Warner Bros. Announce Upcoming LEGO Movie Release Dates

October 16, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

In a shareholder meeting yesterday, Warner Bros. presented details of upcoming LEGO movies and gave tentative release dates for the next three films. With the huge success of The LEGO Movie earlier this year, Warner Bros. is hoping these films will have the same success as well.

As we reported a few months ago, the LEGO Ninjago movie is already scheduled for September 23, 2016. Charlie Bean will be directing the film while Dan and Kevin Hageman will be writing the script.

The recently announced LEGO Batman spinoff, voiced by Will Arnett, will take place on February 10, 2017 which takes the spot that was previously for The LEGO Movie 2. Chris McKay will be directing and Seth Grahame-Smith will be writing the story. Roy Lee, Dan Lin, Phil Lord, and Christopher Miller will be producing.

There were also two more LEGO films slated for Memorial Day weekend in 2018 and 2019. The LEGO Movie 2 will most likely take the May 25, 2018 release date which was also reported back in August. At the same time, there was an untitled LEGO Movie scheduled for May 24, 2019 which could be anything at this point, whether it be LEGO Ninjago or LEGO Batman sequels or even The LEGO Movie 3.

There’s no doubt that there will be official sets that will be released in conjunction with all these movies. Stay tuned as we will be reporting more details about the upcoming LEGO movies as they become available.

Chris Miller Celebrates LEGO Batman Movie Announcement

October 15, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

With the announcement of the spinoff LEGO Batman movie, producer Christopher Miller celebrated today and tweeted out the image above which looks very familiar to Batman fans. The image shows a Batman minifigure in a pose that next to the Batmobile from The LEGO Movie which is similar to Ben Affleck’s pose for Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice. Wouldn’t it be cool if the Batmobile could be an official set when the LEGO Batman movie comes out in 2017?

I can now officially de-un-tweet this: It's true. So excited. #Darkness #NoParents pic.twitter.com/4x2PWDm7AI

LEGO Super Heroes Bat-Signal Building Event at Toys R Us This Saturday

October 15, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Toys R Us Bat-Signal

As were one of the first sites to report this last month, Toys R Us stores will be having another building event this weekend and it is for a LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Bat Signal. This is a reminder that if you’re planning to attend this Saturday, October 18 from 12-2pm, get there early because I believe this building event will be more popular than last week’s build of the LEGO Star Wars Rebels Micro Ghost.

One of the cool things about the build is the Batman logo radar dish. It is pretty rare since it’s only in one set, The Batcave (6860).

“Event intended for children ages 5-up. Parental supervision required at all times. All giveaways and event materials available while supplies last and distributed to participating children only. Limit 1 per child. Quantities limited; no rain checks. All participating Toys “R” Us US locations.”

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 12 (71007) Review

October 14, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

It’s been a while since I got these but I finally have some time to do a review for the Series 12 of the LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71007). The packaging for this series goes back to a bright yellow for this release which is very similar to what Series 1 had. Each minifigure costs $3.99 each and there are 16 different minifigures to collect.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 12 (71007)

Unlike any other Collectible Minifigure series, Series 12 is the first of what could be subsequent series that collaborates with the LEGO Minifigures Online MMO video game. On the back of the promotional poster, there is a code that you can enter to unlock the corresponding minifigure in the game.

Wizard

The first minifigure in Series 12 is the Wizard. He seems to be a Wizard that specializes in astronomy considering that the whole minifigure is filled with a design that is covered with stars and moons. According to LEGO’s website, the blue robe that he wears is call the Robes of Many Pockets. His staff is made up of three components: a rod, a telescope, and a blue gem. The cloak is two separate pieces which uses the new type of fabric that’s been introduced in recent sets. The wizard hat is a new element with a slight curve at the tip.

How to feel for the Wizard: Feel for the large dress/robe leg piece as well as the curved tip on the wizard hat. He comes 4 in a box.
