New LEGO Sets Found in Denmark

May 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Brickset has revealed a couple of neat LEGO sets from various shops by Aanchir who is over in Billund. Some of these sets are exclusive to LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home like the Birthday Cake (40153) which has enough pieces for you to build from ages 1-99 and includes a Jester minifigure. The other sets are a brick-built Piggy Bank (40155) and a LEGO Friends Organizer (40156) shaped like a butterfly. The last set that’s been found is the LEGO Friends Heartlake City Airport (41009) which will most likely be a retailer exclusive set.

Personally, I really like the Birthday Cake set as I can see it being used for many occasions. I also do like they give you all the pieces needed for the ages. There’s no word on when/if the sets will be available for the rest of the world but I sure do hope they make it here one day.

Philly Brick Fest 2015 LEGO Phillie Phanatic

May 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I’ve finally had time to go through the swag bag for registered attendees from Philly Brick Fest a few weeks ago and one of the items included was a LEGO mini build of the Philadelphia Phillies’ famous mascot, the Phillie Phanatic. The Phanatic is recognized as one of the best sports mascots and was the the first mascot to be inducted into the Mascot Hall of Fame.

I believe the LEGO Phanatic build was created by Carter Baldwin (correct me if I’m wrong) and it uses the new LEGO Mixels joints to give it plenty of articulation on the head, arms, and legs. It even has the extendable tongue by the way of a red wand piece. The sticker of the Phillies jersey completes the look of the character.

Overall the mini LEGO Phillie Phanatic is a very neat little build that was included in the swag bag. I really like the look of it compared to the real-life counterpart. I’ll be showing off more swag that I got from my trip in the next few days when I have some free time. I also have tons of pictures to upload of the MOCs that were on dispay so I’ll probably be breaking them up in a couple of posts.

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.
