The Pulse Power Days Sale is ongoing HERE. From that link, you can filter down to the Vintage Collection with the brand and series drop downs (or just click HERE if you're lazy). When I first checked on the sale, it was mostly figures that were being offered, but a few days ago, some big ticket items were added to include the Vintage Collection AT-ST, Endor Bunker, and Speeder Bike. Pulse Premium members get 35% off by entering code POWERDAYS35 (Hasbro Pulse, why do we have to manually enter the code?). Non-members get 15% off with code POWERDAYS15.
Here's where there could be an opportunity for non-members to get the $50 membership to come close to paying for itself. If you were inclined to order just those three items, you would save an additional $39 over the non-member discount plus you'd get free shipping which saves another $7. Combined, you’re only $4 short of the cost of that premium membership, and you'd get the benefits for the rest of the year. Also I've heard that shipping is no longer free for HasLabs if you're not a premium member:
If it is true, the premium membership will definitely pay for itself once the upcoming Vintage Collection HasLab launches next month. You can sign up for Pulse Premium HERE. If you're strictly a Star Wars collector, I'll be honest that the only perk that really applies is the free shipping. Star Wars doesn't participate in the early access programs (blame the licensor). But Pulse is fairly decent with their care in shipping, which makes it a better alternative than Amazon if you care about packaged samples
I realize the gist of this article is a bit like the early TV sitcom trope where the wife talks about how she saved the family $200 by buying $1000 of unneeded items on sale. You have to spend north of $200 to make the premium membership pay for itself for the Power Days Sale. I just wanted to point out that if these items (or seconds of these items) were on your want list, this sale can make the membership pay for itself (especially if you add Boba Fett's Starship). And I'm not just the president of the Hair Club for Men. I renewed my own Pulse Premium membership just for this sale.
