Mirror for.
Marckeyh Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) Thanks for the heads up. I found some shops are strict with the 'one item per customer' rule, wich is rather annoying when you buy more than one news papers. You've got to go to several shops. Edited October 17, 2010 by Marckeyh
escortmad79 Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) Which store's gonna stock them though? The Racers was Tesco, The Toy Story ones were WH Smiths so who this time? Edited October 17, 2010 by escortmad79
Marckeyh Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Which store's gonna stock them though? The Racers was Tesco, The Toy Story ones were WH Smiths so who this time? I had a look at the daily mirror website, but it doesn't state what shops will supply the lego. I hope tesco and TRU, they're both on my way to work.
Darth Jar Jar Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 These are great saw them on brickset I will buy at least ten off each (Usually they don't take out the coupon so double that ) I think the box the kids holding will be the tenth item

Eskallon Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 I am not interested in many of these, so I might get one or two. I found some shops are strict with the 'one item per customer' rule, wich is rather annoying when you buy more than one news papers. You've got to go to several shops. If you buy the newspaper and ask for the toy at the same time they will probably say yes seen as if they don't you're gonna put down 7 papers. Also when doing this, most the time they won't take the voucher as they can't be bothered for you to wait to take out them from multiple newspapers. You can therefore send in someone else to collect another load after you take out the vouchers.
charlieboy Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Great news,i work next to my local Toys R Us,they ususally do these.Hasnt the Atlantis sub already been sold as a promotional set,im sure i bought it in Tescos a few months back. There's only really that one that interests me this time but they'll make excellent stocking fillers for my son at christmas
prateek Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Wow. I can't see a set that sucks. Lucky Brits.
The Soup Nazi Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 (edited) Wow. I can't see a set that sucks. Lucky Brits. And that sums it up why I hate the newspapers in the USA Edited October 17, 2010 by The Soup Nazi

WhiteFang Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Is there anymore information with regards to the distribution methods and the daily releases?
Darth Jar Jar Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Is there anymore information with regards to the distribution methods and the daily releases? Not that I know off but if I see any I will post here
SlyOwl Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 If the collect-vouchers-and-send-them-off thing is in a similar vein to previous promotional offers from the Daily Mirror, I might be able to help you, Whitefang and Shadows
escortmad79 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Is there anymore information with regards to the distribution methods and the daily releases? From Sat 23 Oct, you can get a new LEGO toy each day for 10 days by redeeming vouchers from the Daily Mirror (45p weekdays, 65p Saturday) and Sunday Mirror (£1). How do I redeem? In the respective papers you'll find a new voucher every day, which you need to take to WHSmiths (high street or travel branches) or Toys R Us, where they will swap it for that day's toy. You can also get the toys by post. Collect just eight of the 10 vouchers and mail them to the address given in the paper. You'll need to enclose a cheque to cover postage, but as yet we don't know how much that'll be, so we'll update here once we do. What are the toys? They are an exclusive set for this promotion only, meaning you can't buy them in shops. Sat 23 Oct - Hover airplane with mini figure Sun - Police dinghy with mini figure Mon - Snowman Tues- Mini Atlantis sub Weds - Parrot Thurs - Police quad with mini figure Fri - Yellow plane Sat - Xmas tree Sun - Fire chief with mini figure Mon - Atlantis piranha Tues - LEGO carry case Weds 3 Nov - LEGO playmat
coupi Posted October 22, 2010 Posted October 22, 2010 I only just found out about this, thanks to my girlfriend who works at WHSmith
pedro Posted October 23, 2010 Posted October 23, 2010 Hey, This one crept up on me... but the UK's Mirror newspaper is running another LEGO promotion starting today. Pic is a link to the promotional page. This line-up is really cool in my opinion... Creator, Town, Christmas theme and Atlantis... love that undersea creature! Sorry if this has been posted already. pedro
