Anyone managed to get this to work - been trying to order the NASA women set for a week but it doesn't process using PP.

Me and my colleague used it yesterday. Clicked the link took me to PayPal and activated the £5 then went on to the store and ordered the set chose pay with PayPal at checkout which opened PayPal. It shows the original price and click continue on the final screen it applies and shows the discount click order and done.

For me it after processing via PP it then links back to the Lego site where it shows an error message & the transaction fails. Annoying.

Yes, I ordered the NASA women and Saturn V and paid via Paypal using this offer. It doesn't show up very clearly even on Paypal's site (go into the transaction and the £5 is shown but it's not very obvious that it's in the total) but they do charge your account the reduced figure.

I just get "Sorry! An unexpected error has occurred. Please try again." every time - that's going via PP directly or from the Lego site.

They must have taken a huge shipment as they’re still accepting back orders at lego.com and John Lewis still have stock.

In other news I’ve just spent 3 hours dismantling my Porsche so my niece and nephew can have a go building it. My fingers are so sore after dismantling it!

Couple of Saturn 5s in the Trafford Centre Lego shop today. Extremely disappointed with the 'fill a cup' station though, it was all big uninteresting bricks.

Yeah at half price I doubt they lasted long. I managed to get one, although probably would prefer chocolate.

Jeep and the Hawk I very much liked and would have happily purchased. I'm actually a tiny bit disappointed the Hawk didn't make the cut (I might have to look into the possibility of bricklinking it).

Lightcycle it a decent looking thing (and no surprise given Lego's Disney links) but not for me.

I liked Surf Rescue - you can't have enough beach in your town smile

I might pick up the Tron bike but it doesn't wow me. At least it shouldn't be another £100+ set that I must have.

These 6 are still in review -

The next 6 I think Gilmore girls is the only one with a chance as much as I’d like the space ship and the launch tower we’ve already had a space ship recently and to sell a space ship launch tower as an add on I doubt lego will go for as it has limited appeal.

I liked the Blues Mobile and Hawk. The Light bike should be cheapish so I'll probably pick it up.

I like the Space Shuttle and launch tower. Not sure I'd actually buy the launch tower though.
