Star Wars Celebration 2020 Cancelled

June 15, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Star Wars Celebration 2020 is supposed to be held in August but the organizers have announced that the convention has been cancelled. As we know, LEGO usually has an exclusive set that is sold to attendees there but it looks like that won’t happening since there’s no place to sell it. If they did have a set planned, we’re not sure how, when, or where they would distribute it. The easiest way is to drop it on LEGO Shop@Home but even that has some logistical issues. Star War Celebration will be returning to Anaheim in 2022.

LEGO has officially announced the next 18+ set with the Crocodile Locomotive (10277). The set has 1,271 pieces and it will retail for $99.99. Although there’s no press release for the set, we do know that it will be available on LEGO Shop@Home starting on July 1. Train enthusiasts will be interested in this set due to the fact that it is the first crocodile design train LEGO has done since 1991 with 4551. It does allow the use of a Technic Large Motor, sold separately, and you will be able to control it using the Powered Up! app. Check out high quality images of the set below.

Watch First Couple Episodes of LEGO Monkie Kid

The LEGO Monkie Kid theme has been available for about a month now and there’s also an animated TV series that will be airing as well. I’m not sure exactly when or where it aired but the first couple of episodes have already been uploaded to YouTube. I’ve just watched it and it’s actually not that bad. The animation studio for LEGO Monkie Kid is Flying Bark Productions which is the same one that did Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles if you watched that show. The first episode jumps right into the action and basically gives you the premise of the story.

The tale begins when an ordinary boy, Monkie Kid, finds Monkey King’s legendary staff and he becomes the chosen one. Together with his brave and loyal friends, Monkie Kid begins his quest to stop the Demon Bull King and his army of Bull Clones from taking over the city.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment Reportedly Being Sold

June 12, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

News coming out this Friday afternoon is that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment parent company, AT&T, is looking to sell the gaming division. As we know, WB Interactive Entertainment makes the LEGO games and the next one that is scheduled to be released is LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. There are reports that a few companies are willing to purchase it including Take-Two, EA, and, Activision Blizzard. If a sale does happen, I’m not sure what will happen to future LEGO games in the future. It was mentioned that IPs such as Batman and Harry Potter will still stay with WB Interactive.
