LEGO Star Wars Hoth Wampa Cave (8089) Review

In July 2010, LEGO released the Hoth Wampa Cave (8089). The set contains 297 pieces and retails for $39.99 which is about $0.13/piece. The Hoth Wampa Cave reenacts the beginning of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back where Luke goes to inspect the droid probe and gets ambushed by the Wampa and wakes up hanging in the cave.

LEGO Lord of the Rings Aragorn Poster

January 10, 2012 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has released a poster of Aragorn for their upcoming Lord of the Ring sets. I’m looking forward to see other characters LEGO-ized.

I went to a LEGO Store a couple of days ago and the reps there said they were reorganizing to have space for the new LOTR sets coming out this summer. I am excited for the LEGO Lord of the Rings line of products and will definitely be picking them up.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Maul Sith Infiltrator (7961) Review

January 8, 2012 / / 0 Comments

For Christmas, I received the LEGO Star Wars Darth Maul’s Sith Infiltrator (7961) set as a present from my girlfriend. I was excited because I wanted to add the Darth Maul minifig to my collection. This set recreates the scene in Episode I: The Phantom Menace where Darth Maul was sent to capture the Queen and tracks them to Tatooine. There Qui-Gon duels the Sith apprentice before he escapes.

The Sith Infiltrator came out in June 2011 and is the third version of ship with the first two being released in 1999 and 2007. The set contains 479 pieces and retails for $69.99 which rounds out to about $0.15/piece. The pieces are packaged in 4 bags numbered 1-3 and has two instruction booklets.

*Note* I will only be doing a review on this set and not comparing them to the previous versions as I do not own the other ones.

January 7, 2012 / / 0 Comments

“These aren’t the droids you’re looking for.” is one of the more rememberable quotes from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. In 2010, LEGO released set 8092 – LEGO Star Wars Luke’s Landspeeder. A recreation of the scene when Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi arrive at Mos Eisley and being interrogated by Sandtroopers. This set is an exclusive set to Walmart and LEGO Shop and the box is listed as a “Special Edition.” Retail price on this set is $24.99 which makes it around a decent $0.15/piece.
