LEGO Employee Exclusive Kladno Campus 2015 (4000018) Found

April 19, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There’s a new image that was emailed to me last night of a new exclusive gift set that has been released to employees only, the LEGO Kladno Campus 2015 (4000018). The set is based on the LEGO factory located in the Czech Republic city of Kladno. For the 15th anniversary of the factory’s opening, LEGO has released the Kladno Campus in an Architecture style set, similar to the one in 2012, the 4000006 set but more updated. See the image below for comparison.

As we know by now, these employee-only gift sets are highly sought for and they usually go for very high prices on the secondary market. They are already going for $150 plus on eBay and BrickLink. Thanks to Joesph for emailing in.

LEGO Upscaled Mugs Now Available

March 2, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

A lot of new products were officially released yesterday but one of the cooler things that was released wasn’t really advertised that much were the new LEGO Upscaled Mugs. You’ve probably seen the mugs in various LEGO sets but now you can own one for yourself that you can use. The Upscaled Mugs are 10 times larger than the ones you find in the sets and they are also stackable for easier storage. Currently, the mugs only come in Blue (853465) and Trans-Purple (853439) and both retails for $12.99 each. I believe the LEGO Stores also has the red ones in stock. You can get them now at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home and they make great gift ideas for any LEGO fan.

LEGO Life of George Apps Being Discontinued

January 25, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

If you have the LEGO Life Of George game you might want to update the apps for it one last time. LEGO is closing down the Life of George and the Build Your Brain apps on February 1st. You will still be able to play the game but it will no longer be supported so that means that the current version will be the last. If you don’t have the set yet, I suggest still downloading it just in case you acquire a set in the future so you can have it. Thanks to Charlie for the heads up.

LEGO Boxes – To Keep or Not To Keep

January 14, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I’ve come to a point in my LEGO career that after collecting sets for the past 3 years, I’ve ran into a small dilemma. During that time, I’ve amassed quite a number of different sets and have built many of them which leaves the boxes laying around in various places. You guys may or may not know about this but I have a habit of keeping a lot of things that take up space, maybe a little too much. Some may even call this hoarding.

The problem now lies with the LEGO boxes that I have. I have two large LEGO Store bags full of them as you can see from the images. Some are quite large while some are pretty small. The question I have for you guys is and I’m pretty sure many of you have run into the same problem. Do you keep the boxes, toss them out, or do you recycle them? If you do keep the boxes, do you also flatten them or keep them intact to keep their integrity for sentimental reasons? Since there are many older sets that will never be produced again, this is probably the last and only chance you can have that particular box in your hands when they are retired from shelves.

Let me know in the comments below or on our Facebook Page of what you do with your LEGO boxes.
