2015 First Quarter LEGO Store Build-A-Minifigure Bar Elements

January 22, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

I recently featured the new 2015 first quarter LEGO Store Pick-A-Brick Wall elements and while I was there, I also had a chance to take a look at some of the new stuff on the Build-A-Minifigure bar. There were so many things I haven’t seen there so some of them might have been available before but I didn’t notice them. Note the above image is from the previous quarter because I forgot to take a picture of it with the new stuff. Again, most of these elements will be available at different locations but some stores may not have the same ones.

For the heads, the one that stood out the most for me is the queasy guy’s head from the LEGO Creator Fairground Mixer (10244). The set was released just last year and I was surprised to see that head available already. Another head that stood out was the Overlord’s from the LEGO Ninjago Battle for Ninjago City (70728). It might not fit in with many things but it’s cool for some themed MOCs. The rest are some general ones that you can use in many situations.

On the hair and headpieces, we have the Series 10 Sad Clown hat, the hair and headphone piece from the Series 8 DJ, the spiky Series 6 Sleepyhead hair, and the Series 3 Hula Dancer hair with flower printing.

For the torsos, I only found three that were new. The first torso is from the red, white, and blue one windsurfer one which was most recently … Continue

The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Pre-Order at Target (Includes Exclusive LEGO Minifigures)

January 21, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

As we guessed earlier this month, the LEGO The Hobbit Bain variant minifigure that was found will be included in the Target Exclusive Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital HD combo pack. Not only do you get that minifigure, you also get the not-very-exclusive Bard the Bowman minifigure that was previously from San Diego Comic Con 2014 and is now in the The Battle of Five Armies (79017) set.

You can now pre-order The Hobbit: BOFA Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital HD on Target’s website for $26.99. These type of movie promo sets usually sell out pretty quickly so get your orders in if you want to guarantee yourself a copy. There’s no release date yet on the movie but I believe it’ll be sometime this spring.
