December 24, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

LEGO Legends of Chima Spinlyn's Cavern (70133)

Last week, we reported on a new LEGO Legends of Chima 2014 minifigure from the Spider tribe named Spinlyn. There were no images of the set that she was in at that time but today, Brickset has found a couple of new sets that we haven’t reported yet, Spinlyn’s Cavern (70133) and Lavertus’ Outland Base (70134). Spinlyn’s Cavern will contain 407 pieces and will include 3 minifigures: Spinlyn, Eris, and Rogan. Lavertus’ Outland Base will have 684 pieces and 4 minifigures: Lavertus, Laval, Blista, and Sparratus. These two sets will be available at the beginning of the year along with all the other Chima sets.

LEGO Mixels Sets Revealed

December 23, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

Images of the new LEGO Mixels sets have emerged via Hoth Bricks. They state the images come from the back of a German catalog. There are three figures that are in three factions: Infernites, Cragsters, and Electroids. We first saw the Mixels at SDCC 2013 but now we get to see the rest of the sets.

The Infernites Clan include Flain (41500), Vulk (41501), and Zorch (41502). The Cragsters Clan consists of Krader (41503), Seismmo (41504), and Shuff (41505). Finally, the Electroids Clan has Teslo (41506), Zaptor (41507), and Volectro (41508). All the Mixels in the clan can also combine together to create a larger version or you can mix and match to create something original.

LEGO Mixels are set to be released in March 2014 along with the animated TV series on Cartoon Network and are tentatively priced at $3.99 each. You can read more of what the Mixels are about on the official press release.

LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar Minigame Completed

December 22, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar Minigame Bonus Video - Dewback

The final stage of the LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar minigame was unlocked today which is the stage of Tatooine. I’ve managed to complete the game with not much effort and after collecting all the ships in the game, you are able to unlock a secret bonus video that promotes the Microfighters sets. At the back end of the video (see below), there is a Sandtrooper patrol riding a Dewback. Does this mean there could be a dewback figure in an upcoming set? We shall see.

Overall, the game itself was pretty fun. It could pose a challenge to kids and maybe adults especially with the spots the items are located at the later stages. If you haven’t played it yet, I recommend taking some time and try it out.

LEGO Disney Princess Minisite Now Live

December 22, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The new LEGO Disney Princess minisite is now live. There are many things to do on there including seeing closeups of the sets themselves as well as the designer videos for each set. Another section of the site is called “How to Fairy Tale” which teaches kids how to create their own fairy tale in six steps. Finally, there is a Fun & Play section where you can print out uncolored images and have your kids color it in themselves. In that same section, there is a Princess Treasure Hunt Flash game to help the different Princesses collect treasures while avoiding obstacles. Head over and check out everything the minisite has to offer. The Disney Princess sets aren’t available yet on Shop@Home but they are already in LEGO brand stores as well as at various retailers.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 12 Not Available Until Oct 2014

December 22, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

Brick Fanatics is reporting that the Series 12 of the LEGO Collectible Minifigures will not be available until October 2014. As we know by now, The LEGO Movie Collectible Minifigures (71004) and The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures (71005) will be a subtheme of the Minifigures line and not part of the main numbered series. The LEGO Movie minifigures are starting to hit stores here in the US and will be officially available on January 1st and The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures will be available in May 2014.

As we have mentioned last week, the LEGO Minifigures Online MMO will be out next summer and they will have a special line of minifigures to go along with the game. These minifigures will also include a code to unlock that character digitally. With three waves of minifigures coming out with a a short break in between waves, this pushes Series 12 back until next fall.

We’re looking forward to getting all the minifigures coming out next year. If Series 12 is indeed coming out next October, it’ll be the first time that LEGO will have four different waves of Collectible Minifigures coming out in a single year. What do you think of potentially having four waves of minifigures coming out in 2014?
