If you’re looking for an early stocking stuffer, the LEGO VIDIYO Punk Pirate Beatbox (43103) is on sale for 68% off on Amazon. As of this post, it is listed for only $6.49 which saves you $13.50 on it. It looks like Amazon is trying to clear out their warehouse and you may find more deals like this in the near future.

Earlier this month, LEGO announced that they are planting 50,000 trees in Vietnam near their new factory site. The trees are to compensate the 25,000 trees that will be removed during the upcoming construction in November. Currently, LEGO has already planted 15,000 trees with another 35,000 in the next two years at locations close to the site. As for the new LEGO factory in Vietnam, it was announced late last year and will be the company’s first carbon neutral run site which is set to start production in 2024.
Like with previous years, the LEGO House will be holding a Fan Christmas party in December. The five hour event will be held on December 9 and it will cost 499 DKK. It will include a traditional Danish Christmas dinner along with an hour of access to the LEGO House Experience Zones. Since the exchange rates have dropped, it only costs about $67 a ticket.
Next up on my reviews of the LEGO Avatar sets, we now check out Jake & Neytiri’s First Banshee Flight (75572). The set has 572 pieces andn retails for $59.99.
For some weird reason, LEGO has finally put up the designer video for the LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (10274). The set is almost two years old now and we have LEGO designers Mike Psika, Adam Grabowski, and Carl Merriam talking about some of the details in the set. One of the challenges they had was figuring out to refine how the gunner seat would pop out on the side. You may already know about the little details if you have the set but it’s still neat hearing how they came to be.
The Pac-Man Moving Display by LiteBricks is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. Consisting of 1,603 pieces, the build features a crank turning mechanism to move Pac-Man and the four ghosts. You can also switch out the four ghosts to four blue ones.
The project joins Ancient Roman Temple, This is Fine, and Castle Dracula as the ones to reach the Third 2022 Review Stage.
