LEGO Still Life with Bricks: The Art of Everyday Play by Chronicle Books

February 26, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

There’s a new book coming out from Chronicle Books in April called LEGO Still Life with Bricks: The Art of Everyday Play. It was announced during New York Toy Fair last week and it features art using LEGO bricks in everyday objects. The book will be released on hardcover on April 7 and it is priced at $18.95 on Amazon. There is also a set of 100 collectible postcards that you can get as well for $22.95 which features the same artwork from the book.

Capturing the boundless creativity of the LEGO® brand, this colorful book recreates objects and scenes from everyday life using LEGO bricks.

Transforming handfuls of bricks into minty toothpaste, eggs and bacon, lush houseplants, and more, LEGO Still Life reimagines the mundane and sparks playfulness in everyday life.

Featuring unique, clever, and captivating original art, these deceptively simple but meticulously executed images are full of surprise and delight—and remind us that the world around us is, too.

• Recreates commonplace scenes from everyday life using LEGO® bricks
• Creatively reimagines the everyday objects and scenes
• Presented without text, these clever images speak for themselves, offering joy, surprise, and creativity on each spread

LEGO Still Life is the perfect gift for LEGO lovers and art lovers alike.

LEGO Legacy: Heroes Unboxed Available for Download

February 25, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Yesterday I reported that LEGO Legacy: Heroes Unboxed would be launching this Thursday, February 27 but it looks like Gameloft has pushed the game to the live servers a little early. You can now download the game early but only in certain countries at this time. I expect other countries will get it on the official launch date.

After trying it out, it seems like it is your typical turn-based game where you can level and upgrade your characters but now you can do it in LEGO form. I’ll continue trying it out for the next few days and let you guys know if it is worth your time.

LEGO Eiffel Tower Magnet Build (854011) Review

February 25, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Releasing in a few days is a new LEGO Eiffel Tower Magnet Build (854011) that will be available for $9.99. LEGO has kind enough to send one of these sets over to check out a little early. It has 29 pieces and it features Paris’ most well known landmark. I’m not sure why LEGO chose this particular landmark to make a set out of but hopefully they continue with it.

The build is extremely simply but there are some nice pieces included with it mainly the 4x4x1 magnet brick. The cloud piece and green blade gives the Eiffel Tower a nice background scenery. The bonjour plaque on the bottom is a sticker so that’s up to you if you want to put it on or not.

These kind of sets are very miscellaneous and it caters to a very niche market. I wouldn’t go out of my way to get it but if you’ve been to Paris and would like a memento, this Eiffel Tower Magnet Build (854011) would be a decent item. The set will be available starting on March 1.

Thank you to LEGO for sending in this set for me to review. The content above represents my own opinion and not the company. Review sets sent in does not guarantee a positive review.

LEGO Ideas Indiana Jones Trilogy Achieves 10,000 Supporters

February 24, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The Indiana Jones Trilogy by BenBuildsLego is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The microscale build features scenes and the significant artifacts from the three original Indiana Jones movies (we don’t talk about the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull). The project also proposes three character minifigures from the films as well. The back of the build also implements additional microscale scenes from the respective movies as well. In their 8,500 supporter update, the creator decided to go with a Short Round minifigure instead of Indy’s dad so it’s possible to have all four characters if chosen.

• The Temple of Doom (Sankara Stones/Indiana Jones/Short Round)
• The Well of Souls (The Ark of the Covenant/Marion Ravenwood)
• Temple of the Sun (The Holy Grail/Dr. Henry Walton Jones, Sr.)

The project joins Mary Poppins, Cherry Tree Lane, Tesla Cybertruck, Untitled Goose Game, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Train Station: Studgate, SpaceX Falcon 9 (Saturn V Scale), Mini-fig Scale Project Gemini, and Retro Bowling Alley as the projects to reach the First 2020 Review Stage.
