LEGO Ninjago Dareth vs. Nindroid Polybag (5002144) Review

Recently there have been many Toys R Us exclusive polybags showing up at Toys R Us and the latest one we’ll be reviewing is the LEGO Ninjago Dareth vs. Nindroid (5002144). We first saw this polybag way back in September when it showed up at TRU UK.

The main draw of the polybag is the Dareth “Brown Ninja” minifigure that is included. He is in his brown gi which also has printing of his star chain necklace. The back of the torso has a gold star printing. His legs are also the same brown color with some gold printing. He also has the cool brown swept back hair. His accessory is one of his fake trophies that he used to boast his ego in the TV series.

The other minifigure in the set is one of the Nindroid Warrior minifigures. There’s nothing too special about the Nindroid as it has the same printing thoughout the 2014 wave. Its accessory is a sai.

Overall although the 5002144 polybag doesn’t have much substance, it is currently the only way to get the Dareth Brown Ninja minifigure which is nice since you don’t have to purchase a set to get him. Dareth vs. Nindroid is currently available for $4.99 at Toys R Us stores as well as on their website with free shipping for a limited time.

LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin Video Game Announced

LEGO Ninjago Shadow of Ronin

To celebrate International Ninja Day, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, TT Games, and LEGO has announced their latest game for the PlayStation Vita and Nintendo 3DS, LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin which will be released in Spring 2015.

“LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin will be the most expansive adventure game through the Ninjago universe that we have ever made to-date,” said Tom Stone, Managing Director, TT Games. “Kids will get a kick out of playing as their favorite Ninja warriors battling a new enemy with an exciting array of cool vehicles, mechs and even dragons!”

There is a new threat in Ninjago, and his name is Ronin. With help from his army of dark samurai, Ronin steals the Ninjas’ memories using an ancient weapon called the Obsidian Glaive. The Ninjas forget how to use their elemental powers, and it is up to the players to help them find their Obsidian weapons, regain their memories and reclaim their powers before Ronin completes his plan and releases an even greater evil on Ninjago.

In LEGO Ninjago: Shadow of Ronin players will battle through iconic locales from the TV series, including the Ice Temple, the Toxic Bogs, and a mysterious new island, as well as visit the mountain village of Spinjago, where the Ninjas are currently training with Grand Sensei Dareth and Sensei Wu. Using their Spinjitzu abilities, players can unleash their Ninja’s elemental power to smash their way through enemies and solve puzzles. They can even team up and create multi-elemental builds using the Tornado of Creation.

Jurassic Park Achieves 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

The Jurassic Park project by Senteosan is the latest one to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. This comes only 43 days after Jurassic Park/Jurassic World projects were allowed again on LEGO Ideas when LEGO resolved their licensing conflicts back in October. If you remember, this same project was taken down in September 2013 because another construction toy company had the license for the IP. By getting 10,000 supporters in a very short amount of time, it shows that people do want to see this project as an official LEGO set. As we know by now, LEGO will be releasing Jurassic World sets around May 2015 so we’ll see if Senteosan’s project will be able to pass the review stage.

As my favorite movie of all-time, this Jurassic Park project had my complete support from the beginning. The set recreates the iconic scene at the Jurassic Park gate when Alan Grant, Ellie Sadler, and Ian Malcolm took the tour ride in the very familiar Ford Explorer. It also includes the Tyrannosaurus Rex that wrecks havoc to one of the Explorer Tour Vehicles when the power went out at the park. The minifigures that are included are the Alan, Ellie, and Ian in their movie accurate outfits.

Jurassic Park now joins a packed lineup in the Third 2014 Review Stage which includes the Avengers Helicarrier, the Labyrinth Marble Maze, the F7A, The Goonies 30th Anniversary Inferno, The Natural History Museum, and Lord of the Rings Set: Minas Tirith. Although there … Continue

LEGO Legends of Chima Vultrix's Sky Scavenger (70228)

Ghostmind on Eurobricks has found a fourth retailer exclusive 2015 LEGO Legends of Chima set, Vultrix’s Sky Scavenger (70228), which was found on a product listing on Toys R Us Japan. The set does include a new exclusive Vultrix minifigure while the Vardy and Frax has been seen in previous sets. There are 480 pieces to the set and is priced at 4,499 yen which is about $38 here. I would guess the set will retail between $39.99 to $49.99, most likely on the higher end. Legneds of Chima seems to be continuing strong in 2015 with a lot more Fire vs. Ice sets as well as some new Tribe Battle Packs to grow your army.
