LEGO Classic Knights (5004419) June/July Promotion

May 21, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

You’ve probably seen a glimpse of this set on the LEGO July 2016 Store Calendar but from June 30 to July 10, VIPs can get a Free exclusive LEGO Classic Knights (5004419) set with purchases of $50 or more. LEGO is continuing the traditional classic sets which pays homage to some of the original themes from LEGO. The sets first started in 2014 with the Classic Spaceman Minifigure (5002812) and last year with Classic Pirates Minifigure (5003082).

The set has 47 pieces and the box will again be the white one that’s been used before but with updated printing with this year’s theme. With three different classic themes that have been released or will be releasing with the Knights, there aren’t that much “Classic” themes to choose from. If these types of sets continue next year, I have a feeling it might be for LEGO Town.

New LEGO Home Furnishing Items Found at LEGOLAND Billund

May 21, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

The talk of the town the past couple of days or so are some new LEGO home furnishing items that have been found over at LEGOLAND Billund by Andres over a Zusammengebaut.com . For some of these items, fans have made their own custom ones but it’s nice to see some official LEGO products as well. Hopefully we’ll see these items available at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home in the near future.

Update: I have found out from my friend John who was at LEGOLAND California and the items are now available for purchase. Both the Minifigure Frame and the Keychain Rack are $16.99 each.

The first is a 46 piece LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Minifigure Frame which is able to hold up to 15 super hero minifigures. There’s no word yet on whether a DC version will be released as well.

The second is an official LEGO Keychain Rack which consists of 32 pieces.

Finally, there is a new LEGO Minifigure Cake Mold. There has been a Minifigure Cake Mold released before back in 2009 with item 852708 but that was a red version.

Bricks Issue 12 Press Release

May 20, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The guys over at Bricks Magazine is celebrating their first year and they have sent over a press release of the latest issue.

THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
Celebrate the Bricks Birthday as we turn one with the release of issue 12.

Join us in a retrospective look at our first year and relive the incredible adventure that has been 12 months in Bricks. This journey of ours leads perfectly into this month’s topic – quest. A quest can be described as an adventurous expedition with an end goal – much like a LEGO build.

The questing fun starts in Elevendale, where Miku the dragon takes us on his hunt for the lost dragon with Emily Jones and the elves. These sets have produced some lovely pieces and enchanting builds; it is a world you won’t want to miss. As the story closes on a cliffhanger Bricks ventures over to Eurobricks to examine their long-running LEGO fantasy role-playing game, Guilds of Historica; a fictional world of territories building custom creations to earn points for their chosen factions.

There’s plenty of building to take part in as we take a stab at recreating Jason Allemann’s working trebuchet, build a medieval crane using the book Build Your Own LEGO Knights Realm. James Pegrum gets into the spirit of our theme as he recreates Bilbo’s banquet, showing us ways to make trees and authentic Hobbit furniture. There is insight from Timothy Jones as he explains how he created a giant blue sea serpent and Claus-Marc Hahn reveals how his incredible tower

LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253) Officially Announced

May 19, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

LEGO has officially announced the next direct-to-consumer set with the next landmark-type set with the LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253). Some of you may already saw this leaked out yesterday ahead of the embargo which was very disappointing for those who decided to follow the rules.

Anyways, Big Ben consists of 4,163 pieces and will retail for $249.99 which is a heck of a deal considering how many pieces it has compared to the price. Big Ben will become the 5th largest set that LEGO has produced and the second set this year to make that list with the Ghostbusters Firehouse (75827) being released earlier this year. It is on scale with the Tower Bridge (10214) so if you have that set, you can display it next to each other.

LEGO VIPs will have early access to the set starting on June 15 and to the general public on July 1. Check out the press release and more high-quality images below.
