tbroyd Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Hi Just a quick warning that the next UK free Lego giveaway starts next Saturday in the Sun Newspaper No details on the models available but i'll update as info becomes available
Thego Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Thanks for the heads up. I'm surprised there aren't any more details available, given that it is only a week away!
tbroyd Posted October 1, 2011 Author Posted October 1, 2011 Slightly ashamed to say I bought the Sun today and on every other page there is a note to say the offer starts next saturday. The same thing is written on every page: No other info so will keep checking the website over the next few days
fff Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Slightly ashamed to say I bought the Sun today This is for a good cause piece ... unless you're a bricklink amass-eitor
simonjedi Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 I don't know if my love of little plastic bricks will overcome my hatred of Murdoch's empire. I might get them via proxy.
Brainbox Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Slightly ashamed to say I bought the Sun today It'd be nice if this time we could send off for them all together like we could in the old days of the Mirror promos. I doubt we'll be able to, of course, if we couldn't last time. We students can't get to Smiths every day, see...
SilentMode Posted October 2, 2011 Posted October 2, 2011 It was quite fun last time, although I too was ashamed of buying so many tabloid papers. Will we get the toys from the usual outlets (Smiths and Toys 'R Us)?
martyboy70 Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Still no sign of any details on which sets we are getting?

brendangukl Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 They're up now on the Sun website http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/affiliates/lego/ slightly dissapointed :-(

SilentMode Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 TBH I'm also disappointed, to the point where I'll give the whole thing a miss. However, Friday would be very useful for anyone who hasn't got Jay.
Rumble Strike Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Not sure we needed two Harry Potters but some of the sets look OK. The ADU one being my favourite.
Yucca Patrol Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Would any of you Brits who are disappointed in these be willing to send them across the pond to an American who might like them? I sure wish our newspapers did neat stuff like this here in the US!

I sure wish our newspapers did neat stuff like this here in the US! Oh all right. I could always use some of the sets for parts.

charlieboy Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 I'm dead chuffed with these, much better than the last lot! The only one i'll not bother with is the Star Wars ship.

tbroyd Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 Its good to get some more details My daughter will love the Harry Potter ones and perhaps its no surprise with the new Pottersmore website being launched and tickets to the new sudio tour going on sale in the next couple of weeks. I still can't see any info on where they will be available from, WH Smiths again I hope
nisfo Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 All being well, but I've bad experience from past promotions when you have to collect on specific dates. Many times I have gone to Toys R Us and cued, only to be told that they have NONE left>> Then had to explain to my little lads. Bring back the tokens to be sent by mail. Less heartache involved for the little ones who don't have to go through such disappointment. I'll still buy the Sun though, so just by chance we can get Destroyer, Jetpack or Ninja
WhiteFang Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 To be honest, all of the polybags are great especially when I don't own any of them! So, I am looking forward to pick this up!
Miss Kyle Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Got the jetpack from my Lego store, and I love it! It's definitely worth going for it.
Roger Rabbit Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 This just flashed up on the side of my facebook.. I got so excited when I noticed Lego.. Probably gonna get the two Harry Potter sets (don't normally collect them, but those little sets are quite appealing for the price of a paper) and the city truck.
