July 22, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has sent out a press release giving all the details on what will be going on at the LEGO booth (#2829) at San Diego Comic Con 2014 from more exclusive reveals to statues that you can take pictures with. For the first time, attendees will have access to a free build area but this year, they can take their creations home. There are also some details on which exclusive minifigures will be given out on which days. If you aren’t able to attend SDCC 2014, you will have a chance to win the minifigures by following LEGO on Twitter. Read the the full press release below my summary.

LEGO Star Wars

The celebrate 15 years of LEGO Star Wars, LEGO will be showcasing every LEGO Star Wars minifigure ever created which is over 600 in total. There will also be a remote-controlled life-size model of LEGO Chopper from Star Wars Rebels. The press release also notes there will be an unveiling of a 2015 LEGO Star Wars set which I can pretty much say is the UCS Slave I (75060). Finally, the limited mini version of The Ghost will be for sale for $39.99

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes

To celebrate the 75th anniversay of Batman, LEGO will have a life-size model of the Batcycle and sidecar from the classic TV series. There will also be two exclusive sets revealed for 2015 which we already know one will be the UCS Tumbler (76023). The classic Batmobile will be sold in limited quanties … Continue

LEGO Ninjago: The Visual Dictionary Minifigure Revealed

July 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

A few months ago, we reported that there will be some new books from Dorling Kindersley and one of these books is the LEGO Ninjago: The Visual Dictionary. Like with many LEGO DK books, there will be an exclusive minifigure included with the book. Unfortunately with this book, there will not be any new exclusive minifigures but one that is already out in a set. As you can see below, the limited edition minifigure that is included is Zane Rebooted which is already in the Destructoid (70726) set.

With DK, we usually see minifigures that we haven’t seen before like Emperor Palpatine in LEGO Star Wars: The Dark Side and Luke Skywalker in LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary: Updated and Expanded, even though we’ve seen him before but he has updated printing. But with Zane, he’s the exact same one that was in a set so it’s sort of a head-scratcher as to why this minifigure was chosen. I would’ve been happy with even the Brown Ninja.

The LEGO Ninjago: The Visual Dictionary is set to be released on September 15th but you can pre-order the book now on Amazon.

LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids Video Game Trailer

June 6, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Back in March, we reported that LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids will be available for Playstation Vita and Nintendo 3DS. Today, WB Games has released a new trailer for the video game. LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids is the sequel to LEGO Battles: Ninjago and consists of 30 levels that follows the Ninjago Rebooted animated series storyline. The game will be available in July and if you pre-order it from GameStop on their LEGO Day Sale this Saturday, you can get an exclusive poster. GameStop is also offering some other deals but we’re not sure if pre-order the game will net you those deals.

LEGO Ninjago Movie Has Release Date of September 23, 2016

May 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

As we mentioned before back in February, there were reports of a LEGO Ninjago movie by Warner Bros. that could be hitting theaters. According to Variety, the movie has a release date of September 23, 2016. Dan Lin and Roy Lee will join Phil Lord and Christopher Miller as producers for the new Ninjago movie and Charlie Bean will be directing it. It’s still to early to know what the movie will be about but it will probably have the same type of action/adventure style the popular cartoon series currently has.

In addition, the Ninjago movie will hit theaters before the sequel to The LEGO Movie, who has a release date of May 26, 2017. By adding another movie from the LEGO Universe, this could prove to be pivotal in strengthening the relationship between The LEGO Group and Warner Bros. which means the whole franchise will stay with the movie studio. The LEGO Movie opened on February 7th and has grossed $460 million worldwide with $254 million coming domestically.
