LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
If you have been wanting to pick up the LEGO Star Wars 501st Legion Clone Troopers (75280) set, Amazon currently has it available again for purchase at retail price. The only issue is that it won’t be in stock until January 12. It’s a tradeoff to guarantee the set since it’s still hard to find anything in stores and online at retail price. Since its release back in August, I still haven’t seen this set on store shelves in my area.
LEGO has kicked off a new tradition they are starting called LEGO Build Day. If it continues, it’ll happen on December 26 and basically it is just building whatever you like. LEGO would like you to share your creations online using the hashtag #LEGOBuildDay and your build may be shared by LEGO’s social media team. Although you can build whatever you want, LEGO is more likely to share your builds if they are original ideas.
Happy LEGO Build Day! Today is all about celebrating your awesome creations! Share your builds using #LEGOBuildDay and we may feature them for LEGO fans around the world to see! pic.twitter.com/PYalM9wfqP

The LEGO City Passenger Train (60197) is back on sale again on Amazon for 20% off. It is now priced at $137.99 and will ship in February 2021. It’s a long wait but the sale doesn’t happen very often so it’s worth it for some. You’ll have to choose the Frustration-Free Packaging to get the deal which means that it’ll ship in the LEGO shipping boxes.
Next up on my reviews of the LEGO Ninjago Legacy sets is the X-1 Ninja Charger (71737) which has 599 pieces and retails for $49.99. It will be available starting on January 1 along the other Legacy sets.
Merry Christmas to all the brick fans out there! To celebrate this holiday, I’m giving away a copy of the LEGO Star Wars Nebulon-B Frigate (77904) which was a cancelled San Diego Comic Con 2020 exclusive set that was eventually sold on Amazon and on the LEGO Shop. If you’ve been trying to get this set, you know how hard it is to get it as it has been the fastest set to go out of stock out of all the SDCC exclusives. This copy was from Amazon and there is a little issue with it.
As you can see from the images, there is a long scratch going across it. I’m not sure how it happened but that’s how I got it when it came in the mail. Looks like someone took a knife and scraped across it. Other than that, the set is still sealed and one lucky winner will be getting it. All you have to do is to enter the giveaway below. If you can’t see the widget, head over to this link. Good luck everyone and happy holidays!
Merry Christmas from us here at The Brick Fan! We hope you got all the LEGO you wanted on your list. This year has been pretty difficult for everyone but hopefully you get to enjoy today with your loved ones.
I’ll be running a giveaway some time later today for something that has been fairly difficult to get for people. If you followed me on social media the past few days, you may already know what it is. In the meantime, relax with the sounds of a LEGO Yule Log below.
