LEGO Minifigure Wall Mural

March 10, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

Slow news days gives me a chance to catch up on some emails I’ve received the past few days. A reader named Dan has emailed in about something that he’s been doing for his sons. As an artist, Dan has started a LEGO minifigure mural in their room featuring characters from the Super Heroes line. So far he has posted images of Batman, Superman, Robin, Spider-Man, and the Joker that he has painted on the walls. Just looking at the closeups of the images, the characters look spot on. Dan is also planning on painting an Avengers wall as well as characters from The LEGO Movie. Check out more images below and follow his deviantArt and Pinterest for updates in the near future.

For you LEGO Mixels fans, you already know that you can mix and match pieces to create new Mixel character. LEGO has provided a number of instructions for you to create a Mix, Max, or Murp character. If you combine certain Mixels together, you will get a Mix and one character will have more control than the other. If you combine all three characters from a single tribe, you can create a Max. If you combine Mixels that have no synergy with each other, you will get a Murp. This new Mixel will have a unique personality and cannot be controlled. Check out all the characters that you can create on the minisite. Keep in mind that not all the characters listed have instructions but you can get a feel on how to create your own.

Packaging Design Explanation for LEGO Star Wars UCS Sandcrawler 75059

March 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

The LEGO Marketing department has given an explanation of the Ultimate Collector’s Series seal on the new LEGO Star Wars Sandcrawler (75059).

“The decision has been made to change the packaging for future “LEGO exclusive” Star Wars sets to include the UCS seal and de-link from the core Star Wars packaging. In addition to the packaging change an update has been made to the building instructions. The building instructions will have additional pages detailing the model’s connection to the movie and its development process. Much as the Creator Expert badge differentiates the larger models from the core assortment the goal of this change is to better communicate to builders that these sets represent our biggest building challenge in the LEGO Star Wars theme.”

Volvo has released a press release and a video of how The LEGO Group and Volvo teamed up to create the Technic Volvo L350F Wheel Loader (42030). It seems that Eurobricks forum member Johan Sahlström, aka Superkalle who is also a Volvo engineer, had a hand in helping in the design of the set. As we’ve seen before, the L350F was revealed at the 2014 Nuremberg Toy Fair earlier this year.

LEGO The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures (71005) Details

March 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

Amazon.uk may have given us a clue of which characters are included in the LEGO The Simpsons Collectible Minifigures (71005).

Woo-hoo! It’s The Simpsons! The LEGO Minifigures series continues with this great collection of 16 of your favorite characters from TV’s longest-running comedy. There’s Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie Simpson, as well as Grampa, Ned Flanders, Ralph Wiggum, Nelson Muntz, Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, Chief Wiggum, Krusty the Clown, Itchy & Scratchy, Mr. Burns and Milhouse. Each The Simpsons minifigure comes in a sealed ‘mystery’ bag with its own special accessories, display plate and collector’s leaflet. Buy a bag, open it up and see which one you get!

One thing to note about the list above is that some of the characters are different from what was reported last year from Nerdly.co.uk. They listed Moe as one of the minifigures but he isn’t on the list above so we’ll have to see which one is correct. I’m guess he won’t be cause of the job that he has as a bartender which isn’t really suitable for children.

LEGO Store Fashion Valley Named Brand Retail Store of the Year 2013

March 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

I’ve just gotten news that my local LEGO Store in Fashion Valley (San Diego, CA) has won the LEGO Brand Retail Store of the Year for 2013! LEGO takes in many factors to choose the winner and the surveys we fill out after our purchases do factor into account. It isn’t a surprise that the Fashion Valley store won because the staff there is simply awesome from all the Brick Specialists and to Mike the Store Manager. I hang out there a lot (more often than I should) and I’ve seen first-hand of how the employees take care of their customers from answering questions customers may have to a simple thing like the check out process. If you have a chance to go to this store in Fashion Valley, show your support by congratulating the staff there. They do great work and they truly deserve the award!
