Recieved my LEGO S@H order which was the Rancor Pit & AT-RT. Included a poster, Chima set and 2 Hans as well!^^ Pleasantly surprised with that bonus. Might give the extra to my bro. Poster is way bigger than I thought. Pretty happy right now. My B-Wing from TRU should arrive sometime today.

Ugh, I placed two orders. The first, ordered on Saturday, I received a shipping notice on Tuesday and it should be here Monday. The second, ordered on Sunday, I still have yet to receive any shipping confirmation whatsoever and all items were in stock at the time of the order. I did not order any B-Wings.

My B-Wing from TRU arrived today as well. I ordered the Rancor Pit and AT-RT from S@H. The Rancor and B-Wing boxes have some slight scrunches but overall I'm very happy. My TRU freebie of the mandalorian poly bonus is still a week away, lol, must of got lost in the back of the truck. Here's a pic of what I got. I forgot to put the poster and mr gold sticker in the shot:

^Same here! I ordered some Stagecoaches which were shipped separately from the promos and there were Chima sets in both. It's an adorable mistake on TLG's part: not only kind enough to send out an unannounced set but to accidentally do it twice for the same order!

I think the free Chima sets are an idication that Chima is not selling well, and they are trying to build some interest with the freebies.

I think you are correct. Next month the Speedorz (I believe) are buy 2 get 1 free at the Lego Store according to the calendar.

My set from TRU arrived yesterday and my freebies from S&H shipped on 5/7 and 5/8 (two separate orders). B-wings on those orders are backordered. Maybe i will get 2 free Chima!
Back in stock on S&H at regular price with no wait time here in Canada. I am right about their stocks on this, so I know for sure we will see a round two of it in the near future. And the free Chima sets seem to be a US only thing, sucks to be us once again.

Finally got confirmation my second order was shipped this morning, a full week after the order was placed. All my items were in stock, so I'm not sure why it took so long to ship.

Weird note, my tracking shows my package was shipped Friday afternoon but I was not sent email confirmation until Sunday morning. Talk about a "slight delay" in updating info... :roll:

I do agree - they have plenty of this set - I am sure it will be on sale again for the same price - at latest around the Black Friday time.

They will not if the UPC code on the back has a black line through it. (Which it should)

Your best bet is to list it on ebay for $8-10 or just give it to someone who has kids. I'm sure they would love it. My nephews are each getting a set.

Put me down as another Chima recipient. I did not order a B Wing (I bought one in store on Saturday), but I did order enough to get a Han (and a Minifigure Poster).

Was pleased to recieve my "backordered" B-wings today. They never were shown as shipped on the website!

Final take from May the 4th

- 2 B-Wings
- 26 Series 10 Minifigures
- 3 Promotional Han Solo (made 3 separate orders)
- 5 Chima sets!!!

They sent me one with each order's freebies and 1 with the separately shipped B-Wing.

Don't know that i need 5 of them, but can't complain!

Got my first order yesterday with Han and my Chima set, yet more confirmation it seems to be a US-only thing. I, for one, like the Speedorz line. They remind me of my old zip racers from childhood and I'm looking forward to the June sale

Double thumbs up to TLG, not just for giving out free Chima packs, but for giving out the training pack w/2 figs and 2/Speedorz :up: :up:
