Even though The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part doesn’t come out until February 2019, LEGO has kicked off promoting the movie by holding a new building contest called The Awesome Building Buddies Competition. All you have to do is team up with another person and building something that combines two of your favorite things.

The prize that you are able to win include having your submitted photograph at the end title sequence of The LEGO Movie 2. There will be at least one winner and up to 50 winners meaning that you probably have a good chance to have your photo immortalized in a feature length movie.

LEGO has revealed another teaser for the LEGO Creator Aston Martin DB5 (10262) has they have showed off another image for the set. This time, there is a silhouette of the box in front of the gun barrel. There’s also the 007 and Aston Martin symbols at the bottom but at the top we have the LEGO Creator Expert which is the first time they have acknowledged what theme the Aston Martin DB5 is from. If you saw my post this morning, the Budapest LEGO Certfied Store already started their own promotion for it by taking pre-orders.

There’s still no word on when the set will be released but the July 18-31 VIP Early Access event seems like the best guess since there is also an event at the Leicester Square LEGO Brand Store happening on the same day.

It looks like the cat is out of the bag for the “top secret” LEGO James Bond set that will be coming out soon. The Budapest LEGO Certified Store has posted a pre-order page for the LEGO Creator Aston Martin DB5 (10262) which confirms all of the teasers that LEGO and Aston Martin has been pushing out the past few weeks. It has a release date of August 8 but but I’m assuming that it’ll be the July 18 for the VIP Early Access set. Stay tuned as the official announcement will be coming soon.

If you’ve been holding off on getting the LEGO Star Wars UCS Snowspeeder (75144), Walmart, of all places, currently has it on sale for 20% off and it is going for $159.95. If you’ve been collecting the UCS set, you would know that UCS sets usually don’t go on sale on LEGO Shop@Home so getting any kind of discount on it is a good deal. Even with the Double VIP Points promotion going on Shop@Home right now, the 20% discount is still the better deal and an even greater one for a pretty awesome set. If you haven’t checked out my review of the set, you can read up on it here.

LEGO has finally revealed a set date for possibly the reveal of the rumored LEGO James Bond Aston Martin DB5 set. According to a Facebook event at the Leicester Square LEGO Brand Store, there is a top secret event being held on July 18 at 10:07am UTC.

If you don’t know about the LEGO Aston Martin DB5, LEGO along with Aston Martin and James Bond’s social media feeds has been doing teasers for the set for the past few weeks.

Yesterday was the release of the LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets here in the US but due to a glitch in the system, the Hogwarts Express (75955) set was not available for purchase.
