Just2Good over on Eurobricks has spotted some more rumors of LEGO City 2015 sets from Russian site Exoforce.ru. In this loosely translated post, they mention of some Construction based sets as well as a couple of the Great Vehicles. The Construction subtheme was last seen in 2009 although there were the Mining sets from 2012 which also had a couple of construction vehicles. This list in addition to the LEGO City Police sets that we reported on yesterday. Again, these are rumors but the source has been reliable in the past.

Brick-A-Pic Project Needs Your Help on KickStarter

July 14, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

I was contacted by Jake from Brick-A-Pic who is spearheading his LEGO KickStarter project. Brick-A-Pic is a website that converts your photos, logos, and other images into LEGO mosaics.

LEGO mosaics are a popular form of artwork in the LEGO community and Brick-A-Pic makes that process of creating one a little easier. They currently have a software that you can demo to give you an idea of how Brick-A-Pic works. One cool thing about the project is that, they also provide you physical LEGO bricks along with the plans and instructions.

Check out the video below for more details and test out the demo on the website to get a feel of how it works. The goal is to get $50,000 in a month so help spread the word.

LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham - Plastic Man Exclusive Minifigure

Game Informer has revealed a list of pre-order bonuses for the upcoming LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. There are different exclusives for various retailers but I’m guessing that GameStop will be having the best exclusive and is the clear winner of the bonuses. As you can see from the image above, GameStop will have a Plastic Man minifigure for pre-ordering the game! I was hoping for the reveal at LEGO Batman 3 panel at San Diego Comic Con 2014 but I guess the cat’s out of the bag now.

Amazon – LEGO Batgirl Keychain
Best Buy – LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham Digital Comic Book by Comixology
Target – LEGO Batwing Polybag (30301)
Toys R Us – LEGO The Joker Keychain
Walmart – LEGO Tumbler Polybag (30300)

We’ve also already reported that EB Games Australia will also be giving away the Tumbler polybag. There’s no word at this time on what the pre-order exclusives for other countries are. Alas, we’re still waiting for Green Lantern to show up some day. What are your thoughts about getting a Plastic Man minifigure? Let us know in the comments below.

LEGO BIONICLE 2015 Rumored Set List

July 13, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

There hasn’t been any news on any upcoming 2015 sets but that has been turned totally upside-side today. Mesonak over on Eurobricks has posted a list of rumored LEGO BIONICLE 2015 sets that come from Russian site Exoforce.ru. Although this list is just purely speculation, comments on Eurobricks notes that the site that the list is from is pretty reliable. This list also gives some credibility to a rumor a few weeks ago (which we did not report on) saying that LEGO BIONICLE may be making a comeback in the near future.

Defender of Jungle (70778)
Defender of Stone (70779)
Defender of Water (70780)
Defender of Land (70781)
Defender of Ice (70782)
Defender of Fire (70783)
Lewa – Master of Jungle (70784)
Pohatu – Master of Stone (70785)
Gali – Master of Water (70786)
Tahu – Master of Fire (70787)
Kopaka – Master of Ice (70788)
Onua – Master of Land (70789)
Lord of Skull Spiders (70790)

The list above is a rough translation and is not the final set names if indeed LEGO BIONICLE is making a comeback. I know absolutely nothing about BIONICLE but fans of the theme may have some context of what these sets are about. Leave your comments below and let us know what you think of these rumored sets.

New LEGO Store Build-A-Minifigure Bar Elements

July 13, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

In addition to the new elements in the LEGO Pick-A-Brick Wall, the Build-A-Minifigure bar at the LEGO Stores also recently got some new items as well. Yesterday while I was checking out the very cool SDCC-themed community window, I also took a look at some of the new offerings at the minifigure bar.

A couple of things that may be new to the bar are some random torsos and legs from the Collectible Minifigures line. For the torsos, there were the Fitness Instructor from Series 5, the Hippie from Series 7, and even the vendor from the Balloon Cart (40108) polybag. For the legs, the selection included the Pop Star and Weightlifter from Series 2, the Hazmat Guy from Series 4, and the Boxer from Series 5.

A new piece that is available for the first time that I know of is the ghost shroud with open mouth. This pieces takes the place of the hair/hat piece so if you want some more ghosts in your collection, here’s another way to get some. The other new piece is for the accessory and that is the light bluish grey trophy cup. There are also capes but I’m not sure if they have been offered before or not.

Overall, there are some pretty cool pieces that are now available at the Build-A-Minifigure bar. These pieces may have shown up previously as I don’t frequent the bar that much when I go to the store but I have been informed that the Ghost and trophy pieces … Continue
