LEGO Lord of the Rings Xbox 360 Video Game Mixup

November 13, 2012 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

If you’re planning on picking up the new LEGO Lord of the Rings video game for the Xbox 360, you might want to open it up in the store before you go home. GameInformer is reporting that certain shipments of the game contain a demo disc of the game instead of the actual game. So far, this issue is only affecting the Xbox version and not the PS3 version. If you’ve preordered the Xbox version to get the Elrond minifigure today, check your game or else you’ll have an expensive demo and minifig on your hands.

Update: Although the discs are marked a demo, some of them might be the full game. IGN has gotten their hands on one of these “demo” discs and confirmed that the are actually the full game.

LEGO DC Universe Super Heroes Batmobile (30161) Review

November 12, 2012 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

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.
