LEGO Star Wars Bespin Duel (75294) Revealed – Download Building Instructions

August 1, 2020

LEGO has inadvertently revealed a new LEGO Star Wars exclusive set with the Bespin Duel (75294). This set has been circulating on social media for the past week or so. This set features the iconic scene between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader in The Empire Strikes Back. There’s no word on how it will be distributed as it was rumored to be the Star Wars Celebration 2020 exclusive. There are new rumors of it being available at LEGO Brand Stores in September but we’ll see if that happens or if it’ll go to Target like with the Darth Vader Bust from last year’s Celebration. If you are building it yourself, note there are new parts that are in the set including new minifigure parts. You can now download the building instructions for it before LEGO decides to take it down.

LEGO Technic Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey (42113) Cancelled Due to Faulty Parts?

July 30, 2020

A week ago, LEGO announced that the upcoming LEGO Technic Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey (42113) will be cancelled for release due to it featuring a military vehicle even though this version was a search and rescue plane. A few lucky individuals were able to get one from their local shop and it may seem that there could be another reason why it was cancelled. A user over on Reddit showed a few images of their set and explained that some of the gear pieces became damaged with extended use. As you can see from the image below, the teeth on the gears are all bent compared to the undamaged part. Coincidentally, Huw over on Brickset released his review of the set today and the same issue was with his copy as well.

Connecting the dots, it may seem that there was more in play for the Osprey cancellation other than the reasons stated in the official comment. If it was due to a faulty part, it would make sense to cancel everything and release at another time when the issue is fixed. LEGO said that they will be making another formal statement soon so we’ll see what is actually going on.
