There is still plenty more to expect this February at the LEGO Store, specially the launch of the highly celebrated LEGO Batman Movie with all its freebies and perks. To add more fun to the excitement, LEGO has now published its LEGO Store March Calendar, celebrating the release of its next wave of Star Wars sets and the newest, blockiest theme in town – the LEGO BrickHeadz. Rumor has it that a D2C exclusive will also launch in March celebrating the return of the swashbuckling Jack Sparrow in LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean – Dead Men Tell No Tales. Check out these LEGO March Store Calendar events.
March 1-15: FREE LEGO City Police Helicopter (30351) with any LEGO purchase of $35 or more, while supplies last.
March 4 & 11: LEGO Disney Beauty and the Beast Building Event. Visit the LEGO Store during these dates for an opportunity to meet and build with other LEGO Disney Beauty and the Beast fans. You’ll also get a chance to build and take home a mini version of Belle’s castle. This event has limited space so better sign up early.
March 6-16:Double VIP Points are back for VIPs on any purchase. If you’re holding back on particular set which will be available in March (such as the Captain America Jet Pursuit (76076) or the Star Wars Rebel Trooper Pack (75164)), then you may want to take advantage of these Double VIP points.
March 7-8: VIP Promotional Monthly Mini Build is the Platypus (40241). To reserve a spot, visit shop.LEGO.com/Minibuild-Registration starting February 15.
March 12-14:Bring in your little one for LEGO Duplo building inspiration. Drop into the LEGO Store before 1PM during these dates for 10 minutes of DUPLO inspiration. Just for attending, visitors will receive a special DUPLO set and inspiration guide.
March 16-31: FREE LEGO DUPLO My First Fish(30323) with any DUPLO purchase, while supplies last. Limited one per customer only.
March 17-31: VIPs get early access to an exclusive LEGO set that were teased a couple of days ago in China’s LEGO March Store Calendar. It is expected that this D2C set will be a pirate ship based on LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (71042). The sweet deal is that the calendar announcement seems to hint on more than one exclusive direct-to-consumer set so this is something that we will keep our eye on.
March 18 & 25: Join the LEGO Life Meeting where LEGO Life users may share their building skills with other like-minded builders and learn how to build April mini-model. This event has limited space with a registration fee of $10 per child. Open to all kids ages 6-14 and registration begins February 1.

By participating in this event, store visitors are eligible to receive 10% off on one LEGO Technic set retailing at $49.99 or more. Plus, you’ll get a cool, complimentary Technic poster for free.
Here are Other promotional events that you may want to keep tabs with your local LEGO Store.
February 27-April 23: Build a LEGO City police car and catch the crooks at the LEGO Store. The image suggests that this may also be a build and take home activity, though this is just an assumption. We’ll share more details as new info comes in.
February 15 and March 1:LEGO BrickHeadz, LEGO’s latest line of brick-built collectibles, will be available for early VIP access starting February 15, and March 1 for the general public.
LEGO Sets that will be available beginning March include the LEGO Classic Green Creativity Box (10708), LEGO Marvel Superheroes Captain America Jet Pursuit (76076), LEGO Star Wars Rebel Trooper Battle Pack (75164), and the LEGO Technic BMW R 1200 GS Adventure (42063).
It seems that LEGO’s next seasonal offering further confirms this year vignette collection. While most of us are warming up for Valentine’s Day and may have probably set aside a box or two of the LEGO Romantic Valentine Picnic 40236 for that special person in mind (you may want to check out Stephen’s review by clicking on the link above), and others have already grabbed their LEGO Easter Seasonal Set 40237, LEGO has now revealed its upcoming seasonal vignette slated most probably for October.
Thanks to Eurobricks member LegoLeroy, he was kind enough to share this image of the next LEGO Seasonal set which he found at the back of the building instructions of the Easter set which he and his wife purchased from their local LEGO Store.

Brickset has listed this next seasonal set as the LEGO Halloween 40260 which features two minifigures – a skeleton and a male, Bruce Wayne-like minifig – and a spooky castle gate of some sort with some great pieces like the pumpkin head, spider, and a cauldron for cooking a rather nasty meal. The gate seems to lead outside, against an orange sky that gives it a three-dimensional depth. Needless to say, the set comes with very interesting pieces that builders will surely want to have. The color scheme is predominantly black, but unlike 2015’s Trick or Treat Halloween (40122), this year’s Hollow’s Eve set comes with various unique elements that are pretty useful for builders. I particularly like how this year’s sets are designed, especially when it highlights the simple joys of celebrating the holidays with others – even if it is just an animated skeleton.
Our best guess is that there are still two seasonal sets waiting to be revealed just in time for Thanksgiving and Christmas. What do you think about this year’s LEGO Halloween 40260 set? Will you be picking this one up?
There are plenty of great things to expect from LEGO at the start of this year, and it seems that LEGO is on a roll even until next month with its LEGO Store promotions and events. Thankfully, we now have the LEGO February Store Calendar posted online so we look closely at its highlights. Check this out.
[]
February 1-15 – Free LEGO DC Super Hero Girls Krypto Saves the Day (30546) polybag with any DC Super Hero Girls purchase. We mentioned in an earlier post that the wonder dog will be featured in his own LEGO polybag and as it turns out, this comes as a free promotional. So it’s a good thing if you somehow managed to resist that itch on heading to eBay to get this set for a ridiculous, higher price.
[]
February 1-26 – Free The LEGO Batman Movie Posters with any purchase. From February 1-5, get a free Harley Quinn poster, Batman from February 6 to 12, Batgirl from February 13 to 19, and Robin from February 20 to 26.
[]
January 2 – February 26 – Find all of Batman’s suit variants inside the LEGO store and get The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack for FREE. As confirmed by some of our Facebook friends, the TLBM Accessory Pack promotional is primarily offered to younger LEGO fans and children, but AFOLs may also have a chance to grab one by participating as well (or if you ask the Store Manager nicely). There is also another in-store activity set on these dates where store visitors can help build up the iconic Gotham City out of LEGO bricks. We’re not sure if there is any complimentary gift to be given out by participating in this event, but it is definitely a fun building experience for the entire family.
[]
February 7-8 – VIP Monthly Mini Model Build will be a Raccoon. Remember to register online starting January 15 at shop.LEGO.com/minibuild-registration to reserve your slot.

[]
February 11 – Kids VIP Valentine’s Day Building Event is for a Rose. VIP members may visit any LEGO Store to meet and build with other LEGO fans and have a chance to bring home a LEGO rose mini model just in time for Valentine’s Day.

While you’re at the store, be sure to purchase the lovely seasonal vignette, Romantic Valentine Picnic (40236) to celebrate Valentine’s Day with your special someone.
[]
February 15-28 – VIPs get Early Access to a new exlusive LEGO theme. We first saw them at San Diego Comic Con last year, and this time, VIP members can now have the chance to bring home the blockiest guys in LEGO town with the LEGO BrickHeadz collection. To complement the theme’s release, LEGO has released a virtual reality app LEGO BrickHeadz Builder VR which you can download for free from the Google Play Store.

LEGO continues to be in a festive mood this Christmas season with these very much welcomed promos slated for the first two months of 2017. Though initially revealed through a LEGO Store flyer distributed in Germany, it will not be long until we see these same promos landing in LEGO brand stores and shop.LEGO.com in the US. Please bear in mind that the flyer is written in German so I don’t claim to understand the language, but thankfully we have Promo Bricks to help us make sense out of this exciting LEGO promotional. Let’s take a look.
The journey continues for our young heroes from Knighton as they face off with new enemies and gain new abilities. The cover of the flyer puts the LEGO NEXO Knights back into the spotlight which features their new found ability of combining their NEXO powers. If you recall, LEGO alluded to this new way of combining NEXO powers in Wave 1 of Nexo Knights Combo NEXO Powers (70372) set to help fend off the forces of the Stone Army.
Here’s the fun part. We mentioned before that LEGO has thrown in another polybag promotional with the LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman, Tears of Batman (30607) set. At that time, we had no info yet on when and how you may obtain this polybag which has shown to be a potential must-have set since it will feature not one, but two Batman minifigs that are not found on LEGO Batman Movie set. It now seems to be set in stone since LEGO has announced that the said polybag set will be offered as a freebie for every single receipt purchase of 55 Euros (or roughly around 50-60 USD) of any LEGO products (both in-store and online) beginning February 6 to 26 just in time of the film’s theatrical debut. There seems to be no qualifying purchase of any kind other than price point mentioned so this is something that most LEGO Batman enthusiasts will definitely look forward to.
As mentioned earlier, the LEGO Nexo Knights opens a new chapter in their adventures with the introduction of new tech and skills to ward off the sinister threat of Monstrox and his evil Stone Army. This new chapter also unveils LEGO’s latest Nexo Knights sets scheduled for release in 2017 including a new polybag to go along with it.
The LEGO Nexo Knights Shrunken Headquarters (30378) polybag features a Stone Army soldier and a roller-drawn catapult. Fans that will purchase a LEGO NEXO Knights set anytime between January 3 to February 5 will get to bring home this polybag for free. There is no word yet on the minimum qualifying purchase amount to be entitled for this polybag, but given previous LEGO promotionals, we can assume a purchase threshold of anywhere between $50 to $60.
And of course, last but definitely not the least on the LEGO Store flyer’s A-list is the massive modular set, the LEGO Creator Expert Assembly Square (10255). In celebration of LEGO’s 10th modular brick-building year, the Assembly Square is scheduled to be released on New Year’s Day both via LEGO Brand Stores and at shop.LEGO.com as a direct-to-consumer exclusive, priced at $279.99.
Hats off once again to Promo Bricks for helping us make sense out of this flyer.
If you’re reading this, then you’ll be pleased to know that you still have a chance to rake in those VIP points. Throughout this weekend and for a VERY limited time, LEGO has announced that its offering Double VIP Points for all purchases at all LEGO Brand Stores and at shop.LEGO.com.
This is good news, especially if you’re not done yet with your LEGO Christmas shopping list. However, you only have until today to enjoy this opportunity so be sure to make the most out of it. On the other hand, if you’re eyeing for that eye candy of a minifigure which is the LEGO Seasonal Gingerbread Man (5005156),then you might need to wait until tomorrow Monday for this exclusive promotional to start. For those who missed him together with the rest of the LEGO CMF Series 13, this is your chance to have him for FREE for any LEGO purchases of $50 and above. If you also time it just right (which I can still see from my end as of this posting), you can still have the privilege of FREE SHIPPING for orders $35 and above, and a FREE LEGO 2017 Coloring Wall Calendar.
So if you still have time for some last minute Christmas shopping, be sure to take advantage of these exclusives and freebies. So, what LEGO set do you still want to buy?
If you’re keen in following various LEGO Store promotionals, then you’ll probably recall that the LEGO December Store Calendar comes with another minifigure freebie that is hard to ignore. This month, starting December 12 until 18, LEGO Store shoppers (both in-store and online) will receive a FREE LEGO Gingerbread Man (5005156) minifigure for purchases of $50 and above.
LEGO has already uploaded images of this promotional via its servers and it confirms that the said minifigure exclusive will be offered in a packaging similar to that of TRU’s LEGO Chicken Suit Guy minifigure (5004468) promotional. Take a closer look.
If you missed on the little guy when he first made his appearance back in 2013 under LEGO’s Collectible Minifigures Series 11 (71002), this is your chance to definitely have him without feeling your way at any blind bag. Though it’s a nice touch to wrap him in a cardboard gingerbread house, I would be happier if LEGO took the extra mile by including his witty ‘Dunk Me’ mug accessory. They were able to add a sword accessory in TRU’s earlier promotional back in October which is a LEGO Ninjago Stone Armor Cole (5004393) minifigure so I guess it will not be difficult to do the same again. Nevertheless, it’s the holidays so having the little Gingerbread Man minifigure back again for FREE is a much-welcomed gift.
Now is also a good time to finish that Christmas LEGO shopping list that you’ve been working on especially that from December 12 to 20, LEGO will be offering FREE express saver shipping on any order of $35 and more. Take note that December 20 at noon is the last time to place an order online if you wish to have it arrive just in time for Christmas. Check shop.LEGO.com/shipping for full details.
LEGO definitely intends to begin 2017 with a blast with the recent release of its January Store Calendar. With none other than DC superheroes and heroines taking on the center stage, LEGO pushes through with its promise of releasing more sets under its most popular themes such as The LEGO Batman Movie, Ninjago, and DC Superhero Girls. Take a look at some of the highlights of next month’s LEGO Store Calendar.
December 27 to January 15
Free The LEGO Batman Movie Mini Batwing (30524) polybag with purchases of $35 or more. It seems that we’ll be getting another promotional that goes well with previous polybags that were earlier revealed – Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) and The Joker Battle Training (30523).This promo includes a FREE LEGOLAND Child Ticket Offer.
January 1
The LEGO Creator Assembly Square (10255) will become available for purchase both online and in –store starting January 1st. The 10255 marks the celebration of LEGO’s 10th year into modular building.
January 16 to 31
FREE LEGO Nexo Knights Knighton Rider(30376) polybag with a Nexo Knights purchase. Our best guess is that it doesn’t come with any amount threshold as long as it belongs under the LEGO Nexo Knights theme. Similarly, this promo also includes a FREE LEGOLAND Child Ticket Offer.
January 3 to 4
The VIP Monthly Mini Model Build will be a Narwhal. Same as before, be sure to register ahead starting December 15 since there are very limited slots available.
January 14
Winter Igloo Building Event. LEGO Store visitors and VIP members get a chance to build and bring home a LEGO Igloo (40061). Similar to other MMB events, participants must be ages 6-14 and a VIP member to sign up. This is only a one-time event so better mark your calendars for this one.
January 17 and 24
Technic Tuesday. Here’s a chance for LEGO Technic fans to build a store-featured Technic set, or race prebuilt vehicles against their friends and a Brick Specialist. Technic Tuesday is a more advanced building experience and is recommended for participants ages 8 and above.
January 21 and 28
LEGO Life Meeting. The LEGO Store organizes its very first LEGO Life Meeting where users of the LEGO Life app can share their building skills, build the January mini model and learn more about LEGO’s newest app. This exclusive event has limited space, so it’s recommended that you sign up early. Registration starts on January 1 with a minimal registration fee of $10 per child (ages 6-14 only). There is no info yet on how the registration will commence but we’ll keep you posted once more news comes in. Head over to LEGO Life’s website for more details.
LEGO has also slated to roll out its first wave of 2017 sets starting next month, so be sure to keep an eye on them.
