LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
A special double VIP point event is now going on this weekend at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home. You can earn double VIP points on all purchases so if you’re still doing some last minute holiday shopping, now is a good time to rake in those points.
Remember that the new The LEGO Batman Movie sets as well as the DC Super Hero Girls
are now available for purchase just in time for Christmas.
Another one of the new The LEGO Batman Movie sets that will be available in January that we’ve gotten out hands on early is the Clayface Splat Attack (70904). The set itself has 448 pieces and will retail for $34.99 which is a pretty decent price per piece ratio. The contents of the box include four numbered bags and the instructions. Will the set be another good set for The LEGO Batman Movie or just another mediocre one? Let’s check it out!
ClicTime has been a staple of producing LEGO clocks and watches and with The LEGO Batman Movie coming up, they will be continuing the trend of releasing some products for it. Amazon UK has posted listings for some LEGO Minifigure Clocks as well as Minifigure Watches for various characters in The LEGO Batman Movie.
For the Minifigure Clocks, the lineup includes Batman, Robin, Batgirl, Joker, and Harley Quinn. As for the Minifigure Watches, the characters include Batman, Robin, Batgirl, and Joker.
The LEGO Batman Movie Minifigure Clocks and Watches will be available starting on January 1 so you can pretty much find them in most retailers that sell LEGO.
A few days ago, a new theatrical poster for The LEGO Batman Movie was released. Today, the IMAX poster for the movie was also revealed. It’s nothing too spectacular as it only shows Batman, Batgirl, and Robin in a darker setting. Hopefully there will be some cool collectible glasses that you can keep. Will you be seeing the movie in standard or IMAX?
There are now official images of the upcoming promotion for the LEGO Seasonal Gingerbread Man (5005156) minifigure box. You can get it for free with purchases of $50 or more at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home from December 12-18. The box is similar to the Easter Minifigure (5004486) but decorated to his theme. The Gingerbread Man himself is not exclusive as he was released back in 2013 with Series 11 Collectible Minifigures (71002). The only difference is that this one does not have the red “Dunk Me” cup as an accessory.
For those who missed him a few years ago or got into LEGO after that set retired, next week is you best chance of getting him if you’re still doing some holiday shopping. Of course you can also BrickLink him but he commands around $10 for just the minifigure.
Continuing with my reviews of The LEGO Batman Movie sets, the next one I’ll be doing is the Scarecrow Special Delivery (70910). This set contains 204 pieces and retails for $19.99. The contents of the box include two numbered bags, the instruction booklet, and a small sticker sheet.
