LEGO Ideas Caterham Seven 620R (21307) Now Available at Toys R Us

September 18, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

If you want to get your hands on the recently announced LEGO Ideas Caterham Seven 620R (21307) early, you may want to check out Toys R Us. Currently, you can purchase it online at the normal retail price of $79.99 and it looks like it has ship-to-home and also in-store pickup if your store has it in stock.

The Caterham Seven will be available on October 1, if you can wait a few more weeks, where there are some pretty nice promotions that will be going on including the exclusive LEGO Advent Calendar and Double VIP Points. Thanks to David4 for the heads up. I’ll have my review of the set in the next couple of days so stay tuned for that.

Update: Looks like TRU found out it wasn’t supposed to be on sale yet and they took the page down.

New The LEGO Batman Movie 2017 Set Rumors

September 18, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

It’s been heck of a long day but it’s time to relax and do some posts on what’s been going on in the LEGO world the past half day or so. The LEGO Batman Movie forums over on Eurobricks has been pretty active with talks about some of the rumored sets that will be released in conjunction with the movie.

We already know about the two sets that were revealed during San Diego Comic Con with The Batmobile (70905) and The Joker Notorious Lowrider (70906) which are the medium-sized sets in the wave.

CM4Sci has revealed Catwoman’s Cycle (70901) which retails for $19.99 and includes minifigures of Batgirl, Robin, and Catwoman. The build includes Catwoman’s bike and a jewelry store front. It’s also mentioned that this is not the smallest set in the wave.

There’s also rumored set called The Scuttler. Some of the minifigures that are mentioned in that set include Poison Ivy with a plant monster, Batman with a jetpack, Robin, Barbara, and Commissioner Gordon in Gala outfits and a spirit. The Scuttler itself is sort of a mech shaped like a bat and walking on its limbs.

As with any rumors, take this info with some caution but they can most likely be true considering CM4sci’s track record. I’ve also reported on some other The LEGO Batman Movie rumors last month if you want to check those out as well.

LEGO Star Wars Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle (30279) Polybag Available at Target

September 17, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

I’ve received a couple of emails from readers notifying me that the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle (30279) have started showing up at various Target stores in the Halloween section and in the checkout aisles. If you remember, this particular polybag was included with GameStop pre-orders of the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Video Game. Since then as far as I know, it had a pretty limited release with it being available only at LEGOLAND parks.

Today is Batman Day and to celebrate the character’s 75 anniversary, Warner Bros. has released a new poster for The LEGO Batman Movie. The poster features Will Arnett’s Batman springing into action with some simple words of advice, “Always be yourself, unless you can be Batman.”

The LEGO Batman Movie is set for release on Feb. 10, 2017 and remember, always be Batman.

Rumored LEGO DC Super Hero Girls Set Info

September 17, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 11 Comments

Remember last year when Warner Bros. announced the new DC Super Hero Girls and LEGO would be producing some sets in conjunction with it? Well there looks to be some concrete information about the LEGO DC Super Hero Girls sets with some set numbers and possible set names courtesy of CM4sci on Eurobricks.

He mentions that each set would come with a small crystal-like villain build. The box packaging is “blue and sparkly” and is better that expected. There are six sets that will be available in February. Without me seeing what the sets are like, I’ll just quote what was mentioned in CM4Sci’s post from what he’s seen.

Batgirl’s Batjet (41230) – A small and round Batwing, it actually looks really neat. It uses the round UFO corners as the wings in a dark blue. In front is a pretty well hidden net launcher. Batgirl is in no way final but she’s sitting in the jet. There’s a small buggy for the yellow bad guy, who seems to be holding a phone?

Harley Quinn’s Cafe Rescue (41231) – Small, two floor cafe build labled ‘Capes & Cowls’ Harley Quinn is on a flying net shooter with wings? The piece usually used for net launchers is the middle. Steve (is that his name?) Is captured in a vine on the top floor. There’s a green crystal baddie included.

The High School (41232) – It looks so cool – Giant central tower that with stickers gives off the perspective that it’s growing to a sharp point.

Upcoming September 2016 LEGO Star Wars Promotions

September 16, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 19 Comments

If you missed out on the LEGO Star Wars Darth Revan (5002123) minifigure back in 2014 or the then LUG member only Escape the Space Slug set earlier this year, there are some promotions that LEGO will be running for you to be able to get them, at least for guaranteed one of them.

First is the Darth Revan minifigure that will be given away with any LEGO Star Wars purchase at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home on September 30, 2016, while supplies last. Doesn’t look like there’s any other stipulations on it so that’s good. Plus, Force Friday 2016 for the Star Wars: Rogue One sets will be available so it’s pretty easy to get Darth Revan if you plan on purchasing something. Be sure you make your purchases then since this promo is only valid for that day.

For the Escape the Space Slug set, you have to be a LEGO VIP member and purchase the UCS Death Star (75159) during the VIP early access timeframe which is September 15-30, 2016. After you do that, you’ll be automatically be entered to win one of the limited edition sets. There’s a limit of one Death Star purchase with a particular VIP number so you can’t have multiple entries.

Update: I’ve been notified that over on the sweepstakes page, you can also enter without making a purchase.

1) Send us an email at the address below, with the following information:

• Write “LEGO Star Wars™ Escape the Space Slug™ Sweepstakes” in the subject line
