LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall (75954)

The 2018 New York Toy Fair is now over and there was a lot of LEGO news that came out that you may have missed so here’s a little recap of some of the more notable news items from the event.

LEGO Announces the Return of Harry Potter

Probably the biggest thing that LEGO announced during the Toy Fair was the return of Harry Potter in a new LEGO Wizarding World theme that encompasses both the Harry Potter universe as well as Fantastic Beasts. The first set that was revealed in this theme was the Hogwarts Great Hall (75954) which retails for a modest $99.99 for a 878 piece set. This set along with the rest of the wave will be available starting in August.

LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom Sets Officially Revealed

The official images of all the LEGO Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom sets were revealed, minus the Walmart exclusive LEGO BrickHeadz sets. Here we get to see some of the new dinosaurs that will appear in the movie in LEGO form such as the Stygimoloch, Carnotaurus, and the Indoraptor.

The set has 1,363 pieces and retails for $119.99. It will be available starting on March 3 along with the rest of the Infinity War sets.

LEGO Speed Champions 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback (75884) Review

February 20, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The new LEGO Speed Champions sets will be available starting in March and one of the new ones that I was very looking forward to building was the 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback (75884). It is one of the two Ford that will be releasing in this wave. I don’t have the piece count because this is the European version of the set and it will probably retail for $14.99.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Back on Amazon

February 20, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Here’s some early morning news as the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) is now back in stock on Amazon at regular price exclusively for Prime members. It seems that Amazon has been restocking the set more frequently than on Shop@Home which is weird. I have no idea how much stock they have so get on it if you don’t have it yet.

Update: Sorry folks, it looks like it’s gone for now.
Update 2: It looks like they’re coming back in stock in small batches.

New LEGO BrickHeadz Sets Rumored for 2018

February 19, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

At the 2018 New York Toy Fair, we finally got to see the newly revealed Go Brick Me (41597) coming in April but there’s also a new LEGO BrickHeadz rumor that I did not hear about until today. It looks like the LEGO BrickHeadz theme will be expanding to more licenses with some of their upcoming products.

According to Falconfan1414 over on Eurobricks, it seems that there are a couple of more BrickHeadz for Justice League as there will be one for Tactical Batman and Superman coming in May as a two pack for $20. The designs of the BrickHeadz will be similar to the suits in the Flying Fox: Batmobile Airlift Attack (76087).

In addition, there will be a Back to the Future Marty McFly & Doc Brown set coming in May for $20 as well. If this rumor is true, it’s nice to see that LEGO is again utilizing the BTTF license they had for the LEGO CUUSOO and Dimensions sets.

Finally, there will also be a two pack Minecraft BrickHeadz set coming in August featuring Steve and the Creeper. It’ll be interesting to see how the legs of the Creeper will be recreated in the BrickHeadz form.

As always, these are just rumors until LEGO announces them or they show up early at online retailers.

LEGO City Hot Dog Stand (30356) Available at Target

February 19, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Valentine’s Day is over and that means that Target has pretty much changed over to the Easter layout which means new polybags are now available here in the US. The only new one I’ve found so far is the LEGO City Hot Dog Stand (30356) for $3.99 each but there’s still the older LEGO Creator Cute Pug (30542) as well. The Hot Dog Stand was first available in the EU last month during a Shop@Home promotion. It’s a good addition in any City layout and the most interesting parts for me are the larger wheels which are still fairly rare.

LEGO Star Wars Solo: A Star Wars Story Character Posters

February 18, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A few weeks ago, Star Wars revealed some new teaser character posters for Solo: A Star Wars Story and today, LEGO recreated those same posters in their own unique way, in LEGO form of course. The vintage looking posters show a young Han Solo along with Chewbacca, Qi’Ra, and Lando Calrissian with a small image of the Kessel Run Millennium Falcon being chased by some TIE Fighters. Hopefully LEGO releases these posters as a promotional item similar to The LEGO Batman Movie ones.

The LEGO Star Wars Solo: A Star Wars Story sets come out this April and we’ll probably start seeing the rest of the sets most likely next month. That’s if they don’t show up earlier at some online retailers sooner than that.
