Make Your Own LEGO Harry Potter Chocolate Frog Cards

August 6, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Currently, the hottest LEGO theme right now is probably the LEGO Wizarding World sets which comprise of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts. Fans have been thoroughly enjoying the return of Harry Potter and have been experimenting with some of the new parts from the new wand sprues which has been documented by New Elementary and also creating new Harry Potter MOCs. One that I’ve came across and have been told about are the Chocolate Frog Cards by Daan de Ruijter. The Chocolate Frogs were first seen on the Hogwarts Express in The Sorcerer’s Stone and with the sweets, there’s also collectible cards of famous wizards and witches.

Daan has made a very good replica of the card featuring the new Albus Dumbledore minifigure from the latest Collectible Minifigures (71022) series. Seeing that he has gotten some great responses from his first image, he has graciously provided the building instructions over on his website and has even provided the parts list as well. You can even customize it to whichever wizard or witch that you desire by switching out the minifigure. The only hard thing is making the stickers for the names.

Two LEGO VIP Early Access Sets Coming September 13-30

August 5, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The September 2018 LEGO Store Calendar came out a few days ago and we’ve had time to look it over and see what’s coming up. Probably the most interesting thing for the month is the two VIP Early Access sets from September 13-30 but what could they be?

One of the sets could be highly rumored LEGO Star Wars UCS Cloud City set which we first talked about in January which I gave a detailed explaination of how it could be coming. The other set could possibly be the annual LEGO Creator Winter Village set which I have no idea what it is. There might have been some rumors but I haven’t actively looked for it so I wouldn’t know.

What do you guys think the two sets could be released next month for VIP Early Access? Let us know in the comments below.

Earlier today, Barnes & Noble held a building event for a mini LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Express. Eagle-eyed readers recognize that it is the same build is the same one as in the LEGO Dimensions Harry Potter Team Pack (71247) but for those who didn’t purchase the game a few years ago, LEGO decided to release this build again for those who attended. Thanks to my friend, Kelly, we have the building instructions for the mini Hogwarts Express as well as the parts list.

The next series of reviews that I will be doing are for the new LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets that have just recently been released and the first set I’ll be taking a look at is Aragog’s Lair (75950) which is a scene from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. It is the second smallest set in the wave coming in at 157 pieces and retails for $14.99. The contents of the box include three unnumbered bags and a small instructions booklet.

Last week I ran a contest for some SDCC 2018 LEGO swag including some posters and the Jessica Cruz minifigure. The contest is now over with over 8,600 entries and the winner is:

I’ve already contacted the winner and have already gotten shipping information. That’s why I waited to announce the winner because I didn’t want to change it if I didn’t get a response and had to choose another winner. Stay tuned as I’ll have another giveaway pretty soon for something different.

LEGO BrickHeadz Toys R Us Geoffrey (40316) Revealed

August 2, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Toys R Us is gone at least here in the United States and the United Kingdom but it looks like there’s a LEGO BrickHeadz Toys R Us Geoffrey (40316) set that has been produced. I assume is set was going to be available at TRU later this year but it looks like that’s up in the air. Countries that still have Toys R Us stores could possibly still see this set but I’ll let you know when it is available. Until then, the building instructions are live on LEGO’s servers so you can build your own but there are some printed bricks of stars that are exclusive to this set.
