LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: Build Your Own Adventure Includes John Stewart Green Lantern

April 12, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

A few months ago, I reported that there will be a new John Stewart Green Lantern minifigure but was not sure what it will be included in. It looks like there’s confirmation that it will be the exclusive minifigure in the upcoming DK LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes: Build Your Own Adventure book. This was first found over at BricksFans but it looks like they’ve taken down the post.

This will be the third Green Lantern to become an official LEGO minifigure with the first one being Hal Jordan as a 2012 SDCC exclusive and the other in the Green Lantern vs. Sinestro (76025).

You can now pre-order the book on Amazon and it has a tentative release date of August 1 for the release.

April 10, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

There is now an official image of the box art for the upcoming LEGO Speed Champions McLaren 720S (75880) coming out of Carscoops. We’ve already seen the product images last month which shows that instead of the drivers we’re used to getting, we’re actually getting a designer and his desk with a drawing board. There’s no word on piece count or pricing but I assume it’ll be at $14.99 like the other single car sets.

New Chinese Brick Company Producing AFOL Sets

April 9, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 34 Comments

Here’s something that has popped up on my feed and also readers emailing in about it but I questioned whether I should post about it or not. You may have heard of a few well-known builders in the LEGO community like The Arvo Brothers, Firas Abu-Jaber, Paul Boratko (CrowKillers), and Bangoo H, many of which have been featured on The Brothers Brick and other LEGO sites. Their LEGO builds are an envy of many builders who have tried to replicate themselves or take inspiration from.

The 29th Guangzhou Toy & Hobby Fair kicked off yesterday and there’s a Chinese “new” brick company who has appeared to be making sets based on the designs of some of the builders I’ve named above. In a post on Facebook, there are images of a company called Xingbao (星堡) who is owned by Meizi Model (美致模型), which is the same company that owns LEPIN, at the convention displaying some of the sets based off of the AFOL designs including The Arvo Brother’s Kaneda’s Bike and Alien, Bangoo H’s Laputa: Castle in the Sky music box, Fira’s Volkswagen Beetle, Ford GT, and Rolls Royce Springfield Roadster, and Paul’s Balisong supercar, just to name a few. It also appears that some of the designers have confirmed to have licensed their models out to the company.

This new company is essentially helping AFOLs who want their models become easier to obtain by their followers who do not have time to BrickLink the parts or whatnot. This whole thing … Continue
