VIP GWP reward over £200 spend is the Space Blacktron Cruiser and the Limited Bionicle Figures from today.
Quite a few good discounts or double vip too.

I'm actually not keen.
I like the colour scheme of the old one. But the shape of the new one.
I really want the huge LOTR one. But I don't think it has anywhere to go

I got that blacktron in a previous VIP. Not opened it though.
Waiting for a big discount on the rivendell.
I'm buy it, and decide whether to horde or build.
Not buying at Rrp on lego official!

I’ve got 15k in points which will be Rivendell or the fort, it’s just whether they’ll both remain exclusive or not…
I only buy sets at 20-30pc Rrp discount. So I'll continue waiting. Ebay used to be a safe bet for this. Alas.. Might be waiting to black Friday.
Isn't 2x VIP 10 percent?

Just finished this one, a great little build.
Hopefully my brick order arrives soon and I can build some stands.

yup, standard is 5% but 2x works out at approximately 10% but that's off final price. when the points are calculated, not original price. So if you only gain points on the pounds you spend sadly.

Got me a tax rebate!
Do I get the John Deere Skidder or the Airbus Rescue Helicopter?

We're having a clear out at my mum's house and I found my old technic kits.
Do these have any value? As in worth putting to auction? (I don't have ebay and don't really fancy the hassle of boxing them up and posting)

Yes, and if they’re still sealed in those boxes to the right person considerable value, checkout bricklink for pricing which is considerably better than the cancer that is flea bayWe're having a clear out at my mum's house and I found my old technic kits.

They're not still in sealed boxes. I built and rebuilt them many times as a kid but the pieces are all there (pretty certain) and the instruction books.

@Kevin Clark et al
You often get considerably better prices on ebay in my experience, if you're comfortable selling on it. Esp with discount fee weekends. It's a much broader market.
BrickLink tends to favour buyers though and you do get an easy sale.
Personally, unless you need the money, I would keep them. Something very satisfying about building and displaying your original vintage kits. Always a good story to tell and talking point too.

Thanks, much appreciated.
I just don't have the space to keep them unfortunately. I've had my fun when I was a kid. Time for someone else to enjoy them.
