LEGO Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi Free Collectible Poster Promo Now Live

July 19, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

The next LEGO Star Wars free poster promotion is now going and for any LEGO Star Wars purchase you make at LEGO Brand Stores or on Shop@Home, you can get the Episode VI: Return of the Jedi one. This is the third Star Wars collectible poster that has been released since May and it completes the original trilogy with the prequel trilogy ones starting next month. Again, these collectible posters are already folded when you receive them but are still cool enough to be hung on a wall. This promo will only last a week and will end on July 26th so get it while you can.

LEGO Star Wars SDCC 2015 Dagobah Mini-Build Building Instructions

July 15, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

You guys wanted it and here it is. On the third day of San Diego Comic Con 2015, LEGO had on sale for ticketed attendees the LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build set. I’ve opened up the set and have provided readers with the building instructions for the set.

For this set, there are a few rare pieces like the tan satellite dish 4617765, the 2x2w bow 6055868, the dark tan jumper plate 6092591, the dark tan round plate 6038461, and the olive green 1×1 plate 6058245. Also, the gray frog has been in a few sets but it’s mostly been used in the modular sets so they could be fairly rare too. Finally, the complete R2-D2 minifigure has only been in two sets, the Jedi Interceptor (75038) and the Sandcrawler (75059).

Head over to my Flickr album to see all the building steps for the Dagobah Mini-Build in an organized fashion or you can download the PDF I’ve also provided to use at your leisure.

I hope you guys have enjoyed these building instructions for the SDCC 2015 exclusive sets. As I’ve been telling readers, I feel that these builds should be enjoyed by as much people as possible and this is a way for me to give back to the LEGO community.

LEGO Star Wars Death Star (10188) Listed as Sold Out on Shop@Home

July 14, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

Well it looks like the time is finally here. The iconic LEGO Star Wars Death Star (10188) has finally been listed as “Sold Out” on Shop@Home. The status was changed from “Call to check product availability” just yesterday so it may seem that the set will be finally retiring after 7 long years on the market. You can still pick up the Death Star Amazon at retail price and some LEGO Brand Stores may still have some left. I did hear from a source that the Death Star will be gone by the end of the year and it looks like it may be happening sooner than we think. If you have been holding off on picking it up, I suggest you drop what you’re doing and go get it.

There was a rumor earlier this year that a new Death Star set would be coming out in 2016 to replace the current one. With the news of set 10188 listed as sold out on Shop@Home combined with the rumor, it’s possible that we will actually be seeing a new one next year.

LEGO Star Wars Hoth Echo Base Set Teaser?

July 7, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

LEGO has published a new mini movie over on the LEGO Star Wars minisite called the Battle of Hoth and it may give a teaser for the new LEGO Star Wars Hoth Echo Base set that’s rumored to be released in October. The last Hoth Echo Base was released back in 2011 and it looks like there will be a lot of updates and play features to go along with it.

The mini movie shows the entrance to the base itself and the control room. There are also a couple of turrets shown as well as an ion cannon. The shield generator is also shown in the video which might mean that it could be in the set too. The previous version did not have it. Other things that are shown includes a e-web turret, a speeder bike, and a snowspeeders. The video also Luke hanging in the Wampa cave but whether that part will be included in the set remains to be seen.

As for the minifigures, there are some Rebel troopers, an updated Leia, K-3PO, and R3-A2 in the Echo Base scene and Han was at the Wampa cave.

LEGO SDCC 2015 Exclusives Schedule

SDCC 2015 LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build

If you’re attending San Diego Comic Con next week and want to get in on the LEGO exclusives, FBTB has given some more details about the drawings, more specifically the days in which the exclusives are sold. We already knew that there will be drawings for the three exclusive sets but we now know that you can’t purchase all of them in one day like previous years.

For this year, each set will only be available a particular day so if you want to get all three sets, you’ll have to stand in line each day to enter the raffles. Sunday is a wildcard day as they will be doing a drawing for all tickets that haven’t been redeemed from Thursday to Saturday. If you were hoping to get the LEGO exclusives on Preview Night, you’re out of luck because nothing will be sold or given away on that day.

Thursday: LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Action Comics #1 Superman™
Friday: LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Throne of Ultron™
Saturday: LEGO Star Wars™ Dagobah™ Mini-Build
Sunday: There will be a drawing for tickets that have not been redeemed on this day

Nothing will be sold or given away on Wednesday, Preview Night.

Watch LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales Early on Disney XD Site

June 30, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

If you can’t wait for LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales to air on July 6, well you’re in luck. The whole first episode, Exit from Endor, is available for viewing on Disney XD. The only thing required is that you have to be signed in to your cable or satellite provider. I can confirm that it works on Firefox but I was having some issues with Chrome and Internet Explorer.

LEGO Star Wars: Droid Tales is a five-part miniseries of 22 minute episodes that will retell the six Star Wars films through C-3PO and R2-D2 perspectives.

Following their victory celebration in the Ewok village on Endor, seen at the close of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, C-3PO and R2-D2 have gathered to regale Luke, Leia, Han, Chewbacca and the other Rebels with the tales of their adventures that led to the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace. An accidental kidnapping occurs while the droids are reminiscing and suddenly viewers are taken on a new adventure that leads to encounters with familiar faces and places that prompt the re-telling of the entire saga. The series offers all of the playful humor that viewers expect from LEGO Star Wars.

June 29, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It looks like all the San Diego Comic Con 2015 LEGO exclusive sets have been revealed and there are now official box art images of the sets. What we didn’t know about the LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build is that there will also be a R2-D2 minifigure included in the set. Although it’s not a new version, it’s nice that one is included. If there’s more sets to be revealed, I’ll add it on to this post.

On another note, I believe there’s still one more exclusive minifigure to be revealed because it was noted on a previous article that the drawings would be held from Thursday through Saturday. The LEGO Marvel Super Heroes All New Captain America (Sam Wilson) and LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Arsenal have already been revealed.

LEGO Star Wars Dagobah Mini-Build – 177 pieces/$39.99
