LEGO Star Wars UCS Death Star (75159) Officially Announced

August 31, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

LEGO has finally announced the next LEGO Star Wars Ultimate Collector’s Series set with the updated Death Star (75159). It hasn’t been much of a secret the past couple of weeks but there are now official details of the set. It will have 4,016 pieces and retails for $499.99 which is 213 pieces and $100 more than the recently retired 10188 version.

Although there are many, many fans that aren’t impressed with it, the main appeal is to those who weren’t able to get the previous version or for new LEGO fans who has just started collecting LEGO Star Wars sets. I do understand the animosity against the new set when it was first “revealed” because there are very minor updates to it but at a higher price point. For those individuals, that means you can save your money and use it on other LEGO sets that interest you more.

One thing to note in the press release notes was that the UCS Death Star (75159) is not an indication of any future re-release or set updates.

75159 Death Star™
Ages 14+. 4,016 pieces.
US $499.99 – CA $599.99 – DE 499.99€ – UK £399.99 – DK 4499.00 DKK
*Euro pricing varies by country. Please visit shop.LEGO.com for regional pricing.

A short while ago, Entertainment Earth “revealed” one of the three LEGO Star Wars: Rogue One Buildable Figures for Sergeant Jyn Erso (75119). Again, this isn’t really anything except for the people who weren’t able to see it before a few months ago. Jyn Erso will contain 104 pieces and will retail for $24.99.

There will be two other Buildable Figures in the wave which we hopefully will be able to see again soon with K-2SO (75120) and the Imperial Death Trooper (75121).

We already knew details about the sets a few months back but there were embargo issues even though it was from a legit source, blah, blah. The LEGO Star Wars: Rogue One sets will be available starting on Force Friday, September 30.

LEGO Mixels Ending After 2016?

August 30, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

If you’re a LEGO Mixels fan, there may be some bad news about the theme. It was reported yesterday by Brickset that the fairly popular theme may be coming to an end after this year. There are some clues into this theory when the show’s producer on Cartoon Network, Jordan Reicheck stated that the last episode will premiere in September.

We already know there will be another wave of LEGO Mixels coming this October with Series 9 but there hasn’t been any information about any future waves and the rumored 2017 set list made no mention of them.

Of course, nothing is really set in stone as the show ending may not mean that the LEGO theme itself is ending. If you enjoyed the theme whether it be the weird characters or because they’re great parts packs, LEGO Mixels did have a good three year run. As people always say, hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
