Where did you guys order the mini from?

 

[Burned_Alive]

Oh

My

God

That tumbler is awesome!!

 

[Broken Hope]

Where did you guys order the mini from?

The official lego webstore, you need to be a VIP, or you can pick one up at the Lego stores and sign up for VIP at the same time.

Goes on general release August 1st.

 

[Broken Hope]

Oh

My

God

That tumbler is awesome!!

For $199 it should be, we'll probably pay around £150-170.

What does UCS stand for?

What does UCS stand for?

Ultimate Collector's Series.

Oh my god that Tumbler!

$200 seems like a lot though. It looks like its only half the size of the Technic GP racer assuming its the same scale wheels.

It's 15" long, so 2" shorter than the racer.

 

[Skeeter]

The racer is 24" long. Although it has significantly less parts.

Looking for a price comparison, the Cargo Train is $200 which translates to £140 (on Lego.com).

 

[Broken Hope]

That will teach me for only quickly glancing at the dimensions on the Lego site, it lists both the racer and the truck you can make..

Anyway more pics.

 

[Skeeter]

Do want!

 

[Raymond Lin]

When is that out?!

Edit September.

Now do I get that or the mini......

 

[Raymond Lin]

Guys, is there a minimum order amount in the Lego Store in order to register the VIP programme when purchasing online and is this step done AFTER purchase?

I am just trying to find a cheap brick so I could registered as a VIP, much cheaper than making my way to the nearest Lego store.

 

[antijoke]

Damn I want that Tumbler.

The membership is finalised after the purchase but you should have already created a Lego ID before that point(make sure you are signed in at time of purchase). I never read anything about a minimum spend so you should be ok there. I only did this a week ago myself and I've already forgotten what I did.

Are you doing this to get the mini? There may well be a way to get the mini and sign up as a VIP at the same time. There was for the last VIP promotion they did.

 

[Skeeter]

You'd rather pay £8 on 'something' in order to get the Mini a week earlier?

For the free 'mini' mini, i'm just assuming that's the reason he wished to sign up as a VIP as he mentioned it a few posts back.

I just looked up the terms and condition on the offer, you would need to be a VIP member to purchase early and get the free gift.

 

[Raymond Lin]

No, I want to sign up to VIP.

I either, spend £20 in petrol plus £8 parking + lunch and buy the cheapest thing instore to get the VIP card.

or

cheap lego + delivery.
