LEGO 2017 Rumored Sets and Themes (FALSE)

July 24, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I’m finally done with San Diego Comic Con 2016 and I’ve had time to check my emails and I see quite a few of you have sent me some stuff regarding some rumored LEGO 2017 sets. Apparently, there are reports of an Italian catalog which shows some of the LEGO sets that might be coming out next year. Again, nothing is confirmed until LEGO officially announces them and anything can change between now and 2017 so these are strictly rumors in my book.

The new Power Rangers movie will be hitting the big screen next year and it appears that there will be sets based on it.

Furthermore, Cars 3 will be in theaters next year as well and it looks like there will be a few sets to go along with it.

Next are some sets based on the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales with sets ranging from 75990-75993. This marks the return of the POTC theme which has done fairly well in the past.

In the LEGO City theme, it looks like there’s something called LEGO Sports with a set called Football/Soccer Goalie Practice (61004).

The LEGO Collectible Minifigures will be returning again and this time, they will have purple packaging.

Finally, for The LEGO Batman Movie, it looks like we’re finally getting a bigfig version of Bane.

Update: It is confirmed that all the information above is false and none of the themes listed are true.

LEGO Birthday Buddy (40226) Set Found

July 3, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Some new instructions have been uploaded to LEGO’s servers today and one of the new ones includes a set we haven’t heard about yet, the Birthday Buddy (40226). It looks somewhat like a chocolate birthday cupcake with a candle on top of the head.

There are no details about it like price point or availability but I’m going to guess it’ll be priced at $9.99. I assume we’ll start seeing this set first at LEGOLAND parks as these type of sets usually show up there first and eventually at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home later on.

Thanks to Julio for the email heads up.

June 29, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Today I have a short review of the exclusive LEGO Toys R Us Geoffrey & Friends (40228) set. This set was gifted to me by my store manager at Babies R Us who went to a meeting at the flagship TRU in New York. The set contains 133 pieces and retails for $9.99. It is currently unavailable here in the US for purchase at this time but is available at Toys R Us Germany. The contents of the box include two un-numbered bags, the instruction booklet, and a sticker sheet.

LEGO Inside Tour 2016 Exclusive Set Revealed

June 24, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The last of the LEGO Inside Tour 2016 has concluded and we can finally show the exclusive set that was given out to attendees of the event. Jan Beyer over on Facebook has posted images of the LEGO Truck Show (4000022) which is a national truck tour that started out in 1998. The truck itself is able to open up and show the stuff on the inside and it also includes eight minifigures.

It’s a really cool looking set but if you weren’t one of the LEGO Inside Tour attendees, expect to pay a hefty price for it on the secondary market. Check out a review of the LEGO Truck Show (4000022) over on the Lego with Daniel and Oriel YouTube channel which I’ve embedded below.

LEGO Ninjago and Nexo Knights Official Costumes on Disguise.com

June 13, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Local costume company Disguise.com has posted some of the new LEGO Ninjago and LEGO Nexo Knights for this Halloween season. We first heard about the costumes back in October and we had a sneak peek from the New York Toy Fair.

Characters for Ninjago include Jay, Kai, Nya, and Lloyd while Nexo Knights have Clay, Lance, and Aaron. There are two variations of costumes like Prestige and Deluxe. Both styles have a tunic, pants, mask, and a pair of hands. The only difference is the Prestige have larger foam legs.

I’m still waiting for more information about these costumes from my contact at Disguise which I’ll update later if I get it.

May 25, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Our friends over at PromoBricks has found a new exclusive Toys R Us LEGO set that is available over in Germany. The set is called Geoffrey & Friends (40228) and it features the Toys R Us mascot and two children minifigures. The set contains 133 pieces and retails for €9.99 which will most likely translate to $9.99 if it is released here in the US. As a R Us employee, I would definitely want to pick this set up even with the creepy looking Geoffrey. I checked the system this morning and there was no record of the set at this time but I’ll keep you guys updated.
