. I noticed the same unexpected 10 % off a few mins after the midnight.. interesting, that in EU Lego e-shop there is again Darth Vader buildable figure, which was discontinued at least 2 months ago.. or Luke Skywalker and Obi Wan Kenobi.. but what makes them interesting is, that now they are only 10 % .. two months ago, while they were retiring, all of them were 50 % off.. you just dont get the pricing policy of LEGO.. the same applies to Ninjago Spinjitzu training ground.. for at least 7 weeks 50 % off.. it disappeared from the e-shop offer like 3-4 weeks ago.. and now its back with FULL RRP price??

Yay for US/Canada sales!

75149 Resistance X-wing Fighter for EUR38 on the Irish site.

Horay for May the Fourth be with you.

When I add the Snowspeeder to my cart, the free R2-D2 poly bag isn't added. It appears to only happen to this set, when I add another Star Wars set to my cart, it is there.

Aussie Tahu : whats that proverbial sentence.. ". there is no such thing as a free meal.. "? :)

There's no information that says that the Snowspeeder doesn't qualify for the R2-D2 poly bag.

I've got £230 of VIP points to spend and I was waiting for today. I got so far as the checkout and decided to cancel and wait to spend them on the Carousel instead. The deals just aren't that great.

Wish they had 40% off the Death Star, ah well. I might pick up the resistance x wing. Thanks for the reminder article.

Here in France, 30611 R2-D2 is added to cart over 65 euros but with a specific selection of SW sets, and not with any purchase over 60 - I 'm a bit surprised and upset. I have to choose among sets I already have or do not want (Ywing or Awing, Scarif assault or UCS ), or to complete the cart with one of those sets and any other to be over 60... Unforced purchase I mean. If I choose TIE striker for example which is 69 with discount, promo R2-D2 is not added to my cart. I'm so upset! Do you have any information? Shall I wait? Thanks for your help...

Ive just ordered krennics shuttle and the polybag wasn't added. The order has gone through. I tried it with various other sets over the 60 quid threshold and it's been added to them. I've emailed them to tell them as it seems specific to that set.

It's alright now here, French site has been updated, and 30611 R2-D2 is now available with ANY purchase over 65€, whatever set(s) you might choose. Good new at last for French fans!

I'm going to leave this promotion. I'd rather have the R3-M2 minifigure-scale astromech, perfect for the background of a scene or in a fighter, to the big, brick-built R2-D2 which is useful only as a display piece.

When I bought the Resistance X-Wing this morning it was priced at 38 Euro on the Irish website-now I see it's 57 Euro; what's all that about I wonder?

^Had it in my cart at €38 earlier, dithered all morning over what to add for R2 poly and price went up. Sold out now. Oh well.

Someone must have typed in 60% off instead of 40%. Was too good of a deal to pass up. Hopefully they still fulfil the order.

Too true Padraic; well I did receive an email from Lego confirming my order and the price so here's hoping!

Oh man, now the Resistance X-Wing is sold out... dithered too long. Damn.

I got a confirmation for the first one, but no confirmation for the second one yet.

@padraic and @donnyman1972 lego's terms do state that there is no confirmation on their part until they ship the product. So be patient until you get that.

Thank you for the information Scoiltreasa. I will let you know what the outcome is once the order is shipped.

Out all day with family and hoping to buy the x-wing with the kids tucked up in bed BUT sold out :-( what's the betting it reappears very soon at full price......without R2. Double :-(

interesting .. after midnight and NO NEW 40 % discount .. seems like LEGO has quite a few problems with pulling these special offers off..
