LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
Last month, I ran a giveaway for readers of the site for a chance to win a theater sized poster for The LEGO Movie 2. The contest is now over with 3,050 entries and the winners have been randomly chosen and notified. Since the widget was broken for a few days, I extended it and also chose two additional winners on top of the original five. If you didn’t win, I have another sort of a giveaway coming up soon so stay tuned for that. Congratulations to the winners below.
There are some new building instructions for The LEGO Movie 2 LEGO BrickHeadz set that have been uploaded to LEGO’s servers. There characters that are included in the sets are Emmet (41634), Wyldstyle (41635), Benny (41636), and Sweet Mayhem. There’s no word on when they will be available on Shop@Home but I believe they will come out in March if they do get released. One of the more cooler parts from these sets is the printed 1×4 brick of the Classic Space logo.
If you remember back of October of last year, I reported that the LEGO BrickHeadz was rumored to be ending. I should clarify that the licensed BrickHeadz would be done however LEGO will still produce the in-house sets like the Seasonal ones and for their own IPs.

March 4-31: Best in Show Building Event. Go to the LEGO Store and build a dream car to display it at the store.
March 5-6: VIP Monthly Mini Model Build is a Viking Ship. As I reported before, this will be the last Monthly Mini Model Build event but there are things in store the the rest of the year. I know some details about it but will wait until next month to talk about it.
