August is just around the corner and it is usually one of the biggest months for new LEGO sets, at least in North America.

Note that there will also be price increases on current sets that are already available which go up to 25%.

LEGO Star Wars AT-TE Walker (75337) Release Delayed

July 27, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The LEGO Star Wars AT-TE Walker (75337) was revealed at LEGO Con last month and had a release date of August 1 but it looks like that won’t be happening. The product listing for the set took off the August 1 date and changed it to Coming Soon which means that the set has been delayed. LEGO has released a statement on the LAN regarding the delay.

Star Wars set 75337 was planned to launch in North America on August 1st, however, due to some delivery challenges, we expect it to be delayed by a few weeks.

As soon as we know a more precise date, we will update the shop website accordingly.

Due to “delivery challenges” the release of the AT-TE Walker has been postponed for a few weeks with no exact date announced yet. I’m guessing it’ll be out in September.

LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts: Grand Staircase (40577) Review

July 25, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The promotion for the LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts: Grand Staircase (40577) sold out on the LEGO Shop in North America after only a few days but we finally got our review copy in to check it out. The set has 224 pieces and you had to make a $130 LEGO Harry Potter purchase to get it. LEGO Stores may still have it in stock since the promotion is supposed to run until the end of July.

The set includes a minifigure of Hermione who is in the Hogwarts uniform with a skirt. Her double-sided head shows her with a smile on one side and a scared look on the other.

For the Grand Staircase, it’s a little smaller than I expected but it is able to fit in the current line of Hogwarts sets. There are some Technic pins on the backside that connects to other sections. The main feature of it is that the staircase is able to swivel to two different areas of Hogwarts.

One thing you’ll notice is that there is a lot of stickers for this set, 18 to be exact, all of which are for the Hogwarts portraits for the wizards and witches. The main one being the Fat Lady who is situated on the right wall. I’m surprised there isn’t one for Sir Cadogan and his horse. You can pop out the two larger panels to move them to the empty areas.
