If you signed up for the LEGO Stranger Things earlier this month, this is a reminder that the Castle Byers building event will be held later on today if you have forgotten. I believe a majority of the stores will be doing it between 5pm-7pm and some will have slot times. If you didn’t sign up for the build, I suggest hanging out after the event has ended to see if the stores have any left over from people who didn’t attend.

A short while ago, LEGO announced the LEGO Jurassic World Jurassic Park T. rex Rampage (75936) and there was a divide among fans of how the set came out. We were lucky enough to receive a copy of the set for a review and here are my thoughts of it. First off the set contains 3,120 pieces and retails for $249.99 which comes out to about $0.08/piece. The contents of the box include a box filled with bags along with two large instruction booklets and the sticker sheet. The rest of the bags are just dumped into the outer box itself.
Walmart currently has the LEGO Jurassic World Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase (75932) on sale online for $26.99. This is a sale of 33% off the retail price of $39.99 and is a great deal for what you get with it. The set has 360 pieces and it recreates a few scenes from Jurassic Park while including a few exclusive minifigures.
The Medieval Blacksmith by Namirob is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The building features two floors and you can access the interiors by lifting off the floors. The project also proposes a modest three minifigures.
The project now joins UCS Space Shuttle Atlantis, Thunderbirds Are Go, Gravity Falls Mystery Shack, Pursuit of Flight, History Museum, and The Office as the projects to reach the Second 2019 Review Stage.
