Two Exclusive Early Access LEGO Sets Coming in May

LEGO May 2018 Exclusives

The last important piece of news that comes out of the May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar is that LEGO has revealed there will be two new exclusive sets that will be available for Early Access for LEGO VIP members from May 16-31.

One of the sets that could be coming out for Early Access is the LEGO Technic Bugatti Chiron (42083) which was teased back at the Nuremberg Toy Fair. The speculation comes from the announcement on the minisite for the set which shows that the release date had been pushed up to June 1 for world release. This makes sense as Early Access is a few weeks before the general release of the set.

The other set that will be coming out is a complete mystery to me. From what I’ve gathered online, it could be the Visitor’s Center from Jurassic Park as it has been heavily rumored. As we know by now, we’re already getting a Walmart exclusive 25th anniversary set called the Jurassic park Velociraptor Chase (75932) and there’s talk that it could somehow connect to the Visitor’s Center. But again, these are just rumors so we’ll get the information of the second Early Access set later this month or early next month.

What are your guesses on what the exclusives that will be coming out next month early for VIPs? Let us know in the comments below.

LEGO BrickHeadz Tactical Batman & Superman (41610) First Look

LEGO BrickHeadz Tactical Batman & Superman (41610)

A short while ago, I did a post of the May 2018 LEGO Store Calendar and on the back of the calendar, we can see a brand new LEGO BrickHeadz set that will be available starting in May. As you can see in the image above, we will be getting the Tactical Batman & Superman (41610) set from the Justice League movie which will be a two-pack and will retail for $19.99.

There’s no word on piece count but this will be the third version of Batman and the second for Superman in the BrickHeadz line but these two will complete the Justice League lineup of super heroes.

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Sets Releasing April 16

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

Get your wallets ready! The Spring 2018 LEGO Store Catalogs are now showing up in mailboxes for those who are still getting mail and inside we get more information of some of the upcoming set releases. For the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets, we’ve gotten a general mid-April release date for them but the catalog finally gives a firm release date for them as next Monday, April 16, at least here in the US.

Hopefully, LEGO has learned their lesson from the previous LEGO Jurassic World sets and made enough to go around as a few sets from the last wave had pretty limited quantities. I have a feeling that a few of these sets will be very popular among fans including the classic Jurassic Park set. Below are the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets that will be coming out next week.

LEGO Jurassic World T. rex Transport (75933) First Look

LEGO Jurassic World T. rex Transport (75933)

You may have thought that you’ve seen all of the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets but Walmart has another set that we haven’t had an official image of which is the T. rex Transport (75933). Yes, there was an image of the set on eBay but I didn’t want to report on that earlier. It has 609 pieces but the price point is still a mystery at this time. The minifigures in the set include Zia Rodriguez and two guards but you also get a baby dino as well as a full-sized T-Rex. This set was thought to be a Toys R Us exclusive but it looks like it’ll be available at Walmart as well as on Shop@Home.

Track the Tyrannosaurus Rex in this big-action play set scene inspired by Jurassic World and return it to the transporter, featuring a single-seater truck, detachable container with opening and lockable side panels, and a mobile laboratory unit.

This T. rex toy includes 3 minifigures and 2 dinosaur figures.

Includes 3 minifigures: Zia and 2 guards, plus 2 dinosaur figures.

Features a single-seater truck and a detachable trailer with a containment unit that has opening and lockable side panels, landing gear, plus a mobile medical unit and monitoring system with 2 transfusion leads.

T. rex features posable limbs, head and snapping jaws.

Weapons include a gun stud shooter and a shock prod.

Unlock the containers side panels and stage a T. rex escape!

Remove the mobile laboratory unit from the transporter and attach the leads to the dinosaurs

LEGO Star Wars Solo Sets Reportedly Found at Walmart Stores

LEGO Star Wars Kessel Run Millennium Falcon (75212)

There are various reports that the new LEGO Star Wars Solo sets have started to show up at various Walmart stores including the new Kessel Run Millennium Falcon. Also found there was the non-Solo themed sets with Yoda’s Hut. It looks like street dates have been bypassed and people were able to purchase them without any issues but your mileage may vary on that as some stores might not allow it. If you have found some of these sets, let us know in the comments where at. Keep in mind that they will also be available in May just in time for the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event and its promotions.
