January 23, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For today’s LEGO deal of the day on Amazon, there are a number of LEGO Creator sets that you may be interested in that are 20% off the regular price. The Modular Skate House (31081) is at $31.99

The Modular Modern Home (31068) is only $24 which is a very good price for this particular set.

The Modular Poolside Holiday (31067) is down to $23.99 from $29.99.

One of the my favorite smaller sets is the Robo Explorer (31062) which is now at $15.99. I absolutely love the color scheme on this set.

Another set that I really like from this group is the Space Shuttle Explorer (31066) which is now at $23.99. I might have to pick up another one or two of this one to display them in their alternate builds.

Finally, we have the smallest set of this group which is the Mighty Dinosaurs (31058) which is going for only $11.99.

LEGO Downtown Cars Showroom Modular MOC

January 22, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

The LEGO Creator Downtown Diner (10260) has been out for a few weeks now and fans have already taken liberty to modify their sets into their own. One of these builders is Brickdance9 who has changed the Diner into a Downtown Cars showroom. The set only uses parts from the Diner, minus the Mercedes AMG GT3 (75877) that is on the second level. This is a very ingenious way of using an existing large-scale set and changing it into something unique which I’ve been seeing more and more lately online.

LEGO Ideas Ship in a Bottle (21313) Side-by-Side Look

January 22, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

As we know by now, the LEGO Ideas Ship in a Bottle (21313) will be on store shelves on February 1. I’ve already done a comparison post showing some of the differences between Jake Sadovich’s model against the official set which he received a few days ago and pictures speak louder than words. He has posted a side-by-side look over on the AFOLs of Facebook page and we can easily see the differences between the two. Jake has even stated that the official set is “more user friendly than the original” which is reassuring for those who are on the fence about getting it.

Is a LEGO Star Wars UCS Cloud City Set Coming Soon?

January 22, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 16 Comments

Earlier today, LEGO announced that no projects passed the LEGO Ideas Second 2017 Review Stage. LEGO gave a pretty thorough explanation of some of the criteria they look at to see if a project meets that requirement. One of the criteria listed was New (and confidential) products currently being developed internally. Hasan also talked about it a little more in the video below and at 2:20, he says something that’s censored out.

If a project, let’s call it “X,” is not approved in the review because it is too similar to a product that’s been developed internally, then naturually we wouldn’t be able to share that news with everyone that “X” has not been approved due to the giant (bleep) that’s coming out.

Hasan also says the censored words again at 2:29 as the camera zooms in a little. I don’t know about you but these are major hints at something that’s coming out soon. If you look at the projects that qualified for review, one of the projects is I Am Your Father which is the scene where Darth Vader reveals to Luke Skywalker that he is his father. Now going back to the video, to me it appears that Hasan says either “Bespin City” or “Bespin set” and it has been rumored that there is a D2C set (75222) that is reported to be the UCS Cloud City. Given that the project scene is from Cloud City, I would say that it matches up nicely.

Whether or not there is a Bespin set coming … Continue

LEGO Ideas Second 2017 Review Stage Winner Announced

January 22, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

LEGO has just announced the latest winner of the LEGO Ideas Second 2017 Review Stage. There were six projects that qualified for the review and the winner is…nobody. I could be wrong but as far as I remember, this is the second time that no projects have passed a review stage with the first one being the First 2015 Review Stage. The review board takes into account various factors on whether or not a project passes including:

– Products currently available in stores
– New (and confidential) products currently being developed internally
– Licensing possibilities and conflicts
– Production capacity
– Build quality
– Feasibility
– Playability
– Expected demand
– Brand fit

You can read more about the explanations of each category in the link above. If you watch the video below of Hasan giving a brief explanation, you can see a hint of a future set that’s coming out that has been bleeped out at 2:20. If any mouth readers can tell what he said, let us know in the comments below.

The Third 2017 Review Stage is well underway and those results will be announced this summer. The projects that qualify for the review are included in the image below.

LEGO Star Wars 2018 Buildable Figure Sales on Amazon

January 21, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For even more LEGO deals from Amazon, there are some new 2018 Star Wars Buildable Figures that you may be interested in picking up. One of the more notable sets that is on sale is Boba Fett (75533). It is going for $23.99 which is 20% off the regular price. As of this writing, there are only 13 left of this set available at this price.

Darth Vader (75534) is also on sale with it going for $31.99. It is still a little expensive for what you get, even at 20% off, but it’s better than the regular price of $39.99.

Next up is the Elite Praetorian Guard (75529) which is only $20, also 20% off the normal price. You may need a few of these guys to recreate the scene from Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Finally, we have everyone’s favorite Wookiee, Chewbacca (75530). He is actually only 19% off coming in at $28.49. Again, he’s a bit more expensive but he is also a larger Buildable Figure.

LEGO Seasonal Iconic Easter 2018 (5005249) Official Image

January 21, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

Late last year, an image of the LEGO Seasonal Iconic Easter 2018 (5005249) surfaced online and now we have the official image of the set. Brickshop.nl has listed the set available starting in March but we’ll see if there is a promotion for it on Shop@Home when the March Store Calendar is available in a few weeks. The set basically consists of a minifigure with a new torso and a pair of bunny ears along with a paintbrush and an egg as accessories. Like before, the minifigure will come in a cardboard box.

For last year’s Iconic Easter (5004468) set, it was originally available for purchase at Toys R Us at the end of February and subsequently a promo at TRU. It eventually became an unannounced promotion on Shop@Home which only lasted for a few days.

I’ll let you guys know when it will become available and at what retailer as soon as there’s news about it.
