LEGO F7A Hornet Acheives 10,000 Supporters on LEGO Ideas

With a recent surge of supporters the past few days, the F7A Hornet by Nosmigon is the latest project to get the required 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The build is based on the Anvil Aerospace Hornet from the upcoming game, Star Citizen, which was originally a KickStarter project. The ship in the game is the UEE Navy’s premier fighter craft and is the front-line attack ship for combat missions.

Nosmigon has also provided the LDD file so anyone can build the F7A Hornet in case that it doesn’t get approved as an official set. The project now joins the Avengers Helicarrier and the Labyrinth Marble Maze in the third 2014 LEGO Review Stage. Congratulations to Nosmigon for the achievement!

LEGO Friends Series 5 Animals Showing Up at Toys R Us

I’ve gotten a few emails from Toys R Us employees saying that the LEGO Friends Series 5 Animals are starting to show up at their stores. They’ve been available in European countries for quite a while now but they’ve just recently made their way to the States. I assume they’ll also be available at LEGO Brand Stores and on Shop@Home as well as other retailers in the near future. I wasn’t told how much the LEGO Friends Series 5 Animals are but I believe they are $3.99 each. There’s still no word when the Series 6 Animals will be available at this time.

LEGO BIONICLE Revealing Something This Friday

LEGO BIOINICLE

LEGO BIONICLE officially made its return last Friday and there were mixed feeling about it in the community. Today, there was an announcement made on the LEGO BIONOCLE Facebook Page saying something will be revealed this Friday. There’s no clues this time of what LEGO will be revealing but my guess is that the official site, BIONICLE.com, which currently is redirecting to LEGO’s main site, will go live. What do you think LEGO will be revealing? Stay tuned this Friday to see what LEGO has in store for BIONICLE.

LEGO November 2014 Monthly Mini Build Revealed

Even thought October isn’t even here yet, the LEGO Monthly Mini Build November 2014 build has been revealed. According to the October Store Calendar, we already know that next month’s build will be a Frankenstein Monster (40104). As you can see above, November’s mini build will be a rocket on a launching pad (40105). I’m very looking forward to this build and I believe it will be really popular among kids. The mini build event will be on November 4th and as usual, they will be available on a first come, first serve basis.

Update: Just a clarification, the Monthly Mini Builds are held on the first Tuesdays of every month. The next one will be held on November 4th.

Rainbow Batman in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham - Rainbow Batman

The chums over at Brick Fanatics have found two new characters that will be in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. Amazon UK has a Rainbow Character Pack DLC to go along with their pre-orders of the game. The Rainbow Character Pack includes playable versions of Rainbow Batman and Rainbow Raider.

Rainbow Batman first appeared in Detective Comics #241 and Rainbow Raider first appeared in Flash #286. These two characters can probably be unlocked in the game as you play through it.

LEGO Batman 3 Updated on GameStop with Plastic Man Minifigure Bonus

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham - Plastic Man Exclusive Minifigure

GameStop has finally listed the Plastic Man exclusive bonus minifigure listed on their website for LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. For those who were waiting until the bonus showed up on the site, there’s no need to wait any longer.

PlayStation 3
PlayStation 4
PlayStation Vita
Xbox 360
Xbox One
Nintendo Wii U
Nintendo 3DS

I’ve been told that if you already pre-ordered before the Plastic Man was listed on the website, there should be no problem in getting it. For those who will have the game shipped to their homes, you’ll be getting it with your package.

If you’re picking up in-store, be sure to be there on launch day because the minifigures are first come, first serve. I highly suggest if you’re going to reserve LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, do it ASAP and not at the last minute so the stores get their proper allocation. Stores usually have enough quantity for the people who pre-ordered and even a couple of extras for late reserves. LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham will be available on November 11th.

LEGO Inside Tour 2015 Details Announced

Brickset has reported that LEGO has published details about next year’s LEGO Inside Tour. If you haven’t heard of the LEGO Inside Tour, it takes you on an very unique tour where you can visit Ole Kirk Christiansen’s original house, meet the LEGO designers, as well as take a look at the Billund factory. Another perk that you get from the tour is the exclusive set that is given away to attendees. This year’s set was The LEGOLAND Train (4000014).

If you’ve tried to applying for a spot on the tour before, you know that it’s extremely difficult to get in since they sell out within minutes. The LEGO Inside Tour is even harder to get in than San Diego Comic Con and I know how hard it is to get tickets to SDCC.

Registration for LEGO Inside Tour opens at 1.00 PM on Monday 3 November 2014 (Danish time)

There are four different tours that potential attendees can get in to:

5 May – 8 May
19 May – 22 May
9 June – 12 June
16 June – 19 June

The price for the tour has increased by 10% from 13,000 DKK last year to 14,500 DKK ($2500, £1500, 1900€) this year. Also, travel accommodations to Billund is NOT included so you will have to arrange that yourself.
