As expected, the series of 18 collectible Disney minifig sachets (LEGO reference 71012) is available on the LEGO Shop and in the LEGO Stores.

The price of the bag at LEGO is set at 2.99 € and it is possible to order up to ... 16 bags on the LEGO Shop while the series has 18 different characters. Probably an error on the part of the trainee who forgot to modify the maximum quantity of sachets that it is usually possible to order on the series of minifigs which have 16 different characters.

Note that this does not change much: By ordering 16 or 18 bags individually from LEGO, you have very little chance of obtaining all the characters of the series concerned and you will not escape to a few duplicates. As the manufacturer indicates in the product description, LEGO sells "surprise" bags ...

For those who would like to group together and order a box of 60 sachets (LEGO reference 6138967), I remind you that each box contains three complete series and a few doubles.

For its part, FNAC sells these sachets individually for 3.99 € ...

As usual, if you come across a good plan, don't hesitate to share it in the comments.

Update : The limit on the number of Disney minifigs that can be ordered in one shot on the LEGO Shop increased to 20.

It's unexpected and it's good news for all who have benefited from it: The LEGO Star Wars polybag 5004406 First Order General is offered in the LEGO Stores of Levallois (So Ouest), Clermont-Ferrand, Disney Village, Bordeaux and des Halles (Paris) during the promotional week "May the 4th".

According customer feedback who went to these official LEGO stores, they actually had the choice between the bag 30602 First Order Stormtrooper and this new polybag.

No trace of this polybag on the current LEGO Shop promotions page where only the First Order Stormtrooper is offered to customers for any order of LEGO Star Wars products equal to or greater than € 55.

If you could get this First Order General in one of the other French LEGO Stores, do not hesitate to indicate it in the comments.

Let's go for a week of offers around the LEGO Star Wars range on the LEGO Shop and in the LEGO Stores:

Le Store Calendar French for the month of May 2016 is available (to download in PDF format at this address) and we discover the few offers planned by LEGO to encourage us to spend our money next month.

Some details about the operation May the 4th which will take place on the LEGO Shop and in the French LEGO Stores from April 30 to May 7: Despite its absence in the Store Calendar, I have confirmation from LEGO that the movie poster Star Wars: The Force Awakens in LEGO version will be offered. It was the good news.

The bad news: No doubling of VIP points on all purchases of products from the LEGO Star Wars range as will be the case in the USA. It will be necessary to be satisfied with a "selection" of sets with a 10% discount.

In summary: For any purchase of products from the LEGO Star Wars range, you get the movie poster in a LEGO version and from 55 € of purchase, you get the polybag 30602 First Order Stormtrooper exclusive.

Those who have a LEGO Store near their home and have a child aged 8 to 12 on hand will be able to receive a LEGO Star Wars mini-thing on May 4 from 16:00 p.m. to 18:00 p.m. Please note, this is very precise: May 4 only, from 8 to 12 years old and from 16 p.m. to 00 p.m. ...

Finally, from May 9 to 31, 2016, LEGO will offer the polybag 30472 LEGO Creator Parrot from 30 € of purchase without restriction of range.

No trace in this Store Calendar French LEGO Marvel polybag 30447 Captain America's Motorcycle which will however be offered in the USA from May 27 to 30. This does not necessarily mean that the offer will not be available with us but it is a bad sign ...
