Star Wars Day 2022 Freebie’s
This year for Star Wars Day, Lego gave away cheap poly bag AT-ST’s(30495) with qualifying purchases. They actually had three freebies, so long as you met the requirements. I placed a rather large order as soon as the sale started on May 1st, as there was something that was releasing on that day as well that I wanted. But I did not meet the requirements for the Lars family homestead diorama. As you needed over $150 of Star Wars specific purchases to qualify. And, while I exceeded that price line, it wasn’t all Star Wars stuff. Oh well. I’m cool with that. That diorama doesn’t really speak to me.
The AT-ST is nothing to write home about. As I said, it’s cheap. Probably would retail for seven or eight bucks. It is also small(about 60 pieces) and quite goofy. AT-ST’s are goofy though. So, yeah. It’s a far cry from the much larger, more expensive, and better looking version that is available. But, hey! Free is free. And I had fun posing mine.
I put it in a kind of ‘bad dog’ style pose. Because I threw it together during intermission of an infuriating hockey game the other night. It did well to calm me down. For like, 10 minutes…
Poor AT-ST…
For VIP members(VIP accounts are free BTW), orders exceeding $70 on Star Wars specific purchases received a Beskar keychain. As keychains go. It’s pretty nice. Solid and heavy. Makes a comforting metallic tone when struck by keys and whatnot. But the small ring attaching the chain to the Beskar needs to be closed with some pliers.
