It looks like Amazon has unofficially kicked off Prime Day early with a great deal on the LEGO Technic Bucket Wheel Excavator (42055). It is currently priced at $199.99 which is a whopping 29% off the normal price of $279.99. Coming in at 3,929 pieces, the Bucket Wheel Excavator is one of the largest Technic sets LEGO has released and the $0.05/piece ratio makes it even better. We usually don’t see decent discounts this big for sets this size but this is one of the exceptions.
LEGO has revealed the first exclusive San Diego Comic Con 2018 minifigure for their giveaway at the event which is the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Sheriff Deadpool.

A few months ago, we got our first look at the upcoming direct-to-home LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Aquaman: Rage of Atlantis and it looks like there will be a screening of the movie at San Diego Comic Con 2018. There will also be a panel of the voice actors and filmmakers for a post-screening session. The main thing that fans may want to attend the panel is that they will be giving away the exclusive Jessica Cruz Green Lantern LEGO minifigure. The panel will be held on Sunday July 22, 2018 1:45-3:30pm in Room 6BCF.
For those who are unable to attend the screening, you can pre-order the movie on Amazon which will also include the Jessica Cruz minifigure.

Enjoy the first-ever live showing of the film, then prepare for laughs when the postscreening panel takes the stage.

LEGO Ninjago has been a staple at San Diego Comic Con for the past few years and fans have been drooling over the details for the upcoming seasons. Not surprisingly, LEGO Ninjago will be back at SDCC 2018 as the Sunday Programming Schedule is now out and there will be a panel held early in the morning. On Sunday, July 22 from 10:30-11:30am in Room 6A, the people behind LEGO Ninjago will be on hand and it’ll be a little interesting this year. The description doesn’t say they will talk about the next season but it says they will talk about their favorite memories and other reflections of the show. I believe they’ll still give a sneak peek but it’s curious the description doesn’t say the panel will like with previous years. Like as before, I’ll try to do a live tweeting session if my schedule lines up.
If you think ninja and LEGO are cool, then this is the panel for you! Ninjago veterans Tommy Andreasen (co-creator/producer) and Michael Svane Knap (LEGO senior design manager) are joined by lead writer Bragi Schut, voice talents Brent Miller (voice of Zane), Kelly Metzger (voice of Nya), and Vincent Tong (voice of Kai) to talk about their favorite memories and other reflections on creating LEGO’s longest running and most successful show. Bring the kids! Ninjaaaaa-GO! Moderated by the LEGO Group’s Brian Bowler.
The San Diego Comic Con 2018 programming schedules have started rolling out and not surprisingly, there are some LEGO-related panels that fans can look forward to. One of the main panels that I was expecting was the LEGO DC Super-Villains: Meet the Talent Behind the Video Game. It will be held on Friday July 20, 2018 2:15pm – 3:15pm in Room 6A. During the panel, we can see more details about the game including more character reveals as most fans are wanting to see. There’s no mentioning of any giveaways during the panel but we usually do get something for attending.
The team behind the LEGO DC Super-Villains videogame, including Arthur Parsons (head of design, TT Games) and fan-favorite Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy, give an inside look at the first LEGO game to put players at the center of a villain-centric adventure packed with favorite locations and characters from across the DC Universe. This celebration of villainy will provide fans with exciting character reveals and details about the story. Players have the ability to create and play as a super-villain throughout LEGO DC Super-Villains, unleashing mischievous antics and wreaking havoc in an action-packed, hilarious story written in collaboration with DC Comics. Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and The LEGO Group will release the game on October 16.
Today is the last day for Double VIP Points on LEGO Shop@Home so if you’ve been holding off on getting your purchases in, you should pull the trigger soon. The LEGO Beach Tote promotion is also in effect so you can get even more if you’re making a big purchase. To help you reach that purchasing requirement, we do have the newly released and very popular LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets available for order. They are still currently under backorder status but they will ship out by July 21. There’s no word on when the next Double VIP Points event will be held but there is a small one for some Harry Potter sets in August.
