Let's assume a user has 2 or more Apple IDs allowing him to obtain several redeem codes from you.
These IDs might be used with the same Game Center account meaning possibility to get 15 Lando shards several times for the same game account.
As you understand such feature allows to get 7* Lando within 1-2 hours.
Is it bug, exploit? Will such activities be treated as violation? Might it lead to further ban or other sanctions by CG/EA??
Another way is to open your Twitter App and do a search for 'eastarwars Lando Calrissian". This will find the tweet from @EAStarWars that allows you to redeem Lando.

I tried. It didn't work. I got a different code, but when I tried to redeem it, it said that the maximum number of redemptions for this account has been reached. Or something along those lines.
Lando might be interesting if the upcoming changes extend games. He's one of the few toons that needs 3-4 rounds before he really starts to shine. And even if he isn't able to catch on in the new meta a combo of Boba/Lando/IG-88/Sid/Vader/Maul AoE team can be pretty hilarious to use as GW fodder.

I know players which got 15 shards several times already.
That's why I'm asking CG/EA representative to make this clear.
While we consider it as a loop hole, Devs might consider it as exploit. More or less situation was with Vader earlier.

Tried it too, it didn't work. Wife and I have different Apple ID's, Game Center as you described, no go.
Nice promo! I was thinking about farming for him soon anyway, so this makes it easier to try him out first. I wonder if us iOS owners will be getting an exclusive scoundrel event soon?

The players you know must be employing magic.
Hokey religions or magic weapons are no match for a good blaster!
ps. Got my Lando shards! Now he is 82/65 and waiting to see how the update changes things.
Not sure if it was a coincidence or not but I upgraded some gear and Yoda and then the splash page popped up on screen and the inbox had the message too.
I had to do this because I waited a few minutes and nothing showed up. After upgrading one gear with one of my chars it popped 2* Lando :-)
Argh what a frustrating process! I put the Twitter app on both my phone and iPad, but clicking on the pic of the tweet in this thread would only open the tweet in a new page of the browser. There was a "open in app" button for the Twitter app, but it wouldn't work! Not in safari or chrome!
The solution for me was going to the Twitter app and searching "@eastarwars lando" then scrolling till I found the tweet.
The links in this thread absolutely did not work for me.
Right, you have to find the tweet within the Twitter app on your iDevice, because it will eventually take you to the App Store to redeem a code.
Yep, the frustration was that people make it sound like tapping the pic of the tweet in this thread would take you to the tweet in the app, but it won't. At least not for me!
Maybe @mooimachicken could edit his initial post to add the steps above. Granted it would require people to read the post but at least it would be at the top.

I like this idea especially if he gave credit to the guy who made it.
I just redeemed him... Thanks for the guy that help and his patience. Still no Lando in game... I tried to re redeem and it says no more codes...
Will he just appear at one point ? I tried a phone restart... But nothing
I may take a little while. As other suggested I upgraded one of my chars gears and I got Lando. In any case if you don't want to do the gear upgrade just wait. Some said it can take an hour or so.

Quoting so people can see this.

It takes about 5 minutes for him to show up in the mail.
I thought it was iOS only? Where's it on google?

It took around 90 minutes for mine to show up in game.
