LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
This past weekend, LEGO VIPs were able to get the first 2019 LEGO Seasonal exclusive with the Christmas Tree (40338) early with purchases of $120 or more. The set has 392 pieces and is one of the biggest Christmas Trees LEGO has released as a GWP. All the parts are packed into two numbered bags.
There are even more LEGO City 2020 sets that have surfaced online via online retailer Van der Meulen. Probably the most interesting set out of this group is the Racing Cars which features two colorful non-licensed vehicles that are the usual 6-wide style if you prefer them.
The LEGO xtra polybags have been a great source of accessories for a very reasonable price. Brickset has revealed two new ones for 2020 which have been uploaded to LEGO’s servers. The two include Sports Accessories (40375) and Botanical Accessories (40376). The sports one has a number of equipment for various sports while the botanical one has a wide range of plants and leeaves. Again the images uploaded were only thumbnail sizes so they are a bit blurry when blown up but you can still see what the items are.
The LEGO Star Wars UCS Y-Wing Starfighter (75181) is back on sale again for 36% off on Amazon. It is currently priced at $127.99 which is a great price since LEGO themselves don’t have any good deals on Shop@Home.
Brickset has posted new images of some 2020 LEGO polybags which has showed up on LEGO’s servers. Unfortunately, they are only thumbnails so they are a little bit blurry when blown up. Probably the most interesting one is the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Captain Marvel and Nick Fury polybag which is coming out pretty late since the movie and been out for quite a while. There’s also a LEGO Speed Champions polybag that is still unknown at this time with set number 30342.
Last month, we reported that we will be getting a LEGO Classic white baseplate and it looks like there’s now an image of the packaging for it. As mentioned before, it will be product number 11010 have a price point of $7.99 but what’s interesting is that it doesn’t seem to be 32×32. Counting the studs across, it seems that it will be 30×30 instead. The white baseplate will join the lineup of other LEGO baseplates which includes Green, Blue, and Gray for next year and will be great for snowy landscapes.
Update: A few readers have correctly assessed that it will be 32×32 according to the image at the bottom.
