The official images of the last 2018 LEGO BrickHeadz Seasonal sets have have been uploaded to LEGO’s servers and they are the Thanksgiving Turkey (40273) and the Christmas Mr. Claus & Mrs. Claus (40274). The Turkey has 114 pieces and will retail for $9.99 while Mr. Claus & Mrs. Claus will be a 341 piece two-pack retailing for $19.99. Both sets will be available starting on October 1.
The new Captain Marvel trailer dropped this morning and the internet went into a frenzy of what was shown. Set in the mid 1990s, the story follows Carol Danvers who becomes Captain Marvel after joining a Kree military team called Starforce. She finds her way back home as a shapeshifting species called Skrulls start to invade Earth.
As for any LEGO Captain Marvel sets that could be coming, I have a guess that we may get one or two sets based on the movie similar to what LEGO did with Black Panther and Ant-Man. As for what I want to see in a set, of course, I want an updated Captain Marvel minifigure, perhaps in her Starforce outfit with the mask and mohawk. Also a couple of Skrull minifigures would be nice as we don’t have official ones of them yet.
Are you guys excited for Captain Marvel and what she would be bringing to the aftermath of Avengers: Infinity War? Captain Marvel will be in theaters March 8, 2019.
A few days ago, an image of a new Target exclusive LEGO set called Bean There, Donut That (40358) showed up online and various Target locations have started to get stock of them. It has 146 pieces and retails for $19.99 but I’m also hearing that this particular set could be a promotional item at the end of the month since Target has not been bringing them out to the sales floor.
A few days ago, I reported on the new Disguise LEGO costumes for adults which include various colored 2×4 bricks as well as other characters that were available from Target. If you’re looking for a better deal for them, Amazon has you covered. There’s a third-party store called BuyCostumes that is selling the same costumes at a cheaper price than on Target and also includes free Prime shipping. The prices are as of this writing and note there are only certain sizes available.
Today is Batman Day and to celebrate, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part social media networks have released a new image of Wasteland Batman. We saw glimpses of him in the trailer but this closer look of Batman shows him with an upgraded armor. All of the characters looks in the movie, except for Emmet, have changed to a Mad Max style look due to the aftermath of Taco Tuesday. This new look for Batman shows him with some tire shoulder pads and a torn cape. The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part releases in theaters on February 8, 2019.
Here’s something very interesting that has surfaced recently regarding LEGO video games. If you remember from a few days ago, I reported that there’s a rumor of a LEGO The Legend of Zelda video game that was supposedly planned for a Nintendo Direct announcement. People have been saying that it could be a fake rumor and I’ll leave it at that. However yesterday, Yicai Global tweeted out some cryptic images of a brick-built yellow brick, a brick-built sword, and a knight minifigure and the tweet says Tencent and LEGO are teaming up to launch a game on September 19.
With the help of my mom, the translations for the images are as follows. The yellow brick one says something to “You’ve gone through many maps. You haven’t went into this gaming world.” The image with the sword says, “You’ve had a lot of equipment. You have never used this LEGO one. Each piece is individually crafted.” Finally, the knight minifigure images says, “You’ve fought a lot of enemies but not this one.”
It’s very curious to what this new LEGO Tencent video game will be but I’m assuming it will be a role-playing game (RPG) where you can level up your character and use different weapons fighting enemies and bosses in a large world. One thing to note is that the sword shown does not look like the Master Sword that Link uses in The Legend of Zelda series so that kind of debunks that this is a Legend of Zelda game.
