If you live in the UK, Australia, or New Zealand, you got 10% off all LEGO Star Wars sets. How awesome is that? Granted if you do a currency conversion, more often than not the price is lower in the states, but still it would have been great to have 10% off all Star Wars sets in the USA too. Sadly we did not. If you looked at the sales, the majority of the items up for sale are already discounted on Amazon and have been for quite some time. Many of the buildable figures have been discounted for a few months on Amazon in the US now. The set discounts for LEGO Shop at Home in the US weren't much different from what Amazon has been offering either. The Battle on Takodana (#75139) has been around 15% off on Amazon and Amazon increased it to 20% off to match LEGO's sale. The Resistance Troop Transporter (#75140) has been 20% off at Amazon for a while too and LEGO matched this for their sale. The 3 "deals" I saw through LEGO Shop at Home (in the US) were the Imperial Shuttle Tydirium (#75094) at 20% off (vs. 18% off on Amazon), the Homing Spider Droid (#75142) at 20% off, and the Sith Infiltrator (#75096) at 20% off. Sadly, none of the Ultimate Collector Series Star Wars builds or larger Star Wars sets like the Millennium Falcon (#75105) were discounted.

While it sounds like I'm complaining, the free shipping, double VIP points, First Order Stormtrooper minifig, and LEGO Force Awakens movie poster definitely help some. You won't get any of that from Amazon.

If you've been saving up for some Star Wars sets, you still have time as the sale ends on 4 May. I bought a few items for the store to include sets and minifigs. Let me know if you have purchased anything through the sale and your thoughts on LEGO's discounts. You can post in the comments or email me at store@bricksforbricks.com.
