May the 4th & 5th LEGO Star Wars

This is confirmed by the LEGO newsletter: The Star Wars promotional offer for May 4 and 5 is the same as elsewhere in the world:

- Free Shipping for any order of at least 55 €.
- Poster of the UCS 10225 R2-D2 set and Mini Tie Fighter 8028 free for any order LEGO Star Wars items.

This is good news, we still have to wait for the fateful date to see which sets will be offered at advantageous prices ... You will note that for once, I am not complaining about the geographical injustice ...

Oh yes, wait, I'm editing just to ask the important question: How long will it take for the minifig to run out of stock, and will LEGO dare to offer a replacement keychain?
