LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
It’s been pretty slow LEGO news-wise but there are now new details on the summer 2016 wave of LEGO BIONICLE sets. From what I see, there will be at least 5 sets in the wave which you can see the list below. They’ll be available in August so we should probably see them at the upcoming toys fairs in a few weeks.
Ekimu the Mask Maker (71312)
Lava Beast (71313)
Storm Beast (71314)
Quake Beast (71315)
Umarak the Destroyer (71316)
If you’ve been waiting for the Series 15 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71011) to be released on February 1st, you may want to check out Target stores. I’ve gotten a few messages from readers who have found them in stores and are able to purchase them without being blocked at the registers while paying for them. YMMV on that but it’s worth checking out. Of course if you’re in other parts of the world, they’ve already been released in the beginning of the year.

Next up is the DC Comics Team Pack (71229) which includes the Joker and Harley Quinn, the Joker’s Chopper, and the Quinn-mobile.

I’ve been holding off on this particular post until there were better images and it looks like there are some from Just2Good. There are now some higher quality images of the upcoming LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Captain America: Civil War sets. We first saw these sets in December when they were first revealed in the LEGO Catalogs but there are now some larger and sharper quality box art and product images from J2G including some exclusive ones. There will be a spoiler but if you saw the previous post, then you would already know what that is.
The first set is called Black Panther Pursuit (76047) and it contains287 pieces and it includes minifigures of the Winter Soldier, Captain America, and Black Panther. The set includes Black Panther’s jet, Captain America’s 4×4, and the Winter Soldier on a motorcycle.
Next up is Crossbones’ Hazard Heist (76050) consisting of 179 pieces and has minifigures of Falcon, Black Widow, and Crossbones. Widow is riding the newer style of motorcycle while Crossbones rides different styled 4×4.
Finally we have the Super Hero Airport Battle (76051). This 807 piece set includes Giant-Man, a microfigure Ant-Man, Agent 13, Scarlet Witch, Winter Soldier, Captain America, War Machine, and Iron Man in his Bleeding Edge armor. The set itself includes another Quinjet, the airport traffic control tower, and a luggage cart.
There will also be another Civil War set coming out later in the summer but there’s no details on what that set is or which characters it’ll include.
Earlier today, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment announced some DLC packs for the LEGO Marvel’s Avengers Video Game that will be FREE exclusives to the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4. The first one is the Captain America: Civil War Character Pack which will include notable characters in their respective outfits for the film. The other free DLC pack is the Ant-Man Character & Level Pack which lets you play through the events of the movie.
LEGO Marvel’s Avengers will be available in two weeks and there are different promotions from various retailers. Gamestop will have the Silver Centurion Iron Man minifigure while over on Amazon, you can save 20% off the list price if you are a Prime member.

The Gingerbread House by Swan Dutchman is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas.
