For the month of June, LEGO is offering two sets with Double VIP Points: the #70838 LEGO Movie 2 Queen Watevra’s So-Not-Evil Space Palace, and the #70839 LEGO Movie 2 The Rexcelsior. In addition, as we discussed back in March (see links at the end of this post) there are some changes coming to the LEGO VIP Program. Although all the details are not yet known, LEGO did release some preliminary information, which we will discuss below.
The LEGO Movie 2 Queen Watevra’s So-Not-Evil Space Palace comes with a really interesting futuristic design. It features a rotating top section with an opening, detachable rocket for Queen Watevra Wa’Nabi, detachable pods for other characters, security room, detailed dining room, and a DJ booth for creative play. If you have seen the movie, you can play out the scenes from the film, and if you haven’t seen it, you can easily convert this set into some kind of space station or alien mothership. The set includes eight characters from The Lego Movie 2: a Bachelor Batman minifigure, a Celeste mini-doll figure, plus Queen Watevra Wa’Nabi, Ice Cream Cone, Star, Royal Guard, and 2 Heart brick-built figures. The palace measures over 18” (48cm) high, 13” (34cm) wide and 7” (18cm) deep. 997 pieces. Price: $99.99 – BUY HERE
The LEGO Movie 2 The Rexcelsior is one of the largest sets related to The LEGO Movie 2 with a spaceship shaped like a clenched fist. It comes with opening doors and lift-off roofs for easy play, dual microfigure cockpit, and a detailed microscale interior with various rooms and compartments. The handle at the back has a trigger to activate the rapid-fire, six-missile spring-loaded shooter. The set also includes five micro builds: Emmet’s house, a forklift, two interaptors and a dropship. The two minifigures are Stubble Trouble Emmet and Rex Dangervest, plus we also get Emmet and Rex microfigures, and five micro raptor dinosaurs (3 metallic, 2 dark blue). The Rexcelsior measures over 7” (19cm) high, 15” (40cm) long and 8” (21cm) wide. 1,826 pieces. Price: $149.99 – BUY HERE
Also, remember that besides getting Double VIP Points on these two sets, there are a few days left (the last day is the 18th of June) to get the super cute, retro-themed, free exclusive #40335 LEGO Space Rocket Ride set with purchases of $99 or more at official LEGO stores and the Online LEGO Shop.
As far as changes to the LEGO VIP Program, we don’t know all the details yet, but this is what has been revealed so far:
It’s almost here! Are you ready for more points? Are you ready for awesome exclusives? Are you ready for epic LEGO experiences? If you answered “Yes!” to any of the above, then you’ll love what we’ve done with VIP. The big launch is coming soon. Very soon. But we want to give you a sneak preview of how you can earn more points and unlock more rewards. Here’s what’s new with VIP:
- More, more, more! We updated how your points add up so you can get more rewards. And we’ve unlocked more ways to earn points every day.
- Build Your Rewards! We made your points more flexible than ever. You can still get the discounts you love, but now you can also get experiences and members-only gifts no matter how many points you have.
- All new Rewards Center! When you want to use points for a discount, just visit the all-new Rewards Center, choose how many points you want to use, then get a code for your discount. Easy!
Changes to the LEGO VIP Program have been long in the making. It started with surveying the LEGO fan community and getting their feedback, testing out some changes, and now it looks like the new program is going to be rolled out very soon. I like the idea of being able to build points more ways, and that redeeming points is going to be more flexible. I hope that discounts and freebies won’t go away for lesser desired features, and that the new program will be worth it for both kids and adult LEGO fans.
What do you think? Are you planning to get either or both of the Double VIP Points sets? Or do you have them already? How do you like them? And what do you think of the changes coming to the LEGO VIP Program? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below!
