LEGO Early Black Friday 2019 Rumored Promotions

Yesterday I reported on some of the promotions for LEGO Black Friday 2019 but I now have news on the Early Black Friday promos as well. I’ve been told there will be Double VIP Points, a red 2×4 brick that is brick built with purchases of $200 or more, and the Christmas Tree (40338). I’m not sure how big the 2×4 brick will be since this is the first time I’ve heard of it. These promos will run next weekend in stores and on Shop@Home.

I want to also clarify and apologize that the Batmobile will not be on sale early as I have previously reported. There was a mixup of information as there will be a number of promotions going the next few weeks. It will be available on November 29 along with the mini Batmobile.

Brick Fanatics Magazine Issue 12 Available Now

An interview between LEGO Star Wars and Lucasfilm, a first look at 76139 1989 Batmobile and an exclusive LEGO Originals Wooden Minifigure report all make Issue 12 of Brick Fanatics Magazine unmissable

The 12th edition of the print publication all about LEGO is available worldwide to order now at www.brickfanatics.com/magazine, with shipping due from the end of November. Single copies (with additional postage and packaging charge) and 12-issue and 24-issue subscriptions from Issue 12 are all available to order.

This issue leads with a very special interview between LEGO and Lucasfilm, as Brick Fanatics Magazine brings together designers from both companies who have played their part in shaping this most recent era of Star Wars on the big screen and in LEGO.

As part of Pinewood Studios’ Creature Department, Concept Designer Jake Lunt Davies is responsible for designing a host of droids and creatures that have appeared in Star Wars, starting with The Force Awakens and ending with December’s upcoming The Rise of Skywalker. From prominent characters such as BB-8 and the Porgs to memorable creatures such as the Rathtars, the Caretakers and Thala-sirens and background heroes like Pao and Ello Asty, Jake has helped shape the last five years of Star Wars on the big screen, and, inadvertently a large number of LEGO Star Wars sets too.

As the Skywalker saga and sequel trilogy draws to a close this December with the release of The Rise of Skywalker, Brick Fanatics Magazine sits Jake down with LEGO Creative Director Jens Kronvold Frederiksen and Design Manager … Continue

New LEGO Black Friday 2019 Promotion Revealed

We’ve already known about some LEGO Black Friday 2019 promotions such as the Christmas Tree (40338) and the Limited Edition 1989 Batmobile (40433) with the purchase of the larger sized one but it looks like there’s another promotion that you can get. Thanks to my friend Andrew, we now know of the Mini Surfer Van that will be an in-store only item with purchases of $50 or more on November 29. In addition, LEGO will be kicking off their Black Friday on November 25 in which they will have sales on selected items. I’ll keep you updated on what will be going on sale when the promotion starts.

LEGO Batman 1989 Batmobile (76139) Rumored for Early Black Friday Release

The LEGO Batman 1989 Batmobile (76139) was announced just in time for Black Friday shopping which includes the free smaller Limited Edition (40433) version of the set when you buy it. One of the questions I’ve been asked a lot is will VIPs have Early Access for it. I have just heard from a good source that the Batmobile will indeed be available the weekend before Black Friday. Whether or not the Early Access will include the LEGO Seasonal Christmas Tree (40338) promotional remains to be seen at this time. LEGO did do an early Black Friday promotion last year with all the gift with purchase items so it’s possible that they will do it again this year.

Update: The Batmobile will not be on sale early.

LEGO Ideas The Flintstones (21316) Walmart Sale – November 2019

The LEGO Ideas The Flintstones (21316) is currently on sale over at Walmart for $39.99 which is 33% off the regular price. You’ll have to add the item into your cart to see the price but it does work for delivery and free pickup in store. The set has been somewhat controversial due to some of the changes from the LEGO Ideas project to the final product but it looks like this discounted price is as low as it’s going to get for now.

LEGO to Debut The Brick-Changer Float at 2019 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Thanksgiving is coming up very soon and as a tradition, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will be happening in New York and LEGO will be debuting a new float there. Coming from a child’s imagination, the float is called The Brick-Changer and it is part turkey and part dragon. This is the second float that LEGO has presented in the parade with the first one being the Carousel of Imagination from 2002. K-Pop band NCT 127 will be one of the artists performing on it.

This November millions of kids and families will be inspired to build – and rebuild — the impossible as LEGO Systems debuts a new float in the 93rd Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade®. On Thursday, November 28, 2019, it’s all about brickcraft for fans of all ages as The Brick-changer float takes to the streets of New York City delighting more than 3.5 million spectators and more than 50 million viewers nationwide, with a creative wonder set to rebuild the world, one colorful brick at a time.

“We are incredibly thrilled to welcome the LEGO brand back to the Macy’s Parade family with a brand new float that figuratively breathes creativity into the building blocks of the imagination,” said Jordan Dabby, producer of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. “The new LEGO float is a conceptual marvel, marrying the creative and design talents of the artists of Macy’s Parade Studio with that of LEGO MasterBuilders to bring to life a magical creature that will inspire a new generation of Parade spectators.”
