The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71020) Review

February 26, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

In a surprise release at the beginning of the year, LEGO released Series 2 of The LEGO Batman Movie Collectible Minifigures (71020). Like with the previous series, there are a total of 20 minifigures to collect. One new thing about this wave are the Batman branded baseplates that are used for the minifigures.

LEGO Classic 60th Anniversary Collectible Booklet Update

February 26, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A lot of you who have purchased the LEGO Classic Bricks on a Roll (10715) from Walmart in hopes of getting the free collectible booklet have asked whether others have gotten it or not even though they’ve submitted their receipt weeks ago. I’ve seen one or two images of the booklet online but the majority of readers who have contacted me have not received theirs at this time.

For me, I submitted my receipt on January 30 and haven’t gotten anything back so far. I’ve emailed customer service and they’ve escalated my case to an “account manager” to look into it. I’ve had others who have emailed in who have also contacted customer service and they stated that the booklets are actually shipping out today, February 26. I’m not sure if this is the case for everyone but it’s worth contacting [email protected] to see what’s going on. Thanks to Fergus for the update on this.

In similar news, there’s only two days left to purchase the LEGO Classic Bricks on a Roll (10715) to be eligible for the booklet if it ever releases. Overall, it’s been somewhat short of a disappointment of how LEGO/Walmart has handled this 60th anniversary promotion so far from this booklet issue to the release of the three limited edition sets. Hopefully there’s still something up LEGO’s sleeve for the rest of the year.

Continuing with some of the upcoming LEGO books this summer, there’s also a new LEGO Ninjago book that will be available starting in August. DK has previously some of the Build Your Own Adventure books in the past but there’s a new one called LEGO Ninjago Build Your Own Adventure: Greatest Ninja Battles. The book will be updated with some of the new Sons of Garmadon villains as well as ones that came after the previous book. As with the other books, there will be a LEGO minifigure as well as an exclusive model. There’s no word on what the build will be but there’s an outline of it on the cover.

LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path Book Coming in June

February 25, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Back when I was in grade school, there were these popular books called Choose Your Own Adventure in which you, the reader, are taken through an adventure and you’ll face options at various points to be taken to a number of different endings. This summer, DK will be releasing their own CYOA book with LEGO Star Wars: Choose Your Path which has the same premise. The book has 128 pages and will be available on June 5.

As with many other DK books, there will also be a minifigure included as well. Note that it doesn’t say “exclusive” minifigure so it could be one that has already been released. We’ll just have to wait and see who it will be as we get closer to the release date.

You can pre-order it now on Amazon for $19.99 with free shipping for Prime members who also get the Pre-order Price Guarantee.

Be the hero of this book and choose where to go in the LEGO® Star Wars(TM) galaxy. Learn how to battle, who to team up with, which side of the Force to join, plus much, much more. Read the text, then decide where to go next by selecting one of two options on every page. Do you want to travel around Jakku by speedy quadjumper or by four-legged luggabeast? Will you choose to join the rebels over Scarif, or to fly after the Inquisitor? On Mustafar, do you dare to battle Anakin, or will you join him on the dark side of the Force?!

LEGO Dimensions Expansion Packs Available Again at 99 Cents Only Stores

February 25, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO Dimensions Beetlejuice Fun Pack (71349)

Last year around this time, 99 Cents Only Stores started carrying various LEGO Dimensions including Fun Packs and Team Packs. It looks like they’re doing it again this year as a number of stores around the country are selling them again for only $1.99 each which is a great deal on some retired and soon to be retired expansion packs. All of the packs are still currently working even though LEGO Dimensions has been officially cancelled but there will be no new content. It seems that the 99 Cents stores have different inventories so I can say for sure which store has what so you’ll have to check out what your location has.

LEGO Boost Ninjago Stormbringer (70652) Product Demonstration

February 24, 2018 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Back at the 2018 New York Toy Fair, LEGO showed off some new products and one of the new things that I haven’t seen much of on other outlets is a product demonstration of the LEGO Ninjago Stormbringer (70652). We already know that it will be available on August 1 for $39.99 but over on Pixel Dan’s channel, there’s a live demonstration of the set. When you connect it with LEGO Boost (17101), you can program the Stormbringer to do a variety of functions including leg movement, head and movement, and even roaring sounds. The set looks a little crude but it does bring kids in to teach them the basics of programming with LEGO Boost and the Stormbringer is the first of hopefully many more add-ons to the base system.
