Well, apparently the double VIP offer is extended for the entire month in the US, so they get the whole month of October compared to us here getting only the 2nd half of October. Also, the Holiday Train is already available in the US while we here in Europe have to wait till next week. 

Is this confirmed?

I think this looks as enough confirmation:

Just ordered Slave I and got both double VIP and Holiday Train.  Double VIP earlier this month really wiped out a lot of the sets a guy would want to buy, but most are still orderable.  Nothing wrong with promos being sent separately anyway.

no, the article specifically says that they've heard from a few people and that they're trying to confirm it. There is no confirmation. I wish the guy from newsroom was here to yell about shotty journalism.

I wouldn't take my chances. 
Lego website states 2x vip til October 14. 

So, you have 2 days to double dip with the train set.  

If they extend it, great, I'll buy more.

Also, don't blow all your wad, there's that Gingerbread house promo next month.

Except when they stuff them in a bubble mailer for shipping.  You could get some nice train pancakes.

That thought crossed my mind as well. 

I've never had TLG ship a boxed promo in a bubble mailer, but I guess there's a first time for everything.

Let us not forget when they put them in with the exclusives and they leave a nice rectangle imprint on the exclusive

The only one, that came boxed, that I received that way was the Spaceman promo.

How about the pirate?

Store employee confirmed to me today that double VIP goes to end of the month now.

I forwarded this post to my Reddit feed.

I never ordered during that promo period.  Maybe if they would have thrown in a Chima polybag with the Pirate promo, I would have bit.

The Pirate tribe was slated for Season 4, but alas, it's no more.

I'm hoping this is true.  We've been collecting the SW posters, and the triple whammy will be the RoTS poster, the train, and 2xVIP.  That's a nice little score of promos.

Pirates would have wiped everyone out.  Those Chima kids seemed very incompetent.

I think EU gets the train, 2x and storm trooper.  not sure if the poster will overlap with the train though.

The Revenge of the Sith poster is listed from October 26th to November 1st... so, you can basically get a train, a poster, and 2xVIP.  At least, I think that's how it goes down.  I know a few months ago, I managed to get a poster and a winter soldier figure in one order.

CONFIRMED. Holiday train is now live in the EU for purchases of more than 55 euros and Stormtrooper for SW purchases over 30 euros. Both can be combined and are added to cart automatically.

I dont see teh Train in my shopping cart 

when does the new star wars poster go live?

when does the new star wars poster go live?

It was added before midnight but looks like its now replaced by the holiday train

The SW poster promo ended yesterday. There are no more posters in the list.
