The next movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be Doctor Strange coming this November but LEGO has already released a set based on the movie with the Marvel Super Heroes Doctor Strange’s Sanctum Sanctorum (76060). The set has 358 pieces and retails for $29.99 which is not a bad price for a licensed set like this. The contents of the box include three numbered bags, two instruction booklets, a sticker sheet, and a loose 8×16 tan baseplate.
Here’s what LEGO Ninjago and Nexo Knights fans have been waiting for since San Diego Comic Con 2016. The two panels from the last day of SDCC are now available to watch over on LEGO’s YouTube Channel.
For Ninjago, the videos do not show the screen or the sneak peak of the first episode of the next season of called the Day of the Departed which airs October 29. You can check out shots of the screen over on my recap post.
The same thing goes for the Nexo Knight panel but again you can check out my recap post for shots of the screen.

Over on Brickset, there’s an image of a new LEGO City 2017 set with the Fishing Boat (60147). There’s not much to go on as regards to the piece count or pricing as none were stated. I’m also not sure if this set is for a boat-related subtheme for 2017 or one of the Great Vehicles.

They are running interviews with the project creators of the First 2016 Review Stage and there you’ll have a chance to learn more about them personally and their project as well as tips on how to achieve the end goal of 10,000 supporters. From the wording of the post, after all the interviews have been done, the LEGO Ideas team will will reveal the results of which project(s) will become official LEGO Ideas sets.
Today, LEGO has posted the first interview with whatpumpkin who created the Fossil Museum. There are nine project creators to feature since there are nine projects that hit 10,000 supporters for the First 2016 Review Stage including Fossil Museum, the Gingerbread House, the Modular Train Station, the Old Fishing Store, the Jedi High Council, the Particle Accelerator, the Jurassic Park Visitor Center, Rolling BB-8, and Johnny Five.

From now until August 15 at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home, LEGO is giving out the LEGO Creator London Bus (40220) with purchases of $75 or more as part of their main promotion for the month in the US and Canada. The contents of the box include two unnumbered bags, a 2×12 black plate, the instruction booklet, and a sticker sheet.
The 118-piece build is simple as you pretty much stack bricks and plates up. As the bus is a double-decker, both levels are similar with slight differences. The lower level has a lot of windows which uses the 1×2 trans-clear bricks. Not immediately shown on the front is the fairly new 1×2/2×4 angle plate used to attach the black grill pieces and 1×1 trans-clear studs for the headlights. The back left of the bus has an opening for bus entrance and a 1×1 tile for the step. At the very back, there are some 1×1 trans-clear studs for the tail lights. To finish off the lower level, there’s a 1×2 white tile with a sticker for the license plate.
For the upper level of the London Bus, there are more of the 1×2 trans-clear bricks along with some 1×1 trans-clear bricks for the windows. The main feature here are some of the large bus advertisement stickers for the set. On the left side, the sticker features the Union Jack flag along with the Big Ben (10253) with the words, “NOW’S THE TIME TO VISIT!” On the opposite side of the London Bus, there’s … Continue
