What is that new exclusive on the 15th for VIPs?  Sandcrawler?  I thought it was coming out on the 3rd.

Yes, i was discussing that very thing today with a Lego Store employee. When i asked him if he knew what would be on sale, he said they usually don't tell them until a few days before. Don't know how truthful that is but i wish they would let us know so i can budget accordingly.

...that is also the answer I got when I went to the store asking about it... we'll have have to wait a bit longer til 'someone' leak what it could be...

My guess for the exclusive:

 

http://brickset.com/sets/70816-1/Benny-s-Spaceship-Spaceship-SPACESHIP!

 

Benny's Spaceship

 

I was thinking the same thing.

Ecto-1 ?

 

Available in June, 2 weeks earlier for VIPs ?

This i what I am hoping for.

 

And I really hope  (and think) Lego will release a major Batman set to commemorate the 75th anniversary at some point this year.

Hopefully they discount something good for may the fourth, RS-D2 please Lego. I would buy one of these at a modest discount with the Darth Revan fig.

Maybe it will be the Ghostbusters set.  I think that comes out in June to the general public.  

That makes a lot of sense since Lego allows VIP members to purchase a set two weeks before it is released to the public. I guess we will have to wait until that day or until there is more information available.

Not sure how reliable Road & Track's info is, but according to the second paragraph it will be the Ecto-1 in May:

"The Lego Ghostbusters 30^th Anniversary ECTO 1 that we showed you...In May, you'll be able to order it from Lego.com."

That's still cool but a UCS Tumbler would have been wicked

-I don't always go shopping, but when I do I buy Lego-

Lets hear it fir the X-wing at 50% off!!!  (that is my vote for May the 4th)

for not fir - duhhh

X-wing on sale would be awesome, but what are the chances???

B-wing was discounted because it was (and still is, there are still many of them in my local LEGO shop) unpopular. That is not the case with the X-wing. It was slightly discounted on Black Friday together with SC and I wouldn't count on a higher discount than that. As I remember it was 15% or something around that.

 

For LEGO sharply discounting exclusive sets is highly unlikely. B-wing was an exception, a dud for LEGO basically.

Thanks for sharing the link. I don't know how reliable their information is, but I hope it is right because I want to buy this set.

I thought it was going to be Benny's Spaceship! Spaceship! Spaceship! but I think we got a July or August confirmed release date earlier this week.  I'll gladly take Ecto-1 in May.

Ecto-1? Will be picking up for my dad, huge Ghostbusters fan, but doesn't care about LEGO all to much. Supports my addiction though... Ahhh the ABS plastic...

Haha, still just a kid.

For those that purchased during the last May the 4th event, are the only deals they offer in store? or did they have online deals as well?

 

Thanks

Yes, the same deals are usually online as well.  The big one last year was the UCS B-Wing for $100.

Well, lets hope for more goodies then. An X-Wing would be awesome to build. Wish I didn't miss out on those B-Wings though...

This just in, the May the 4th discount promo will be on 75013 MHC, at 50% off retail. Heard it from a credible lego store employee.

But that's more expensive then Target. Ahhhhhhh

Yeah, that would be disappointing. $25 for a set you just got for $15, I'd probably still order 3 for darth revan but its no b-wing.

Very shrewd of Target to dump their stock before the 5/4th promo hits, knowing the set really wouldn't move after the LEGO Shop at Home deal. I bet TLG is who put the brakes on the Target deal? We know they can dictate prices with exclusives, which this technically would be? Interesting none the less.

Maybe local LEGO stores were told to go clean out local targets for sets to sell on the 4th  

That would really stink.

So The Brickfan is speculating that the Mini Cooper set, could be the early exclusive in May.

So has it been confirmed yet which set is coming out on the 15th? We have 2 more days.
