There is now an image of the back of The LEGO Movie MetalBeard’s Sea Cow (70810) as well as a storage room full of the sets from the back room of an undisclosed LEGO store. Sources have been telling me that the set will go for $249.99 and they will be available early for LEGO VIP members in stores and on Shop@Home on February 17th.

Fxguide has released a 30-minute video going behind the scenes of The LEGO Movie.

I’ve gotten quite of few emails today of readers who wrote in to let me know that various LEGO Stores throughout the US have shipments of new LEGO sets including Star Wars, Super Heroes, Chima, Juniors, etc. You may want to call your stores to see if they do indeed have these new sets. Remember, you can get The LEGO Movie The Piece of Resistance (30280) polybag with purchases of $50 or more.
In other related news, I have received word from a few sources that next week’s LEGO VIP exclusive set, MetalBeard’s Sea Cow (70810) will go for $250. Hopefully, we’ll get to see some official images of the set later this week.
Thanks again to everyone who wrote in.
We now have an image of one of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Guardians of the Galaxy sets courtesy of promobricks at the 2014 Nuremberg Toy Fair. The set seen on the bottom right corner of the image is called The Milano Spaceship Rescue (76021). The set shows Star Lord flying and rescuing the Milano while Gamora is piloting the Ship.
In other LEGO Marvel news, you can see the back of the Astonishing X-Men costume version of Cyclops from this summer’s X-Men set.
Here’s a link to a large version of the image. Thanks to Ben for writing in and also Eurobricks for finding the image.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier will be in theaters in a few months and you’ve probably seen the trailers by now but have you seen a LEGO stop motion of it? Antonio and Andrea Toscano is back with another one of their awesome trailers and this one features the newest Captain America movie. Check out their video below. Here’s a link to a side-by-side version of the original trailer.
The LEGO Movie is the talk of the town right now and I was wondering when and if people were going to do cosplay of some of the movie characters. It looks like Flickr user SunlitEquinox is the first person that I’ve seen to do that with her Wyldstyle outfit. The whole outfit is not completed yet as the pants and shoes aren’t finished but the hoodie looks spot on. I’ll update this post as soon as the whole cosplay is done. Thanks BrickNerd and to everyone who emailed in about it.
