LEGO DC Kingdom Come SDCC 2018 Set by Alex Ross

June 19, 2018 / / 0 Comments

San Diego Comic Con 2018 is only a few short weeks away and like with previous years, LEGO has a pretty big presence at the event. The thing that fans have been waiting for are the exclusive sets and minifigures that are available at the convention. We’re still a couple of weeks away from those reveals as LEGO likes to keep them close to the chest but it there is something interesting that has popped up online not by LEGO but by another exhibitor.

Alex Ross has posted the above image on Facebook with the caption “New- Kingdom come- LEGO set #sdcc”. If you’re not familiar with Alex Ross, he is the writer and illustrator for the four-issue series Kingdom Come from 1996 and the image is a “set” based on the comic. The image features the iconic cover, in a way, and has custom minifigures of the Alan Scott Green Lantern, The Spectre, Wonder Woman, Superman, Norman McCay, Batman, and the Wallace West Flash.

There’s no confirmation that this is something that will be sold at SDCC by LEGO or by Alex Ross himself. It is curious because he did use the SDCC hashtag in the caption but I’m not sure what this means. It could mean that he may just be displaying it there for show or we’re just be looking too much into it. We’ll definitely know if this is an exclusive in a few weeks when more SDCC exclusives are announced so stay tuned for that. Thanks to everyone who messaged in … Continue

LEGO Minifigure Factory Debuts in Denmark

June 19, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Minifigure Factory

Here’s something really cool that debuted at the Copenhagen LEGO Brand Store earlier today. LEGO fans love customizing their minifigures and LEGO has introduced the Minifigure Factory which allows fans to customize the design of a minifigure torso and print them directly onsite. The cost is 30DKK which is about $5 and the invention is by designer Jens Hjorth who has shared the project on Facebook. It has taken 18 months for the LEGO Minifigure Factory to come to fruition and it is currently doing a test run for two days in Denmark.

LEGO Minifigure Factory

From the looks of it, the Minifigure Factory has some premade designs to choose from for the front and back of the torsos. It doesn’t look like you have the option to upload your own design. It also looks like the machine can print a number of minifigures at the same time but it also means that you’ll probably have to wait until the machine fills up before it runs so it can be more efficient.

LEGO Minifigure Factory

LEGO Minifigure Factory

There’s no word yet on whether or not it will launch globally but hopefully the test run is successful so we can get them in every LEGO store. If you’ve been following my posts, you would know that the LEGO Mosaic Maker has finally made it to the United States so it’ll be quite a while before we see the Minifigure Factory over here if LEGO does decide to launch it worldwide.

LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle (71043) Rumored to be Microscale

June 19, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall (75954)

Way back in October of last year, I talked about a Direct-to-Consumer LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle (71043) that was slated to come out later this year. Many speculated that it would be UCS scale but there are now rumors that it may not be that. Just2Good and another close source is now saying that the Hogwarts Castle will be a microscale set similar to the size of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier (76042) with microfigures. Obviously this is not what fans were imagining but we’ll just have to wait and see and make a judgement when it is announced. Keep in mind that we’re already getting the 75954 Hogwarts Great Hall (shown above) which is reported to be coming out in a few short weeks.

Thanks to those who emailed in about this. Let us know what you think in the comments below.

LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter Hogwarts Whomping Willow (75953)

When the upcoming LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets were announced back in February, the press release said that they were slated to be released in August but things might have changed. I’ve heard from a few sources, including Eurobricks, that they might be available a month early starting in July instead of August. Some of the sets are already available in the UK so this means that the release date has been pushed up. We’ll see at the end of the month if they start showing up at retailers like Walmart and Target. If a LEGO Store Employee can confirm this, let us know in the comments below.

LEGO Harry Potter Activity Book Minifigure Revealed

June 14, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Harry Potter Activity Book

Last month, I talked about an upcoming LEGO Harry Potter Activity Book that was available for pre-order on Amazon which included a LEGO minifigure. We didn’t know what the minifigure was because it only had a placeholder for the image but Amazon has updated the image with the cover of the book and the minifigure that will be included is none other than Harry Potter himself. This version of him has the short legs and it looks like it will only be available with the Hogwarts Great Hall (75954) set so this activity book will be the cheapest way to get the school uniform version of the character.

Thanks to Brandon for the heads up!

The accounts for Aston Martin and even James Bond have replied to the tweet and posted the above image. Connecting the dots, LEGO is working with Aston Martin and the James Bond franchise to produce a set, possibly the famous Aston Martin DB5. What do you think the tweet by LEGO is referring to?

LEGO DC Super-Villains Video Game E3 2018 Recap

June 12, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO DC Super-Villains Video Game

Earlier today at E3 2018, Arthur Parsons from TT Games did an interview on IGN to talk about the upcoming LEGO DC Super Villains Video Game. They showed off the first level of the game as well as some of the features of the Character Creator. If you’ve played LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2, it’s similar to that but the character you create will be at the center of the game in which you can acquire and use various abilities.

LEGO DC Super-Villains E3 2018

In addition, they also showed off the character select screen in which it reveals some playable characters including Clayface, Cheetah, Deadshot, Gorilla Grodd, Harley Quinn, Joker, Killer Frost, Lex Luthor, Mercy Graves, Reverse Flash, and Solomon Grundy. Arthur also mentioned that the Ventriloquist will be playable as well.

There’s also the open hub world which will include Gotham, Metropolis, Arkham, Smallville, and Apokolips.

LEGO DC Super-Villains E3 2018

Lastly, the voice cast is said to be the very best voice cast ever to be in a LEGO game. Arthur does mention that “the Batman is the Batman” and “the Joker is the Joker.” Does this mean that Mark Hamill will be voicing the Joker again and Kevin Conroy as Batman? In another gameplay clip of the Joker and Harley Quinn, there is some dialog and it really sounds like Mark Hamill’s Joker.

Hopefully there will be a panel at San Diego Comic Con next month for even more reveals and special guests.

Sneak Peek at Rumored LEGO Jurassic Park Visitor’s Center Set?

June 11, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Jurassic Park

On this day 25 years ago, my favorite movie of all-time, Jurassic Park, was released in theaters and earlier today, LEGO released an image to celebrate the anniversary. The scene shows the end of the movie where the Tyrannosaurus Rex is inside the Visitor’s Center with the banner falling down.

If you look closely, you can actually see part of the Visitor’s Center in the background and could this be a teaser to the rumored LEGO Jurassic Park Visitor’s Center set? If you’ve been following my posts, I’ve talked about it on and off but there’s still no definite confirmation about it. One of my contacts says there is one coming but I cannot confirm it at this time. As we know by now, there’s already a 25th anniversary LEGO Jurassic Park set that has been released with the Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase (75932).

Greg Miller Confirmed for LEGO DC Super-Villains Video Game

June 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The next LEGO video game was announced last week to be LEGO DC Super-Villains coming in October. WB Games and TT Games will be at E3 next week to start promoting it and hopefully will continue at San Diego Comic Con.

There’s already some new information about it in terms of new characters that we can expect to see. Greg Miller from Kinda Funny has been a genuine fan of LEGO video games for a while now and if you’ve been going to the SDCC panels for previous LEGO games, you can actually see the enthusiasm he has for these games. He has actually done some voice work for some of the previous LEGO games including Aldrich Killian for LEGO Marvel’s Avengers and Howard the Duck for LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2.

When a fan was asking him if he was going to be in this latest installment, he replied with a simple “I am in the game!” This confirms that he’ll again have some sort of role but we can only guess as to who he’ll portray. Greg if you read this, can we get a reveal at SDCC?

How Does Three LEGO Creator Roller Coaster (10261) Sets Combined Look Like?

June 8, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Creator Roller Coaster (10261) is now available and it looks very impressive as it is but what if you combine it with multiple copies of the set? Nati con i LEGO has released a new video of them showing off the Roller Coaster with three sets combined which is a feat in itself. The first thing that your eyes are probably drawn to is the constructed loop. There’s enough height on the initial drop that the momentum lets the carts go through the loop with ease. I wish the video showed a wider shot of the drop from the top of the tracks but nevertheless it is pretty stunning seeing three Roller Coaster sets combined into one larger coaster. Check out the video below.

The LEGO Group Announces Collaboration With IKEA to Promote Creative Play

June 7, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Group has announced that they are partnering up with the popular Swedish furniture company IKEA to promote more creative play in the home environment. The press release doesn’t go into detail of what will be happening with this partnership however my guess is that we could see LEGO branded furniture being sold at IKEA. Stay tuned as we expect more information in the near future about the LEGO/IKEA team-up.

IKEA AND THE LEGO GROUP IN COLLABORATION TO ENABLE MORE PLAY AND CREATIVITY

We know that play is an important part of life and we believe in the power of play. Play lets us be creative, explore, experiment, dream and discover. IKEA and the LEGO Group, join forces to encourage more play.

Play is key to develop. And it is an essential part of a better everyday life. Play is so many different things, for so many different people. In the everyday life there are different barriers for play. Some of the barriers are more evident for grown-ups. One being that grown-ups think that playing can be messy. Other barriers are more evident to children – like grown-ups trying to create order in the play environment, where children in fact enjoy and often immerse themselves in the midst of it all.

“It started with an invitation from the LEGO Group “Do you want to play?”. Of course we said yes to this and together we now want to enable more play by triggering play in the functionality of the everyday life. At IKEA we first

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part Teaser Trailer Breakdown

June 6, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

The big news yesterday was that teaser trailer for The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part was released online yesterday and I’m going to try and do a breakdown of what happened in the trailer and what sets we could get from LEGO from what was shown.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

It’s been five years since the events on Taco Tuesday and Bricksburg has turned into an apocalyptic wasteland. If you remember, LEGO DUPLO characters came at the end of The LEGO Movie and it looks like they caused the destruction of the city.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

As a result, everything turned into chaos and it “toughened and hardened” most people including Larry the Barista who underwent a drastic change. The only person that seemingly didn’t get affected was Emmet.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

Emmet thinks he sees a shooting star go by but it is most likely a device sent down by a new character named Sweet Mayhem who is a minidoll instead of a minifigure. Here we can see a new Unikitty who is now a large armored cat that has long front and hind legs.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

Building their way through trouble is still an integral part of their characters as you can see them build a four-wheel buggy that could be one of the sets we could get.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part

Soon after that, they meet Sweet Mayhem, voiced by Stephanie Beatriz, who actually looks pretty cool. She is a minidoll style and wears a stylish helmet with some sparkly wings.

LEGO Ideas Voltron – Defender of the Universe Release Date Revealed?

June 6, 2018 / / 0 Comments

It’s been over a year since the LEGO Ideas Voltron – Defender of the Universe hit 10,000 supporters and basically there has been no information about it since it was announced that it would become an official set. I did report on rumored pricing but now there might be information on a release date for the set. Candidbricks has found from a South Korean news site, IT Chosun, that Voltron would be released on August 1 as was told to them by an official from LEGO Korea. The reason for the long delay is because LEGO needed more time to get the license to produce the set.

Although a release date was stated, it’s still not a confirmation until LEGO actually announces it online or through a press release. I’m still thinking they will be showing it off at San Diego Comic Con next month as it is the perfect place to announce it.

As you can see, Sweet Mayhem will be a minidoll figure with some glittery wings and a ray gun. It’s still not known what role she will have in the movie. Also in the Deadline report, Auturo Castro has also signed on to voice a character named Ice Cream Cone.

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path Book Review

June 3, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path

One of the new DK books that will coming out this week is the LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path that I’ve reported on a few months back. The style of the book is similar to the classic Choose Your Own Adventure books where you assume the role of a character, in this case U-3PO, and you make choices to determine the story’s outcome. LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path has 128 pages and retails for $19.99 and it releases on June 5.

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path

Minifigure

As with a majority of DK books, there usually is an exclusive LEGO minifigure included but for this one, it isn’t an exclusive. With the book, we get U-3PO which was previously found in the 2016 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar (75146). Unless I missed something, it is the exact minifigure and is basically a color swap of most recent version of C-3PO.

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path

Book

As I mentioned before, LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path is a story based book where you choose your way of how the story goes. There are three starting points to choose from, “Hunt the Sith,” “Fight the Empire,” or “Defeat the First Order.” For each page, it gives a short story in which you’ll have to find a way to continue the story by picking one of two ways and keep going until you find a good ending or it tells you to try again. There are more than 40 endings that you’ll be able to find.

LEGO has announced the winner of the LEGO Ideas Third 2017 Review Stage and it really isn’t a surprise given one of the upcoming LEGO promotions is loosely based on it.

LEGO Brand Store (40305)

The official images of the upcoming LEGO Brand Store (40305) set are now up on LEGO’s servers. Here we can closely see some of the details of the set and as reported before, it doesn’t seem to be a promotional item but a normal set that can be purchased by itself. Currently it is available at LEGOLAND Billund so we can probably expect to see it at LEGOLAND California or LEGOLAND Florida and possibly LEGOLAND Discovery Centers soon. As for if it will be coming to LEGO Stores themselves or on Shop@Home, that is still up in the air but since it does show up on LEGO’s servers, there’s a good chance that it’ll be available on Shop@Home.

Thanks to Mikala for the heads up.

The Toys That Made Us LEGO Episode Review

May 29, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The long-awaited LEGO episode for The Toys That Made Us finally released last week and I’ve finally had some time to watch it and give it a quick review. If you’re not familiar with the show itself, it’s an eight part documentary that talks about the history of various toy franchises and how they’ve impacted society. Some of the toy lines that have been featured so far included He-Man, Star Wars, Transformers, and of course, LEGO.

The episode is about 45 minutes and it condenses LEGO’s 80+ years of history into it. If you’re familiar with LEGO’s history, then there’s really not much that you don’t already know and if you’ve read Brick by Brick: How LEGO Rewrote the Rules of Innovation and Conquered the Global Toy Industry by David Robertson, who also makes an appearance, then you’re pretty much set. The episode, however, does tell the story of LEGO in an upbeat way with some humor thrown in here and there. Most of the significant events that helped shape LEGO into the company that it is now is in the episode which included talking about the system of play, the emergence of the LEGO minifigure, the failures such as Jack Stone and Galidor, the decline due to the Star Wars and Harry Potter licenses, and to the revival because of Technic, Mindstorms, Bionicle, and Ninjago.

Even though it covered a lot of topics, there wasn’t anything new introduced that knowledgeable fans didn’t know about already. Although Ninjago and The LEGO Movie were mentioned briefly, it … Continue

Lloyd must endure in NINJAGO City, the others need to find the fabled Dragon Armor if they ever hope to get back home to stop Emperor Garmadon once and for all.

LEGO Brand Store (40305)

A few weeks ago, we got a look at the new LEGO Brand Store (40305) set and at first we thought it was going to be a part of an upcoming promotion but it looks like that won’t be the case. Zusammengebaut has reported that the set is actually being sold by itself at LEGOLAND Billund for 229.95 krones. We also get a look at the set stacked up and it looks like a decent sized set and is actually too big to be a promotional set. Hopefully we’ll get to see this set over here in the states in the next few months and I actually don’t mind it being a regular set.

New LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Tyrannosaurus Rex Set Found

May 24, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Jurassic World: The Fallen Kingdom Tyrannosaurus Rex

If you’ve think you’re done collecting all the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets, it looks like there will be another set to hunt for in the near future. Over at a Belgian toy store named Dreamland, they have shown off a new Tyrannosaurus Rex (4000031?) set consisting of 70 pieces as part of one of their promotions they’re having in store. The set shows a T.Rex standing on a brick-built display. The rex itself looks to be an exclusive with its leopard printing.

What’s interesting is that they are claiming that there are only 500 of the sets produced worldwide which I hope isn’t true. This set isn’t part of June’s promos when Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is in theaters so that’s out of the question. If it is actually at 500 total sets, it’ll be more rare than the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Bat-Pod (5004590) which had a run of only 750 sets. Hopefully there are other opportunities to get a hold of this set in the future, preferably in a more larger quantity.

LEGO The Incredibles Video Game Includes Other Disney Pixar Characters

May 24, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO The Incredibles Video Game comes out in just a few short weeks and the achievement list has just been revealed showing some neat Easter eggs in the game. As you progress through the game, you’ll obtain these achievements but there are also some hidden Disney Pixar characters in some of them. If you don’t want to be spoiled, I suggest not reading any further.

In one of achievements called “Truly Incredible!”, the icon shows Mr. Incredible standing next to Woody (Toy Story), Bing Bong (Inside Out), Wall-E, Merida (Brave), and Russell (Up). In another achievement called “Just Keep Swimming,” the icon shows Dory from Finding Dory in a fish bowl. This means that all those characters will be playable in the LEGO The Incredibles Video Game.

It’s cool that we’ll be able to play some other Disney Pixar characters other than the ones from The Incredibles movies. I wonder what other characters will show up in the game as well.

Remember that you can pre-order the game at GameStop and you can get the bonus exclusive LEGO Edna minifigure.

LEGO Personalised Mosaic Portrait (40179)

The LEGO Mosaic Maker has been pretty popular in the UK, Europe, and more recently in Asia and now it will be making its way to the United States. If you’re not familiar with the Mosaic Maker, it’s basically a machine that captures an image of you and you’ll be able to get printed instructions and bricks for your LEGO portrait.

As usual with some of the bigger events, it will be held first at the flagship Flatiron District LEGO Brand Store in New York. They are holding a pre-booking event and you’ll need to claim your spot five weeks in advance. The cost for one of the sets is $129.99 per portrait and you’ll need to pre-pay the cashier before you get the LEGO Mosaic Maker Experience Card to use the machine.

Hopefully, the New York location opens it up more for other stores around the US to have their own machines as well.

There is other info at this time but for me personally, I’m very excited for this announcement because I’m a huge Overwatch fan. When I’m not doing anything LEGO-related, I’m usually playing the game. You can add me on Blizzard at Tormentalous#1173. Who else is excited for LEGO Overwatch sets?

Should LEGO Release a Roller Coaster Tracks Pack?

May 20, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The new LEGO Creator Roller Coaster (10261) is now available for VIP members and many fans are excited to see a set that have been long-awaited since the Fairground subtheme was first started a few years ago. As we know by now, The Joker Manor (70922) introduced some of the new roller coaster tracks but it was hard and fairly expensive to get the track pieces in a larger quantity. We do get a few of the straight pieces in the Rhino Face-Off by the Mine (76099) but those were only straight tracks and some of the curved tracks were in the more expensive sets.

The question at hand is should LEGO release a roller coaster track pack like they do with the LEGO City train tracks? I’m sure that fans will defintely appreciate this kind of pack as it does give an opportunity to get a variety of track pieces in one pack instead of going through BrickLink or other places. They will probably eventually show up on Bricks & Pieces but I would rather just get a single pack and get it out the way.

What do you guys think? Should LEGO release a roller coaster track pack now that they are releasing more sets with these tracks pieces? Let us know in the comments below.

Rumored LEGO Bricktober 2018 Set Details

May 16, 2018 / / 0 Comments

As we all know by now, Toys R Us will be completely shutting down and from what I’m hearing from my manager, most stores will be closed by the end of June. However, this news doesn’t stop the fact that there are some rumored information about the 2018 LEGO Bricktober sets. A source has told me that there are at least three sets which will include themes like LEGO Ninjago, LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, and LEGO Harry Potter.

From the Ninjago set, it will feature characters from the Son of Garmadon storyline.

For the Marvel Super Heroes set, it is said it will be an Avengers: Infinity War set featuring War Machine, Wong, Tony Stark with the Mark 50 arc reactor, and White Wolf/Bucky.

Finally for the Harry Potter set, there is Madam Rolanda Hooch, Professor Horace Slughorn, Dolores Umbridge, and Boggart Snape.

The main question is since Toys R Us is closing here in the US, where LEGO has a bigger market share compared to Canada and Asia where TRU is still operating as usual, who will now get the Bricktober exclusive? I can see LEGO doing it themselves in October similar to what TRU did every week of the month which would be the easiest way. Target or Walmart might also get their hands on it and I’ve even heard Amazon could be a potential substitute but that’s very farfetched. LEGO would also probably do some repackaging to remove the Toys R Us branding or they could leave it as is to save money. … Continue

First Look at Updated LEGO Wizarding World Flying Ford Anglia

May 14, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Wizarding World Flying Ford Anglia

It looks like we’ve gotten an accidental sneak peek at the new Flying Ford Anglia from one of the upcoming LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets. As you can see from the image above, the car is somehow put on the banner for the LEGO Elves theme on Shop@Home. The Ford Anglia shown is an updated version of the car which has also previously appeared in two other sets, Escape from Privet Drive (4728) and Hogwarts Express (4841).

This new one could be in one of the two rumored sets that it has a scene in, Aragog in the Forbidden Forest (75950) and Whomping Willow (75953). Either way, it most likely means the set will also include minifigures of Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.

LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjago City Docks (70657) Set Image

The LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjago City Docks (70657)

A few weeks ago, we got our first look at the highly anticipated The LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjago City Docks (70657). We now have a clearer look at the set at a slightly different angle than shown on the box art. There’s still no word on the piece count but there is now a suggested retail price of € 249,99. If this is correct, then it’ll be around $290 give or take a few dollars. Nevertheless, it’s still a pretty impressive set that fans would probably want to add to the current Ninjago City (70620).

The LEGO Movie 2/Harry Potter

There will be some new LEGO books coming out in the future for The LEGO Movie 2 and Harry Potter which will include possible exclusive minifigures. The book for TLM2 is called Emmet’s Guide to Being More Awesome and it will be similar to the first one.

Emmet is BACK and ready to show us all how to be even MORE awesome! The LEGO(R) Movie 2 hits theaters February 9, with an all-star cast, including Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Alison Brie, and more! The sequel is sure to delight fans of all ages with its special brand of LEGO humor. This one-of-a-kind guidebook is narrated by Emmet himself(!) and comes with a buildable Emmet minifigure. It’s a must-have offering for fans of the film.

The Harry Potter one is an activity book filled with puzzles and games and it also has an unannounced minifigure.

This LEGO(R) Harry Potter(TM) activity book is packed with comics, puzzles, mazes, games, and more! Featuring all your favorite characters from the Harry Potter films, these pages are full of endless fun — plus, a buildable minifigure!

Both books have a listed release date of December 26 which is just a placeholder so that date will change. I’ll update when the book covers are revealed along with the minifigures.

LEGO DC Villains “Confirmed” by Walmart Canada

May 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

At the beginning of the year, I reported on some upcoming rumored video games which included LEGO The Incredibles and something called LEGO DC Villains. As we know by know, the LEGO The Incredibles Video Game was officially announced back in March. It looks like now we can potentially the LEGO DC Villains video game as well. According to Variety, Walmart Canada earlier today accidentally leaked a bunch of upcoming games including the aforementioned LEGO DC Villains game. The listing has since been removed but it looks like the cat is out of the bag. Of course Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment nor TT Games will confirm it at this time but hopefully they’ll tease something now that the information is out in the wild. Perhaps they’ll announce something at E3 2018 or at San Diego Comic Con.

It has been reported that the main focus of the game will be centered around the DC villains instead of the super heroes as with previous LEGO games. Now that LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 is starting to wrap up their DLCs, we’ll turn our attention to the next two games in the pipeline.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Aquaman: Rage of Atlantis

Amazon has updated a listing of the upcoming LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Aquaman: Rage of Atlantis original animated movie which will include an exclusive LEGO Jessica Cruz Green Lantern minifigure. The movie will come in both Blu-Ray and DVD formats which seems to both include the Jessica Cruz minifigure. Images of the minifigure have surfaced online a few months ago but it’s nice to see where we are able to get it. LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Aquaman: Rage of Atlantis will be released sometime this summer. Check out the trailer below.

LEGO & DC Comics are at it again: Aquaman has to defend his ocean realm against Atrocitus and the Red Lanterns with the help of the Justice League: Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg & Green Lantern. There will also be some newbies to the DC animated world sprinkled in. LEGO DC Super Heroes – Aquaman: Rage of Atlantis is set to release later this summer.

LEGO Unikitty Roller Coaster Wagon (30406) Polybag Found at LEGOLAND

May 7, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Unikitty Roller Coaster Wagon (30406)

Late last month, the official images of the LEGO Unikitty sets started appearing online along with the Collectible Figure blind bags which are slated to come out later this summer. There’s now also news of a polybag for the theme which has started to hit LEGOLAND and LEGOLAND Discovery Centers as well as on eBay called the Unikitty Roller Coaster Wagon (30406).

As an eBay Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

It has 46 pieces and includes the most basic variant of Unikitty. What’s interesting here is that Unikitty uses a new reverse 1×3 plate for the neck that connects to a pin to give the head more stability unlike the original Unikitty from The LEGO Movie line. You can check out a review of the polybag from Just2Good below. There’s no word on a wider availability at this time as LEGOLAND usually sells polybags before other retailers but I’ll keep you updated.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Avengers: Infinity War Movie to Set Comparison

May 6, 2018 / / 0 Comments

It’s been two weeks since Avengers: Infinity War was released in theaters and if you’re a fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe like me, you’ve probably seen the movie already, maybe more than once. I’ve been asked a few times to compare the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Avengers: Infinity War sets to the movie and that’s what I’ll do in this new series I’m starting on this site simply called Movie to Set Comparison.

As we know by now, LEGO usually releases sets depicting scenes for a particular movie and sometimes they aren’t that accurate due to them having only a little bit of source material to go by. What I’ll be doing is watching a certain movie and comparing the sets to see how accurate they are to the film. What better beginning to this series than to compare the LEGO sets to the record-setting Avengers: Infinity War. There are six sets that have been released so far for this movie so let’s get started. Be warned, there are spoilers but that goes without saying.

Outrider Dropship Attack (76101)

The Outrider Dropship Attack depicts the scene in Wakanda with a few members of the Black Order and the Outriders. The minifigure selection of Captain America, Black Widow, and a couple of Outriders are definitely accurate as they all appear in this scene. Both Captain America and Black Widow are in their new outfits and I do like how Captain America has his beard. The Outriders themselves are decent using a new neck brace piece for … Continue

Also if you’re a Black VIP card holder, don’t forget to claim your unique code for the Y-Wing Blueprint Poster when you make your purchase.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Cloud City Rumored Details

May 5, 2018 / / 0 Comments

May the 4th has passed and the set that was released was the LEGO Star Wars UCS Y-Wing Starfighter (75181) and not the rumored Cloud City set but there are some new details of the set coming out of Eurobricks recently. User Paperballpark, who is considered a reliable source of info, has revealed that there is a Cloud City (75222) set coming, most likely in the fall, and it’s a playset similar to the Death Star (75159). They mention that if you “chop the bottom off the Death Star, then add a few platforms and a ship or two,” it’ll be what we could expect in the set. The ships are rumored to be a medium-sized Slave I and a Twin-Pod Cloud Car.

As for the play details, it’ll be open like the Death Star and I assume it’ll have different rooms with scenes from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back like the dining room, the carbon freezing chamber, incinerator room, and the famous “I Am Your Father” scene which is also a LEGO Ideas project that is currently under review. You can read more about some little teasers about the Cloud City set here.

Again as usual, these are purely rumors at this time until LEGO announces something in the distant future however these are some interesting details that are hard to ignore.

I’ve already done an unboxing on it so you can check it out if you want. With today being May the 4th, now is a very good time to finally release this review. First off, let me preface this review by saying sorry for the lateness of the review. My camera image data and part of the review got corrupted on my old laptop a few months ago and I’ve finally had time to rebuild and retype out what I’ve already done in between what was happening with Toys R Us and changing jobs.

LEGO Star Wars Black VIP Card Y-Wing (75181) Blueprint First Look

April 30, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Star Wars Black VIP Card Blueprint

A few days ago, I talked about some of the upcoming “exclusive” promotions that will be happening for the LEGO Black VIP card holders which includes a special blueprint poster of the LEGO Star Wars UCS Y-Wing (75181). It looks like we have our first look at this poster coming out of HelloBricks and it is said that Black Card holders can get it without a minimum purchase while non-card holders can get it with a minimum purchase. If you were looking for exclusiveness, unfortunately, you won’t find it here. Some of the other promotions that will be happening this weekend include:

– Free BB-8 (40288) with purchase of $75 or more.
– Double VIP ponts on most Star Wars items.
– Select sale items.
– Porg in-store Make and Take build

Update: I’ve gotten concrete information from a legitimate source the that the poster is only available for Black Card holders with a purchase of $35 or more. Non-card holders will not be able to get it.

LEGO Creative Personalities (40291) Promotional Set Revealed

April 28, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Creative Personalities (40291)

The May/June 208 German flyer is now available and inside there’s a new promotional set that looks to be very interesting. From June 4-24 with purchases of 65€, you can get a free LEGO Creative Personalities (40291) set which is a set based on Hans Christian Andersen and his stories. As you can see from the image above, it is a pop-up book build that shows Andersen writing a story outdoors on a cobblestone area. The other side of the book shows a water area with a white swan. This is presumably based on the popular fairy tale story, The Ugly Duckling.

There’s no word at this time whether or not this promotional set will be available here in the states. Maybe this set could be a hint to something we can also expect from LEGO Ideas. If you remember, the Pop-Up Book by JK Brickworks is currently under review on LEGO Ideas and this set could come out in conjunction with it as a gift-with-purchase set. This all depends on the Pop-Up Book coming out as the winner of the Third 2017 Review Stage but that announcement is still a long ways away. This is purely speculation by me but what are your guys’ thoughts about this little LEGO Creative Personalities (40291) set?

LEGO Star Wars Black VIP Card May the 4th Promotion?

April 28, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Star Wars Platinum R2-D2

When the LEGO Star Wars Black VIP card was announced, it was stated that there would be special promotions for card holders who purchased the UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) on the intial run. Fans have been wondering if they would ever get any promos or deals and it looks like there’s something coming next week during the May the 4th event.

There are now unconfirmed rumors that there will be a special sweepstakes for one of the platinum R2-D2 minifigures for Black VIP card holders. This comes from a reader who was told by LEGO store employees from their local store. I’m not sure of the legitimacy of this piece of news but if you’ve heard something similar, let us know in the comments below. Supposedly, there’s also a special blueprint poster of the UCS Y-Wing Starfighter (75181) given out to card holders as well which I’ve heard from a few places.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

Next week is the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event and there’s some clarification of the availability of the BB-8 (40288) polybag on the Shop@Home header. If you’ve received the spring catalog, the flyer for the promotion shows that the BB-8 polybag was only available on May 4. According to Shop@Home, the promo will now run through the whole weekend, while supplies last, which is good because not everyone may have time to do their shopping on that specific day and will be happy to know that they have some time to make their purchases. Some of the other promotions during the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event include:

– Double VIP ponts on most Star Wars items.

If you’ve been following the reveals of the summer 2018 LEGO Creator sets, you may already know about the Pirate Roller Coaster (31084) but did you know there’s another pirate themed set? There are now official images of another LEGO Creator set coming out of Alternate which shows the new Treehouse Treasures (31078). It is a 3-in-1 one set that has 260 pieces and the main build is the pirate-themed treehouse. The alternate builds include a small pirate ship and a skull island.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288) Polybag Review

April 25, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

Next week is the start of the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2018 event and the main item during the promotion is the BB-8 (40288) polybag. It consists of 48 pieces and you can get it on May 4th only with a purchase of $75 or more while supplies last.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

BB-8 is in the same scale as the R2-D2 from last year. The build is fairly simple and the base of it uses a basic cube technique. It also relies on five printed 4×4 dishes for the design of the body which is good.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

The bottom dish is attached to some plates which connects to the bottom of the cube while having a Technic joint to attach the head to.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

As for the head, it is also printed and uses the same dome piece as R2-D2 but with BB-8 design. As I said before, it attaches to the body using a Technic pin and the joint allows it to wobble. This is an easy technique but is also very effective as it simulates BB-8’s head movement.

One thing I don’t like about this build is the use of the dish on the bottom. Because there’s a stud on it, BB-8 has a tendency to tip over very frequently but he’s fine if you gently set him down.

LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288)

Overall, the LEGO Star Wars BB-8 (40288) polybag is a decent one that fits nicely to last year’s build. I also understand that some fans prefer the exclusive minifigures much more than the builds. The scale of BB-8 … Continue

LEGO City Summer 2018 Hospital (60204) Set Revealed

April 25, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO City Hospital (60204)

It’s been a long time since we’ve gotten one but there are now images of the new upcoming LEGO City Hospital (60204). If you’ve been collecting City sets, you would know that a LEGO hospital set has been really rare the past few years since the theme has been dominated by Police and Firefighting sets.

LEGO City Hospital (60204)

In this set, you get the three story hospital along with an ambulance as well as a helicopter. For the minifigures, there are doctors, nurses, paramedics, numerous patients including one in a wheelchair, and a family with a stroller.

All in all, the Hospital is a great addition to any City layout and for those who haven’t had a chance to get one before, this one is a great opportunity to add to your collection.

It was stated in a comment on my previous post about the show that the LEGO episode will focus on things that previous LEGO documentaries didn’t focus on. Whatever that means, it’ll be exciting to see what that could be.

LEGO Creator Pirate Roller Coaster (31084)

There are now more detailed images of the Pirate Roller Coaster (31084) from the summer 2018 wave of the LEGO Creator sets. This year is the year of the roller coasters and it’s due time that we get something like this to add to the Fairground subtheme for LEGO Creator line. The first roller coaster was introduced with The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Manor (70922) and it reuses some of the tracks in a new and more restrained color.

The 923 piece Pirate Roller Coaster is a 3-in-1 set which means that the main model can be changed into two other models using the same parts. The set pays homage to classic Eldorado Fortress (6276) with the Imperial Fortress and you also get a skull to go along with it. The other suggested builds include a small back and forth track and a mini-go-round.

LEGO Creator Modular Sweet Surprises (31077)

The official images of some of the summer 2018 LEGO Creator sets are now listed up on Amazon France. The images are still fairly blurry but but at least we get to see what we’re going to be getting in a few months especially the highly anticipated Pirate Roller Coaster which is a precursor to a rumored larger fairgrounds roller coaster that could be coming out according to the May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar. I’ll update this post with more higher quality ones and the rest of the sets when they become available.

Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it. I’m currently at Philly Brick Fest so I’ll do my posts whenever I have some free time.

LEGO Celebrates 10 Years of The Marvel Cinematic Universe

April 12, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

Earlier today, LEGO released a new image which is their version of the 10 year celebration poster of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it may give some hints on possible new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes minifigures. Some of the more notable things include a barely visible Wasp, War Machine, Bucky Barnes as well as Wong with updated printing.

This is interesting because they could show up in a summer release set for Infinity War similar to the Tanker Truck Takedown (76067) for Captain America: Civil War. This is purely speculation as I haven’t heard of any concrete information about it. There was a rumor late last year of the largest Infinity War set with set 76106 which could possibly include those characters.

Again, this poster could purely just be a promo image but we know that LEGO likes to throw in teasers so who knows. Sound off below of what you think this could mean.

If you’re looking to complete your collection of LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets, it looks like there’s a new polybag that has shown up over on Walmart called the Baby Velociraptor Playpen (30382). What’s a big theme release without a polybag, right? It contains 48 pieces and retails for $3.97 but it is currently not in stock at this time. The SKU is 396761494 if you’re searching on Brickseek to see if there are any locally. This polybag is the cheapest way to get the baby Velociraptor so I think it’ll be a very popular polybag when it comes out.

Train your own baby Velociraptor with this mini LEGO Jurassic World play set, featuring a playpen, shelter, feeding crane, drumstick, bone and water feeder.

You can now purchase the Runaways DLC for $2.99 or if you have the Deluxe Edition of the game, you can download it for free. Check out the press release below.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment today announced the release of Marvel’s Runaways Character and Level Pack, the new DLC for LEGO® Marvel Super Heroes 2. The pack, available at $2.99, adds a level and characters inspired by Brian K Vaughan’s iconic comic series, now a critically acclaimed television show, currently available to stream on Hulu.

LEGO BrickHeadz Incredibles 2 Mr. Incredible & Frozone (41613)

A few weeks ago, we got a first look at the upcoming LEGO BrickHeadz Incredibles 2 Mr. Incredible & Frozone (41613). There are now high quality official product images of the set and it looks even nicer especially with all the printed pieces included on both of the characters. I particularly like the printed googles on Frozone and I can see it being very useful on custom builds. Also note that all of the 2018 LEGO BrickHeadz sets do not have the printed tile for the base which makes me question why they did it with the previous ones. According to the Spring 2018 catalog, Mr. Incredible & Frozone (41613) will be available starting on April 20.

Two Exclusive Early Access LEGO Sets Coming in May

April 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO May 2018 Exclusives

The last important piece of news that comes out of the May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar is that LEGO has revealed there will be two new exclusive sets that will be available for Early Access for LEGO VIP members from May 16-31.

One of the sets that could be coming out for Early Access is the LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron (42083) which was teased back at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. The speculation comes from the announcement on the minisite for the set which shows that the release date had been pushed up to June 1 for world release. This makes sense as Early Access is a few weeks before the general release of the set.

LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron

The other set that will be coming out is a complete mystery to me. From what I’ve gathered online, it could be the Visitor’s Center from Jurassic Park as it has been heavily rumored. As we know by now, we’re already getting a Walmart exclusive 25th anniversary set called the Jurassic park Velociraptor Chase (75932) and there’s talk that it could somehow connect to the Visitor’s Center. But again, these are just rumors so we’ll get the information of the second Early Access set later this month or early next month.

What are your guesses on what the exclusives that will be coming out next month early for VIPs? Let us know in the comments below.

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Sets Releasing April 16

April 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

Get your wallets ready! The Spring 2018 LEGO Store Catalogs are now showing up in mailboxes for those who are still getting mail and inside we get more information of some of the upcoming set releases. For the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets, we’ve gotten a general mid-April release date for them but the catalog finally gives a firm release date for them as next Monday, April 16, at least here in the US.

Hopefully, LEGO has learned their lesson from the previous LEGO Jurassic World sets and made enough to go around as a few sets from the last wave had pretty limited quantities. I have a feeling that a few of these sets will be very popular among fans including the classic Jurassic Park set. Below are the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets that will be coming out next week.

Pteranodon Chase (75926) – $19.99 | 126 pieces

LEGO Jurassic World T. rex Transport (75933) First Look

April 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Jurassic World T. rex Transport (75933)

You may have thought that you’ve seen all of the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets but Walmart has another set that we haven’t had an official image of which is the T. rex Transport (75933). Yes, there was an image of the set on eBay but I didn’t want to report on that earlier. It has 609 pieces but the price point is still a mystery at this time. The minifigures in the set include Zia Rodriguez and two guards but you also get a baby dino as well as a full-sized T-Rex. This set was thought to be a Toys R Us exclusive but it looks like it’ll be available at Walmart as well as on Shop@Home.

Track the Tyrannosaurus Rex in this big-action play set scene inspired by Jurassic World and return it to the transporter, featuring a single-seater truck, detachable container with opening and lockable side panels, and a mobile laboratory unit.

This T. rex toy includes 3 minifigures and 2 dinosaur figures.

Includes 3 minifigures: Zia and 2 guards, plus 2 dinosaur figures.

Features a single-seater truck and a detachable trailer with a containment unit that has opening and lockable side panels, landing gear, plus a mobile medical unit and monitoring system with 2 transfusion leads.

T. rex features posable limbs, head and snapping jaws.

Weapons include a gun stud shooter and a shock prod.

Unlock the containers side panels and stage a T. rex escape!

LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597) Review

April 5, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597)

Ever since LEGO revealed the next iteration of the BrickHeadz line with Go Brick Me (41597), LEGO fans may think differently of this set even if they haven’t picked up a single BrickHeadz before. The idea of this set is that you are able to customize the BrickHeadz to your liking whether it be of yourself or pretty much anybody else. It has a generous 708 pieces and retails for $29.99 which is a great deal even if you do not intend to build a single BrickHeadz out of this set.

LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597)

Contents

There are are seven different bags along with the instruction booklet and a small sticker sheet. One of the bags is numbered which is used to build the blank BrickHeadz, aka Nonnie, which is used as a template.

The other bags have parts that are used to create your own unique BrickHeadz character. The one with the tan, brown, and dark orange bricks are used for BrickHeadz’ skin color while the colorful bag are used for building the torsos and legs. The parts in the other bags are separated into yellow, orange, brown, and black are used for the head and hair.

LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597)

The sticker sheet has a number of transparent decals that you can add on to the BrickHeadz for even more detailing. I especially like the Blacktron one as that particular one could be very popular among fans.

April 3, 2018 / / 0 Comments

We’re already a few days into April but you may have noticed that there’s no May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar that I usually report on at the beginning of the month. That’s because LEGO is keeping it under wraps for now for surprise promotions for the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event however there are already rumors of what one of the promotions will be. Word has it that BB-8 may be the polybag that will be given out as a gift with purchase and the size would be similar to R2-D2 (30611) from last year.

She joins the returning cast of Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Channing Tatum, and Jonah Hill with Mike Mitchell at the helm. There’s no mentioning on how Haddish will fit in to the sequel but it’ll be interesting to see how her character will be incorporated to the story.

The LEGO Movie 2 will be in theaters on February 8, 2019 unless it gets delayed.

LEGO City Train Sales on Amazon

March 25, 2018 / / 0 Comments

I haven’t done these posts in a while but Amazon currently has some LEGO City train sets on sale which price matches some other retailers. They are some of the older train sets from 2014 so they could be retired soon given that there’s a rumor of some new train sets coming this summer/fall. There are also some additional track sets that are on sale which are at their lowest prices ever on Amazon including the Flex Tracks (7499) and the Switch Tracks (7895).

High-speed Passenger Train (60051) – $117.19 (22% off)

LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy (21314) Designer Video

March 25, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy (21314) was announced last week and LEGO has released the designer video of the set. This video actually goes into the design process a little bit more than previous designer videos as a majority of the video talks about the set more rather than the LEGO designers Junya Suzuki and Mark Tranter. The LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy set will be available starting on March 31 for the retail price of $34.99.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 18

If you want to get your hands on the Series 18 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71021), you may want to your local Target store as they have started to appear at various locations. The price of them have stayed the same with them being $3.99 each. Finding them early is somewhat key if you hope to score the fairly exclusive Policeman minifigure which comes one per box. If you haven’t yet, check out my review of the series and see the breakdown of how many minifigures come in a new box of 60. If you have found them, let us know in the comments where you’ve found yours as it could help others as well.

LEGO The Incredibles Video Game

Last week, the internet kind of broke with the reveal of the teaser of the LEGO The Incredibles Video Game comign from the back of the instructions for LEGO Juniors Incredibles 2 sets. There weren’t many details except that it would be coming out for the PlayStation 4, PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, and XBox One.

There’s some new information that came out of Amazon Canada which revealed that the potential release date would be on June 15 which is the same day the movie comes out in theaters. Also on those listings, they’ve also revealed the box art for the PS4 and Nintendo Switch. The covers show Mr. Incredible in a bulkier LEGO form, Elastigirl, Violet Parr, Dashiell Parr, and Jack-Jack in the foreground with Frozone hovering the in background.

I’ve been told that the official announcement of the game from Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will be coming out soon so stay tuned for that. There’s no word on an exclusive minifigure to go with the game but I wouldn’t mind having a LEGO minifigure of Frozone since we haven’t had one before.

The Brick Fan Subreddit

Facebook recently has been making changes that don’t necessarily help page owners and with the recent news of the data privacy scandal, it’s time to make some changes around here. A few days ago, I start my own subreddit where I can post there without it not being seen by users as Facebook sometimes does. Some of you may have already subscribed to it when I posted on social media that I created the subreddit.

The subreddit also allows users to easily post their own content where without having to go look around FB on how to post on a particular page and it’s chronological, a very good feature.

Anyways, feel free to join the subreddit and connect on there as well. It looks pretty plain but I’ll change out the layout when I have time. Again, thank you everyone for your continued support as we keep evolving.

LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy (21314) BrickBros UK Review

The set will be available starting a day early on March 31 with the UK having a special signing event at the Leicester Square LEGO Brand Store on March 29.

Downloading from Devon, England, brothers Drew and Tom are the talented fan designers behind the LEGO® Ideas Tron: Legacy set.

Tom and Drew’s small childhood collection of LEGO bricks inspired them to come up with their own scenarios and builds. In designing their LEGO Ideas project, “We went through several models before settling on a design we both liked. We wanted to get the scale of the Light Cycle to minifigure right, and the overall colour scheme had to reflect the Tron feel.”

LEGO Objects to Toys R Us Liquidation Sales

March 21, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Toys R Us’ bankruptcy court hearing was yesterday and they’ve announced that the going out of business sales will being Thursday for the rest of the stores with it running until June or earlier if inventories sell out quicker. Toys R Us says they are working to make the maximum payments they can to the vendors as well as the banks as they are starting to close down more than 700 stores. They are also wanting to stop more than $450 million in payments to suppliers which is a move that will hurt smaller toy companies on their books.

According to a report by Reuters, there are more than 50 vendors, including LEGO, that have objected to the liquidation. Obviously LEGO would like to have their products back instead of having it sold at lower prices in order to make payments to the banks. This corresponds to the memo that I reported on seeing the other day that lists LEGO on the “Do Not Liquidate” list but there are also reports that some stores have listed LEGO sets at 10% off which are probably the older ones.

Since LEGO accidentally sent me another box of minifigures, I’ll also be choosing a few runner up winners, in no particular order. I’ll be contacting the winners to get their shipping details and whatnot through the platform used.

LEGO Star Wars Snoke's Throne Room (75216)

Today in anticipation of Star Wars: Episode VIII: The Last Jedi coming to home media next week, LEGO and Star Wars has released a new video called LEGO Star Wars: The Last Jedi in 2 Minutes which is basically an abridged version of the movie. In the middle of the video, we get to the scene in Snoke’s throne room and we may have gotten a sneak peek at the rumored set coming later this year tentatively called the same thing or The Throne Room Duel (75216). The set may not look exactly the same way but it’s assumed that it’ll look somewhat similar. For the play features of the set, it is said that it has a revolving elevator and another feature that drags Rey to the throne and the minifigures will include Snoke, Rey, Kylo Ren, and a couple of Praetorian Guards.

Toys R Us Closing Liquidation and LEGO Exclusives Details

March 19, 2018 / / 0 Comments

As we know by now, barring any miracles, all of the Toys R Us stores in the US will be closing in a few months and the main questions are will there be any LEGO sales and what will happen to the TRU exclusives. From the memo that I saw at work, all of the current promotions that are going on will finish out and the liquidation sales that people have been waiting for will start soon unless your store was from the initial wave of closings that were announced.

Also on the memo was the “Do Not Liquidate” list which includes LEGO. From what I saw, it pretty much included all of the newer LEGO sets. It has been talked about around the LEGO community that TRU will be sending all their LEGO products back to LEGO themselves and there will be no sales on the sets, at least the more recent ones. It’s nice to finally see some confirmation and stop with the guessing on whether or not there will be LEGO sales during the liquidation.

As for the TRU exclusives like the Bricktober sets or polybags, it’s hard to say what will happen to them at this time. Since LEGO probably has the rest of the year planned out already, they may have to do some reorganizing for the distribution or delay them. For example, it would be weird to send TRU labeled Bricktober sets to other retailers like Target and that won’t happen. It wouldn’t be a surprise if LEGO made a … Continue

It looks like that set has started to hit sheleves a little early at Walmart because a reader has emailed in a couple of images of the set that he was able to purchase at his location in Connecticut.

In addition, he also found the third LEGO Juniors Incredibles 2 set which is called Elastigirl’s Rooftop Pursuit (10759). The price was revealed to be $19.99 from the New York Toy Fair and it contains 95 pieces. The minifigures includes Elastigirl and another character.

Your mileage may vary but it’s worth checking out if you are looking forward to these sets. Thanks to Jay for emailing in the images.

LEGO Ranked Number 2 on 2018 Global CSR RepTrak 100

March 17, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has been announced as the second-most highly regarded company in the world on the 2018 RepTrak 100 survey. The Reputation Institute has annually done the survey in which LEGO ranked first last year but dropped just one spot this year which shows you how much the public still likes the company in terms of emotional appeal. This year also marks the eighth year in a row that LEGO has been in the top 10 on the survey. Check out the press release below.

BILLUND – March 15, 2018: Today, Reputation Institute released the annual RepTrak®100 survey. The LEGO Group maintains its rank from last year as the second-most highly regarded company in the world when it comes to corporate reputation.

Chief Executive Officer of the LEGO Group, Niels B. Christiansen, commented on the results:

“We are very happy and humbled to maintain such high regard by the public. It reflects the unique LEGO® idea and values, and the dedication our employees show every day to bring LEGO play to children all over the world. It is truly an honour to be embraced by the level of affinity that LEGO fans of all ages show us.”

“Since the LEGO brick was patented 60 years ago, we have been committed to inspiring and developing the builders of tomorrow. Our ambition to reach more children with LEGO experiences is more important than ever, and our purpose is what drives us and keeps us on our toes. What is truly important about this ranking is what lies behind it;

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet

Back in January, LEGO released an exclusive vintage LEGO Classic Bricks on a Roll (10715) and if you redeemed it via your receipt, you’re supposed to get the 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet. It looks like they have started to finally ship out and I’ve just received mine after I submitted my receipt at the end of January.

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet

The 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet comes in a standard white mailer and when you take it out, there’s also black envelope with the 60 Years logo wrapped around it. The cover of the booklet is again embossed with the logo and as you can see, they are numbered on the bottom left. My copy is a very low 482/15,000.

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet

Inside you get a history lesson of LEGO and the LEGO brick that is divided in to decades from the 1950’s to the 2010’s. Within each decade, there are some fun facts that you may not have known about unless you’re caught up with every bit of LEGO history. Did you know the first sets with building instruction manuals didn’t come out until 1964?

Toys R Us Will be Selling or Closing All US Stores

March 14, 2018 / / 0 Comments

It looks like the sun will be setting for Toys R Us permanently as The Wall Street Journal has reported that the company will sell or close all of its remaining stores in the United States. The news came from CEO David Brandon in a conference call to employees and it will result in about 33,000 people losing their jobs, me included. It was been reported that Toys R Us will file for liquidation ahead of the court hearing tomorrow. I’ve read that Toys R Us Canada will not be affected but Toys R Us UK will be closing their stores as well.

I started a Toys R Us a few years ago during the holiday season and was actually pretty excited for it. It was busy and I remember working long hours but it was worth it to see kids and adults happy. That all changed recently after the company filed for bankruptcy last year. The mood shifted and everyone was on edge thinking when our last day will be. I honestly still don’t know as the conference call happened after I got off work today. I will probably hear more about it tomorrow.

Just the feeling of walking into a legit toy store is different from your other retailers like Walmart or Target whose selection isn’t as vast as Toys R Us. I’m sure you’ve felt the same way as a child and maybe as an adult as well. I’m just sad that my future children won’t experience the same thing unless another toy-centric … Continue

LEGO wants you to build a 8×12 stud LEGO Friends Go-Kart vignette which has to consist of a Go-Kart along with some surrounding actions. This could be some characters preparing for the race, trees, street, part of a race track, or traffic signs. The build should only relate to LEGO Friends and fit into the Heartlake City universe. This means no third part IPs including LEGO IPs.

There will be one grand prize winner, who will receive:
-A collection of 12 upcoming LEGO Friends sets, shipped once they’ve available, valued at $430 USD
-Your choice of $600 USD worth of items from Shop.LEGO.com
-Trophy designed by a LEGO Friends designer

There will be two runners-ups, who will receive:

The trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald dropped earlier today and LEGO has revealed potentially one of the sets that will accompany the movie. The set features a Thestral-draen carriage along with Johnny Depp’s Grindelwald along with a female minifigure.

As for the original Jurassic Park set, it’s called the Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase (75932). This set shows the scene from Jurassic Park where Alan, Ellie, Lex, and Tim are in the control room with the velociraptor breaking in. If you look closely at the images, there are lots of easter eggs thrown in like the Dennis Nedry magic word screen and the cold storage room with the embryos.

LEGO Ideas Moments in Space Winning Model Controversy

March 12, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Ideas Moments in Space

The LEGO Ideas Moments in Space winner was announced a few weeks ago but when you first look at it, you wouldn’t think there would be some controversy behind it. As you can see above, the winning entry was a coin-operated space shuttle by mjsmiley that you can probably find in front of a supermarket or a convenience store.

This is where the controversy comes in or it may just be a big coincidence and people are looking too much into it. Samuel over on the Brickset Forums had been providing members of the forum with instructions for the 2016 LEGO Brand Manager Retail Conference build which is also a coin-operated shuttle, shown below. As you can see, they do have some similarities and the creator has stated that they’ve never seen the Retail Conference build before.

I decided to take a little time after the announcement to see what people were saying about it. I honestly don’t know if the build was intentionally ripped it off or not but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt however, others are still skeptical on the forums and on social media. I think it’s a cute little build that I’m looking forward to getting as a gift-with-purchase sometime next year. Plus I doubt that LEGO themselves didn’t forget about a set they’ve released for the retail side of the company. For now, I think it’s a legit entry to the contest with some creative differences in a similar building style.

LEGO Ideas Voltron (21311) Price Reported to be Around 179.99 Euros

March 11, 2018 / / 0 Comments

There still hasn’t been any information about the LEGO Ideas Voltron (21311) set since it was announced that it would be become an official set until now. A user on Reddit has reported that the set will be 179.99 Euro/829.99 PLN which is equivalent to about $199.99 USD. This will make the LEGO Voltron set the most expensive one for the LEGO Ideas theme.

Because of the rumored price point, we can expect that it will have the most pieces in a LEGO Ideas set considering how big it will be with the five lions. For me personally, I love Voltron and if you somehow found my personal Instagram, you’ll see that I collect a variety of Voltron toys and I’ve been very anxiously waiting for the reveal of the set. The price point won’t probably deter me from picking it up, maybe even two, to display it both in lion mode and in combined mode, however it also may not appeal to others because of the high price point. Since it may be a summer or fall release, hopefully we get to see it at San Diego Comic Con since it’ll be a very worthy set to be on display there.

LEGO Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition Modifications by Chubbybots

March 10, 2018 / / 0 Comments

If you’ve purchased the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition (76105), you may have noticed that it has somewhat limited articulation to it, especially with the knees. This is before LEGO mech builder Chubbybots came along and did some modifications to it to make it what it could’ve been in the first place. He doesn’t provide a parts list or instructions but he has released a video showing the techniques he used to give the Hulkbuster more movement in the joints as well as bulkier looking shoulders. Check out the video below and subscribe to his channel if you’re interested in more mech-type builds.

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path U-3PO

LEGO has revealed the U-3PO minifigure that’s in the upcoming LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path book that’s coming this summer. It’s a real disappointment as it looks to be the exact same as the one found in the LEGO Star Wars 2016 Advent Calendar unless my eyes deceive me. Usually the DK books will include an exclusive variant of a character but this is just lazy on both DK and LEGO’s part. If you didn’t get the advent calendar, the book is the cheapest way to get U-3PO unless you get it individually on BrickLink or eBay.

This is the first time in 12 years that profits has declined and net profit dropped 17%.

The top selling themes for 2017 include LEGO City, Star Wars, DUPLO, Creator, Friends. Star Wars remains a popular novelty theme and remains in line with their expectations.

Digitalization remains a high priority as LEGO Boost was on a lot of kids’ wishlist during the holiday season. The LEGO channel on YouTube is the number one brand channel on the site. LEGO Life continues to be a popular app among kids which gives them a safe place to share their creations.

– Revenue for the full year decreased by 8 percent to DKK 35.0 billion compared with DKK 37.9 billion in 2016. Excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange, revenue for the full year declined 7 percent compared with 2016.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Ultimate Batmobile (30526) Available at Toys R Us

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Ultimate Batmobile (30526)

If you’re looking for The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Ultimate Batmobile (30526), you may want to check out your nearest Toys R Us store as there are reports that they have started to show up there. The instructions show you how to build the regular Batmobile but there are additional instructions for the Bat-Tank and Batwing. The only downside is that you get enough parts in one polybag for one of the vehicles so you’ll have to purchase three polybags to create the complete thing. Like with the larger 70917 counterpart, you are able to connect all three together to create The Ultimate Batmobile.

In addition to Toys R Us, the polybag has also been seen at Fred Meyer as well as LEGOLAND parks/Discover Centers. The only upside to TRU is that they are more widespread than the others, minus the ones that are closing.

The LEGO Group Annual Results 2017

The LEGO Group will be announcing their 2017 Annual Results tomorrow at 10:00AM CET (1:00AM PST). Last year at September, they released the financial details for the first half of 2017 and it showed that revenue was down compared to the same period in 2016. As a result, LEGO had to restructure the company which meant that they had to move some people around as well as trimming about eight percent of their workforce.

The press conference tomorrow will be revealing the numbers for last year as well as the top LEGO themes and sets. Hopefully, they’ll go into details of what contributed to the lost revenue at least in the first half of 2017. Maybe the second half of the year with the holiday shopping season helped balance everything out but we shall see. I’ll try to stay up for it but I’ll probably get knocked out because I have to work early tomorrow morning.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Hulkbuster Art Print Details

March 3, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Hulkbuster Art Print (5005573)

Today was the release of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition (76105) and whether you purchased it online or got it at a LEGO Brand Store early, you will receive two different prints illustrated by Roy Lim. I decided to take the chance and went to my LEGO Store to get it and upon inspection of the prints, they are more high quality than the usual posters we’ve gotten before. These are not the paper type posters but more of a thicker card stock with some texturing on both sides of it and the size of them are 10″ x 13″.

The thicker card stock means that they will get a crease in them if ever they get folded or get hit on the sides. This is a reason why I went to the LEGO Store instead of purchasing it online so I could keep them in near pristine condition. I have a feeling that they will get damaged in the shipping boxes unless they are in some protective envelopes.

As for the Hulkbuster set itself, it is currently now on backorder and will ship by March 17 as of this post. I also noticed that the sketch print no longer shows up in the cart as it appears to have sold out but the colored version is still available.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition (76105)

The LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition (76105) is now available for purchase on Shop@Home. The set retails for $119.99 and it is a Marvel UCS version of the Hulkbuster from the 76031 set from 2015.

I’ve heard there are a limited number of the print sketch by Ron Lim so jump on it if you want to get one. As I mentioned before, LEGO Brand Stores may only limited quantities of the sketch print depending on how many they got in today.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Teen Groot Keychain (5005244) Revealed

March 2, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Teen Groot (5005244)

The Singapore LEGO Certified Store, Bricks World, has revealed a new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Teen Groot (5005244) Keychain polybag that will be released in the near future. I believe this is the third keychain polybag that LEGO has released so far with the first two being the Kiss Kiss Batman and Master Wu.

This version of Teen Groot has it with an angry expression which is different from the one found in the Thor’s Weapon Quest (76102) so that’s a little disappointing for those want regular minifigure with that expression.

There’s no word yet on availability here in the US but it’ll probably be part of a LEGO promotion in an upcoming month. The original date for the Avengers: Infinity War release was in May before it got bumped up so it’s possible that we could see it then.

The Italian March/April 2018 LEGO Store promotional booklet has been released and on the back of it, it shows that the LEGO Ideas Tron (21314) will be released in April. There hasn’t been any details of the set ever since it was announced as the next official LEGO Ideas set. Since Tron will be released in April, it looks like the reveal won’t be long so stay tuned for that.

The LEGO Ideas Moments in Space contest was a really popular one and LEGO has announced the winner and the model that will be turned into a Gift with Purchase set in the near future. And the winner is…Cosmic Rocket Ride! (Coin Operated) by mjsmiley. I had a feeling that this model would be chosen as it had lots of appeal and the LEGO judges felt the same way. You can check out the judging breakdown and the rest of the runner up builds as well an honorable mention winner in the link above.

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) Promotion Coming Back in April

LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376)

Back in December right when the promotion for the LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Pod (5005376) was about to begin, LEGO announced that it would be cancelled due to part of it not meeting quality standards. Fast forward a few months and it looks like LEGO has fixed whatever issue it had and the promotion will be back on from April 13 – May 3. The promo will be similar to before where you have to spend $60 or more on a LEGO Star Wars purchase. The only difference is that the promotional period is shorter and will end right before the May the 4th promo begins. I know there’s a specific niche of collectors who like these pod type sets and will be glad to know that the Darth Vader Pod wasn’t completely cancelled, just delayed.

LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358) Coming in April

March 1, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358)

LEGO will celebrating the 40th anniversary of the LEGO minifigure in April and there are things happening next month to commemorate the event. One of the things is the release of the Series 18 LEGO Collectible Minifigures which will have a special Classic Police Officer to find. Another thing they are doing is releasing an exclusive promotional LEGO Minifigure Factory (5005358). According to the April 2018 LEGO Store Calendar, you can get for free with a purchase of $75 or more from April 1-15, while supplies last.

The set itself looks like it will be using the cardboard box it comes in as part of the layout. The build will include a factory with some microfigures such as a classic spaceman, a policeman, and what looks to be P.I.X.A.L. from Ninjago as well as a red wagon on the side. The minifigure also looks interesting as it seems to have a nice looking yellow shirt. One of the bummers of this set is that it does use part of the box as the setting and not using LEGO bricks to create the walls. I think this is a misstep but we’ll have to get a clearer look when the official images come out in a few weeks to make a judgement on it.

What do you think of the set and will you be picking it up next month?

LEGO Launches Initiative for Sustainable LEGO Bricks and Boxes

March 1, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has launched a new initiative to start producing LEGO plant elements using plant-based plastic that is created from sugarcane. There will also be LEGO boxes that will be using the same methods as well and we can expect those already for 2018. This move is part of The LEGO Group’s dedication to use sustainable materials in a majority of their products and packaging by 2030. It’ll be interesting to see how if there are any notable differences in the plant elements and how they hold up in the run.

LEGO® botanical elements such as leaves, bushes and trees will be made from plant-based plastic sourced from sugarcane in the future and will appear in LEGO boxes already in 2018.

Production has started on a range of sustainable LEGO® elements made from plant-based plastic sourced from sugarcane. The new sustainable LEGO ‘botanical’ elements will come in varieties including leaves, bushes and trees.

“At the LEGO Group we want to make a positive impact on the world around us, and are working hard to make great play products for children using sustainable materials. We are proud that the first LEGO elements made from sustainably sourced plastic are in production and will be in LEGO boxes this year. This is a great first step in our ambitious commitment of making all LEGO bricks using sustainable materials,” said Tim Brooks, Vice President, Environmental Responsibility at the LEGO Group.

The move is part of the LEGO Group’s commitment to use sustainable materials in core products and packaging by 2030.

Even More LEGO BrickHeadz Rumored for 2018

February 28, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO BrickHeadz

Last week, I talked about some of the upcoming 2018 LEGO BrickHeadz sets which included the new Justice League, Back to the Future, and Minecraft as well as some Wizarding World BrickHeadz sets as announced during the New York Toy Fair. I’ve just received some new information for even more BrickHeadz sets from other themes that will be coming later this year. These BrickHeadz sets will encompass Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Frozen, and Star Wars.

First for the Wizarding World BrickHeadz, there will be two sets, one possibly of Newt Scamander and a two pack most likely consisting of Harry Potter and Hermione Granger.

For Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, it is rumored be a two pack as well. The characters will most likely be of Owen and Claire but I’m hoping for one of them to be Ian Malcolm.

For Frozen, there will be two sets, one with Elsa and another two pack of Anna and Olaf.

Lastly for Star Wars, there are supposedly four sets in the pipeline which include Darth Vader, Stormtrooper, Boba Fett, and a two pack of Luke Skywalker and Yoda.

As always, these are purely rumors unless LEGO announces them or they are revealed on online toy shop product pages.

Justice League – Tactical Batman & Superman (41610) – $19.99
Back to the Future – Marty McFly & Doc Brown (41611) – $19.99
Minecraft – Steve & Creeper (41612) – $19.99
Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (41614) – $19.99

Next up on my reviews of the 2018 LEGO Speed Champions set, the next one that I’ll be taking a look at is the Ferrari 488 GT3 “Scuderia Corsa” (75886). The set contains 179 pieces and will retail for $14.99 starting on March 1. We’ve already had a few Ferraris that have been released for the Speed Champions theme but let’s see if the Scuderia Corsa is a worthy addition to your collection. The contents of the box include three unnumbered bags, a bag of rims, the instruction booklet, a sticker sheet, and a loose chassis.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes March 3-4 Offers Revealed

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Art Print (5005573)

According to the March 2018 LEGO Store Calendar, there will be some special offers to kick off the release of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Avengers: Infinity War sets and it looks like LEGO has revealed the offers for this weekend.

There are three offers that will be available only for this weekend. The first offer is the regular color Marvel art print (5005573) with a LEGO Marvel Super Heroes purchase of $25 or more which you can see above.

Next up is probably the best one which is the limited edition art print sketch (5005574) of the Hulkbuster by Marvel illustrator Ron Lim when you purchase The Hulkbuster: Ultron Edition (76105). This offer is only available for LEGO VIP members.

The last offer is the free LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Guardians’ Ship (30525) with a Marvel purchase of $75 or more.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes The Guardian's Ship (30525)

Technically you can get all three offers in one single swoop when you purchase the Hulkbuster since it meets all the requirements. The only issue when ordering on Shop@Home is if the prints are protected or will they be folded up which will be a major disappointment. I would suggest heading to a LEGO Brand Store to make your purchase to ensure the prints are in pristine condition when you get them. All three offers are available on Shop@Home until March 4 or while supplies last. I’ve been told that stores may not have many Hulkbusters and the sketch prints available to last both days so I suggest getting in line … Continue

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet Update

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet

A lot of you who have purchased the LEGO Classic Bricks on a Roll (10715) from Walmart in hopes of getting the free collectible booklet have asked whether others have gotten it or not even though they’ve submitted their receipt weeks ago. I’ve seen one or two images of the booklet online but the majority of readers who have contacted me have not received theirs at this time.

For me, I submitted my receipt on January 30 and haven’t gotten anything back so far. I’ve emailed customer service and they’ve escalated my case to an “account manager” to look into it. I’ve had others who have emailed in who have also contacted customer service and they stated that the booklets are actually shipping out today, February 26. I’m not sure if this is the case for everyone but it’s worth contacting [email protected] to see what’s going on. Thanks to Fergus for the update on this.

In similar news, there’s only two days left to purchase the LEGO Classic Bricks on a Roll (10715) to be eligible for the booklet if it ever releases. Overall, it’s been somewhat short of a disappointment of how LEGO/Walmart has handled this 60th anniversary promotion so far from this booklet issue to the release of the three limited edition sets. Hopefully there’s still something up LEGO’s sleeve for the rest of the year.

LEGO NINJAGO Build Your Own Adventure: Greatest Ninja Battles

Continuing with some of the upcoming LEGO books this summer, there’s also a new LEGO Ninjago book that will be available starting in August. DK has previously some of the Build Your Own Adventure books in the past but there’s a new one called LEGO Ninjago Build Your Own Adventure: Greatest Ninja Battles. The book will be updated with some of the new Sons of Garmadon villains as well as ones that came after the previous book. As with the other books, there will be a LEGO minifigure as well as an exclusive model. There’s no word on what the build will be but there’s an outline of it on the cover.

LEGO Star Wars Choose Your Path

Back when I was in grade school, there were these popular books called Choose Your Own Adventure in which you, the reader, are taken through an adventure and you’ll face options at various points to be taken to a number of different endings. This summer, DK will be releasing their own CYOA book with LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path which has the same premise. The book has 128 pages and will be available on June 5.

As with many other DK books, there will also be a minifigure included as well. Note that it doesn’t say “exclusive” minifigure so it could be one that has already been released. We’ll just have to wait and see who it will be as we get closer to the release date.

You can pre-order it now on Amazon for $19.99 with free shipping for Prime members who also get the Pre-order Price Guarantee.

Be the hero of this book and choose where to go in the LEGO® Star Wars(TM) galaxy. Learn how to battle, who to team up with, which side of the Force to join, plus much, much more.

Will you choose to join the rebels over Scarif, or to fly after the Inquisitor? On Mustafar, do you dare to battle Anakin, or will you join him on the dark side of the Force?!

It looks like they’re doing it again this year as a number of stores around the country are selling them again for only $1.99 each which is a great deal on some retired and soon to be retired expansion packs. All of the packs are still currently working even though LEGO Dimensions has been officially cancelled but there will be no new content. It seems that the 99 Cents stores have different inventories so I can say for sure which store has what so you’ll have to check out what your location has.

LEGO Boost Ninjago Stormbringer (70652) Product Demonstration

Back at the 2018 New York Toy Fair, LEGO showed off some new products and one of the new things that I haven’t seen much of on other outlets is a product demonstration of the LEGO Ninjago Stormbringer (70652). We already know that it will be available on August 1 for $39.99 but over on Pixel Dan’s channel, there’s a live demonstration of the set. When you connect it with LEGO Boost (17101), you can program the Stormbringer to do a variety of functions including leg movement, head and movement, and even roaring sounds. The set looks a little crude but it does bring kids in to teach them the basics of programming with LEGO Boost and the Stormbringer is the first of hopefully many more add-ons to the base system.

LEGO DC Super Heroes Visual Dictionary

We haven’t talked about any LEGO books in quite a while but it looks like there’s now an image of the upcoming LEGO DC Super Heroes Visual Dictionary that is slated to come out later this year. It is basically an updated version of the LEGO DC Universe Super Heroes: Batman Visual Dictionary but this book will include pretty much everything LEGO DC-related that has been released from the past few years. You’ll also notice the blank space for an exclusive super hero minifigure which is basically the main draw for most fans. There’s no word yet on who this character is but hopefully it’s somebody that we haven’t gotten before. Chances are it’s another variant of an existing character but it’s fun to guess. Who do you think this exclusive minifigure will be?

Anyways, you can now pre-order the book on Amazon and it’ll be released on September 4. You also get the Amazon pre-order price guarantee where if the price drops after you place your order before the release date, you’ll only pay the lowest price that it’s offered at.

The video was released last week but due to the hooplah of the 2018 New York Toy Fair, it was overlooked.

Toys R Us Reported to Close Additional 200 Stores

February 22, 2018 / / 0 Comments

You may have already heard this on the news but The Wall Street Journal is reporting that Toys R Us may close another 200 stores in addition to the 180 that was previously announced last month. This reported wave of closings will cut the number of stores in the US nearly in half. Honestly, I didn’t hear anything about the closings when I went in to work today after I read up on a few articles before going in. Supposedly there was a also conference call to discuss the future plans but I don’t see any articles of the results. I’ll see what information is known when I go back tomorrow.

If the new closings are true, that means it’ll be even harder for LEGO fans to get some of the exclusive items like polybags various sets that Toys R Us carries. It’ll be interesting to see if these exclusives are shifted to other retailers like Walmart and Target. To be fair, even though I work at Babies R Us, I do like shopping at TRU for some of the LEGO exclusives as well other stuff I collect. The only thing that bugs me about this whole thing is the bonuses that go to the executives instead to using this money to reinvest into the company. Maybe that’s not how it works and why I run a LEGO blog instead of a large company.

LEGO Ranks #6 on Fast Company’s Top 10 Most Innovative Companies Consumer Electronics List

February 22, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Fast Company has released their list of the 2018 edition of the World’s Most Innovative Companies and LEGO was named as the #6 company out of 10 under the Consumer Electronics category. The main reason for that LEGO was honored in this category was because of boosting children’s coding skills by the way of LEGO Boost. LEGO Life, which was launched last year, also contributed to the company being named in the Consumer Electronics category. This app allows children to share their creations online in a safe environment. Check out the press release that LEGO has released regarding the honor.

LEGO Group earns no. 6 spot on list of Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Consumer Electronics

NEW YORK (February 20, 2018) – Fast Company today announced its annual ranking of the world’s Most Innovative Companies (MIC) for 2018, honoring leading enterprises and rising newcomers that exemplify the best in business and innovation, which includes the LEGO Group at number six on the Top 10 Most Innovative Companies in Consumer Electronics list. Editors noted that the iconic toy brand made the list for boosting children’s coding skills.

In 2017, the LEGO Group introduced two significant innovations to further bridge the divide between physical and digital play: LEGO® BOOST and LEGO® Life.

LEGO BOOST is a super-charged LEGO set that lets children as young as seven years old bring their LEGO creations to life through a simple, app-based coding language. Embracing a “fun-first” vision, LEGO BOOST empowers children in both the physical and digital creation of

The 2018 New York Toy Fair is now over and there was a lot of LEGO news that came out that you may have missed so here’s a little recap of some of the more notable news items from the event.

LEGO Announces the Return of Harry Potter

Probably the biggest thing that LEGO announced during the Toy Fair was the return of Harry Potter in a new LEGO Wizarding World theme that encompasses both the Harry Potter universe as well as Fantastic Beasts. The first set that was revealed in this theme was the Hogwarts Great Hall (75954) which retails for a modest $99.99 for a 878 piece set.

February 20, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Here’s some early morning news as the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) is now back in stock on Amazon at regular price exclusively for Prime members. It seems that Amazon has been restocking the set more frequently than on Shop@Home which is weird. I have no idea how much stock they have so get on it if you don’t have it yet.

Update: Sorry folks, it looks like it’s gone for now.
Update 2: It looks like they’re coming back in stock in small batches.

New LEGO BrickHeadz Sets Rumored for 2018

February 19, 2018 / / 0 Comments

At the 2018 New York Toy Fair, we finally got to see the newly revealed Go Brick Me (41597) coming in April but there’s also a new LEGO BrickHeadz rumor that I did not hear about until today. It looks like the LEGO BrickHeadz theme will be expanding to more licenses with some of their upcoming products.

According to Falconfan1414 over on Eurobricks, it seems that there are a couple of more BrickHeadz for Justice League as there will be one for Tactical Batman and Superman coming in May as a two pack for $20. The designs of the BrickHeadz will be similar to the suits in the Flying Fox: Batmobile Airlift Attack (76087).

In addition, there will be a Back to the Future Marty McFly & Doc Brown set coming in May for $20 as well. If this rumor is true, it’s nice to see that LEGO is again utilizing the BTTF license they had for the LEGO CUUSOO and Dimensions sets.

Finally, there will also be a two pack Minecraft BrickHeadz set coming in August featuring Steve and the Creeper. It’ll be interesting to see how the legs of the Creeper will be recreated in the BrickHeadz form.

As always, these are just rumors until LEGO announces them or they show up early at online retailers.

LEGO City Hot Dog Stand (30356)

Valentine’s Day is over and that means that Target has pretty much changed over to the Easter layout which means new polybags are now available here in the US. The only new one I’ve found so far is the LEGO City Hot Dog Stand (30356) for $3.99 each but there’s still the older LEGO Creator Cute Pug (30542) as well. The Hot Dog Stand was first available in the EU last month during a Shop@Home promotion. It’s a good addition in any City layout and the most interesting parts for me are the larger wheels which are still fairly rare.

LEGO Star Wars Solo: A Star Wars Story

A few weeks ago, Star Wars revealed some new teaser character posters for Solo: A Star Wars Story and today, LEGO recreated those same posters in their own unique way, in LEGO form of course. The vintage looking posters show a young Han Solo along with Chewbacca, Qi’Ra, and Lando Calrissian with a small image of the Kessel Run Millennium Falcon being chased by some TIE Fighters. Hopefully LEGO releases these posters as a promotional item similar to The LEGO Batman Movie ones.

The LEGO Star Wars Solo: A Star Wars Story sets come out this April and we’ll probably start seeing the rest of the sets most likely next month. That’s if they don’t show up earlier at some online retailers sooner than that.

LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597) Revealed

February 18, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Yesterday at the New York Toy Fair, we saw a few new products coming down the pipeline but the most interesting one to me that I want to feature is the new LEGO BrickHeadz Go Brick Me (41597). You basically have the mascot of the BrickHeadz line, Nonnie, as well as a number of parts to customize it to your liking.

Coming in at 708 pieces and only retailing for $29.99, this set is a great deal and an even better one if you’re just buying it for a parts pack. As you can see from the image below, there are a number of different parts ranging in a variety of colors. Some of the more interesting parts are the new elements for glasses which includes round and square eyeglass frames. There’s also a sticker sheet to give more detailing to your BrickHeadz as well.

Thanks to BZPower and Zusammengebaut for providing the images.

Creative Toy of the Year – LEGO Make Your Own Movie

Specialty Toy of The Year – LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192)

LEGO picked up three awards last night for LEGO Star Wars BB-8 as the Construction Toy of the Year, LEGO Boost for Tech Toy of the Year, and the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon for the Specialty Toy of the Year. This is the second year in a row that LEGO has won for Construction and Specialty Toy of the Year.

With some of the new LEGO products coming out this year, I’m sure we’ll be seeing LEGO again on the ballot in a few categories and they have a great chance for the coveted Toy of the Year award.

LEGO Unikitty!

LEGO has officially announced that we’ll be getting some LEGO Unikitty! sets as well as a collectible series this August based on the Cartoon Network animated series.

The sets are numbered from 41451-41455 and the collectible series is 41775. Note that it doesn’t say “collectible minifigure series” so perhaps they are the rumored Mixel type builds for each of the characters in the show.

Nothing more is known at this time as they were not shown off at the 2018 New York Toy Fair. It is possible that we’ll most likely see them at San Diego Comic Con in a few months.

LEGO Seasonal Year of the Dog (40235) Review

February 14, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Seasonal Year of the Dog (40235)

The Chinese Lunar New Year kicks off this Friday, February 16 and it is a very important holiday for the countries that celebrate it around the world. According to the Chinese Zodiac, 2018 is the Year of the Dog and to celebrate LEGO will be releasing the Year of the Dog (40235) set with purchases of $88 or more at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home starting this Friday. If you think the purchase requirement seems a little off, that is because the number 8 in the Chinese culture is considered very lucky and $88 signifies double joy/prosperity. This also marks the first time in the US that we can get these Year of the Zodiac sets and we don’t have to rely on friends or the secondary market to get it.

The Year of the Dog set is the fourth of these small boxed sets and fifth overall if you count the 4-in-1 Year of the Snake (10250) set from 2013. The box is very cute showing off the Dog and there’s even a space to put a name down for the person you want to gift this set to. The back of the box shows off some of the articulation features of the Dog.

Opening up the flapped box, you are greeted with an envelope along with three un-numbered bags and the instructions.

The Billion Brick Race Loses Director

February 12, 2018 / / 0 Comments

Way back in 2015, I reported that Warner Bros. was working on a new animated LEGO film called The Billion Brick Race. Originally, Jason Segel and Drew Pearce were on board to co-direct the film but was eventually replaced with The Book of Life’s Jorge R. Gutierrez in 2017. Fast forward to today where Gutierrez has announced that he has also left the project.

“I would like to publicly and from the bottom of my heart thank everyone I worked with at Briksburg, LEGO and WAG. These last 9 months were a rollercoaster of thrills to say the least. I met so many amazing new people and learned a ton from all these incredible artists, directors, writers, editors, producers and execs. I leave a better filmmaker and it’s because of you all. May our paths cross again. Gracias mis amigos. And as I toasted on my first day there, ‘May we slip n slide on the blood of our enemies!!!'”

The Billion Brick Race is still tentatively scheduled for a 2019 release which also includes The LEGO Movie Sequel releasing in the same year. There’s no word from Warner Bros. whether or not any of the two movies will be pushed back at this time.

If you’re in the US and are looking for the LEGO 30499 polybag, Walmart may be the place you need to head to. It seems that various Walmart locations are now stocking the polybag. It can also be found at LEGOLAND and LEGOLAND Discovery Centers as well. As for the set itself, it’s basically just a bunch of random parts for a free build. There are also instructions to create the models shown on the front of the polybag. It’s nothing too spectacular but polybag collectors will probably want to pick it up.

Ford Takes a Look at the LEGO Speed Champions Mustang Fastback

LEGO Speed Champions Mustang Fastback (75884)

The new 2018 wave of the LEGO Speed Champions sets will be coming out very soon and Ford has released a press release for their 1968 Mustang Fastback. This set will join five other sets in the wave and we’ll be taking a look at all of these sets when they become available.

LEGO Speed Champions Mustang Fastback (75884)

Ford and LEGO® are celebrating Ford’s heritage by adding a 1968 Mustang fastback race car to the LEGO Speed Champions lineup.

As a tribute to America’s favorite sports car, the 183-piece Ford Mustang kit features green bodywork with gold dual stripes and wheels, race graphic stickers, removable windscreen and a mini-figure driver wearing a classic racing suit. For added fun, the race car set includes a Ford-branded timing board.

“The new Ford Mustang LEGO Speed Champions set gives parents and children the chance to share their passions – generations of fans have grown up building LEGO sets and spending time together behind the wheel,” said Myra Lind, LEGO Speed Champions marketing manager. “This partnership of iconic brands allows kids of all ages to enjoy the latest products from two great companies.”

As a natural fit for the new 2018 Mustang launch – the most personalized Mustang ever – Ford’s Design and Licensing teams worked closely with LEGO to create a 1968 Mustang fastback race car set that speaks to the passion, creativity and personalization pony car fans will appreciate.

Post Your Entries for the LEGO Ideas Moments in Space Contest

February 10, 2018 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Ideas Moments in Space

Yesterday, I reported that the crowd voting stage for the LEGO Ideas Moments in Space contest was underway. This stage is to find the top 25 entries out of a whopping 1,065 entries who participated. I’ve been asked by readers a few times already to feature their entries. While I can’t feature every single one, I’ll allow participants to leave a comment below to show off their own builds.

You may have noticed on each entry page that it doesn’t show the voes even though you have voted on a particular entry. According Hasan in the LEGO Ambassador Network, “The votes are intentionally hidden for this phase and will be revealed at the end of the contest.” This allows a level playing field since nobody knows how many votes an entry has gained. This also makes the whole thing a popularity contest to find the top 25 entries. I suggest using the filters to find which entries have the most discussions to gauge what is popular at the moment for the contest.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Infinity War Sets Found in the Wild

February 9, 2018 / / 0 Comments

It looks like we have our first look at the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Infinity War sets which comes from an overseas toy shop. There are two sets that are on sale there, the Outrider Dropship Attack (76101) and The Hulkbuster Smash-Up (76104).

As we can see, the Outrider Dropship Attack includes minifigures of Captain America, Black Widow, and an Outrider. The Hulkbuster Smash-Up has minifigures of Bruce Banner, Falcon, Proxima Midnight, and an Outrider.

Note that the prices on the sets are probably in Singapore Dollar and not in USD. In addition to these sets, there are supposed to be four more sets in the wave. Now that the LEGO Infinity War sets are now being sold, hopefully we’ll get to see the official images of the sets soon.

In a surprise, the Walmart exclusive LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Truck (4000030) is now available for purchase on Walmart.com.

Like with the previous anniversary sets, this one will also go for $19.97 each and you can either have it shipped to your location or you can pick it up at your preferred store.

While we wait for Black Panther to hit theaters next week, there are some LEGO sales on the previous Marvel movie, Thor: Ragnarok.

LEGO Classic Walmart 60th Anniversary Sets Limited to 5000 Each (Update)

February 7, 2018 / / 0 Comments

The two exclusive limited edition LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary sets from Walmart that have been released so far have been a hit or a miss for fans as they don’t seem to be worth the cost of the sets however that doesn’t stop people from purchasing them. If you’ve already received your sets already, you may have noticed that there is a numbered sticker on them to signify the limited quantities for them and it looks like we now know how many of the sets were produced and it’s not that many.

According to an image shown on Reddit, LEGO customer service has confirmed there are only 5,000 of each of the three sets and there will be no more produced after this run. This means that if you weren’t able to get them when they are released on the first day, you’re probably out of luck unless you turn to the secondary market where flippers are basically selling them for double the retail price.

As an eBay Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

As for the sets themselves, you’re most likely buying them for collectability reasons and not to build them as you can probably recreate them using the LEGO parts from your collection. I’m still waiting for my sets to come in as I had a scare when Walmart told me they were backordered but it seems they both shipped out yesterday. The last set is the Truck (4000030) and will be available in a few days.

Could We Be Getting a Classic LEGO Jurassic Park Set?

February 6, 2018 / / 10 Comments

We already know that we’ll be getting some LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets this April but will we also be getting a classic Jurassic Park set as well? There’s rumors going around that we could possibly get a set or sets that will include minifigures of Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler, Tim, and Lex Murphy. There’s also talks about a new Dilophosaurus figure that is different from the than the Dilophosaurus Ambush (75916) from 2015. One could assume that this set could be the iconic green and yellow Ford Explorer as seen in Jurassic Park.

Of course this is just pure speculation and none of it could be true at all until LEGO announces something in the future. Even though this is just conjecture, it’s cool to talk about what we could be getting if LEGO does decide to come out with a classic Jurassic Park line. What would you like to see come out?

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Carnotaurus

Last week at the 2018 Nuremberg Toy Fair, we saw official images of some of the upcoming LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets and it looks like there’s a teaser over on the Norway LEGO theme page for Jurassic World of one of the new dinosaurs in the movie.
