The LEGO Movie Radio DJ Robot Minifigure Polybag Found

January 9, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Another The LEGO Movie minifigure polybag has shown up courtesy of Dorayaki on Eurobricks via Ruten. This one is called the Radio DJ Robot. It wears a blue Master Builder Academy type shirt with some grey headphones. As mentioned in the article about the Pyjamas Emmet polybag, these are given out in the UK by pre-ordering tickets to the movie. There’s no word at this time on if or how these two minifigures will be showing up here in the States. I sure hope the Radio DJ Robot will be available here because I wouldn’t mind having a couple of these guys.

LEGO CUUSOO Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover (21104) Review

January 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Way back in August 18, 2012, the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity Rover project by Stephen Pakbaz, aka Perijove, achieved 10,000 supporters on LEGO CUUSOO. At the beginning of the year, it became available for purchase on LEGO Shop@Home and sold out very quickly. I’ve managed to get one before stock ran out and here’s my take on it. The Curiosity Rover (21104) contains 295 and retails for $29.99. At 295 pieces, this set is currently the smallest CUUSOO set that has been released by LEGO. The box contains one instructions book, four un-numbered bags, and two loose 8×16 tan plates.

The LEGO Movie Pyjamas Emmet Polybag Found

January 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

In our third straight article about The LEGO Movie, there is a new minifigure polybag that was found by Dorayaki over at Eurobricks. This polybag is called Pyjamas Emmet and it features Emmet in his pyjamas as seen in the trailer. It shows him half-awake yet happy at the same time. There’s no word on how it will be distributed at this time.

Update: Deepdalelegend on Brickset mentioned that this polybag is given out when you book tickets to The LEGO Movie. Plus there is also a mysterious DJ minifigure polybag supposedly given out as well. Well, time to go looking around to see if any theaters around here are doing the same offer.

Sneak Peek at February’s Monthly Mini Model Build

January 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

Today at my local LEGO Store, there was a preview of the February’s Monthly Mini Model Build which is the Micro Manager from The LEGO Movie. It looks larger than the snowplow that we got for this month. I’m looking forward to getting this little guy next month to add to the growing army of Micro Managers. As usual, quantities are limited with the event to about 250 per store so head there early to get in line to build one of these guys.
