The official LEGO Legends of Chima minisite has released another teaser picture of the new theme. Hoth Bricks has also reported that there are new images on a dedicated Wiki page for Chima. Meiko on Eurobricks states the new Wiki page is from the same people from the Ninjago Wiki. Also, the Legends of Chima theme will be in the works for a least two years.
The LEGO DC Universe Super Heroes Batmobile (30161) is now being sold at Target stores in the stocking stuffer section. The Batmobile was first given out for free in the UK’s Sun Newspaper earlier this year. FBTB reported it earlier today and I’ve happened to find a lot of them next to a bunch of LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 8 polybags. The Batmobile consists of 45 pieces and retails for $3.99 and has no minifigures. The car itself is a pretty nice mini version, much like the size of a Hot Wheels car. A nice little set for the cost of about a cup of coffee.

Many people including LEGO investors wonder when a certain set is reaching their end-of-life and will be retired. LEGO Shop@Home has now added an extremely useful “Retiring Soon” filter to help you find sets that will be gone in the near future. There are currently 8 sets in the list and it is certainly a page to return to in the future.

They will be joining a star-filled cast along with Chris Pratt, Morgan Freeman, and Elizabeth Banks who are already on board to voice characters in new animated movie. Ferrell will be voicing President Business, one of the main villains, while Neeson will be voicing Bad Cop, one of the President’s henchmen.

The expected released date of the movie has been moved up to February 7, 2014 instead of the original date of February 28 and is primed to be a great family movie.
