LEGO Ideas First 2014 LEGO Review Results Announced

November 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

LEGO has just announced the latest LEGO Ideas projects to become official sets. There were six projects qualified for the review and after very long consideration, the LEGO Bird Project by DeTomaso will become LEGO Ideas #009.

But wait, that’s not it! The Big Bang Theory by Alatariel and GlenBricker based on the hit TV series will also become LEGO Ideas set #010. Ellen Kooijman, aka Alatariel, also becomes the first person to have two LEGO Ideas projects become official sets with the first one being the wildly popular Research Institute (21110).

LEGO is still working on the details for the final product design, pricing, and availability are still being worked out. They are still evaluating the two Doctor Who projects so there’s still may be a chance that one of the two may become an official LEGO set as well.

The second 2014 LEGO Review stage is already underway and those result should be coming in late January 2015.

More Details About LEGO Marvel GotG Rocket Raccoon (5002145) Polybag

November 5, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 12 Comments

There are some new details regarding the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Guardians of the Galaxy Rocket Raccoon (5002145) polybag via Mr. Elijah Timms on Eurobricks. The polybag is a Toys R Us exclusive and he mentions that they won’t be available until November 16th and will be sold for $4.99 each. Before it was speculated that it would go with the Guardians of the Galaxy Blu-Ray.

Most likely the shipping box that it came in probably said “Hold until November 16” with the value being at $4.99 each and the employees didn’t know what promo it was with. I’ll try to get more details later this week to see if the Rocket Raccoon will be sold as a stand-alone polybag or packaged with a future promotion.

Update: Jason from The Brick Show has confirmed that the Rocket Raccoon will be a stand-alone polybag at $4.99 each but they won’t be available for purchase until the “strict” 11/16 street date. Below is a picture of the bin they were in while the LEGO rep was putting them out.
