simonjedi Posted December 29, 2010 We've all seen the "Fill out a survey and win LEGO" ad in the back pages of our instruction booklets, and most of us have probably entered because we like free stuff. My question is have you or anyone you know actually won a prize from them? (If yes, what was it?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted December 29, 2010 Hmm... now that you mention it, I have never known anyone (including myself) who won anything through that survey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted December 29, 2010 I entered once, and I've never heard back. I think the sets they advertise are too big to give out as raffle prizes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyman09 Posted December 29, 2010 On one day, I had nothing to do, sorry guys . I entered that survey for 20 times, never heard something. Not even a thanks for competeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Yellow Brick Posted December 29, 2010 I did enter this one day (Which was months ago) and I heard nothing from it after Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buddy Posted December 29, 2010 I don't think I've ever entered this, but did start the survey before but did not finish it for some reason I can't remember. ~buddy~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legoman Posted December 29, 2010 I've entered this well over a hundred times and never heard back And I stopped entering about 6 months ago when I came to the conclusion I would never actully win anything from there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prateek Posted December 29, 2010 Come to think of it, I think that annoying kid on the back of the manuals is making money for nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorneliusMurdock Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) Actually, I have. I've always filled them out and this summer I received an email saying that I had won something. They asked for my address and about a month later I got Anakin's Y-wing in the mail. Not a set I would have picked but free Lego is free Lego. So in short, the survey things are not scams. I just think they don't pick winners very often and so there are not very many winners. I still do the surveys on the off chance they'll pick me again.

prateek Posted December 29, 2010 Okay, so now we know that it's real, but I think Lego should give out more sets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mrlegoninja Posted December 29, 2010 The chance of winning, I'm guessing, is one in a million. If you do win, its a miracle! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sok117 Posted December 29, 2010 Never entered, and probably never will. But a free Y-wing sounds nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Churchill Posted December 29, 2010 See, the way that it works is that now that CorneliusMurdock has won, we all have to keep buying sets for the next five years so that they can afford to send Cornelius another free set.... Win! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyman09 Posted December 29, 2010 Yeah let's do that. Maybe he's so nice to give everyone who bought something for him one single piece of the set Just joking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Soup Nazi Posted December 29, 2010 Y'know... all you need is the set number for the survey... I have only entered once, but after hearing that one person has won a set, I might do it again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravenclaw2010 Posted December 29, 2010 Okay, so now we know that it's real, but I think Lego should give out more sets I agree. I've entered every time I've got a new set, and I've never heard back from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorneliusMurdock Posted December 30, 2010 See, the way that it works is that now that CorneliusMurdock has won, we all have to keep buying sets for the next five years so that they can afford to send Cornelius another free set.... Win! Sounds like a plan to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enpaz Posted December 30, 2010 I find it rather interesting that Cornelius in fact won. Didn't think we'd find a winner on here so quickly! Free Lego is free Lego, you're absolutely right! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Crazy One Posted December 30, 2010 How do you enter Do you post, phone, online or email? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted December 30, 2010 The odds of winning probably depend on the number of prizes Lego has a available and the number of people who answered the survey. I haven't won anything yet. Then again lady luck is never with me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted December 31, 2010 How do you enter Do you post, phone, online or email? Online. URL is under the annoying kid on the back of the instruction booklets. Some smaller sets may not have the add, but if you have the site address handy you can just go and enter the set number anyways, and take the survey for that set.

brickmack Posted December 31, 2010 I've entered a few times but never won anything. However, after finding out that someone actually DID win something, I redid the survey a few times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RileyC Posted December 31, 2010 To be truthfully honest I have never read that back page. Its just ive never really considered it. Maybe I should get out my instructions and see what you have to do. Now I know you can actually win something and it isnt region based I will probably give it a try. Can anyone tell me what you actually have to do for it?
