New LEGO City Space Polybag (30315) Revealed by The Brick Show

May 12, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

The Brick Show has revealed a new LEGO City polybag that we haven’t really reported on yet. It was sent to them directly from LEGO for review but nobody really knows the name of it yet. All the information that is available is that it is set 30315 and is part of the Space subtheme that will be coming out this summer. As far as information that I know, there will be a promo in August for a “City Space Car” so I’m going assume that it is talking about that one.

The 30315 polybag consists of an astronaut minifigure riding some sort of rover-type vehicle with a rotating satellite. Check out Stephen’s review on the new LEGO City Space polybag below.

Philly Brick Fest 2015 Steel City LUG Showcase

May 12, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Continuing with my coverage of Philly Brick Fest 2015 from a few weeks ago, I’ve been showing some of the LUGs that attended the event and displayed their LEGO MOCs with TubeLUG and PennLUG. Today, I have another showcase featuring another Pennsylvania LUG called Steel City LUG.

Steel City LUG is mainly located in Pittsburgh, hence the name “Steel City,” and they made the 5+ hour trip to Philly to represent their LUG. Like last year, they were well represented and even a few members won a couple of Rocky’s for their MOCs, including one special one called “The Lord of Games” which went to Dan Walker. Check out all the cool stuff they had displayed below.

Real Life LEGO Double-Decker Couch for Super Fans

May 11, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

If you watch the AWE me channel, there’s a show called Super Fan Builds where Hollywood’s top prop makers build one-of-a-kind items for super fans of pop culture. In their most recent episode, they’ve created Emmet’s double-decker couch from The LEGO Movie for Paul and Haley Hollingsworth (digitalwizardz). If those names sound familiar, I featured their LEGO Jurassic Park stop-motion video a few months ago. Very cool item for a great family of builders!

LEGO Dimensions Confirms Portal 2 and Doctor Who Level Packs

May 10, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

Many of you may have saw this on Brickset while I at work but apparently LEGO has decided to publish the instructions (now removed) for the LEGO Dimensions Back to the Future Level Pack (71201) which confirms the LEGO Portal 2 and LEGO Doctor Who themes for the upcoming toys-to-life game. Other themes that have been newly revealed for LEGO Dimensions include Scooby-Doo Team Pack (71206) and The Simpsons Level Pack (71202) which we already could tell from the blurry image we saw last month as well as Jurassic World Team Pack (71205).

LEGO Dimensions The Simpsons Level Pack (71202)

The Portal 2 Level Pack (71203) includes a Chell minifigure, a Weighted Companion Cube, and Sentry Turrent. The Doctor Who Level Pack (71204) includes Peter Capaldi’s Doctor, the TARDIS, and K-9. Also in the Doctor Who instructions (now removed), the licensing page mentions Dalek and Cyberman so could we possibly be seeing them in future packs?

For the Jurassic World Team Pack (71205), we have the Owen and ACU Trooper minifigures, a brick-built Velociraptor, and what appears to be the gyrosphere. Surprisingly, the Owen minifigure will be the second set for the character considering that he’s the main character in Jurassic World and he’s only in the Raptor Rampage (75917) set. For the Scooby-Doo Team Pack (71206), we have the Scooby and Shaggy minifigures, the Mystery Machine, and a pile of food.

If you’re just wanting some of the new characters like Chell and the Doctor and was wondering if the minifigures come off the bases for your enjoyment, rest assured that they … Continue

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Electro Minifigure Polybag (5002125) Promo at Toys R Us

May 10, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

As I reported earlier in the month, the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Electro Minifigure Polybag (5002125) was available at various Toys R Us stores for $3.99 each. Unfortuantly for some like mine, the stores wouldn’t sell them because they were on hold for a promotion which starts today and ends on Saturday, May 16. For this promo, you can get the Electro polybag with any LEGO purchase of $30 or more. It’s nice if you still have some sets to purchase like the new LEGO Jurassic World sets but hopefully they’re still selling them individually while the promo is running. I’ll check in the morning to see if this is the case or not.

Philly Brick Fest 2015 PennLug Showcase

May 9, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

I’m back with another LUG showcase from Philly Brick Fest featuring one of the most well-known LUGs in Pennsylvania with PennLUG. Known for their massive train and town layouts, it was nothing short of spectacular of what was shown off at PBF. To see it go from an empty space to what was there in about a day and half of set up was very cool to see. There were other builds that weren’t part of the train/town layout that were equally awesome which I have separated down below.
