Amazon LEGO BOGO 40% Deal

I don’t usually do deals but Amazon has a pretty good one going on right now with a BOGO 40% off sale on select toys including LEGO sets from various themes like Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, and Castle. Add a set to your cart and another of equal or lesser value and that one will be 40% off. Some of the sets already are already discounted so you’ll be getting a better deal.

One good deal is the LOTR Pirate Ship Ambush (79008) which has a discounted price of $82.50 and if you buy another one, you’ll be saving $33 on the second one making your total $132 or just $66 each. This is a pretty good way to build up your collection of ships. Another deal is the LOTR Battle at the Black Gate (79007) where you can have a full gate just like the film. Check out the full list of eligible sets here.

More LEGO The Hobbit Video Game Gameplay Details

LEGO The Hobbit Video Game

The LEGO Video Games blog has given us some gameplay details of the LEGO The Hobbit Video Game. There have been some big improvements while navigating through the game or the HUB as the designers call it. In these HUBs, players can now go inside Hobbit houses, find secret tombs, cellars, and Elven and Dwarven ruins. In these secret areas, you can expect to find some nice hidden treasures. These items can be used to enhance character abilities and also to unlock new quests in a brand new quest chain system.

Another thing you can do in story mode is crafting new items by the way of the Blacksmith. You will have to mine hidden LEGO ores found throughout Middle-earth. Also defeating Orcs, Goblins, and Wargs can also net you some of these loot items and can be used to create a Mithril Weapon. Perfect your Blacksmithing skill and you could even create “perfect” items that glows to show its unparalleled craftsmanship. Check out our video below of the PC Demo.
