New LEGO VIP Program Teaser

June 3, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

If you’re a LEGO VIP member, you may have received an email recently regarding the new LEGO VIP program. First of all, it looks like LEGO is moving away from the red color scheme we’re used to see with the VIP program and going to a blue color scheme.

In the email, they mention some of the new things that are coming to the program such as teasing about more ways to earn points every day, experiences and members-only gifts, and chose how may points to use instead of a reaching a certain level of points.

We already know that the VIP card will be going digital but you can still use a physical one if you want. Also the VIP points expiration clock will reset every time you make a purchase so basically the points stay active for 18 months as long as you make a purchase within that time frame.

Make sure your VIP account is registered as these new features will be rolling out very soon.

LEGO Digital Monthly Store Calendars Rumored to Include Promotions Again

June 3, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For a few months now, the LEGO Monthly Store Calendars have been quite useless as they have stopped showing upcoming promotions on them but that may change soon. I heard from a source that the new digital LEGO Store Calendars could be showing promotions on them again when it rolls out next month. To cater to fans even more, the calendars will be available the last Monday before the next month so for example, the July calendar will presumably be out on June 24. Of course I don’t want to get everyone’s hopes up if none of this happens but I have a good feeling that my source didn’t steer me in the wrong direction.

Last Month to Order from BrickLink AFOL Designer Program

June 2, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The general sale for the BrickLink AFOL Designer Program is now live and you can purchase any of the 13 successfully crowdfunded designs of your choosing. The sale will last until June 30 so as of this writing, there are 28 days left to put your orders in. Technically there are 12 sets that you can readily order as the Löwenstein Castle has been sold out but you can join the waitlist.

Each set will come with an individually numbered sticker on the sleeve of the box as well as a some holographic stickers that make it feel more like a high end product. You can check out more of these details over on Brickset.

LEGO Store Calendars Going Paperless Starting in July

May 27, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It looks like LEGO is making another change that may impact the way you shop at LEGO Stores. You may have received the same email this morning as they have announced that the LEGO monthly store calendar will be going paperless starting in July. I know some of you collect the calendars but most of us just like to have one physically to look at.

I can already see a small problem with this new change. Because the store calendars only show the in-store events for those who still use them, I have a feeling that there will be less people attending them because they have nothing to go on to see what will be happening unless the employees keep reminding them or blogs post about them. Just a quick poll, how many of you actually go to the LEGO Store page to look at the calendar or the in-store events?

Also with the LEGO store calendars going digital in a few months, hopefully they post the current month as well as the month after because that’s what the stores have been doing since forever.

It was about a month ago when I reported that Carter Baldwin will be joining LEGO later this year on their Super Heroes design team and he has now provided instructions for his LEGO Spinner from Blade Runner 2049 for free. They are now available over on Bricks on the Dollar and you can build your own using parts from your collection. While you’re at it, make sure you check out some Carter’s other builds that are available for purchase.

LEGO Mystery Midnight Opening Event at Leicester Square on May 15

April 26, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has teased a mystery midnight opening event at the flagship Leicester Square LEGO Brand Store. The event will be held on Wednesday May 15 from 12:01am-3am local time. Looking at the image above, there’s a classified folder but there is a clue from the photo that is paper clipped on. If you look closely, it looks like the photo shows the top of the head of somebody. I don’t know about you but it sort of looks likes the head of Mike from Stranger Things so that means the opening event could be the rumored LEGO Stranger Things theme that I talked about last month. We here in the US could also see something released that same day at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home. We shall see.
