Score double LEGO VIP points on all purchases until 16 October!

October 10, 2022 By Jay Ong 6 Comments

It’s that time again – shoppers on LEGO.com will be able to enjoy double LEGO VIP points for all purchases, which will run from 10 – 16 October.

If you’ve been waiting on a good opportunity to pick up any of the new October 2022 releases, or if there’s something on the Retiring Soon list you’ve been eyeing, this week would be a good time to pick it up.

So if you’ve been waiting on the 75331 UCS Razor Crest, this year’s Winter Village set 10308 Holiday Main Street or even The Office, why not get 2x VIP points for your effort.

If you’re in the USA, UK or Europe, you’ll also be able to qualify for the Ray the Castaway gwp, if you order before 13 October, however, there’s also an unrevealed GWP coming up from 14-31 October – 40562 Mystic Witch, which will be free when you spend AU$165 or more.

I don’t have any details of the American/UK threshold yet, but the timing should line up.

Here’s a random Witch minifigure till then.

It’s nice to have so many back to back stacking offers, so if you already have Ray the Castaway, you should try and wait for 40562 Mystic Witch, which could be some sort of Halloween-themed build.

Happy shopping!

    I’m annoyed about this a bit – ordered a week ago and it hasn’t left the warehouse yet, and I’ll miss out on the 2x. Sigh.

    Only other things I want, I can’t justify the retail on 🙁

    Done and done! Last Lego order for me this year and I can clear out 90% of my wishlist as well. Just as well it’s my birthday this month – if I could I’d be singing Happy B’day to Me from the rooftop!

    Now to perform CPR on my bank account!

Did you know that Fiona, the @lego Friends florist Did you know that Fiona, the @lego Friends florist is one of the first minidolls depicted with Down Syndrome?

Fiona works at the flower stall on Unity Street from 41732 Friends Downtown Flower and Design Stores 

She is described as being 'good at crafts and decorating, and knows all the flower species by name.' 

It's World Down Syndrome Day today and I think it's remarkable and very important for LEGO to enhance the perspectives of children on neurodiversity, physical disabilities, ethnicity and mental health, as they've done with the LEGO Friends reboot.

Here's my review of one of the most anticipate @LE Here's my review of one of the most anticipate @LEGO Disney sets - 43217 'Up' House ahead of its release on 1 April 2023!

This set is a dream come true for many Pixar fans, and we finally get a cute, compact and great looking Up House. 

It has plenty of references to the movie, and Carl's everlasting love of Ellie, his late-wife which will absolutely delight fans. 

Despite a strong lineup of minifigures (including an awesome Dug mould), the set's incredibly expensive pricetag (US$59.99/AU$89.99) doesn't feel like good value, especially with Kevin nowhere to be found.

Here are some shots of 77013 Escape from the Lost Tomb, which let's you recreate scenes from Raiders of the Lost Ark!

Indy, Sallah, and Marion break into the Well of Souls to retrieve the Ark of the Covenant in LEGO form, and this playset is packed with dynamic play features!

Priced at only US$39.99, this set is incredible value and a great way to get started with LEGO Indiana Jones!

Here's a look at 40587 Easter Basket, an incredibl Here's a look at 40587 Easter Basket, an incredibly affordable and attainable GWP that's available from 16 March!

It will be a GWP when you spend US$70 / €70 / £65 from 16 March - 9 April.

Lots of things to like here, as the design is cute, and the build is surprisingly technical, and it blends both Botanical and Animal construction.

Also like that the redemption period stretches into April, so if you have the Indiana Jones, Disney 100, or Guardians of the Galaxy sets on your radar, it should be an easy one to qualify for!

Such a breath of fresh air to get such a substantial GWP without having to spend hundreds of dollars. More like this please, LEGO!
