LEGO Seasonal Banana Guy Set Revealed

Our friends at PromoBricks has given us a first look at the new LEGO Seasonal Banana Guy promotional set. It is in the same line as the previous Seasonal sets that come in the little cardboard box which included the Iconic Easter (5004468), Gingerbread Man (5005156), Caveman & Cavewoman (5004936), and the current Iconic Easter 2018 (5005249).

As you can see from image above, the set comes in a tropical hut design with the Banana Guy wearing some sandals while having a boombox as an accessory. There’s no word yet on the availability for the US at this time but it is already available at LEGOLAND Billund. I assume this set will be part of a promotion this summer as it fits the vibe of the set.

LEGO Ideas I am Amelia Earhart Achieves 10,000 Supporters

The I am Amelia Earhart project by Ellen Kooijman (Alatariel) and Brad Meltzer is the latest one to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project has 186 pieces and it is based on the children’s book of the same name with it featuring the famous pilot along with her yellow plane, Canary. With this project hitting 10k supporters, it is Alatariel’s fourth project to hit that mark. There was a slight scare for this project because it was down to its last 30 days of its final extension but there was a lot of support the last day or so to help it get over the hump.

The project now joins the Embraer A-29 Super Tucano, SR-71A The Final Flight, Treehouse, Stitch, and Modular Arcade as the projects to qualify for the First 2018 Review Stage.

LEGO Ideas Modular Arcade Achieves 10,000 Supporters

The Modular Arcade by Astronaut Avila is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. As you can see, the project is a corner modular style which should be able to connect to existing modular buildings. The building has three floors, pizzaria, arcade, and apartment and each of them are filled with little details.

The project now joins the Embraer A-29 Super Tucano, SR-71A The Final Flight, Treehouse, and Stitch as the projects to qualify for the First 2018 Review Stage.

Tiffany Haddish Signs on for The LEGO Movie Sequel

Warner Bros. has had a tight lip on the details of The LEGO Movie Sequel and there hasn’t been a lot of information about it since last September. It has come to light from The Hollywood Reporter that Tiffany Haddish has signed on to voice a brand new character in the franchise. She joins the returning cast of Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Channing Tatum, and Jonah Hill with Mike Mitchell at the helm. There’s no mentioning on how Haddish will fit in to the sequel but it’ll be interesting to see how her character will be incorporated to the story.

The LEGO Movie 2 will be in theaters on February 8, 2019 unless it gets delayed.

LEGO City Train Sales on Amazon

I haven’t done these posts in a while but Amazon currently has some LEGO City train sets on sale which price matches some other retailers. They are some of the older train sets from 2014 so they could be retired soon given that there’s a rumor of some new train sets coming this summer/fall. There are also some additional track sets that are on sale which are at their lowest prices ever on Amazon including the Flex Tracks (7499) and the Switch Tracks (7895).


High-speed Passenger Train (60051) – $117.19 (22% off)


Cargo Train (60052) – $159.99 (20% off)


Flexible Tracks (7499) – $15.19 (24% off)


Switch Tracks (7895) – $11.69 (27% off)


LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy (21314) Designer Video

The LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy (21314) was announced last week and LEGO has released the designer video of the set. This video actually goes into the design process a little bit more than previous designer videos as a majority of the video talks about the set more rather than the LEGO designers Junya Suzuki and Mark Tranter. The LEGO Ideas TRON: Legacy set will be available starting on March 31 for the retail price of $34.99.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 18 Found Early at Target

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 18

If you want to get your hands on the Series 18 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71021), you may want to your local Target store as they have started to appear at various locations. The price of them have stayed the same with them being $3.99 each. Finding them early is somewhat key if you hope to score the fairly exclusive Policeman minifigure which comes one per box. If you haven’t yet, check out my review of the series and see the breakdown of how many minifigures come in a new box of 60. If you have found them, let us know in the comments where you’ve found yours as it could help others as well.
