Tiffany & Co. “Everyday Objects” Building Blocks

November 6, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

Tiffany & Co. is known for their high-end jewelry but today they’ve launched an “Everyday Objects” line that transforms everyday items into expensive objects. One of the more notable items are the $1500 Building Blocks that look like your favorite construction toys. The blocks are made out of sterling silver and American walnut and have various shapes like 2×2 and 2×3. One of the bricks that LEGO does not produce are 2x5s which this set has four of, one of which is complete sterling silver.

If money is no object then you may be interested in the Tiffany & Co. Everyday Objects Building Blocks. Of course, engraving is a little extra but since you’re already dropping $1500 on it, a little bit more is nothing. I can think of a number of LEGO sets that I can drop this amount of money on.

LEGO Minifigures (5004941) Toys R Us Bricktober 2017 Set Now Available

October 22, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

LEGO Bricktober 2017 Minifigures (5004941)

Today starts the last week of Bricktober 2017 at Toys R Us here in the US and with a purchase of $50 or more, you can get the LEGO Minifigures (5004941) set. This one, in my opinion, is one of the more high sought after Bricktober 2017 sets simply because of the minifigure selection. Even though they look they look like previously released minifigures, they are all slightly different from before.

As for the LEGO City Jungle (5004940) set from last week, some stores may sell them starting today for $19.99 each while some stores may hold off until the end of Bricktober to start selling them.

How to Make LEGO a Minifigure Cardboard Costume

October 21, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

It’s almost Halloween and if you’re still looking for a costume and has some time, The Q has released a video on how to make a functional LEGO minifigure costume. This is probably one of the most accurate looking LEGO minifigure costumes I’ve seen but it does take some time and lots of material to create. One thing about it is that it can be used for other occasions besides Halloween and it’s a template for other characters if you want to expand on it.

LEGO Bricktober 2017 City Jungle (5004940) Now Available

October 15, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

If you needed a reminder, the third week of the LEGO Bricktober 2017 promotion at Toys R Us has kicked off here in the US. For this week when you make a purchase of $50 or more in-store, you can get the LEGO City Jungle minifigures for free. If your store has any left, you can also now purchase The LEGO Batman Movie (5004939) set outright for $20.

This week’s promotion has already happened in other countries and will be happening in the UK in November. I have a feeling that there will be a lot of the LEGO City Bricktober set left over after this week as it is fairly weak compared to the LEGO Ninjago and TLBM ones.

LEGO Lester (40308) Polybag Available at Leicester Square

October 1, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 10 Comments

If you remember from last year at the opening of the Leicester Square flagship LEGO Brand Store, there was an exclusive Lester minifigure that was given away that was limited to 275. Well it appears that Lester may not be that limited after all. There’s a new Lester (40308) polybag that can now be purchased at Leicester Square for £5.99 each. This is great for fans who weren’t able one via the scratch card raffle when the store opened but is somewhat of a burn for those who got the original one. This particular Lester minifigure also has a black umbrella which the original one didn’t have so technically the new one is exclusive as well. Is there anyone in London who is able to send me a couple?
