Is there a code you have to enter or something? And how do you sign up for a calendar? The calendar is available at the Lego stores. Usually they have a pile of them at or near the register; sometimes you have to ask. Its just a sheet with the current (or upcoming) month on it, with some news and specials marked on certain days, and usually a coupon on the bottom with offers similar to this one. -------------------- |

Is it likely that the minifig will be avaliable in other stores for countries that don't have LEGO stores? I'd really love to get my hands on a couple.
Also, I think the hands are pearl-gold, not flesh. -------------------- ![]() |

I'm guessing that the keychain will be available as a normal product, since there is a product number for it.

Thanks for finding that. So, does that mean it's not for sale? It says "Promotional Product" where the "Add to Cart" button usually is. I wish it was for sale...$4.99 is a steal compared to the chrome silver Stormtroopers. -------------------- Thanks for the shiny new Prince of Persia Dagger of Time tag Svelte! :)

If it wasn't a keychain and had gold hands, it'd be quite cool.
As it is... meh... Steve -------------------- |

I just found something on my LEGO Store Calendar (July 2009):
For July 5, it says you can get the new LEGO Catalog. If you look closely at the picture of the catalog, you can see the golden minifigure keychain on the left of all of the aliens. There is some text on the minifigure that I can barely make out, but it looks like it says "FREE". Does anyone know what that might mean? EDIT: Here is an enlarged version of the catalog picture (scanned it myself). You can see the gold minifig keychain.

Or maybe even free with any order on a specific day... -------------------- Metallica. Led Zeppelin. Iron Maiden.

the link to the item on legoshop.com says its no longer available in this country. i guess lego figured out thier mistake in telling us this, or maybe that it was a promotional product and had no business being up on the shop@home
also, i think that the coupon might be available through that catalog, dont u think? i have alot of those catalogs and someof them have offers like that such as one year there was some free santa MF. and one other time there was an american flag for a penny and things like that. theres usually some paragraph explaining it on the first page and if the catalog comes out on the 5th we dont have to wait muchto find out. one more thing(yeah i write alot, what more could i say?haha.) the last catalog that came out i didnt recieve through the mail. any idea why? maybe im not on their mailing list anymore. how do i subscribe to it again? i really want that MF so this is big to me, im trying to make a pure gold knight for my sigfig! -------------------- visit my youtube channel for all the major lego news reports from sites like brickset, eurobircks, etc. here at http://www.youtube.com/shonenshindo
