Building LEGO on First Dates

February 14, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Today is Valentine’s Day and LEGO has recently released a video showing some strangers going out on their first dates while breaking the ice using the new LEGO Botanical Collection sets. The three couples engage in conversation using the Flower Bouquet (10280) and the Bonsai Tree (10281) that is set in between them. This relieves some of the tension that is inherently set when people go on first dates and it hopefully encourages others to try it when they go on dates.

LEGO has been pushing the LEGO 18+ product strategy a lot since its introduction last year and it has paid off for them as more adults have gotten into building LEGO in recent years. This is evident by the fact that the two sets have been currently out of stock at all retailers after its release last month and are hard pressed to catch any restocks that pop up online.

Although the LEGO Technic McLaren Senna GTR (42123) has been out for a while now, LEGO has just released a video of set. LEGO Designer Aurélien Rouge talk the process of creating the car. One challenge he mentions is the V8 engine for the car which uses smaller elements to create which is connected to the real axle. Another thing is the authenticity of the Senna using stickers for the detailing and sponsors.

LEGO Star Wars AT-ST Raider (75254) Amazon Sale – February 2021

February 11, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The LEGO Star Wars AT-ST Raider (75254) is currently on sale on Amazon for 20% off. Due to the recent news that Cara Dune’s actress, Gina Carano, is no longer part of the show, I have a feeling that this is the last time we’ll see the character in minifigure form, unless she is recasted in the future. I won’t get political here but if you’re wanting the set, I would suggest picking it up where you can find it due to many reseller groups telling their members to buy up all the stock to flip it.
