LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: The Awesome Guide Exclusive Wonder Woman Minifigure Revealed

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: The Awesome Guide

In a couple of months, DK will be releasing a new LEGO book called LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: The Awesome Guide. The book will also include an exclusive minifigure. It was presumed that it might have been the John Stewart Green Lantern minifigure but that is not correct. As we can see from the image above, it has been revealed that the minifigure included with the book is actually David Finch’s Post-New 52 Wonder Woman. She now dons a red top and boots with blue sleeves and pants which debuted in the comics a few years ago.

The image above is a little misleading and the Wonder Woman minifigure next to the blue dot that says exclusive is not the one included. The one inside the book is the one that is exclusive. Here’s a zoomed in image of it.

Thanks to Gustavo on our Facebook Page for the heads up.

Go behind the scenes with all of your favourite Super Heroes and Super-Villains in the action-packed, fact-filled LEGO® DC Super Heroes The Awesome Guide.

Join the stars of the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes sets on epic adventures and in thrilling battles. Learn about their superpowers, weapons, vehicles and secret identities. Starring Wonder Woman™, Superman™, The Flash™, Brainiac™ and many, many more. Includes an exclusive LEGO® DC Comics Super Heroes minifigure!

The LEGO Batman Movie Scavenger Hunt This Saturday at Target

If you’ve been to Target, you may have noticed a display for a The LEGO Batman Movie event coming up this Saturday, February 18 from 10am to 1pm. There has been no information about it until now when the weekly ad was released.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Ultimate Batmobile (70917) Individual Vehicles Revealed

A few days ago, The LEGO Batman Movie The Ultimate Batmobile (70917) was announced and it was stated that it was able to separate into four different vehicles including the Batmobile, Batwing, Bat-Tank, and Batcycle but there were no images of that.

Earlier today, there’s an image that showed up on Reddit which shows The Ultimate Batmobile separated into the four vehicles. The post doesn’t give the source but it’s from a book which I assume is from the upcoming The LEGO Batman Movie: The Making of the Movie.

The set will be released on June 1 and will retail for $129.99. It contain eight minifigures including Batman, Robin, Batgirl, Polka-Dot Man, Alfred Pennyworth (in Batsuit), Wicked Witch of the West, and two Flying Monkeys. What do you guys think of the set now that you’ve seen it separated?

The LEGO Batman Movie Batgirl (30612) Polybag to be Target Exclusive

Last night, I reported on the new image of The LEGO Batman Movie Batgirl (30612) polybag. There was no information on the availability of it until now.

As you can see from the image above, the polybag will be exclusive to Target and will be included with the home version of The LEGO Batman Movie which will also have some postcards as well. There’s no mentioning of which version in the image but the OP said it might be with a Blu-Ray bundle which sounds right considering that other movies that had LEGO minifigures were in the Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital HD bundle.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batgirl (30612) Polybag Image Found

If you think you’re done seeing and collecting everything you can for The LEGO Batman Movie, guess again. There’s now an blown up official image of the Batgirl (30612) polybag that has showed up online. From the looks of it, the polybag just features Batgirl with a couple of yellow Batarangs with no discernible differences from what we have now. There’s no word yet on when or how the Batgirl (30612) polybag will be available but I let you know when the time comes.

Update: I’ve been told that Batgirl does come with an exclusive head.

The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) Review

The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607)

The LEGO promotion for The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) polybag is now live at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home. You can get it free with purchases of $75 or more, while supplies last. The polybag includes two exclusive minifigure variants of Batman that is part of wide variety of suits from the movie.

Disco Batman

Disco Batman has a vintage looking purple shirt with a white vest. There’s also printing of apearl gold bat necklace around the neck. The legs, however, are just plain white. He also has a purple utility belt between the torso and legs. The facial expressions for Disco Batman is an angry scowl and a disgusted look. To complete his look, he has a pearl gold cowl and a gold and black cape as well as some pearl gold skates. The cape has a really nice sheen to it.

Tears of Batman

This version of Batman has him wearing a very colorful outfit that resembles a clown outfit. For the torso, it’s a blue shirt with red sleeves and it has some printing of white circles on it while also having a big red tie and blue suspenders. The legs are yellow and blue while having some patches on the knees. He also has a double-sided head with a smirk on one side and an angry look on the other. To finish off the look, he has a red cowl which I believe is exclusive as well as the green cape.

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: The Awesome Guide

There will be a new DK book coming out in May called the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: The Awesome Guide. The 96-page book goes in-depth with facts about DC super heroes, villains, vehicles, and battles.

The book will also come with an exclusive minifigure but it’s still early to know which character that is. There’s a new photo that have surfaced online and it shows the John Stewart version of Green Lantern which could potentially be the minifigure that will be included with the book. We’ll see if John Stewart is included as we get closer to the release date.

Regal Cinemas

If you watch the movie in IMAX, you can get a collectible ticket and a mini-poster. There are only 1,000 tickets per participating theaters. The poster is only available at select IMAX theaters on Thursday, February 9th.

The LEGO Batman Movie Regal IMAX


From the looks of it, Cinemark has the most attractive promotion with the Kiss Kiss Tuxedo Batman polybag as that variant is exclusive however locations are fairly limited. AMC is the least attractive as the polybag is already available in stores. Regal is a decent one as the tickets are collectibles that you can only get for a limited time during opening weekend. Of course, you can go to every theater and get everything if you have the time.

LEGO House Website Now Live

LEGO House

LEGO has launched their website for the upcoming LEGO House which will be opening to the public in Billund this fall. On the site, there is a ton of new information about what you can expect to see there.

First are the different Experience Zones that you can visit which include the Red Zone, Yellow Zone, Green Zone, and Blue Zone. The Red Zone lets you play with creativity and allows you to use your imagination to create. The Yellow Zone taps into your emotions and you can use those emotions to create animals and flowers. The Green Zone has a more social aspect to it and it teaches you social competences and responding to others’ needs and feelings. Finally, the Blue Zone tests your logic and teaches how to solve problems.

LEGO House

Another area that you can visit in the LEGO House is the Masterpiece Gallery which is an exhibit for AFOL creations. Maybe you can see some of your favorite builders’ creations here.

LEGO House

The History Collection takes you through the history of LEGO. Here you can see 500 of the most iconic LEGO sets the company and produced. It’s similar to the Vault but you can’t actually touch the sets.

LEGO House

Of course, there’s also areas where you can grab a bite including the Cafe Brickachino, and Brick-a-Meal family restaurant. There’s also a gourmet restaurant called the Mezzanine.

The LEGO Batman Movie Kiss Kiss Tuxedo Batman (5004928) Cinemark Promotion

The LEGO Batman Movie Kiss Kiss Tuxedo Batman (5004928)

A few months ago, we got a first look at an exclusive The LEGO Batman Movie Kiss Kiss Tuxedo Batman (5004928) keychain polybag. There was no information on how to get it except for on eBay from overseas. Thanks to Michael who emailed it in, we now know how to get the polybag here in the US.

According to the image above, Cinemark Connections members can get the keychain for free when you see The LEGO Batman Movie in RealD 3D starting tomorrow, while supplies last. The only problem is that it may still be out of reach for some of us since Cinemark is somewhat regional and locations are few and far between. For example, San Diego doesn’t have one and the closest one is up north so unless we go up there, there’s probably no way to get it unless we go on the secondary market.

The LEGO Batman Movie Spoiler-Free Review

The LEGO Batman Movie

When Warner Bros. announced there would be a spinoff movie to The LEGO Movie, I was actually not that surprised and I felt it was expected but that didn’t diminish the fact that I was extremely excited for The LEGO Batman Movie. I’ve gotten a chance to see the movie in a press screening a few days ago and here are my thoughts of it. Of course, the movie won’t be out until Friday so this is a spoiler-free review.

Right from the get-go, the opening credit scene is as funny as you can expect from Will Arnett’s narration. It then shifts to an action scene, where there is a ton of in the whole movie, where the Joker is trying to deploy one of his plans. It also introduces some of the other villains, which we’ve seen in the trailers, in a very short amount of time. I feel the story itself is actually two different stories combined into one main story that works very well. The most obvious one is the relationship between Batman and the Joker, again, which we’ve seen parts of in the trailer. The other story is Batman figuring himself out with or without help of his friends.

The LEGO Batman Movie

One thing to take away from The LEGO Batman Movie is that is does stay true to the vision that Phil Lord and Chris Miller gave when they said a lot of Batman history will be included in the film. Combine that with some LEGO humor that kids may or may not get … Continue

The LEGO Ninjago Movie First Trailer Released

The LEGO Ninjago Movie

The official full trailer for The LEGO Ninjago Movie has debuted on Good Morning America and is now online. You can see in the trailer that Ninjago City is being taken over by Lord Garmadon. You can also see some of the potential sets that we can expect to be released including Garmadon’s flying mech shark. Of course, you have the humor that the LEGO movies have as well. The LEGO Ninjago Movie will be in theaters September 22.

In this big-screen NINJAGO adventure, the battle for NINJAGO City calls to action young Master Builder Lloyd, aka the Green Ninja, along with his friends, who are all secret ninja warriors. Led by Master Wu, as wise-cracking as he is wise, they must defeat evil warlord Garmadon, The Worst Guy Ever, who also happens to be Lloyd’s dad. Pitting mech against mech and father against son, the epic showdown will test this fierce but undisciplined team of modern-day ninjas who must learn to check their egos and pull together to unleash their inner power of Spinjitzu.

LEGO WB Studios

The LEGO Batman Movie is coming out this weekend and it’s making everything contagious with LEGO. If you’re driving by the Warner Bros.

There were 10,000 LEGO bricks used to recreate the LEGO versions of the billboards while taking more than 300 hours of building and compositing. One the images were printed out, it took an additional 70 hours to install. The billboards will be on display for a couple of weeks.

Wearable LEGO Jacket at The LEGO Batman Movie Premiere

Yesterday was the premiere of The LEGO Batman Movie in Los Angeles where many of the voice actors were on hand to celebrate. Also attending was President of DC Entertainment and President of Warner Bros. Consumer Products, Diane Nelson who was wearing a LEGO mosaic jacket featuring a Batman/Joker on the front and the logo on the back. The jacket was designed by renowned LEGO artist Nathan Sawaya and was inspired by the “Necessary Evil” sculpture from The Art of the Brick: DC Comics exhibit. It took Nathan more than 10,000 pieces, most of which are 2×2 plates, and over 100 hours to create. Thanks to Briana for emailing in about it.

The LEGO Batman Movie Experience Walmart Debacle

The LEGO Batman Movie Walmart

If you went to The LEGO Batman Movie Experience at Walmart stores yesterday in hoping participate in the event, a majority of you were probably met with disappointment. For many of the 600 stores listed that were set to partake in the event, nothing actually happened there. For those lucky to have a functional event, there was a lot of activities to do including getting the free Accessory Pack (5004930) which is the same as the one as you get for doing the LEGO Store Batman Search & Find. For others, they were met with cardboard cutouts and empty tables.

I’ve had plenty of comments by readers who said that Walmart knew nothing about the event and blamed it on the third-party vendors. It’s not sure if the vendors were part of Warner Bros. or LEGO or just contractor but nobody showed up and people, not surprisingly, were upset to put it nicely. Some readers even took an extra step and called ahead to confirm if their stores were participating but were still met with frustration. Even LEGO had to come out and comment on the events page on Facebook to clarify what was going on.

Clearly, there was very little communication between companies and it’s surprising to see that especially for very anticipated movie like The LEGO Batman Movie. Obviously this hurts the LEGO brand even if it turns out that they weren’t at fault as people were excited about the event and took time to go there but were letdown. Hopefully they can take … Continue

The LEGO Ninjago Movie Suits Revealed

The LEGO Ninjago Movie

USA Today has released a new image of the suits for the upcoming The LEGO Ninjago Movie. As you can see above, the image shows Kai (Michael Pena), Nya (Abbi Jacobson), Jay (Kumail Nanjiani), Lloyd (Dave Franco), Zane (Zach Woods), and Cole (Fred Armisen) all donning new suits. You can also see the hairstyles are slightly different than in the animated series especially Cole who looks like he’s sporting a man bun now.

We’ve also seen an image of Lord Garmardon (Justin Theroux) who was revealed a few days ago and Sensei Wu (Jackie Chan) from the animated short from last year. The only character we haven’t seen yet is Olivia Munn’s Koko.

Keep in mind that they’re grown up now in The LEGO Ninjago Movie and are in high school. Also, the movie is not in the same universe as in the animated series either but in the same as The LEGO Movie. The LEGO Ninjago Movie is in theaters on September 22. So what do you guys think of the new suits?

The LEGO Movie Sequel Changes Directors

Even with the success of the first movie, it looks like that are more changes to The LEGO Movie Sequel. ComicBook.com is reporting that Trolls director Mike Mitchell has now been named the new director for The LEGO Movie Sequel. He replaces Rob Schrab who announced as the previous director around this time two years ago. According to reports, the change to Mitchell was based on creative differences between Warner Bros. and Schrab.

The swap in directors for The LEGO Movie Sequel is the latest change for the movie. Last year, the original script by Phil Lord and Chris Miller was rewritten by Raphael Bob-Waksberg and also the release date was pushed back for a second time to 2019.

More Cast Announced for The LEGO Batman Movie

The LEGO Batman Movie IMAX Poster

Warner Bros. has released details of the official cast for The LEGO Batman Movie and there are some surprises that we can expect to see in the movie. We already know the main cast which includes Will Arnett as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Zach Galifianakis as The Joker, Michael Cera as Dick Grayson/Robin, Rosario Dawson as Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, Ralph Fiennes as Alfred Pennyworth, Mariah Carey as Mayor McCaskill, Jenny Slate as Dr. Harleen Quinzel/Harley Quinn, Billy Dee Williams as Harvey Dent/Two-Face, and Hector Elizondo as Commissioner James Gordon.

In the irreverent spirit of fun that made “The LEGO® Movie” a worldwide phenomenon, the self-described leading man of that ensemble—LEGO® Batman—stars in his own big-screen adventure.

But there are big changes brewing in Gotham City, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.

LEGO Named 2017 World’s Most Powerful Brand

Brand Finance has released their yearly Global 500 rankings and LEGO has regained their position from Disney as the world’s most powerful brand.

The LEGO Batman Movie AMC Theatres Opening Weekend Promotion

The LEGO Batman Movie AMC

It looks like if you’re going to see The LEGO Batman Movie opening weekend (February 9-12), AMC Theatres may be the way to go. According to The LEGO Batman Movie page, it states AMC Stubs members who watch The LEGO Batman Movie in RealD 3D will be an AMC exclusive Batman minifigure with your ticket purchase. However, over on the promotions page, it shows that they’ll be giving away the Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) polybag which is currently available at Target stores.

At first glance, one link says an exclusive minifigure while another says something that’s not exclusive. If you’re going to see the movie opening weekend anyways, it doesn’t hurt to check out AMC Theatres to see what they have available. If it’s an actual exclusive minifigure then great but if not, you still get a cool polybag out of it. There’s no word if Regal Cinemas will have any promotions for the movie.

The LEGO Batman Movie Predicted to Win Opening Weekend

The LEGO Batman Movie IMAX Poster

The LEGO Batman Movie will be premiering in theaters in two weeks and going up against it are some other high profile movies including Fifty Shades Darker and John Wick: Chapter 2. It is predicted that The LEGO Batman Movie will take in more than $50 million in box office sales that weekend while Fifty Shades Darker will get $30mil-$42mil and John Wick rounding it out with about $20mil. Keep in mind that these are just US box office predictions.

One other interesting stat is that The LEGO Batman Movie has a 83% total awareness among moms which are categorized as women over 25 with a 9% unaided awareness and definite interest of 49% among men under 25.

Who is going to see The LEGO Batman Movie on opening weekend? I have a feeling that it’ll be pretty packed similar to what happened for The LEGO Movie so it’s highly suggested that you reserve your tickets early to guarantee your seat.

LEGO at the 2017 London Toy Fair

The 2017 London Toy Fair is set to kick off and LEGO again this year will be on hand to show off some of the upcoming sets for later this year. Photography is still prohibited so we’ll have to wait until the Nuremberg Toy Fair next week to see initial images but for now, we’ll have to rely on attendees who are able to describe the sets in detail to give us a tease of what to expect. We’ve already had an initial list of the rumored Summer 2017 LEGO sets already so I’m excited to see what all is included with these sets.

With two helicopters, 3 automobiles, and an airplane, Outback was no small wonder.

The LEGO Batman Movie Walmart

As we get closer to the premiere of The LEGO Batman Movie, more events are popping up at various retailers. Mark you calendars because select Walmart stores will be holding The LEGO Batman Movie Experience on Saturday, February 4 from 11:30am-4pm.

The event will consist of a free gift, while supplies last, and kids can take pictures with some characters from the movie. The event is intended for kids 6 and up. It doesn’t say which Walmart stores are doing it so it’s best to contact your local store to see if they’re doing it or not.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523) Polybag Found at Walmart

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

I’ve been told that The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523) polybag has been found at Walmart on the east coast. There’s no other details that was given but I assume they were found in the LEGO section for $3.97 each. I’ve never seen any polybags at my stores except during the holiday season so they may not be at every Walmart. If you’ve been looking for The Joker Battle Training, you might want to check yours out to see if they have it. I’ve already done a review on the polybag which you can read it here.

Thanks to Fikinbricks for the heads up.

The LEGO Batman Movie Toys R Us Mini Batmobile

The LEGO Batman Movie Minibuild

Toys R Us Hong Kong did a mini-building event for The LEGO Batman Movie and attendees got to create a small Batmobile. If you look closely, it is very similar to The LEGO Movie Emmet’s Flying Car from three years ago except for the large wings on the side. This results in the set having 60 pieces now.

Man So over in the Legend Bricks LEGO 交流交友區 Facebook group has also provided the building instructions if you want to create your own. There’s no word yet if there will be a similar TRU building event here in the States or not for The LEGO Batman Movie.

Thanks to Julian for the heads up.

LEGO Dimensions to be Included in February Loot Crate Box

LEGO Dimensions Loot Crate

The February theme for Loot Crate has been revealed and it looks like there will be some sort of exclusive LEGO Dimensions item that will be included in the box. If you’re not familiar with Loot Crate, it is a curated subscription box which you can get 4-6 licensed items which are exclusive for the company that usually add up to $45 or more in retail value.

As I mentioned before, February will be a Build theme that “celebrate some of pop culture’s most “put together” franchises with this hands-on theme.” Some of the other items that will be featured include Batman, Power Rangers, LEGO Dimensions, and Tetris. Loot Crate boxes usually include a variety of items including a t-shirt so there’s no telling what the LEGO Dimensions item will be.

Loot Crate boxes start at $21.99/month for a one month subscription plus shipping so if you do decide to get a box just for the LEGO Dimensions item, this would be the best way to go unless you already have a subscription already or you want a longer term. Just be sure to manually cancel your subscription or else it will automatically renew. You have until February 19 to put your order in and it will ship between February 20-28.

Thanks to Tyler for the heads up.

LEGO Seasonal 2017 Halloween Set First Look

IMG_20170120_202333452

The LEGO Seasonal 2017 Easter Egg Hunt (40237) has started to show up at LEGO Stores and on the back of the instructions, it shows this year’s LEGO Seasonal Halloween set. From the looks of it, the set shows off a large gate and in the background, there’s presumably a haunted house with an orange sky backdrop. There’s also a cauldron with some food stuff in it. The minifigures include a man and a skeleton. It’s cool to have an early look at the set although we won’t be released until September/October. So far this year, these Seasonal sets have been very promising compared to last year’s sets.

Retired LEGO Star Wars UCS Sandcrawler (75059) Sale on Amazon

If you missed out on the recently retired LEGO Star Wars UCS Sandcrawler (75059), Amazon, as of this post, seems to have it in stock and at a lower price than the usual $299.99. Shop@Home does not carry the set anymore and LEGO Stores most likely won’t have it either but it is currently on sale for $284.12 which is a minimal discount but at least it’s in stock. If you’ve been wanting to get it, I highly suggest you jump on it as there’s no word on when it will be gone.

The LEGO Batman Movie McDonald’s Happy Meal Toys Revealed

The LEGO Batman Movie McDonald's Happy Meal

McDonald’s has updated their Happy Meal site and we now know what the coming toys for The LEGO Batman Movie will be. If you remember, I reported last week that there will be Happy Meal toys associated with the movie.

As you can see above, there are three different types of toys that we will be getting. The first one looks like a 3D viewer shaped as Batman and Batgirl’s masks with some scenes. The next one is a puzzle of Batman, Robin, and Batgirl. Below that, I have no idea what that is with Catwoman. It looks like it may be stickers or character stands or maybe bookmarks. Finally, there are four different colored cups of some of the characters in the movie. These are different from the Action Cups that were released with The LEGO Movie.

If you were hoping for some actual LEGO with the Happy Meal toys, you’ll be disappointed again. There hasn’t been any actual LEGO sets since 2001 due small parts and they don’t want kids choking on them accidentally. So there you go. We have our first look at the The LEGO Batman Movie Happy Meal “toys.” There’s no release date so far but I did send an email out to confirm the dates. Will you be picking them up? Keep in mind that you do not have to buy the food to get them. You can buy them individually. Knowing me, I’ll probably pick them up eventually but I won’t be hunting them down.

Update: Over on … Continue

Rumored LEGO Disney Beauty and the Beast BrickHeadz

As we know by now, the LEGO BrickHeadz line was introduced back at San Diego Comic Con last year and they will be officially released in March. LEGO VIP members will get early access to them in February.

There’s no information on what BrickHeadz will be coming out but we can probably guess that Marvel and DC will be part of it since they were released during SDCC. One new rumor that has been floating around Eurobricks is that there will be Disney BrickHeadz more specifically for Beauty and the Beast. Just2Good did an question and answer session yesterday and he did mention that there would be some BrickHeadz for the movie.

This is just a rumor for now but would you pick up the LEGO Disney Beauty and the Beast BrickHeadz sets if they were to become actual sets?

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack (5004930) Review

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack (5004930)

From now until February 26 here in the US, LEGO Brand Stores are doing a Search & Find for Batman stickers/cutout that are placed throughout the store. As a prize for finding all the Batman variants, an associate will give you a Batman mask and The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack (5004930) polybag. The event is intended for kids 6-14. The set contains 41 pieces which includes a Batman minifigure and the Bat-Signal. It also contains a variety of other promotional products such as a sticker sheet and a two-sided poster.

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack (5004930)

Minifigure

Batman is the same minifigure that is in many other sets including the Clayface Splat Attack (70904), Scarecrow Special Delivery (70910), and the Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) polybag. His facial expressions include a smirk and a angry grimace.

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack (5004930)

Build

The only build in this Accessory Pack is the Bat-Signal. This build is exclusive to this polybag and it’s a pretty nice looking build for a free item. The Bat-Signal sits a 4×4 turntable piece and it is able to rotate a full 360 degrees. The signal area is also able to rotate by the way of a couple of a couple of Technic pins on the sides. The Batman symbol is a rare printed 2×2 round tile that is only in one other set, the LEGO Juniors Batman & Superman vs. Lex Luthor (10724)icon. It also incorporates the trans-brown Dome Ø32 piece which is nice.

LEGO Brand Store Valentine’s Day Building Events

LEGO 2017 Valentine's Day Building Events

If you checked out the February 2017 LEGO Store Calendar here in the US, you can see there are two building events to celebrate Valentine’s Day. On February 11, there is a kids event to build a mini rose that they can take home. This event is for VIPs and requires a sign up.

Adults also get to join in on the fun on February 14 as they also have a building night. This event is from 6-8pm and it appears the rose build is the same as the one the kids get. Registration is not required but may be necessary if there is a lot of demand for it so you may want to ask an associate just in case. I know the Fashion Valley location has started taking sign ups so there is demand for it at that particular location.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Mighty Micros: Wolverine vs. Magneto (76073) Review

When the new wave of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Mighty Micros sets were revealed last year, one of my more anticipated sets was Wolverine vs. Magneto (76073). It has 85 pieces and retails for the usual $9.99. The contents of the box include two un-numbered bags, a box with the cape, two instruction leaflets for each Mighty Micro, and another leaflet for the parts list. On the back of the parts list, there’s an ad for the upcoming winter 2017 wave of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets which are coming out in March.

LEGO City: Undercover Nintendo Switch Includes Two Player Co-Op & Secret Nintendo Cameos

LEGO City: Undercover

Nintendo has put out the product page for LEGO City: Undercover for the Switch and there are some new details about the game. As reported before, this remastered version is not exactly a straight port and there is new information about it that supports the claim.

If you look at the game details, it states that it will now have two player co-op which is what fans wanted from the first game. It does not say online co-op so we’ll still have to see about that. That also takes us to the gameplay since, it doesn’t say if the co-op is in the Story Mode or in Free Roam. If it’s in the Story Mode, there might be changes to the game play since you don’t want both players doing the same puzzles.

At the very bottom of the product overview section, you can see that it states there will be secret Nintendo cameos for this version of LEGO City: Undercover. There were Nintendo cameos in the original game but hopefully we’ll see something different. Fans would definitely want to see minifigure characters but we’ll see if that happens or not.

There’s no word yet on the release date of LEGO City: Undercover although Amazon has it listed as April 30 but that could just be a placeholder. LEGO City: Undercover will also be released on PlayStation 4, XBox One, and on Steam.

If you want to expand your LEGO City train layout while picking up an older train set at a pretty decent price, Amazon has the Cargo Train (60052) for $139.99 which is $60.00 (30%) off the normal retail price of $199.99. This is one of the lowest prices this set has been at.

Chevrolet Unveils Life-Sized LEGO Batmobile and Product Website

The LEGO Batman Movie Batmobile

The LEGO Batman Movie is set to hit theaters less than a month away and the marketing hype for it has ramped up even more. LEGO has teamed up with Chevrolet to create a life-sized version of the Batmobile as well as a dedicated website for it. It was unveiled today at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit and it consists of 344,187 pieces measuring at 17 feet long, 9 feet wide, and almost 7 feet tall. The construction took 222 hours to design and 1,833 hours to build.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batmobile

As for the website, it is similar to what you find in a real-life vehicle including the specs and product details of the Batmobile. Some things you can find on the Batmobile include Teen Driver Technology which has safety innovations like Automatic Nerd Alert and a Scarecrow Gas Detector. You can own it for only $48,000,000 and it comes in 13 shades of black such as Jet Black and Vanta Black. There’s even a comparison chart with it going up against The Joker Notorious Lowrider (70906) and The Riddler Riddle Racer. Furthermore, there’s also an animated Chevrolet commercial for the Batmobile, similar to the ones we see on TV and online.

The LEGO Batman Movie Battle Pack (853651) Found

The LEGO Batman Movie Battle Pack (853651)

The LEGO Batman Movie completionists, it looks like there is another thing to collect for the upcoming movie which is a Battle Pack (853651). It is similar to other packs that LEGO has released such as for Nexo Knights and City which includes minifigures and a build. For The LEGO Batman Movie one, it has minifigures of Chief O’Hara and a couple of police officers along with a Bat-Signal build which is slightly different than the one we get from the LEGO Store exclusive Search & Find Accessory Pack (5004930).

There’s no word on when The LEGO Batman Movie Battle Pack (853651) will be available but expect to find it in LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home in the near future.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Snowspeeder (75144) Rumored for May the 4th

It’s that time again of the year when rumors of upcoming LEGO direct-to-consumer sets are starting to come in and for May the 4th, I’ve been told from an anonymous source that it will be the LEGO Star Wars UCS Snowspeeder (75144). I’ve correlated this information with another of my sources and they do match up so it looks like it may be true. There was talk of this set last year but there was no concrete information on it except for a listing on Brickset.

LEGO has released a UCS Snowspeeder before with set 10129 back in 2003 which had 1,455 pieces and retailed for $130 but the info I got today states the new one will go for $199.99, as UCS sets usually go for these days. If this information is correct, that means the rumored UCS Millennium Falcon could be the UCS set for the second half of the year.

LEGO City: Undercover (2017) Official Trailer

LEGO City: Undercover

WB Games has released the official trailer for the upcoming LEGO City: Undercover. The trailer reintroduces Chase McCain along with an amazing soundtrack that’s very Grand Theft Auto like. The game was first released exclusively on the Nintendo Wii U but this remastered version will be on the PlayStation 4, XBox One, Nintendo Switch, and Steam.

If you haven’t played LEGO City: Undercover before, it’s an open-world adventure that lets you control Chase McCain to hunt down criminals in a LEGO version of GTA. There are rumors that this version is more than just a straight port over and will have updates to it from the previous one. There’s no release date mentioned but it is stated that it will be released in the spring.

Join the Chase! This first official trailer for LEGO CITY Undercover introduces Chase McCain, a police officer who goes undercover and dons multiple disguises to hunt down the notorious – and recently escaped – criminal, Rex Fury, to put an end to his city-wide crime wave.

This open-world LEGO adventure allows fans and newcomers to explore the sprawling metropolis that is LEGO® CITY , with more than 20 unique districts to investigate, filled with car thieves to bust, vehicles to navigate, mischievous aliens to capture, hilarious movie references to discover, lost pigs to rescue and of course, hundreds of collectibles. Bringing together witty, original storytelling with signature LEGO humor, this open-world LEGO adventure creates a fun-filled experience for players of all ages.

The LEGO Batman Movie Costumes Now Available on Amazon

The LEGO Batman Movie Costume

Last year, I reported that Disguise would be releasing official costumes for The LEGO Batman Movie and it looks like they are now available over on Amazon. Currently, I can only find the Batman costume but there will also be Batgirl as well.

Like with the LEGO Ninjago costume I reviewed last year, Batman will come in three sizes in both Deluxe and Prestige versions. The costume has six pieces to it including the tunic with detachable cape, pants, mask, and a pair of hands. The Prestige version will have the minifigure leg design.

Who says costumes are only for Halloween. With The LEGO Batman MOvie hitting theaters next month, why not have your own little Batman with you while watching the movie.

The book also includes the exclusive Tartan Batman minifigure variant which fans will want to collect as well. The book may not appeal to adults as they are geared towards kids as with other activity books but the minifigure alone is worth the price especially when it is on sale. The LEGO Batman Movie: Chaos in Gotham City will be released on January 31.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) Polybag Review

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522)

Following up on my review of The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523) polybag, I have another one that was sent in by LEGO for review which is the Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522). This 59 piece polybag is now available at Target stores in the Valentine’s section for $3.99.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522)

Minifigure

Batman is the same version as in the clayface Splat Attack (70904) and the Scarecrow Special Delivery (70910). He has the usual black suit with a smirk and angry grimace. His accessory is a Batarang.

Build

The only part of the build is the what appears to be the Phantom Zone. If you’re not familiar with the Phantom Zone, it’s a realm in the DC Superman Universe where it is used for a means of imprisonment. The LEGO Batman Movie: The Essential Guide has some little spoilers of why the Phantom Zone is in the movie which I won’t post here.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522)

The design of it is very complex looking especially for a polybag and uses two Travis bricks as part of the base of the build. There are a lot of dark red parts that are used such as some 1×3 plates, 1×1 clips, as well as some headlight bricks which are pretty rare so far. There’s also some trans-blue dishes on the outer edges.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522)

Around the outer sections are covered with lightsaber blades, harpoons, and claws. I don’t know about you but these seem like defense mechanisms of the Phantom Zone. Finally, there is a clear dish and antenna to … Continue

The LEGO Batman Movie Toys Coming to McDonald’s

It looks like LEGO and McDonald’s will be teaming up again this year for some toys for The LEGO Batman Movie. I’ve been sent the above image showing a part of a Happy Meal box which shows there will be some sort of promotion for the movie next month but doesn’t say what it will be.

If you remember from 2014, LEGO did a McDonald’s promotion for The LEGO Movie with some Action Cups. Hopefully we get something similar or better for The LEGO Batman Movie. I’m sure fans would want some actual LEGO but that hasn’t happened for a long time.

If anyone knows the source of the image, please let me know and I’ll give proper credit.

Update: We now have our first look at the toys. Check them out here.

LEGO DC Super Hero Girls Krypto Saves the Day (30546) Promotion at Toys R Us

LEGO DC Super Hero Girls Krypto Saves the Day (30546)

The new Toys R Us ad is now out and if you make a purchase of $30 or more on LEGO sets, you can get the LEGO DC Super Hero Girls Krypto Saves the Day (30546) polybag for free. The promotion lasts until the end of the week but if there are any left over, you can purchase it outright. This polybag is also found at various Target locations for $3.99. Krypto also appears in the Lashina Tank (41233) but this is the cheapest way to get the figure.

The LEGO Batman Movie 2-in-1 Super Pack (66546)

The LEGO Batman Movie 2-in-1 Super Pack (66546)

It looks like there is an exclusive Walmart 2-in-1 Super Pack for The LEGO Batman Movie that has shown up online. The Super Pack includes The Joker Balloon Escape (70900) and The Riddler Riddle Racer (70903) but it also includes a poster that we haven’t seen before.

The only sketchy thing about the set is that it is listed at $89.98 which is way above the price if you combined the two sets which comes out to $44.98 and I’m pretty sure that the poster doesn’t cost $45 unless it is gold plated. You can use Brickseek to check if there’s any of the Super Packs around you but it looks like it’s only online at this time.

More The LEGO Batman Movie Character Images Found

Polka Dot Man

The news doesn’t stop when it comes to The LEGO Batman Movie. Some internet sleuths have found some new images of a few characters that will be showing up in the movie but there’s reports of them coming in some summer 2017 sets as well.

First we have Polka Dot Man whom fans have been wanting a minifigure of since he was shown in the trailers. Well it looks like it may happen because there’s a rumor that he may be showing up in a future set.

Next up, we have Bane who we’ve seen before. He’ll be in a set that has a six-wheel vehicle of some sort.

Bane

Following that is Mutant Leader who is also rumored to be in the Bane set mentioned above.

Mutant Leader

Finally, you may have seen glimpse of them in the trailer but we also have some Flying Monkeys as well as the Wicked Witch. How they will be part of The LEGO Batman Movie remains to be seen but it sure is interesting.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523) Polybag Review

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

One of The LEGO Batman Movie polybags that will be coming out in conjunction with the movie is The Joker Battle Training (30523). The only current way to get it is at LEGOLAND and LEGOLAND Discovery Centers and on eBay. There’s been no information on how the 49 piece polybag will be further distributed at this time.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

Minifigure

The Joker is not an exclusive minifigure as it is the same as the one found in The Joker Balloon Escape (70900). He wears his signature purple suit as in the aforementioned Balloon Escape as well as in The Scuttler (70908). There’s even the long coattail piece that goes between the torso and legs which is also in the Ballon Escape. The double-sided head has expressions of an evil smile and a very happy smile.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

Build

There are three little builds to this polybag. The first is just the little stand for the Joker that also uses some red and white 1×2 tiles. The stand is pretty required as the gatling gun is front-heavy and he will have a hard time standing on his own.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Joker Battle Training (30523)

The next build is his large six-stud gatling gun. The gun is a standard gun but there’s the large gatling gun barrel in the front. The studs are trans-green and you get a lot of spare ones too.

The last part of the polybag build is the Batman training dummy. The head isn’t really a head but just Batman’s cowl that … Continue

This year’s Seasonal sets goes back to the vignette style sets that were more popular than the character builds from last year. The set contains 126 pieces and retails for $9.99. The contents of the box include three un-numbered bags, an 8×8 green plate, and the instructions. The back of the instructions show the next LEGO Seasonal set with the Easter Egg Hunt (40237).

The LEGO Batman Movie Polybag Roundup

The LEGO Batman Movie

Many fans of The LEGO Batman Movie have been quite excited about the sets that have been released so far. There are also a lot of polybags to collect for the theme and some have already started to lose track of them so here’s a post to condense everything we know about them so far. I’ll continue to update this post if there are more polybags that show up.


The Mini Batmobile (30521)

There’s no word on the availability of The Mini Batmobile at this time but I’ll update this post when there’s news of it. You can check out my early review of the polybag here.

LEGO Message Boards Shutting Down in March

After over a decade of being online, the official LEGO Message Boards will be shutting down on March 6. This move makes way for more of LEGO’s resources to go to LEGO Life which they’ve started to push more for. The message boards are still active but check out the announcement post for deadlines to do things on there.

To be honest, I’ve been on there once or twice but I didn’t really get into it that much and somehow I don’t think it appealed to adults as it did with younger kids. Were you a part of the LEGO Message Boards and are you surprised that it’ll be closing down in a few months?

After much consideration, a very difficult decision has been reached that the Mods need to share with you all. The LEGO.com Message Boards will be retired on March 6, 2017. The entire community, including all forums and all content within them, will be taken offline permanently.

Just like a LEGO set, theme, game, or site nothing can last forever. In order to make way for the exciting features of the future we must occasionally retire older features. That is the current case with the message boards.

The Mods would like to thank you all for being such amazing community members. Every forum is filled with creative, inspiring, and exciting writings thanks to you! We truly appreciate the passion each of you has contributed to this community and hope that LEGO passion will carry through this transitional time.

LEGO Star Wars R3-M2 (40268) Polybag Found

LEGO Star Wars R3-M2 (40268)

It looks like 2017 is the year of the astromech droids as far as LEGO Star Wars polybags are concerned. There has been a new R3-M2 (40268) polybag that’s the traditional minifigure version that’s been found in a Romanian monobrand store. Upon some research, R3-M2 is from Rogue One.

If you look closely, you can see that it’s on it’s own stand and has a plaque card on the back with the name tag appearing to be a sticker. There’s even a Technic pin on the side of the stand that suggests there could be more polybags like this in the future.

I have a feeling that the R3-M2 (40268) will be this year’s May the 4th polybag promotion.

LEGO Creator Mini Volkswagen Beetle (40252) Building Instructions

LEGO Creator Mini VW Beetle (40252)

You may have seen an image of the LEGO Creator Mini Volkswagen Beetle (40252) floating around the internet for the past few weeks or so. The set is basically a smaller version of the Volkswagen Beetle (10252) which was released last year. The set is currently available in Hong Kong with a purchase of HK$2800 (~US$360) but word is that it will be going to Europe later this month and who knows if it will reach North America.

Luckily for everyone, LEGO has uploaded the building instructions in PDF form. I’ve also posted an images of the parts list for reference. The Mini Volkswagen Beetle does include stickers so you won’t be able to recreate the set completely but you can still build it. Some of the dark azure parts are fairly rare as well so building it in a different color is recommended too and I feel that many of you will be doing this.

The LEGO Batman Movie Graffiti Posters

The LEGO Batman Movie

LEGO has released some new graffiti posters for The LEGO Batman Movie and they look pretty awesome. There are eleven posters in total and includes a variety of the heroes and villains in the movie. There’s no word on if these posters will be released for purchase or as gift with purchase like the other ones we’ve seen.

New LEGO Boost (17101) System Revealed

Last week, I reported on LEGO’s teaser of an announcement coming tomorrow but it looks like Engadget has already revealed it. The announcement is for a new theme called LEGO Boost (17101) which is somewhat similar to LEGO Mindstorms but geared towards younger kids. The base starter set will be priced at $159.99 and will be available later this year.

The set will have three Boost bricks in addition to 840 LEGO elements. The core unit is called the Move Hub which has a six-axis tilt sensor, two input and output ports, a power button and a light that changes color which was teased before. Powered by six AAA batteries, the other Boost bricks also have a combination color and distance sensor as well as an interactive motor which includes a tachometer.

The set also has instructions for five other models including Vernie the Robot, Frankie the Cat, the Guitar 4000, the Multi-Tool Rover 4, and an Autobuilder. To make the whole system work, there’s also a companion LEGO Boost app for you to download. The app is actually required as it has all the building instructions for the models as well as the programming.

You can read more about the details of individual models for LEGO Boost in the link above.

New Rumors of LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon Coming

This year marks the 40th anniversary of Star Wars and rumors have started to swirl about a LEGO Star Wars UCS set that has been rumored for a while. It’s pretty easy from the image above that it’s the Millennium Falcon. There are various users on Eurobricks who have some information about the new UCS Millennium Falcon. Paperballpark mentions that it’ll have interchagable radar dishes, one round and one rectangular, so you can display it as it is shown in Episodes 4-6 or in Episode 7.

To give more speculation on the UCS Millennium Falcon, the box on the updated UCS Death Star (75159)icon shows a blacked out silhouette of the Falcon on the bottom left corner that is more prominent than the silhouettes of the other ships. This could absolutely mean nothing at all or LEGO could be hinting at it for a while.

Given that the original 10179 UCS Millennium Falcon is one of the most definitive sets in LEGO Star Wars history and a holy grail for many fans, a new one would be great news. Fans weren’t too happy with the re-release of the Death Star since it wasn’t retired for that long but it’s safe to say that they would welcome a re-release of the UCS Falcon with open arms and wallets. There are many factors that contribute to the set being legit such as the Star Wars 40th anniversary and reports from good sources like Paperballpark and a “friend” that makes me think the set will be coming sooner than … Continue

LEGO Star Wars R2-D2 (30611) Polybag Building Instructions

LEGO Star Wars R2-D2 (30611)

A few days ago, I reported on a new LEGO Star Wars R2-D2 (30611) polybag. This was a brick-built version of the droid which looks very cute. It looks like the instructions for the build are now online. It looks all the parts are fairly common except for the couple of printed 1×1 tile pieces for the front, which are exclusive. So if you already have all the parts, you can building R2-D2 pretty easily but have to do without the detailing in the front.

The LEGO Batman Movie Easter Bunny Batman LED Lite

If you didn’t there wasn’t enough variants of Batman to collect for The LEGO Batman Movie, there’s a new Easter Bunny Batman to get. The only downside of it is that it is not a standard size minifigure but a larger LED Lite which is now available on Amazon. There’s no word on whether this variant will become an actual minifigure but I doubt it.

LEGO Architecture Guggenheim Museum (21035) Revealed

LEGO Architecture Guggenheim Museum 21035

The LEGO Architecture theme will be continuing this year and it looks like we have our first look at the Guggenheim Museum (21035) from the LEGO Italian Catalog. This updated version is larger and more detailed than the 2009 version. I believe this the second LEGO Architecture set to be redesigned from one that has been released before with the first being the Burj Khalifa (21008).

The new Guggenheim Museum (21305) joins Sydney (21302), Chicago (21033), and London (21035) as lineup for the Winter 2017 LEGO Architecture sets.

How to Get The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack

A few days ago, I reported on a new The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack polybag. A reader has given some information on how to get this particular polybag. If you checked out the January 2017 LEGO Store Calendar, there is an in-store event that starts from January 2-February 26. From what I’ve been told, they’ll be little stickers of Batman hidden throughout the store and if you find them all, you can get one of these polybags.

As you can see from the image above, the Accessory Pack consists of Batman and the Batsignal along with a sticker sheet and a double-sided poster with the heroes on one side and the villains on the other.

It looks like there will be plenty of The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Packs available since the event goes on for two month however those not close to a LEGO Store will probably have to get it from another source.

Thanks to Purple Dave for the heads up.

Update: I’ve had people say that this promotion won’t start until later in the month while I’ve heard others say they’ve gotten it. I guess it depends if the individual stores have everything set up or not. You may wamt to call and see if they’re ready.

LEGO Ideas Volkswagen Golf MK1 GTI Achieves 10,000 Supporters

This is actually an older LEGO Ideas project that achieved 10,000 supporters but it hit the mark during Thanksgiving and I didn’t see it so here’s a post giving it some recognition. The Volkswagen Golf MK1 GTI project by hasskabal only took six weeks to get 10,000 supporters and it is the third most viewed project, as of this post, only behind Minecraft and Back to the Future – DeLorean Time Machine.

The project proposes 1,278 pieces and it is a replicate of the classic 1970’s Volkswagen Golf MK1 GTI. As you can see from the image below, the size of the car is about the same as other LEGO Creator vehicles that have already been released.

The Volkswagen Golf MK1 GTI now joins Boat Repair Shop, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Bus” Hulkbuster UCS, LEGO Store Modular Version, Red Dwarf, Landrover 4×4, Vintage Tram, 1950’s Diner, Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan, Rey’s Speeder, and The Iron Giant as the projects that qualify the Third 2016 Review Stage.

The Brick Fan 2016 Recap

2016 went by just like that it was a very eventful year here on The Brick Fan. Like with previous years, I’m going to go take a look back at what happened on the site last year. Because I love looking at stats, there will be some of that.

We ended the year with 9,416,861 page views which remained steady from 2015. There was some growth in terms of unique visits which went up 3% from the previous year while first-time visitors also went up by 3%.

Monthly-wise, we averaged about 780.000 views per month with January being busiest month when we hit 1 million page views for the first time ever. Hopefully we can replicate that this year with the Toy Fairs coming up. Our highest recorded day was January 26 when we had 65,906 views.

Since we’re in the age of technology, one new thing that we’re taking a look at is devices used to view the site. Mobile devices used actually increased by 15% from 2015, while desktop and tablet use decreased by 6% and 10%, respectively. This means that many of you are switching to your mobile devices to check out the site instead of the traditional route. I have a feeling that this trend will be continuing for 2017.

As far as social media is concerned, we’ve been a little more active on various sites. Over on our Facebook Page, we ended the year with 11,153 likes which was a 39% increase from 2015.

On Twitter, we had 6,758 … Continue

The Brick Fan Top 10 LEGO Reviews in 2016

A few days ago, I did a post on the most viewed LEGO posts in 2016 and today I have the most viewed reviews of the year. There were 828 sets released in 2016 and I’ve reviewed 79 different LEGO items from a number of themes although there were a lot more that I wanted to do but didn’t have the time to build.


1. The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017)

One of the more recent reviews of the year but still managed to make the top spot was The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017). They won’t officially be released until January 1 but you can probably find them in stores now.

2. LEGO Star Wars UCS Assault on Hoth (75098)

The UCS Assault on Hoth (75098) was one of the more controversial sets of 2016 mainly because of the “UCS” tag that it was given. Even so, it was the second most read review of 2016.

LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector's Series Assault on Hoth (75098)


3. LEGO Technic Porsche 911 GT3 RS (42056)

My first ever Technic build and review did not disappoint. If you want a set that has everything you could want in a set from design to packaging, then the Porsche 911 GT3 RS is the way to go.

4. LEGO Disney Collectible Minifigures (71012)

The LEGO Disney Collectible Minifigures were pretty popular this year and it seemed that many people read up on my review of them.

Another more recent review for 2016, The Penguin Arctic Roller is … Continue

LEGO Ideas The Iron Giant Achieves 10,000 Supporters

Today has been a pretty busy day news-wise. The Iron Giant by BrettCuv is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. It is based on the highly popular animated film of the same name. The project proposes five of the main characters including Hogarth Hughes, Annie Hughes, Kent Mansley, Dean McCoppin, and of course The Iron Giant who is fully articulated. The entire build consists of a little over 2,000 pieces.

The Iron Giant now joins Boat Repair Shop, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Bus” Hulkbuster UCS, LEGO Store Modular Version, Red Dwarf, Landrover 4×4, Vintage Tram, 1950’s Diner, Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan, and Rey’s Speeder as the projects that qualify the Third 2016 Review Stage.

LEGO Star Wars Brick-Built R2-D2 (30611) Polybag Found

LEGO Star Wars R2-D2 (30611)

It looks like we have a cool little LEGO Star Wars polybag to find next year. A reader has posted the above image of a new LEGO Star Wars brick-built R2-D2 (30611) polybag on our Facebook Page. There’s no word on the origins of the image or how to obtain this polybag at this time but I can say that it will be a pretty popular one when it is available.

Update: It seems that the initial images was found over at Minifigure Price Guide.

LEGO Releasing New Super Heroes BrickHeadz Theme in February

Earlier I did a post about The LEGO Batman Movie Character Posters from the February 2017 LEGO Store Calendar and some keen eyed readers saw that VIPs would get early access to a LEGO theme starting on February 15. Rumor has it that the new theme is actually the LEGO Super Heroes BrickHeadz sets which were first announced during San Diego Comic Con.

I believe the ones coming out for general release are the same characters that we’ve seen before but not sure if they will be coming individually or in two packs, without the SDCC markings, so hopefully LEGO will be announcing something in January or early February.

The LEGO Batman Movie Character Movie Posters in February

February is The LEGO Batman Movie month and all month long at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home, they will be giving away free posters with any purchase. The posters are four of the character posters for the movie which I’ve reported on before. The characters include:

Harley Quinn – February 1-5
Batman – February 6-12
Batgirl – February 13-19
Robin – February 20-26

Surprisingly, the Joker isn’t one of the posters that will be given away which is strange because he’s one of the main antagonists of The LEGO Batman Movie.

The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) Polybag Promotion in February

LEGO Stores have already started passing out the February 2017 Store Calendar and we can now confirm that The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) polybag will be part of a promotion for the month. You can get the exclusive polybag for free with purchases of $75 or more from February 10-28, while supplies last. As you can see, the polybag contains two new variants of Batman in some colorful outfits.

There will be a lot of the winter 2017 sets available by then so if you want to get the Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) polybag, I suggest doing it early in the promotional period in case stock runs out quickly.

It seems that we keep finding new items for The LEGO Batman Movie. Online shop Brickshop.nl has posted another new polybag and this time it’s the Kiss Kiss Tuxedo Batman (5004928) keychain. Over on their site, it’s a promotional polybag for them but there’s no word on how other parts of the world can get it.

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack Found

The LEGO Batman Movie Accessory Pack

Well it looks like we’ll have another polybag to forward to for The LEGO Batman Movie. A reader has posted an image on our Facebook Page showing off what appears to be an accessory pack similar to the one we got for The LEGO Movie (5002041). The 41 piece polybag includes a Batman minifigure along with the Batsignal as well as a sticker sheet as well as some items I can’t tell what they are.

I’m assuming this polybag will be available in February as a gift with purchase as the January 2016 LEGO Store Calendar doesn’t show anything on there for it. We’ll see when the February calendar is available in a few day.

Thanks to Alan for the heads up.

The Brick Fan Top 10 LEGO Posts in 2016

We’re winding down 2016 and it’s time to continue with my “Top 10” lists and this time it’s for the most viewed LEGO posts of the year. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I love to look at statistics. In regards to what the top posts were this year, I was actually a little surprised to see what showed up on my analytics.


1. LEGO Winter 207 Rumored Set List

As usual, you guys like reading up about some of the LEGO sets that we’ll be getting in the future. This list came out in August so some of the sets have already hit store shelves and online.


2. LEGO Nuremberg Toy Fair 2016 Set Images

Not surprisingly, the toy fair season has everyone hyped for it since we get our first look at the spring and summer sets.


3. LEGO Ideas Old Fishing Store Achieves 10,000 Supporters

This post really took my by surprise as to how high it is on this list. This project was eventually announced that it will become an official LEGO Ideas set that will be coming out in Fall 2017.

Another post that came out in the second half of the year which many people read up on a lot. Most were excited for the Snowglobe and Nutcracker Ornament GWPs.

The LEGO Batman Movie: The Essential Guide Shows Rumored Summer 2017 Sets

The LEGO Batman Movie: The Essential Guide

I’ve just picked up the Barnes & Noble exclusive edition of The LEGO Batman Movie: The Essential Guide and in it, there are images of some rumored summer 2017 sets that I’ve previously reported on.

The first is the Batwing that is said to be released. The book calls this version of the Batwing the “Black Thunder.” Further along in the book in the villains section, we get a look at some of the other sets that were rumored to come out in the summer. The first is Two-Face with his wrecking machine. Next to him is Harley Quinn with her vehicle with a cannon that was going to be a part of the Black Thunder Batwing set. On the next page, we get a look at the Scarecrow Scarecopter. Finally, there’s a look at the Bane bigfig along with his six-wheel vehicle.

You can now purchase The LEGO Batman Movie: The Essential Guide over on Amazon but the Barnes & Noble version also includes a poster with it. I’ll review the book in the next few days.

The perfect companion to LEGO Batman’s first solo movie, The LEGO® Batman™ Movie: The Essential Guide showcases the full range of exciting LEGO Batman sets and minifigures that will be released to tie in with the film’s release. Heroes, villains, vehicles, and locations are all explored in classic DK style, with lively and informative nonfiction text to annotate and expand upon lavish reference images of LEGO Batman sets and scenes from the movie.

LEGO to Announce New Play Experience January 4

For the past week, LEGO has been teasing on Facebook about a new play experience that boosts creativity. The first video just shows a flashing vertical light bar while a new video today shows a flashing RGB light with some more non-flashing lights. They also announced that whatever this is will be revealed next Wednesday, January 4. My guess is that it could be a new LEGO Mindstorms since the EV3 (31313) was released back in 2013 and it’s probably due time for a new version. What are you guys’ guesses on what this new thing is? Let us know in the comments below.

Top 10 LEGO 2016 Sets

I’ve had quite a few readers asking if I would do a post about my top 10 LEGO sets of 2016. Since this is the last week of the year, I guess this is now a good time to do that post. According to Brickset, there was 828 sets released this year, including gift with purchase sets, so whittling it down to 10 is quite hard to do. Again, this is just my list of top 10 sets and may vary from other people.


10. LEGO Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters (75827)

Probably one of the best items for any Ghostbusters fan is the Firehouse Headquarters (75827). Coming in at over 4,600 pieces, there is a ton of little details from both the original Ghostbusters movies that you can find. Check out my review of the set here.

9. LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge (76057)

As one of the largest non-D2C LEGO Marvel Super Heroes set to be released, the Spider-Man: Web Warriors Ultimate Bridge (76057) is a great set with lots of exclusive minifigures included such as Scarlet Spider and Kraven. Many fans have even bought two sets to make a complete bridge.

Amazon | Shop@Homeicon


8. LEGO Creator Vacation Getaways (31052)

This 3-in-1 set is a pretty neat set that looks great as the standard model but can also be rebuilt into a summer home and a yacht. The RV is one of the best models of this type of vehicle I’ve seen.

LEGO Dimensions Upcoming Expansion Packs Datamined

LEGO Dimensions Teen Titans Go!

Here’s something very interesting coming from one of our readers who have shared some information about some upcoming LEGO Dimensions expansion packs. We already knew that we would be getting expansion packs from franchises such as Teen Titans Go! and LEGO City Undercover when it was first announced.

A reader did some datamining and found some expansion packs that would be coming out for some franchises. Looking at the info, it looks like LEGO City: Undercover will be a Chase McCain Fun Pack while Teen Titans Go! will be a Team Pack which includes both Raven and Beast Boy. For that set, it’ll be either 71254 or 71255. There’s also some details of the Powerpuff Girls which will include all three characters of Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. No word about which expansion pack(s) they will be in.

What’s most interesting out of the screenshot is the Lord Vortech Fun Pack which could mean that we’ll finally be getting a Lord Vortech minifigure which fans have been asking for since LEGO Dimensions was first released. Of course, this could be just dummy info to throw everyone off but we’ll see.

Thanks to Matthew for the info.

It looks like there’s another The LEGO Batman Movie polybag to search for in the near future. Delta Customs over on Instagram has posted what appears to be an Asian exclusive polybag featuring Batman in his yellow striped tuxedo in some sort of vault case with some accessories. No word on how to get it but it looks pretty neat.

Update: It looks like the polybag will be called the Batman Battle Pod (5004929). It is listed on the LEGO Hong Kong Facebook Page that it will be a GWP with a purchase threshold.

LEGO 2016 Employee Exclusive 50 Years on Track (4002016) Revealed

LEGO 2016 Employee Exclusive 50 Years on Track (4002016)

Now that Christmas is over, I’ve been waiting a few weeks to post this set since images of it first showed up online but I didn’t want to spoil it for the LEGO employees who haven’t received theirs yet. The 2016 LEGO employee exclusive set is called 50 Years on Track (4002016) and it has a whopping 1,141 pieces. The set celebrates six decades of LEGO trains since it was first released in 1966 and it features six different types of trains through the years including:

Motorized Train Set – 1966
Western Train – 1976
Monorail Transport System – 1987
Metroliner – 1991
Emerald Night – 2009
Winter Holiday Train – 2016

Again, the only legit way to get the 50 Years on Track (4002016) set was to be a LEGO employee which also includes LEGO Brand Store associates but that doesn’t stop it from hitting the secondary market such as eBay where it is going for around $250. For those LEGO employees who kept theirs, congratulations as this is a great set especially for LEGO train fans.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524) Polybag Review

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

If you checked out the January 2017 LEGO Store Calendar, you can get The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524) polybag for free with purchases of $35 or more at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home from December 27 – January 15. I’ve gotten my hands on one courtesy of LEGO and here’s a little review of it.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

The polybag has 79 pieces and the build is actually not that bad. There’s a pretty nice parts selection including the black shield pieces, some 1x2x2 sloped pieces, and 2×2 wedge plates. The majority of the Batwing is standard building using the sloped pieces to give it a sleek look. The front sloped grill pieces looks cool as well. The front cockpit utilizes a modified 1X2X2/3 brick along with the 2×2 wedge plates which attaches to the 1×2 plate with handle.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

The last part of the build are the large wings that uses the shield pieces towards the inner areas. They attach to the hull using hinges which allows the wings to fold horizontal to vertical and everything in between.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524)

Overall, The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batwing (30524) polybag is actually a really nice polybag that you can get fairly easily in a few days. It looks good compared to the one seen in the latest trailer and rumor has it that a larger counterpart will be coming in Summer 2017.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521) Polybag Review

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

Continuing with my reviews of The LEGO Batman Movie sets, I actually have one of the new polybags that we haven’t seen yet, The Mini Batmobile (30521). It contains 68 pieces but there’s no word on pricing but I assume it could be $3.99 each.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

This Batmobile is the miniature version of the 70905 set that is already available in stores. The base of the vehicle is a 2×4 Technic plate with pins that is oriented lengthwise. The ends uses a couple of 1×2 Technic bricks with half beam holes that are held in place with some plates.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

The front uses a Batarang for the ornament while it uses a black shield piece for the canopy top and a droid head for the exhaust. The wings on the sides can fold down on the hinges but nothing too spectacular.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

The Mini Batmobile can also change to the monster truck mode but it requires you to take off the 1×2 Technic beam and reorient it vertically.

The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521)

Overall, The LEGO Batman Movie The Mini Batmobile (30521) polybag isn’t too bad of a set considering that miniature models of larger sets do not translate as well. If you’re a collector of polybags, I think this one is a good one to pick up when it is available. Again, there’s no word yet on where or when that is at this time.

New LEGO Brick Calendar (40172)

It looks like there will be a new LEGO Brick Calendar (40172) that is now being sold over at the UK. Margaret_Bricks over on Instagram has posted images of the front and back of the box.

No word on availability yet here in the US but I assume it will be available at LEGOLAND and at LEGO Stores in January.

LEGO Ideas UCS Rey’s Speeder Achieves 10,000 Supporters

The UCS Rey´s Speeder by Robert Lundmark is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. This is actually an unprecedented moment on LEGO Ideas because this is the third project today to hit 10k, which hasn’t happened before, joining the 1950’s Diner and The Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan from earlier. As the project suggest, this is a larger version of Rey’s Speeder from Star Wars: The Force Awakens which has more detail than the standard 75099 set.

The UCS Rey’s Speeder now joins Boat Repair Shop, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Bus” Hulkbuster UCS, LEGO Store Modular Version, Red Dwarf, Landrover 4×4, Vintage Tram, 1950’s Diner, Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan as the projects that qualify the Third 2016 Review Stage.

There are a number of reports as well as emails coming in letting me know that The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) polybag is now starting to show up at Target stores. They are going for $3.99 each and can be found at the checkout lanes in the impulse sections. The DPCI is 204-00-0090 but that’s the same for all their polybags so that doesn’t help much. Personally, I went to two different Targets here in San Diego and haven’t found them yet so they may not have rolled out at all the stores yet.

The Phantom Zone is part of the DC Universe that is used to imprison criminals so I’m interested to see how it fits into The LEGO Batman Movie.

The LEGO Batman Movie Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607) Polybag Found

I’ve held off reporting on this a few days ago but it seems that other sites are also reporting on it as well. A Macau toy store called Digibee has posted an image of a new The LEGO Batman Movie polybag called Disco Batman/Tears of Batman (30607). The polybag includes two new variants of Batman in some very eccentric outfits. There’s no mentioning of the distribution of the polybag but I’ve seen rumors on Instagram that the polybag will be given out at theaters, similar to what they did with The LEGO Movie polybags.

The polybag joins a number of other polybags that will be released in conjunction with the movie including Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522), The Joker Battle Training (30523), and Mini Batwing (30524). Again, no word on the distribution of those except for the Mini Batwing when you can get it for free with purchases of $35 or more starting on December 27.

There are now official images of the upcoming promotion for the LEGO Seasonal Gingerbread Man (5005156) minifigure box. You can get it for free with purchases of $50 or more at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home from December 12-18. The box is similar to the Easter Minifigure (5004486) but decorated to his theme. The Gingerbread Man himself is not exclusive as he was released back in 2013 with Series 11 Collectible Minifigures (71002). The only difference is that this one does not have the red “Dunk Me” cup as an accessory.

For those who missed him a few years ago or got into LEGO after that set retired, next week is you best chance of getting him if you’re still doing some holiday shopping. Of course you can also BrickLink him but he commands around $10 for just the minifigure.

Billy Dee Williams to Voice Two-Face in The LEGO Batman Movie

The LEGO Batman Movie Villains

It has been confirmed today by The LEGO Batman Movie director Chris McKay that Billy Dee Williams will be voicing Two-Face in the movie. You may remember that Williams portrayed Harvey Dent in the 1989 Batman movie and now he will be reprising the voice role. You’ll notice in the Arkham Asylum (70912) that the Two-Face minifigure does resemble Williams.

Billy Dee Williams joins an already all-star cast in The LEGO Batman Movie with Will Arnett reprising his Batman role. Ralph Fiennes will be voicing Alfred Pennyworth, Michael Cera as Dick Grayson, Zach Galifianakis as the Joker, Jenny Slate as Harley Quinn, and Rosario Dawson as Catwoman.

Two More The LEGO Batman Movie Official Set Images

LEGO has released more official images of various themes and the more notable ones are for The LEGO Batman Movie. The two sets that have been revealed are Scarecrow Special Delivery (70910) and The Penguin Arctic Roller (70911) which I believe are retail exclusive sets.

The Scarecrow Special Delivery has 204 pieces and includes minifigures of Batman, Security Guard, and Scarecrow. The Penguin Arctic Roller set has 305 pieces and has minifigures of Batman and the Penguin.

I’ll have my review of the Arctic Roller later on tonight when the embargo lifts so stay tuned for that.

LEGO Star Wars Winter 2017 The Phantom (75150)

LEGO Star Wars The Phantom (75150)

A few weeks ago, some official images of the winter 2017 LEGO Star Wars sets came out and one particular set was pretty intriguing. This set was The Phantom (75150) based on the Rebels series and one of the minifigures featured was Grand Admiral Thrawn. The image was pretty hard to see if he had the correct red eyes for him. Now more images have come out and we can now confirm that he does indeed have his red eyes which is a relief for many fans of the character. The one thing that isn’t correct is his insignia of Grand Admiral. The ranking on the minifigure only shows him as Admiral.

The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) Feel Guide

The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017)

Earlier this week, LEGO officially announced the minifigure lineup for The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017). As usual with the Collectible Minifigures, here’s a feel guide for this series. Obviously, I can only go by the images but there are enough indicators for each minifigure to distinguish them. LEGO has changed it up again for this wave and there will be a total of 20 to collect. There’s no word on the distribution per box but I hope to have that info in the upcoming weeks.


Glam Metal Batman

This version of Batman has a guitar that should be easy to feel for. If not, you can also try for the spikes on the shoulder pads.

Clan of the Cave Batman

For this Batman, the spiked club is the only thing this identifies this version of him.

Vacation Batman

The inflatable duck should be the easier thing to feel for with the little duck head. There are also two flat flipper pieces that you could also use.

Fairy Batman

There are a number of things that you could feel for to find Fairy Batman including the skirt, the wings, and the wand.

Lobster Lovin’ Batman

The obvious item to feel for here is the lobster piece as well as the plate.

Catman

The easiest things to feel for are the two claw pieces. You can also try for the belt piece if you can’t find the claws.

Zodiac Master

For the Zodiac Master, the only defining items are the fish and crab pieces.

Dick Grayson

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man: Homecoming Rumored Set Details

Delta Customs over on Instagram has provided some new rumored details of the upcoming LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man: Homecoming sets. There are two sets mentioned in the post with the first being some sort of bank robbery set. It contains Spider-Man and two robbers who have the words Avengers in their names. The other set mentioned is a car-type set. The minifigures that are said to be in that set include Spider-Man, Vulture with brick-built wings, Shocker, and Iron Man. There aren’t much details to go by but it’s interesting to see what we could be expecting to see next summer. Again, these are purely rumors until something official is released but Delta has been correct in these sort or things so it’s hard to go against.

LEGO Dimensions Adventure Time Marceline Fun Pack (71285) Widespread Issues

LEGO Dimensions Adventure Time Marceline Fun Pack (71285)

If you purchased the LEGO Dimensions Adventure Time Marceline Fun Pack (71285) from Toys R Us and intend to use her in the game, you may want to return it or contact LEGO Dimensions Support as there has been reports of widespread issues with the NFC chip. Basically, the tags for Marceline herself are coming up empty and it contains no data for the system to detect. I’m hearing that this issue is only affecting North America and the ones in the UK seem to be fine.

As far as I know, TT Games has not acknowledged the issue publicly but Toys R Us has issued a stop sale on the Fun Packs and has started pulling them from the floor. The link for the TRU product page has also been taken down. If you see them available for purchase, I suggest don’t buy it until the issue is fixed. For those who just collect the minifigures and have no interest in playing the LEGO Dimensions itself, that doesn’t really matter but for those who do, I suggest contacting support in the link above to see about getting a replacement tag.

The LEGO Batman Movie Activity Book Exclusive Tartan Batman Minifigure

The LEGO Batman Movie Chaos in Gotham City Activity Book

Amazon has finally started to release the final book covers for The LEGO Batman Movie and one of the books may be more interesting out of the list. What makes it interesting is that The LEGO Batman Movie Chaos in Gotham City Activity Book will include a new exclusive Tartan Batman minifigure variant. As you can see from the image above, the Tartan Batman minifigure is sort of in a barbaric style with his torso while wielding a sword. You can pre-order the Activity Book now on Amazon and it will be available on January 31, 2017.

LEGO Super Heroes 2017 Movie Set Rumors

Delta Customs over Instagram has been giving out some details of some LEGO super hero movie sets that are coming out next year. For the Wonder Woman movie, one set that is mentioned will include Wonder Woman, Steve Trevor, and a brick-built Ares similar to Ant-Man in the Super Hero Airport Battle.

Finally, there’s some news about more LEGO Batman Movie sets. The first set has Bane, Mutant Leader, and Batman. The second set is a Scarecrow aircraft with Scarecrow and Batman minifigures. The last set mentioned is a Two-Face vehicle and has at least Two-Face and Batman minifigures.

LEGO 2017 Colorable Wall Calendar

LEGO 2017 Colorable Wall Calendar

Starting next week from November 28-December 11, LEGO will be giving away a FREE LEGO 2017 Colorable Wall Calendar with purchases of $75 or more, while supplies last. Without spoiling the contents of the calendar, I can tell you that each month has a scene with minifigures that kids can color which you see a preview of on the back cover. There are also two sheets of stickers included as well.

If you have this year’s Wall Calendar, you’ll notice that this calendar doesn’t have any coupons for any future promotions. Unfortunately for next year, it doesn’t look like LEGO will be continuing with that promo, at least here in the US, which is bummer since there were some neat items on it even though they were small.

I feel that the LEGO 2017 Colorable Wall Calendar will be most beneficial for teachers as they can take apart the pages and photocopy the ones with the scenes for the kids. Thank you to the LEGO Shop@Home Affiliate Team for sending me one to review.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223) Review

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

We’re getting close to the Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend and for the last couple of years, LEGO has been giving away some great holiday sets for their gift with purchase promo and it looks like 2016 continues the trend.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

For this year, LEGO will be giving away the Seasonal Snowglobe (40223) with purchases of $99 or more from November 25-28, while supplies last. VIP members already got early access to the set this past weekend. The Snowglobe consists of a 215 pieces which are in three un-numbered bags. If you check the parts inventory, there are a number of rare pieces in this set.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

The build of the Snowglobe is in three parts, the base, globe area, and the pull-out drawer.

The base is 8×8 house-type setting with windows on the sides and a hole in the front for the drawer later on.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

For the globe area, you have the Santa minifigure inside along with a Christmas tree. There are also fourteen 1×1 white round tiles to represent the snow.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

Lastly, you have the drawer which is also the front of the house complete with the door and torches. You’ll notice that when building the drawer, there are some unsightly yellow bricks that do not match the overall color scheme of the Snowglobe itself.

LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223)

Overall, the LEGO Seasonal Snowglobe (40223) is a very neat set. Although we’ve seen some good sets during the holidays in the past, this year’s set is probably one of the best produced so far. The “snow” pieces don’t actually float but … Continue

LEGO City: Undercover Coming to PS4, XBox One, Nintendo Switch, PC in 2017

LEGO City: Undercover

WB Games has announced that LEGO City: Undercover will be coming to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC/Steam in Spring 2017. If you remember, LEGO City: Undercover lets you take control of Chase McCain in sort of a toned down Grand Theft Auto-style game that was released for the Nintendo Wii U back in 2013.

If you’re a LEGO City collector, there was a Chase McCain Minifigure Polybag (5000281) that was released with pre-orders of the game and he was eventually released in the High Speed Chase (60007) and will be coming back again in 2017 with the High-Speed Chase (60138).

I’m leaning towards the former.

Exclusive LEGO Lester Minifigure Limited to 275

Earlier today on the other side of the pond, the new LEGO flagship store at Leicester Square opened up and members of the LEGO community were there to attend the pre-opening event. You can read up about the store over on Brickset but I want to focus on the Lester minifigure that was available for the AFOL attendees as well as for shoppers.

As you can see from the image above, there are only 275 LEGO Lester minifigures available which makes it one of the most rare minifigures ever produced. This puts Lester around the same level as the early exclusive San Diego Comic Con LEGO minifigures. Huw reported that the extremely limited number of Lester minifigures produced was because there wasn’t more bowler hat pieces due to it being out of production and whatever was left were used for it.

You still have a chance to win Lester when you make a purchase of £55 or more at the Leicester Square store until November 20 or while supplies last.

Red Dwarf Area Found in LEGO Dimensions

Here’s something interesting coming out of Twitter earlier today. LEGO Dimensions designer/writer Joe Moore tweeted out an image of the Red Dwarf area which was found in the Fantastic Beasts Story Pack (71253). As we know, Red Dwarf isn’t an official LEGO license yet, as far was we know, however there was a Red Dwarf project that just hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas just last week.

Does this actually we’ll be getting a Red Dwarf expansion pack in the future? Not necessarily. If you remember from last year, there were stages that included the Jetsons and Flintstones but there weren’t any physical sets that came out of that so this could just be an easter egg like the previous ones.

There are now some official winter 2017 LEGO Juniors sets which comes out from Hoth Bricks. The sets use more LEGO licensed themes like DC Comics and Disney as well as some internal themes like Friends.

If you’re new to LEGO and are not familiar with the Juniors line, it’s a transitions theme for kids who have grown out of DUPLO and is an introduction to the standard LEGO bricks.

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim’s Feast (40204) Review

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim's Feast (40204)

Thanksgiving is only a week away and to celebrate the holiday, LEGO has released the LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim’s Feast (40204)icon. The set contains 163 pieces and normally retails for $9.99 but you can get it for half off on Shop@Home and at the LEGO Store. The contents of the box include three un-numbered bags and the instructions.

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim's Feast (40204)

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim's Feast (40204)

The build is pretty simple and like the set names states, it features a chubby pilgrim stuffing his face with some turkey while sitting on a a pumpkin. The legs are are hinges so they can be separated depending on what sitting position you want him at. The arms are on ball joints and they have a wide range of motion while each hand is holding a turkey drumstick. The head does not move and to me, he has a derpy expression. Some may say he looks creepy but I think it looks fine. One thing to note that the nose uses a 1×1 round tile in tan which is pretty rare since it is only available in two other 2016 sets.

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim's Feast (40204)

LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim's Feast (40204)

Overall, I think the LEGO Seasonal Pilgrim’s Feast (40204)icon is one of the better Seasonal sets that LEGO has released this year. Combine that with the lower price the set goes for now, it’s a good one to pick up.

LEGO Year of the Rooster 2017 Set Revealed

Here’s something cool for the readers who follow the lunar calendar. 2017 will be the Year of the Rooster according to a Weixin post, a LEGO Year of the Rooster set will be given away to those who were born in those particular years (1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005, 2017) via a voucher at the Shanghai LEGO Store from January 13-22. For those in other parts of the world who want one, it’s most likely you won’t find it available unless you purchase it off the secondary market.

LEGO continues to please the Asian market with these sets based on the years of the Chinese zodiac. In 2013, the Year of the Snake (10250) was released. In 2015, fans had the Year of the Sheep (40148) while this year had the Year of the Monkey (40207). Now I just have to wait until 2018 for my Year of the Dog set, if there is one.

The LEGO Batman Movie Sets Showing Up at Target

The LEGO Batman Movie sets have started showing up at various Target stores and someone on Eurobricks was able to purchase the set and they have showed off some of the unannounced sets in the back of the instructions. The first set is Clayface Splat Attack (70904) which is the set with the brick-built Clayface as well as Batman and the Mayor. In the same thread, an image of set 70910 is shown off that features a motorcycle pizza delivery with Scarecrow, Batman, and a security guard. The set can combine with The Joker Balloon Escape (70900) and Mr. Freeze Ice Attack (70901) to create a larger playset.

Keep in mind the official release for some of The LEGO Batman Movie sets aren’t until December so Target may not sell them to you even if they are displayed already. Someone over on Reddit has found the DPCI numbers for the sets if you want to go searching for them.

LEGO Technic 40th Anniversary Brick in 2017 Sets

2017 will mark the 40th anniversary of the LEGO Techinc theme. As I mentioned in the winter 2017 rumor post, the sets will come with a commemorative brick to celebrate the event. LEGO has started to upload official images to their servers and sure enough, one of the bricks that will be included in the 2017 sets will be one of these commemorative bricks.

LEGO Ninjago Stone Armor Cole (5004393) Now Available as Toys R Us Promo

LEGO Ninjago Cole (5004393)

A few weeks ago, I reported the LEGO Ninjago Stone Armor Cole (5004393) was found at Toys R Us stores here in the US. It looks like the promotion for the minifigure has begun. From now until November 11, you can get it for free with LEGO purchases of $30 or more. TRU was hiding them behind the registers and if you don’t get it when you check out, ask for it. The item number for it is 313133.

I asked my store if they would sell it individually and they gave me a strict no on that. I’ve seen images of stores selling it by itself for $6.99/$7.99 each so your mileage may vary and depends on how lenient your store is. Also they said that after the promotion ends, they would not sell the leftovers like they do with the minifigure polybags and the LEGO representative will come by and take them back. If this is the case, hopefully we’ll see some sort of LEGO promo next year for it. If you remember, LEGO did that with the Easter Minifigure (5004468) aka the Chicken Suit Guy earlier this year.

How to Get the Exclusive LEGO Lester Minifigure Revealed

LEGO Lester

If you’ve been wanting to know how to get the exclusive Lester minifigure for the grand opening of the flagship LEGO Brand Store in Leicester Square, Brickset has given the details.

For every purchase over £55 during November 16-20, you’ll be given a scratch card. There, you’ll be given a chance to win either the LEGO Lester minifigure or the LEGO Creator Parrot (30472) polybag. This move by LEGO is very questionable and will certainly be met with disappointment by fans. This will also feed the secondary market and make this minifigure a pretty pricey one. Hopefully, this isn’t a beginning of a trend with the scratchers.

LEGO Dimensions Hermoine Fun Pack Includes Hippogriff

In a recent interview with MuggleNet, Arthur Parsons gave some new information on what will be coming in the SDCC confirmed LEGO Dimensions Hermoine Fun Pack. According to Arthur, the build that will come with the Fun Pack is a brick-built Hippogriff which can be rebuilt into two other creatures. One of the rebuild is an Owl and the other is possibly Hermoine’s cat, Crookshanks but that is not confirmed.

There’s no word on release date yet but it’ll most likely be next year in Wave 7.5 or Wave 8. Head on over to Mugglenet in the link above to hear their interview with Arthur.

Thanks to Jeremy B. for the heads up.

LEGO Sculpture Giveaways by Artist David Tracy

A few weeks ago, David did a livestrem over on Tastemade where he created an ice cream cone, a tea cup, and an apple and pear. All you have to do is to follow his Instagram page and like the picture(s) you’re interested in winning. If you’re trying for the pear and apple picture, the apple has been sold so you’re only trying to win the pear.

Remember to get there early as these building events are pretty popular and can run out of stock quickly.

Hopefully the trailer will show off more of the villains of the movie since there should be a plethora of them.

Speaking of The LEGO Batman Movie, there’s a list over on Eurobricks and on Brickset of more sets that we should be getting. Note that the set names are just placeholders with some of the villains. I’ll mark the ones that we know are confirmed from the SDCC and NYCC reveals. Keep in mind that nothing is confirmed but CM4sci stated that 90% of the list is correct so there’s that.

LEGO Leicester Square Lester Official Minifigure Revealed

LEGO Lester

Back in September, it was revealed that UK’s new flagship LEGO Brand Store in Leicaster Square with have a mascot named Lester. There is now an image that has been released of Lester in actual minifigure form coming from LEGO’s social media sites.

Anyways, Lester looks pretty much exactly like what we saw in the reveal image with him having a suit with the Union Jack design and a bowler hat. The image also shows with with an umbrella and a camera but I’m not sure if they come with it, if it is released. There’s still no word on how you can obtain the minifigure but I’m sure LEGO will be announcing something as we get to the store opening date of November 17.

LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420) Review

LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420)

The past few years, LEGO has released exclusive ornaments as part of promotions and for 2016, they’ve continued to do so with the LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420). It is currently available for free with purchases of $50 or more at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home, while supplies last. The Toy Soldier is the largest of these types of ornaments to be released coming in at 34 pieces.

Like with the previous ornaments, the Toy Soldier comes in a resealable package which holds the blue fabric bag the parts are in. The contents include two small bags this time, the instructions, and the string.

LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420)

The build is pretty straightforward as you build from the bottom up. I do like the use of the 1×2 plate with the handles on the sides for his moustache. When we first saw an image of the set, we couldn’t see if it included the printed tile for the year but sure enough we do get a printed 2×2 tile with 2016 on it.

LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420)

Overall, I do like the new LEGO Christmas Toy Soldier Ornament (5004420) as it’s another addition to the growing collection of promtional Christmas tree ornaments with the Train (5002813) in 2014 and the Christmas Tree (5003083) in 2015. If you can’t get the Toy Soldier Ornament for whatever reason, you can build your own with the instructions below, minus the exclusive 2016 2×2 tile.

LEGO Ideas Hulkbuster UCS Achieves 10,000 Supporters

The Hulkbuster UCS by Raychow is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. Obviously, the build is based on the Hulkbuster seen in Avengers: Age of Ultron and the Hot Toys version. We already had an official version of the character with The Hulk Buster Smash (76031) but that one is puny compared to the detailing of the proposed one.

The Hulkbuster UCS project joins the Boat Repair Shop and Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Bus” as the projects that qualify the Third 2016 Review Stage.

LEGO continues the tradition of releasing these ornaments as a promotional gift for 2016. In 2014, they released the Train (5002813) while 2015 had the Christmas Tree (5003083). Both of the previous sets had exclusive printed tiles of the years. The official images for the Toy Soldier doesn’t show a tile for 2016 but hopefully, it’ll be on the back of the build which we can’t see at the moment.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Doctor Strange Movie Poster

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Doctor Strange

Earlier today, LEGO posted a poster of the first Doctor Strange movie poster but in LEGO form as they usually do. The poster features Benedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange standing in front of the window of his Sanctum Sanctorum.

Doctor Strange will be opening here in the US next Friday and LEGO has released a set for the movie which you can now purchase on Shop@Homeicon. I’ve already done a review of Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum (76060) so if you haven’t checked it out yet, you can read over at this link.

LEGO Ninjago Stone Armor Cole (5004393) Reportedly Available at Toys R Us

A reader has sent in some information about the LEGO Ninjago Cole (5004393) minifigure box which was revealed back in June. They have stated that they found them in stock at Toys R Us and are available for purchase for $7.99 each. I believe Toys R Us Canada has it available for free with qualifying LEGO purchases of $25 or more this week.

If you’re not familiar with this version of Cole, it is the Stone armor version of the character in the Rebooted storyline from a few years ago and hasn’t been released before. The box itself is similar to the LEGO Nexo Knights King’s Guard (5004390) which opens up in the middle to reveal the minifigure along with a background of the theme. It was given away as part of a voucher promotion from the 2016 LEGO Calendar. The December 2016 LEGO Calendar does show that will be getting a 2017 Wall Calendar but there’s no word on whether there will be any redeemable vouchers like they did in recent years.

As mentioned before, the LEGO Ninjago Stone Armor Cole (5004393) minifigure box was found at a Toys R Us store but your mileage may vary at this time. I’ll try to check the system at work tomorrow to see if I can find out the item number for it or if someone knows the number, please let us know in the comments. I’ll also try to see if there are any upcoming promos here for it as well.

More The LEGO Batman Movie Vehicles Shown Off

The LEGO Batman Movie

Earlier today, Warner Bros. has released a new image for The LEGO Batman Movie which shows off some of his vehicles. We already know of the new Batmobile but the image also shows the classic style Batmobile. Also in the image appears to be some sort of jet, pirate ship, and a hovercraft. Whether or not these vehicles will be in a set remains to be seen but we know there will be at least 12 more sets that don’t have set names or images yet so the vehicles could be one of them.

LEGO Shop@Home Sets Retiring Soon 2016

Long-time reader Daniel has emailed in letting us know that LEGO Shop@Home UK has updated their Retiring Soonicon page and there are some sets that you may want to pick up before they’re gone forever. The US page hasn’t been updated yet but the UK page lets us know which sets will be next to go soon.

LEGO sets usually have a one to two year shelf life while some sets sometimes can last a lot longer while others may be pulled within a year so it’s kind of hard for regular shoppers to guage what sets may be on the shelves.

Below is a list of current sets that have been listed on the UK Retiring Soon page. If you’ve been on the fence on picking them up, now would be a great time to especially with the Double VIP Points event going on. Amazon also has some decent sales on the sets if you prefer that route.

LEGO Disney Moana on the High Seas (41150) First Look

LEGO Disney Moana on the High Seas (41150)

If you glanced over the December 2016 LEGO Store Calendar from earlier today, you may have noticed something new on the back. We now have our first official look at one of the the new LEGO Disney Moana sets based on the movie with Moana on the High Seas (41150).

It’s kind of hard to tell from the image but the set has a little island area as well as a little raft with a sail. You also get the Moana minidoll as well as the Maui bigfig.

The calendar states that the set will be available in December and there’s another set coming in 2017. What do you guys think of the set? Does it strike your fancy?

LEGO Gingerbread Man (5005156) Coming Back for Limited Time in December

LEGO Gingerbread Man (5005156)

Earlier today, I reported on December 2016 LEGO Store Calendar and there’s some interesting news that comes from that. The first one I’ll be reporting on this the return of the free Gingerbread Man (5005156) with purchases of $50 or more at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home from December 12-18.

The Gingerbread Man minifigure itself is not new as it was in the Series 11 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71002) but it does not have the red “Dunk Me!” cup. However, it does come with a decorative box in the form of a Gingerbread House similar the Easter Minifigure (5004468) from earlier this year.

So if you missed out on the Gingerbread Man minifigure from three years ago, December will be your best chance to get one, outside of the secondary market. It’s currently going for $10+ over on BrickLink. The promotion will last seven days but I have a feeling that it’ll be sold out before that so get your orders in early. Hopefully we’ll be able to find it at Toys R Us as well like with the Easter Chicken which as able to be purchased individually at $4.99 each.

LEGO Star Wars Summer 2017 Rumored Sets

There are more rumors of some LEGO Summer 2017 sets and this time it’s for LEGO Star Wars courtesy of Hoth Bricks.

There are two more sets for The Force Awakens with the Quadjumper and the Guavian Death Gang. There’s also some more Freemaker Adventure sets which is interesting to see since there was only a small initial wave.

There’s also the two Battle Packs which makes sense since there’s only two coming out in the winter wave instead of the usual four.

The Imperial Hovertank is a headscratcher since there’s already one for the Rogue One wave but I’ve heard that it could be from the the Battlefront game.

The Rebel Hanger could be a store exclusive as it was revealed on Brickset and not from Hoth Bricks. The Vader Transformation set will be the first standalone set for this scene since 2005 although we saw part of it in Emperor Palpatine’s Shuttle back in 2010.

Episode 4-7 Battle Pack (75166) – 15€
Episode 4-7 Battle Pack (75167) – 15€

LEGO Super Heroes Summer 2017 Set Numbers and Rumors

First we’ll have three LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets based on the upcoming Spider-Man Homecoming movie for sets 70682, 76083, and 76084. There’s also one set 76088 which is unknown at this moment of what it will be.

Cool LEGO Shopping Bag Concept

Here’s something fun to look at heading into the weekend. A few readers have forwarded me this post by Junho Lee and Hyun Chul Choi at the New York School of Visual Arts of a what they’ve called a LEGO Hand Bag. The bag features a standard shopping bag but there’s also a minifigure hand at the top to make it seem like it’s the person has a minifig hand. It’s a pretty neat concept that I would like to see implemented at LEGO Stores some day.

More The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) Rumors

The LEGO Batman Movie

We already know there will be a line of The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71017) which will have 20 minifigures in the wave but there’s some new information coming out of Eurobricks for them. Delta Customs has stated there will be 7 different Batsuits, 10 villains, and 3 neutral characters.

If you watched the SDCC trailer, there were a lot of Batsuits that were shown in less than 10 seconds so any of them could be one of the minifigures in the set and maybe even some that weren’t even shown in the trailer. As for the villains, we’ve already seen plenty of them in the sets that have been revealed so far but director Chris McKay has stated that the Rogues Gallery will be filled out in LEGO so there’s plenty of villains to choose from. As for the neutral characters, that could be just anyone’s guess.

The LEGO Batman Movie Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522) Polybag Found

**Image has been removed by LEGO’s request.**

It looks like the news today will be geared more for The LEGO Batman Movie. First up is a new polybag found by the folks over at PromoBricks called Batman in the Phantom Zone (30522). The polybag features a standard Batman minifigure with the new utility belt piece along with some sort of device.

If you’re not familiar with the Phantom Zone, it is a realm in the DC Universe used to imprison criminals. This makes the Batman in the Phantom Zone polybag much more interesting and makes you curious of how the Phantom Zone figures into the movie.

This polybag was found on eBay so there’s no information on where or when it will be distributed. I’m hoping that it’ll be a GWP at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home.

The 550 piece set will retail for $59.99/£49.99/€59.99 and will be available on November 1. The set will have minifigures of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr as well as Jeremy. I’m sure a lot of AFOLs will appreciate the set as The Beatles are one of the most popular bands in music history. Check out the official description of the Yellow Submarine (21306) below.

LEGO Ideas The Beatles Yellow Submarine (21306)

Take a surreal trip under the seas in the LEGO® version of the Yellow Submarine from the iconic 1968 animated musical fantasy film inspired by The Beatles. Ideal for display or role-play fun, the Yellow Submarine features loads of cool, authentic details including a cockpit for the included minifigures of John, Paul, George and Ringo.

Kevin Szeto’s motivation for creating the Yellow Submarine

“As an amateur musician and songwriter, I have always been drawn to the music of The Beatles. The creation of the Yellow Submarine model was really my way of showing my affection for The Beatles, as well as trying to pay a small tribute to The Beatles phenomenon. The Yellow Submarine is bright, fun, and colourful, which also made it a good subject to translate into LEGO form”, Kevin said as he shared his motivations for building the Yellow Submarine.

Justin Ramsden’s (LEGO designer) motivations were also very much centred around his love for the iconic band, as he was given

The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies! Review

The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies!

Have you ever wanted to learn how to start making LEGO animation videos but don’t know where to start? David Pagano from Paganomation and David Pickett from Brick 101 will be releasing a new book from No Starch Press called The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies! This book will give you an introduction on how to bring your builds to life with stop-motion animation.

The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies!

The book is separated into easy-to-follow chapters for the different steps of production. The first chapter gives you some of the basics of brickfilming like what kind of equipment is needed, how to set up the scene, and so on. The book will elaborate more with their own dedicated chapters as you go.

The LEGO Animation Book: Make Your Own LEGO Movies!

The next chapter solely talks about how to animate a LEGO minifigure. One of the main subjects for LEGO stop-motion videos is the minifigure and here the authors teach you how to make it seem like it’s moving. The chapter also gives you tips on how to animate facial expressions as well as giving the minifigure some movement so it actually covers a lot for just how to animate a minifigure.

In the middle of the book, the authors also give you the full instructions and parts list on how to build the PaganoPuppet which is the one shown on the front cover of the book.

Disguise LEGO Ninjago Lloyd Prestige Costume

Halloween is coming up in a few weeks and it’s about that time to search for costumes for kids. Earlier this year at New York Toy Fair, Disguise showed off some new costumes for LEGO Nexo Knights and LEGO Ninjago. Fast forward to last month where Disguise announced a multi-year deal with LEGO to produce official costumes. The LEGO costumes are now available and Disguise has sent us a medium-sized LEGO Ninjago Lloyd Prestige Costume. The contents of the box include the tunic, pants, mask, and a pair of hands.

Help Beyond the Brick Get to BrickLive Birmingham

Our friends over at Beyond the Brick, who have just hit 100,000 subscribers, who are known for filming various LEGO conventions across the US and interviewing members of the LEGO community.

For one of their future projects, they’re looking to expand their coverage and attend BrickLive Birmingham in the UK at the end of October. They’re currently running a KickStarter to fund their trip overseas to film one of the largest LEGO conventions on the other side of the Atlantic.

For some of the KickStarter rewards, they’ve enlisted some builders in the community to create LEGO builds as part of the reward for certain pledge levels such as John Matz, Chris McVeigh, and Tyler Clites, just to name a few. This will be on top of the DVD you’ll be receiving of the show which won’t be posted to their YouTube channel.

They have about 24 left on the KickStarter as of this writing and they’ve already gathered a quarter of the goal so they’re off to a great start. Let’s keep it up and get Beyond the Brick to the UK.

Lepin Moves from LEGO Sets to LEGO Fan Designs

The past day or so, I’ve gotten a lot of emails regarding this piece of “news.” I saw some images on Facebook yesterday morning about it but brushed it off because I didn’t want to advertise it. A lot of people who saw the same images are outraged that this is going on and wanted me to write about it and maybe LEGO can see what’s happening.

If you didn’t read about it a few weeks ago, LEGO filed a civil action against LEGO bootleg company Lepin and the cases have been accepted in Chinese courts for further judgment. Well since Lepin is having some legal issues copying official LEGO sets, they’ve now turned to LEGO fans for inspiration for their next sets.

As you can see above, they’ve launched their Creators line and pretty much copied the Barnes & Noble and Starbucks Store project by wooootles on LEGO Ideas. Not only that, they have more sets copied shown on the back of the box such as the International Hotel by lgorlando and the Apple Square University by Pete Stege.

One thing to note is that when you submit your project to LEGO Ideas, you “give rise to any intellectual property right interest, hereunder copyright, patent rights, design rights etc., you hereby assign all rights worldwide to the content generated by you to LEGO” as stated in the Terms of Service so basically LEGO owns the designs of the projects for three years after it is no longer considered for production.

365 Things To Do With LEGO Bricks Book Review

365 Things To Do With LEGO Bricks

DK’s newest book called 365 Things To Do With LEGO Bricks has just been released and I’ve received a copy a few weeks ago but now just have time to review it. Unlike other DK LEGO books where they focus on a particular theme, this book takes a look at different ways you can use LEGO bricks.

When you first pick up the book, you’ll notice the red activity selector and timer on the bottom right. When you press the question mark, you get a random number from 1 to 365 which represents the corresponding activity in the book. The yellow countdown button lets you set the time in 30 second intrements. The blue button is the stopwatch to time your activities. The green button is the start/stop button for the stopwatch. One thing to note is that the timer cannot be removed but it is inserted in a gatefold cover so you can have it available while reading through the book.

365 Things To Do With LEGO Bricks

The first few pages gives you all the activities which are broken down into various categories. Futher along, there’s a spread asking what you feel like doing and it gives examples of some of the activities that are available in the book. If this is the very first time you’ve picked up a LEGO brick, there’s a couple of pages to give you some basic terminology of the bricks.

365 Things To Do With LEGO Bricks

There are a ton of activites that are suggested in the book ranging from simple ones like mixing up your minifigures to create an unique … Continue

LEGO DC Super Hero Girls NYCC 2016 Exclusive Batgirl Revealed

LEGO DC Super Hero Girls NYCC 2016 Exclusive Batgirl

During LEGO’s tour of the New York Comic Con 2016 booth, the host showed off the exclusive that will be given away at the convention this week which will be the Batgirl minidoll. If you didn’t see the press release from this morning, LEGO will be doing daily drawings to give away Batgirl. There’s no word on how the drawing will work but I have a feeling that it’ll be similar to SDCC where you tap the iPad to see if you’re a winner or not. If you can’t make it to NYCC, LEGO is also doing a giveaway on Twitter where you just retweet their giveaway tweet and they’ll randomly choose a winner.

As for the exclusive Batgirl minidoll itself, it looks to be similar to the one in the Batgirl Batjet (41230) but you also get the clamshell with the New York Comic Con cardboard. The images I used are clipped from the video so the resolution isn’t that good but check out the tour of the LEGO NYCC 2016 booth below to see a clearer image of it.

LEGO Dimensions Wave 9 Powerpuff Girls Info

LEGO Dimensions The Powerpuff Girls

It looks like we finally have some new information about some of the LEGO Dimensions expansion packs that will be coming in 2017. NZGamer.com did an interview with LEGO Dimensions producer Doug Heder and he has given some info on what we can expect from some expansion packs coming in the next few months.

A few weeks ago, Wave 7.5 was announced which includes The LEGO Batman Story Pack (71264), the Knight Rider Fun Pack (71286), and The LEGO Batman Movie Fun Pack (71344). There will be a few more expansion packs that will be coming in March that combines with 7.5 to make it Wave 8. We’ve just recently seen The Goonies Sloth minifigure but there’s no word on which wave it will be in.

Finally, we have the rest of the packs that we know of but hasn’t been revealed yet which will be in Wave 9 and they include the Powerpuff Girls, Beetlejuice, and Teen Titans GO! One little detail that Heder has stated is that the heads for the Powerfuff Girls will be newly molded heads on a standard minifigure body, similar to what we’ve seen for some new minifigures like E.T., Sonic, and the Gremlins. I think that’s good since all the new minifigures have molded heads to make them looks as close as the source material as possible and I’m pretty sure that fans wouldn’t want standard minifigure heads of the girls as it would look all weird.

Rumored LEGO Dimensions GameStop Black Friday 2016 Exclusives

LEGO Dimensions Green Arrow (71342) E3 Promo

Here’s some interesting news which comes from my friend Alex about some LEGO Dimensions exclusives for GameStop at Black Friday 2016. He overheard an employee mention that the Supergirl (71340) and Green Arrow (71342) promotional polybags will be exclusives during the shopping event.

As we all know by now, the two minifigure polybags have been pretty rare so far as Supergirl has only been available through the PlayStation 4 Starter Pack as a timed exclusive and the Green Arrow has been given away at various conventions like SDCC, E3, and recently at TwitchCon.

As always, take this piece of news as a rumor until it is confirmed by the GameStop Black Friday ad which should be coming out very soon in which I’ll do an updated post about it.

LEGO Shop@Home Force Friday Darth Revan Debacle

Force Friday 2016 is here but not without the hiccups. Technically, the event started at midnight EST/9pm PST but knowing how LEGO Shop@Home runs even with the new design didn’t satisfy customers. For those who were patiently waiting to make a purchase online and get the Darth Revan minifigure, I’m sorry to say that that promo may have ran out. Keep in mind that the Rogue One sets weren’t even available yet at this time which was a double bust. At of this writing at 8:00am PST, the Rogue One sets are now availableicon with Double VIP Points but no Revan. Your best chance to score one is at the LEGO Store, if you have one nearby.

Clearly, LEGO screwed up big time with this promotion and I’m pretty sure there will be a lot of unhappy fans who were waiting to pick one up. I’ve read that some people already had issues last night making their purchases with them not going through or placing multiple orders, which probably took up some of the Revan inventory. I love LEGO but these issues with the site, especially during promotional times, need further internal testing. Were any of you successful in getting Revan before they ran out?

It was December 4, 2014 when Carl Greatrix submitted his Caterham Super Seven project on LEGO Ideas. Fast forward to May 2015 when the project hit 10,000 supporters and was approved to become an official LEGO Ideas set a year later. The Caterham Seven 620R (21307) was announced last week and the folks over at LEGO has sent us a review copy of the set. Coming at 771 pieces and retailing for $79.99, it is the largest Ideas set in terms of piece count as well as being the most expensive one to be released so far. The contents of the box include six numbered bags and the instruction booklet.

LEGO Ideas Boat Repair Shop Achieves 10,000 Supporters

The Boat Repair Shop by RobenAnne is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. This is also the first project to make it the Third 2016 Review Stage.

If this project looks familiar, that is because RobenAnne also created the Old Fishing Store which also hit 10,000 supporters back in January and this project is a follow up to it. Like with the previous one, the Boat Repair Shop is also modular and has lots of features such as the boat ramp with a crane, work floor, and a storage attic.

LEGO Seasonal Exclusive Limited Edition Snowglobe (40223) Coming in November

LEGO Seasonal 2016 Christmas Ornament (40223)

If you didn’t see our post of the November 2016 LEGO Store Calendar, there are some pretty cool promotional gift with purchases during the month including the exclusive limited edition Snowglobe (40223). The Snowglobe was actually revealed way back in January and even the instuctions were available for a short time before being taken down.

The Snowglobe (40223) has the same aesthetics as a normal snowglobe with Santa and a Christmas tree being the centerpiece. The bottom area is actually a storage area that you can pull out using white plates with handle to put your keepsakes in.

The Snowglobe will only be available during Brick/Black Friday/Cyber Monday, November 25-28 with purchases of $99 or more, while supplies last. I have a feeling that it won’t last all four days at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home so if you plan on making a purchase, do it early during the promotional timeframe. Also, this if for North America and I’m not sure when Europe will have their turn.

The LEGO Group Files Civil Action Against Lepin

You may heard or seen pictures of a Chinese company called Lepin reproducing bootleg copies of various LEGO sets and selling them on the market for a fraction of the normal retail price. People who aren’t LEGO enthusiasts may not immediate know the difference between the Lepin clones and LEGO as they have similar logo fonts and packaging but us fans know it very well.

There’s news coming out of the LEGO Ambassador Network earlier this morning that The LEGO Group has filed civil actions in China against Lepin and the cases have been accepted in Chinese courts. Whether or not TLG will win these cases remain to be seen. You can check out the whole post below.

Dear RLUG Ambassadors,

We would like to confirm that the LEGO Group have recently filed civil actions in China against the manufacturer and distributor of LEPIN/乐拼 branded construction toys. Our cases have been accepted by Chinese courts and are now pending for trials. We expect the 1st instance decision to be handed down in approximately one years’ time. Please note that LEPIN will not be legally barred from marketing and selling its products while the case is being heard by the courts.

We deeply appreciate and share the LEGO community’s concern and frustration about passing-off or imitation of LEGO® products. We are committed to do whatever necessary to protect the LEGO brand and products against undue exploitation, and to minimize the risk of consumers being misled via improper use of LEGO Group intellectual property assets.

We want to

LEGO Creator Winter Holiday Train (10254) Review

LEGO Creator Winter Holiday Train (10254)

Last month, LEGO officially announced the next set in the Winter Village theme with the LEGO Creator Winter Holiday Train (10254)icon. LEGO released another Holiday Train (10173) back in 2006 but this is a completely new train unlike what happened last year with the winter set. If you remember, LEGO released the Winter Toy Shop (10249)icon and a lot of people weren’t happy with that since it was just a rehash of the previous toy shop with slight updates. For the Winter Holiday Train, it is slightly different than the previous one and not a total copy. It comes in at 734 pieces and retails for $99.99. The contents of the box include one un-numbered bag, six numbered bags, 16 loose track pieces, and the two instruction booklets that are neatly sealed.

One thing to note is that I do not own 10173 so I have no basis for comparison and will just be reviewing this new set.

LEGO Speed Champions Winter 2017 Rumored Sets

When the list of rumored LEGO 2017 sets came out last month, one theme that was missing for the initial wave was LEGO Speed Champions. A few days after that, the rumored sets for Speed Champion was indeed released which you can see below.

Mercedes-AMG GT3 (75877)
Bugatti Chiron (75878)
Scuderia Ferrari SF16-H (75879)
Mercedes Pit Stop (75880)
2016 Ford GT & 1966 Ford GT40 (75881)
Ferrari FXX K & Development Center (75882)
Formula 1 Mercedes AMG Petronas (75883)

As you can see, there’s a new car manufacturer with Bugatti and the Chiron should be interesting to see. Technically, Bugatti isn’t a new license as Volkwagen now owns it. Some existing manufacturers are also returning for 2017 with Mercedes, Ferrari, and Ford. After seeing this list of the winter 2017 LEGO Speed Champions sets, which ones are you looking forward to picking up?

New The LEGO Batman Movie 2017 Set Rumors

The LEGO Batman Movie

It’s been heck of a long day but it’s time to relax and do some posts on what’s been going on in the LEGO world the past half day or so. The LEGO Batman Movie forums over on Eurobricks has been pretty active with talks about some of the rumored sets that will be released in conjunction with the movie.

We already know about the two sets that were revealed during San Diego Comic Con with The Batmobile (70905) and The Joker Notorious Lowrider (70906) which are the medium-sized sets in the wave.

CM4Sci has revealed Catwoman’s Cycle (70901) which retails for $19.99 and includes minifigures of Batgirl, Robin, and Catwoman. The build includes Catwoman’s bike and a jewelry store front. It’s also mentioned that this is not the smallest set in the wave.

There’s also rumored set called The Scuttler. Some of the minifigures that are mentioned in that set include Poison Ivy with a plant monster, Batman with a jetpack, Robin, Barbara, and Commissioner Gordon in Gala outfits and a spirit. The Scuttler itself is sort of a mech shaped like a bat and walking on its limbs.

As with any rumors, take this info with some caution but they can most likely be true considering CM4sci’s track record. I’ve also reported on some other The LEGO Batman Movie rumors last month if you want to check those out as well.

Since then as far as I know, it had a pretty limited release with it being available only at LEGOLAND parks.
