June 3, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

In a surprise announcement out of left field this morning, LEGO revealed there will be some new LEGO Minions: The Rise of Gru sets coming in 2020. There’s not much information to go on but the clip on social media shows a minions looking around. Minions: The Rise of Gru will be in theaters on July 3, 2020 so we can expect to see the sets probably around next spring.

This is the second announcement of LEGO branching out to more animated films. If you remember, LEGO teased that some Trolls World Tour sets could be coming out next year as well.

LEGO Digital Monthly Store Calendars Rumored to Include Promotions Again

June 3, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

For a few months now, the LEGO Monthly Store Calendars have been quite useless as they have stopped showing upcoming promotions on them but that may change soon. I heard from a source that the new digital LEGO Store Calendars could be showing promotions on them again when it rolls out next month. To cater to fans even more, the calendars will be available the last Monday before the next month so for example, the July calendar will presumably be out on June 24. Of course I don’t want to get everyone’s hopes up if none of this happens but I have a good feeling that my source didn’t steer me in the wrong direction.

The sale will last until June 30 so as of this writing, there are 28 days left to put your orders in.

It’s a new month and that means there are some new sets that now qualify for Double VIP Points and for June, we have some The LEGO Movie 2 sets. These two sets are Queen Watevra’s ‘So-Not-Evil’ Space Palace (70838) and The Rexcelsior! (70839). As of this writing, it looks like there’s a glitch on Shop@Home as adding either set will also add the LEGO VIP Space Patch to the cart so get on it while you can.

Last month, there was an exclusive LEGO Stranger Things Castle Byers build at the Flatiron and Leicester LEGO Brand Stores for the release of the LEGO Stranger Things The Upside Down (75810). Although the building instructions are readily available, there are some exclusive stickers that you can only get during the building event.

I have some good news as it looks like the US LEGO Brand Stores will be getting the Castle Byers building event later this month. According to my sources, registration for the event will start on June 10 and there will be a limited number of spaces. As with other building events, registration will be in-stores only. I do not know what day the event will be held but I let you guys know when I find out.

For those who have been wondering if the exclusive LEGOLAND Park (40346) would be available at LEGOLAND Discovery Centers, I can confirm that they are being sold there as well. Thanks to Gordon who sent in an image from the LEGOLAND Discovery Center Dallas/Fort Worth. It is being sold there for $90 so it’s on par as far as pricing goes. I suggest calling your nearest Discovery Center before heading out as I can not confirm that all the Discovery Centers have them in stock.
