August 30, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

There’s some interesting news coming out of the Brickset Forums today. A member by the name of Paperballpark has posted that he has reliable information about the new LEGO Creator Modular set. They said that it would be a Detective Agency which is a very interesting addition to the modular sub-theme. It would retail for £132.99 and will be available on January 1st, 2015.

This rumor has been floating around various LEGO forums for a few months now but this is the first time that someone has concrete information about the Detective Agency. It’ll be very interesting to see how LEGO has pulled this off. If this rumor is true, how excited are you for this new modular building?

August 30, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Ript Apparel has a really cool LEGO t-shirt offering today which features the Classic Space logo combined with Batman’s Batwing. Another cool thing with the shirt is that it has a glow-in-the-dark ink so you can show off the shirt at night as well. The shirt starts at $10 and is on sale for 24 hours, which has about 20 hours left as of this writing. You usually don’t see shirts with glow-in-the-dark in at this price so this is a pretty good deal.

BZPower has reported at New York Comic Con 2014, LEGO will be having a panel and they’ve asked people to “take part in a very special event where a brand new LEGO Theme will be announced.” A brand new LEGO theme? There are a few possible ideas what they could be with all the recent LEGO 2015 news. The first possibility is the new LEGO Jurassic World sets that will be based on the upcoming movie starring Chris Pratt. According to reports, there would be five sets in the wave.

The next possible theme that LEGO could be revealing at NYCC is the “Elves” theme which was reported to be a fantasy-typed theme that would include mini-dolls.

The third LEGO theme that could be revealed is LEGO Top Gear. Last year the people at Top Gear asked people to do a survey to guage the audience if they wanted to see vehicles from the popular TV show in LEGO form. It was recently revealed that a list of Supercars would be coming out next year and it may indeed be the Top Gear theme.

Finally, we have a return of an old theme but could be new to people that have just gotten into LEGO and that is BIONICLE. The theme hasn’t been around since 2010 but it was very popular among kids and AFOLs when it was.

So there you have it. LEGO will be announcing a new theme at New York Comic Con 2014 and those were some of the possibilities. What … Continue

If you’re a fan of LEGO, you’ve probably heard of the names of these people including Bruce Lowell, Iain Heath, and Nathan Sawaya, just to name a few.

It looks like a there will be a number of products that will be available on BrickStuds.com including the folowing:

STUDS Packs: Each STUDS Pack includes 8 trading cards and 1 Brickforge element. Look for rare chase cards including: Artist Autograph Cards, Custom Fig Cards, and Sketch Cards!
