Top 10 LEGO 2019 Sets

December 10, 2019 /

The year is almost coming to an end and I guess this is a good time to list my top 10 LEGO sets for 2019. According to Brickset, there were 785 LEGO products released this year but I’ll only be choosing ten as my favorites. Believe me, there were a lot of good sets that were released so it’s really hard choosing just a tiny fraction of them. Like usual, I’ll be using a number of criteria to rank them.

LEGO Ghostbusters: Afterlife Trailer Released – Sets Rumored for 2020

December 9, 2019 /

The trailer for Ghostbusters: Afterlife dropped today and it is a direct sequel to the original Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II starring Finn Wolfhard, Carrie Coon, Mckenna Grace, and Paul Rudd. What we’re interested here at The Brick Fan is if there are any LEGO sets for Ghostbusters: Afterlife. We’re unsure at this time but rumor has it from Brick Fanatics is that there will be some sets inspired from the film.

As you may know, the Ghostbusters theme isn’t new from LEGO as there has been a number of sets already including the LEGO Ideas Ecto 1 (21108), Ecto 1 & 2 (75828), Firehouse Headquarters (75827), BrickHeadz Peter Venkman & Slimer (41622), and sets for LEGO Dimensions. I wouldn’t be too surprised if there are sets for the new movie.

Ghostbusters: Afterlife releases in theaters on July 10, 2020.

From now until December 24 with purchases of $99 or more, you can get the new LEGO Seasonal Creator Mini Gingerbread House (40337).

Most people were waiting to get it along with the larger Gingerbread House (10267) but it is temporarily out of stock on Shop@Home. The contents of the smaller counterpart include five numbered bags from 1-3, two instruction booklets, and a small sticker sheet.

Rumored LEGO Masters Bag Promotion in Mid-December

December 4, 2019 /

For those who aren’t keen on LEGO switching out plastic bags to paper bags next year, there’s a rumor that there will be a new promotion happening possibly mid-month that could sway your opinion. I’ve been told that there will be a LEGO Masters bag free with any purchase and it’s possible that it might be a reusable one. Obviously LEGO will definitely try to promote the show before the series airs in February. Take this as a rumor for now because LEGO has been doing promotions that aren’t listed on the store calendars.
