LEGO Star Wars The Razor Crest (75292) Set Name Change Coming to North America?

August 28, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A few readers have noticed that the LEGO Star Wars The Razor Crest (75292) has been removed from Shop@Home. This probably means that there might a set name change coming soon for it like with the European versions of the set which is now called The Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Transport. In Europe, the term “Razor Crest” isn’t trademarked by Lucasfilms but by Michael Gaßmann who owns a site called Modbrix which is using the term to sell a MOC of the Razor Crest.

There could be a lengthy legal battle going on in Europe between Lucasfilms and Modbrix for the use of the term and LEGO may simply not deal with it and just change the name to something more generic. This name change may have a ripple effect on the North American version of the set as well and hence the product page takedown. I wouldn’t be too surprised if the page comes back up in a day or two with the new set name. Note that Amazon still has their product listing up with the Razor Crest name.

Update: It looks like North America will indeed have the name change. Below is an image of the US pre-order on Shop@Home which has the new set name. Thanks to Mike for the image.

LEGO Unikitty TV Series Ends

August 27, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Cartoon Network has aired the final episode of Unikitty with a two-part finale called The Birthday to End All Birthdays. If you remember from last year, it was reported that Cartoon Network didn’t pick up the series for another season but that was rebuked by the showrunners. There was a gaps between airings of episodes in the last two seasons, nine months in season two and four months in the last season. I’m not sure if it was Cartoon Network or the show itself that caused those delays.

All in all, there were 104 total episodes of Unikitty that aired between 2017 until now. There is a niche group of dedicated fans of the show which probably kept it going longer than expected. There were eight LEGO sets that were released for the show along with a series of Unikitty blind bags.

It looks like LEGO Shop@Home is done doing pre-orders for the LEGO DC Fandome Wonder Woman (77906) exclusive set. The link that allowed you to place pre-orders for it has been removed from the product page. It has been up since Saturday but if you missed out on it, Walmart is still taking orders for it. Both sites says it will ship out on October 1 which is still pretty far out for an exclusive that was supposed to have taken place last month.
