LEGOLAND California Star Wars Days 2014 Recap

March 31, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend Star Wars Days 2014 at LEGOLAND California. There were many activities held at the park such as the Droid Hunt, the Miniland Scavenger Hunt, and the Fan Gallery. I also ran into a couple of friends there which was cool. The Fan Gallery was ran by Ace over at FBTB and the MOCs were created by local AFOLs including members from LUGOLA and SandLUG. Other things that were cool at Star Wars Days was the replica of Luke’s Landspeeder. Check out all the images I took while I was there below.

The LEGO Movie Emmet’s Flying Car Building Event at Toys R Us Again

March 28, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

If you missed The LEGO Movie building event at Toys R Us stores back in February, then you’re in luck. They are having the same event on Saturday, April 12th from 12-2pm. The event will be building Emmet’s Car which is the same as before. Who doesn’t like free LEGO anyways but make sure you get there at least 30 minutes before the event starts because I guarantee there will be a line going for it.

We have already done a review on the car and you can download the instructions for it here.
