Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

February 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

The Disney Princess Frozen: Elsa’s Ice Palace by Fohzen is the latest project to hit 10,000 on LEGO Ideas. This project was inspired by the movie and was submitted before the official LEGO Disney Princess Elsa’s Sparkling Ice Castle (41062) was released late last year. This version of the castle is made with more translucent bricks to give it a more natural ice look to it.

Elsa’s Ice Palace will be joining The Discworld, Science Adventures, and the Medieval Market Street as qualifiers for the First 2015 Review Stage. Although the project was created before the official set was released, it has a small chance of passing due to LEGO having an active license with Disney and they even stated in the comments, “a project based on an existing LEGO license has a smaller chance of passing the LEGO Review than other projects.” Many fans of the project would like to see this set be produced but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

New Target Inventory Tracker Tool by BrickPicker

February 16, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

Our friends over at BrickPicker has been expanding recently and they’ve developed a Target Inventory Tracker tool. The main thing that I’ve noticed and appreciate is the DPCI search option on the right side. Once you click the link, you get a little popup which allows you to search for items. Just put in what you’re searching for and once the results come up, you get a list along with the DPCI numbers that you can click which automatically fills the search box so you don’t even have to copy and paste it.

When the results are shown, you get to see which stores have the item in stock with a 100 mile radius as well as geo-location pins to see which store are closest to you. There is also information about the store like address, phone number, hours, as well a store layout so you can know exactly where the toy section is at for each store. If there is inventory at a store, you have the option to purchase it right then which takes you to Target’s product page. Some items are eligible for Store Pickup but some aren’t so you have to double check that.

Overall, the Target Inventory Status tool is pretty neat and can be pretty helpful if you’re searching for a particular item. You don’t even have to be a member of BrickPicker to use the free tool so it’s worth checking out and bookmarking it.

Note: Before I get comments saying that Brickseek has a similar tool, I’ve also … Continue

LEGO Wins Three Awards at 2015 New York Toy Fair

February 15, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For some day 2 news from the 2015 New York Toy Fair, there were 13 different Toy Fair awards announced this morning and LEGO has won three of them. Thanks to Chad for sending us the news and you can check out the video below.

First is the Preschool Toy of the Year going to the LEGO Juniors Knights’ Castle (10676). This set was recognized for an outstanding toy developed for pre-schoolers ages 3-5.

The e-Connected Toy of the Year went to the LEGO Fusion Town Master (21204). This award was for an app-cessory or physical toy that interacts with a smartphone, tablet, or gaming device.

Finally for the Educational Toy of the Year, the LEGO TECHNIC Cargo Plane (42025) snagged that one. This award was for a toy that helps children develop special skills and knowledge through play. I believe any LEGO set could have won this award since they all fit the requirements.

February 14, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

As you’ve heard by now, the 2015 New York Toy Fair is going on right now as we speak. Earlier today, we did a post collecting a lot of the photos from members of the LEGO community who were able to go to the event. Our friend Chad from Brick Builders Club and Brick Fest Live was also able to attend the event and he has sent us a lot more images of the sets from his perspective. I’ve tried to organize the sets according to the different themes that were displayed. There were some themes that were missing but you can check out those images on our previous post. Since there will be around 200 images, I have to make them a little smaller so the page doesn’t take forever to load but you can still click on them to see the full image.
