June 28, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

San Diego Comic Con 2016 is only a short few weeks away and everyone’s been patiently waiting for LEGO do some reveals of their own. Earlier today, LEGO revealed one of the many brick-built statues that will be displayed at the convention which is LEGO Ninjago’s Jay in his new outfit from the current wave of LEGO Ninjago sets. It was stated that it took builders 345 hours to create the 64,148 piece statue.

I will be at SDCC 2016 all five days to report on anything LEGO related. There’s nothing available yet on the program schedule as it is still a little too early but stay tuned.

June 25, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO will be releasing another retro-type set that pays homage to some of the original LEGO themes and for this year, it will be the Classic Knights (5004419) set. There are now official images of the set from Brick Merge which shows some closer details of the Classic Knights set.

Like with the 2014 Classic Spaceman Minifigure (5002812) and the 2015 Classic Pirates Minifigure (5003082) sets, the Classic Knights (5004419) set will contain a minifigure from a particular theme and in this case, a Crusader Knight from the LEGO Castle theme. The build itself is a small ballista that is very similar to the 1986 Siege Cart (6012) but with updated parts. There’s also a small booklet showing off some of the various knights that LEGO has released throughout the years.

The Classic Knights (5004419) set will be available starting June 30-July 10 with purchases of $50 or more at LEGO Brand Stores and on SHop@Home.

June 25, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Just revealed over on HelloBricks is a new exclusive LEGO Ninjago Cole (5004393) in his stone armor. The packaging is similar to the LEGO Nexo Knights Royal Guard (5004390) promotional minifigure that will be given out next month with the LEGO 2016 Wall Calendar voucher. It’s a small box that opens up in the middle to reveal the minifigure. It’s cool that this type of packaging isn’t an one-off thing for the Royal Guard. As far as how to get the Cole (5004393) minifigure, that is unsure at this time but I’ll definitely let you know when details are available.
