LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Video Game Gamestop Pre-order Bonus Revealed

April 29, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Gamestop has revealed what their pre-order bonus will be for the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game. As you can see, it will be a Spider-Man key chain. You can already pick up the Spider-man key chain Shop@Home but we’re not sure if this will be a different variant since there are no images of it as of this time. This is a little different and disappointing “bonus” since there were exclusive polybag minifigures in other LEGO video games in the past and this time, we only get an already released key chain that you can pretty much buy in stores. Amazon is also having a pre-order on the Marvel Super Heroes video game but hasn’t announced any exclusive bonuses yet. Will this news from Gamestop affect your purchasing decision on the game if you’re deciding to pre-order?

Update: Gamestop has included an image of the Spider-Man key chain and it is confirmed that it will be the same one as the one sold in LEGO stores.

If you are a Gamestop PowerUp Rewards member and you pre-order the game, you will also get a code to download exclusive content that has extra characters, vehicles, and races. Examples of the charafcters are Spider-Man Symbiote, Hawkeye, Thanos, and more. Quantities for this bonus are extremely limited.

LEGO Games Cancelled

April 26, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

If you’ve loved the various games that LEGO has released, we’re sad to report that we may have seen the last of them. All About Bricks is reporting that LEGO will be cancelling the Games theme by the end of the year because of poor sales. The theme did have great sales when it first launched back in 2009 but sales of the sets have dropped off since then. All About Bricks also states that the “current range will be available until all supplies are depleted” and that the Games that were supposed to be released later this year are also cancelled. Those sets are:

Batman (50003)
Story Mixer (50004)
Legends of Chima (50006)
The Battle of Helm’s Deep (50011)

LEGO has not confirmed that the Games theme will indeed be cancelled but the article states that last year’s Games will be the final sets to be released. You can still pick them up at many retail stores as well as on Shop@Home. You can also purchase sets from Amazon cheaper than the retail price as well as FREE shipping with Amazon Prime.
