In our final review of the smaller LEGO Speed Champions sets, we have the Ferrari 458 Italia GT2 (75908). This particular set contains 153 pieces and retails for $14.99. To give a little background on this set, the 458 Italia GT2 is based on the Giancarlo Fisichella, Gianmaria Bruni, and Toni Vilander’s car for the AF Corse Italian racing team.
The time that many buyers have been waiting for is now here! Double VIP Points on LEGO Shop@Home is now live and will also be available at LEGO Brand Stores in the morning. This offer will be going on until March 29 so you have about two weeks and change to get your purchases in for double points. It’s pretty much equates to 10% off your total purchase. If you saw our post from earlier today, there are also some unannounced sales going on in stores only and those sets also qualify for double points.
Today my LEGO Brand Store in Fashion Valley has an unannounced sale going ahead of the start of Double VIP Points tomorrow. There are many fairly older sets that are all 20% off which last until March 27. The sales are only in stores and not on Shop@Home. I believe other LEGO Stores across the US also have similar deals.

It’s almost been a year since the LEGO The Hobbit Video Game
Gamespot today has confirmed with Warner Bros. that there will not be a DLC for the third movie. There are also no plans for a completely new game based on The Battle of Five Armies. Below is Warner Bros. full statement on the issue:
“The LEGO The Hobbit videogame gives LEGO and Middle-earth fans a fun, new way to experience the legendary adventures of Bilbo and company as told in the first two films of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy. The game provides an excellent set-up for the concluding chapter of Peter Jackson’s film, The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies. There are no plans to develop DLC based on the final film of the trilogy.”
It was stated unofficially last year at the London Toy Fair that the final part of the trilogy would come as a DLC that would need to be created. Time went by and fans have been asking when the DLC would be coming. I had no answer as there was nothing announced for it. Time when by and questions kept coming in with no response until today.
So there you have it. … Continue
Earlier this week, Apple announced the new Apple Watch which fanboys are hyping up. They want to be the dominate force in the industry with their foray into the wearable device territory and its enticing features. The only problem with it is the high prices that are included with their products which range from $350 for the base model to $17,000 for the gold model.
Why buy the Apple Watch when you can build your own LEGO version with the free guides that Chris McVeigh has provided. There are two different versions that you can build with the Icon Edition and the Text Edition. Both are very easy to create with parts that you probably already have in your collection. Be one of the first to “own” the LEGO Apple Watch before it is available next month.
For a while now, I’ve been reporting on LEGO-themed t-shirts from various companies but now you can expand your wardrobe with some new items from Elope with their Bricky Blocks. These new items includes neck and bow ties, baseball hats, and a scarf.
Currently, there are neck and bow ties available in black, blue, white, and red and are studs throughout the front of them for you to build upon. The baseball hats are also in the same colors as well and there are spots for you to build on the front and on the visor. For the scarf, you can’t build on it but it does have a cool design with 2x4s in different colors. It measures about 56-inches long by 7-inches wide.
Like many other non-official LEGO products, they are compatible with most major building blocks. The items are available for pre-order over on Entertainment Earth and are tentatively scheduled to be delivered in August.
Back in October, I said this was coming. There were doubters but there were also fans anxious to see if it was real. Today LEGO officially revealed the LEGO The Simpsons Kwik-E-Mart (71016) to the public. The set contains 2,179 pieces and will retail for $199.99. The Kwik-E-Mart will be able to open up and see all the glorious details of the convenience store including a sticker panel of Frostillicus. The Kwik-E-Mart (71016) will be available for LEGO VIP members from April 15-30 according to the April 2015 LEGO Store Calendar and to the general public on May 1st. Check out more images of the set below as well as the official press release.
