LEGO Worlds Video Game Advertisement Revealed

May 27, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

Over on Eurobricks, a user has found an advertisement for a new video game by TT Games called LEGO Worlds on the back of the instructions of the LEGO City Square (60097) set. There isn’t much to go on from the image but from what I can infer from it is that LEGO Worlds will be some sort of open world sandbox game in which the player can “explore, discover, and create.”

The image also gives a link to LEGO World’s minipage but it doesn’t work yet since the sets aren’t officially released let. I assume we’ll have more details about the game around the beginning of June.

In our third review of the LEGO City Space sub-theme sets, we have the Training Jet Transporter (60079). The set contains 448 pieces and retails for $49.99 which comes out to about a $0.11/piece ratio. The contents of the box include five numbered bags, three instruction booklets, a sticker sheet, and a loose chassis piece for the trailer.

2015 LEGO Brand Retail Manager’s Conference Exclusive Minifigure

May 25, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

One of the perks of working at LEGO Brand Stores is that if you’re in a management position, you sometimes get to conferences and you also get to bring some memorabilia back home with you. That’s what happened with someone’s friend in the AFOLs of Facebook page.

The OP’s friend was given the above packaged zombie minifigure by their manager who attended the 2015 LEGO Brand Retail Manager’s Conference. It appears that all the pieces of the zombie are official pieces minus the tattered yellow LEGO apron. I’ve seen some pretty cool stuff posted from these conferences but this zombie LEGO employee is probably the coolest one I’ve seen so far.

New LEGO Minifigure Display Case Found

May 25, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

It looks like there’s going to be a new and updated LEGO Minifigure Display Case coming in the near future. First discovered over on Brick Fanatics, this new case will feature clear doors in the front to access your minifigures from the front. Another thing that is new about these cases is that they are clear all around so you can fully see all 16 minifigures without having to take them out to look at the back like with previous cases. From the example image, it seems that there’s enough room for both the minifigures and their accessories as well. Like with the previous Minifigure Display Cases that LEGO has produced, they have studs on top that lets you stack multiple cases together.

The current LEGO Minifigure Collectors Box (852820) only allows for 15 minifigures so if you’re a collector of the LEGO Collectible Minifigure Series, there’s no way to display all of them unless you cram 2 minifigs in one compartment so this new one is a definite upgrade. Since it’s already listed over in the UK, that probably means it should be available here in the States very soon so keep your eyes peeled for it.

LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) Polybag Review

May 25, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype Polybag (30275)

As I mentioned in a previous post, Toys R Us is running a weekly promotion for a free LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) polybag with a purchase of any LEGO purchase of $30 or more. I decided to take a stroll to my local store to see if there were any other new sets available and luckily I found a new set which I’ll be reviewing later. There was also an endcap rack full of the polybags which you can also purchase individually for $3.99.

The TIE Advanced Prototype has 47 pieces and is a really simple build. There are two parts to the ship, the top and bottom part which are almost the same build with some slight differences at the last part of each side. Both sides are attached at the middle with a TECHNIC axle.

Overall, the LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) polybag is pretty bland and a somewhat boring build however it does have a similar look to the larger 75082 set. Again, it is available at Toys R Us for $3.99 each or you can get it, as of this writing, as part of their weekly promo.

LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) FREE Promo at Toys R Us

May 24, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Starting today Sunday, 5/24 until Saturday, 5/30, Toys R Us is having a FREE promo for the LEGO Star Wars TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) polybag with purchase of $30 or more on any LEGO set. There have been many people who have purchased this polybag in the past couple of weeks for $3.99 which you can probably do during the promotion period if you find a nice employee. Otherwise, the TIE Advanced Prototype (30275) polybag will most likely be available for purchase widely again next Sunday when the weekly promo is over.
