LEGO Legends of Chima TV Show Coming Back in July

May 29, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

If you watched the new LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles animated series tonight, you would’ve seen a commercial for the Legends of Chima tv show and it’s return in July. Cartoon Network is promoting it to be a new series when it “premieres” again. If you remember back in January, Cartoon Network showed the first couple of episodes and came back with another episode in March. After those episodes aired, there was absolutely no news about the show after that, until today. My guess is that the show will start again in July with the very first episode and will continue to have weekly episodes thereafter. The timing of the return of the Legends of Chima is about perfect since that will be around the time that the Summer wave sets will be releasing. Are you excited to see the Legends of Chima show back on your tv screen?

LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles Premieres Tonight

May 29, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The time is here! The LEGO Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles animated show is set to premiere tonight with a special event on Cartoon Network at 8/7c. From the trailer below, JEK-14 will be “the newest villain in the LEGO Star Wars saga.” LEGO has been increasing the promotion of the animated show the past few weeks with the promo set as well as the life-sized X-wing Starfighter. Like with other LEGO shows, you’ll have action as well as some humor thrown in for some of the characters. How excited are you in The Yoda Chronicles and seeing how bad JEK-14 will turn out?

LEGO Star Wars Ewok Village (10236) Confirmed Set?

May 28, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Flickr member, mexxbear, has posted an image of what could be the long rumored LEGO Star Wars Ewok Village (10236). Hoth Bricks is reporting that GRogall has seen it and even has a price of € 249.99 for the set. There’s no “official” statement or images yet for the Ewok Village but it won’t be long until that news is uncovered by the LEGO community. From what we can see in the image, there are four Rebel Troopers, C-3P0, three Ewoks, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, and Chewbacca. The set itself is somewhat similar to the Ewok Attack (7956) from a couple of years ago. The set depicts the scene in Episode VI: Return of the Jedi where the heroes are captured by the Ewoks on the forest moon of Endor. If this is the real set that will be released, what do you think of it and will you be picking it up?

In other news, GRogall also announced two other sets to be released this year: LEGO Creator Sydney Opera House (10234) for € 279.99 LEGO Seasonal Winter Village Market (10235) for € 89.99.

Update: mexxbear has confirmed that the image above is indeed a MOC. After seeing the MOC and what the official set could look like, the wait of seeing the real set is even more excruciating since we’ve been waiting so long for a set like this. Hopefully we’ll get to see it soon.

Update 2: The set has been officially announced.
