November 8, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I’ve been playing the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes video game on Playstation 3 on and off for a few weeks now and I think it’s about time for a little review on the game. The game was developed by Traveller’s Tales in conjunction with LEGO and Marvel and retails for $49.99. I’ve completed about 80% of the game but there’s still much more to do in it. For individuals who haven’t gotten to play the game yet, viewer discretion is advised aka SPOILER ALERT!

Today, the LEGO Lord of the Rings video game has been released on Apple iOS. The game is similar to the console version with the trilogy storyline and you can download the game right now on iTunes for $4.99. If you don’t feel like paying $20 for the console version, why not pay $5 and take it along with you on your mobile devices. The game requires 1.37 GB and iOS 6.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch.

Follow the epic storylines of the original The Lord of the Rings trilogy reimagined with the humor and endless variety of LEGO gameplay. Relive the legend of The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King through LEGO minifigures, as they explore wonders and solve timeless riddles. Orcs and fouler things await on this perilous path to Mount Doom but a Fellowship will be formed — Aragorn the Ranger, Gandalf the Wizard, Legolas the Elf, Gimli the Dwarf, Boromir Man of Gondor, and Frodo’s Hobbit friends Sam, Merry and Pippin all join in to help along the quest to destroy the Ring and return peace to the land.

This game includes many hours of content and cinematics that take up a lot of space! You will need 3 GB of available space on your device if you install over wifi, but only 1.5 GB of space if you download on your computer and then sync.  

As with many large app installations, we advise that you restart your device

November 5, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Over at the LEGO Club, there is an inside scoop of the background story for the return of the Ninjago series. The last episode of the Masters of Spinjitzu series aired over a year ago and the “Rebooted” series should be returning sometime in December. Below is a synopsis of what to expect when Ninjago makes its long-awaited return.

It’s been a long time since the Overlord was defeated by Lloyd the Golden Ninja. While Lloyd tours Ninjago celebrating his victory, the original four ninja — Kai, Cole, Jay, and Zane — have become teachers in Sensei Wu’s Youth Academy. Besides being bored in class all day, Kai and the rest of the ninjas dream of the days when they fought the forces of evil, but in the updated and technologically advanced world of Ninjago, there is no need for ninja any longer.

But that changes soon enough … trouble brews in New Ninjago City, famed inventor Cyrus Borg starts acting strange, and our four heroes get new weapons, new gear, and a new evil to fight!

With Nya, Kai’s sister, by their side, the ninja join forces once again to protect the people of Ninjago! Lloyd is back stronger than ever, and the evil Lord Garmadon is now the peaceful Sensei Garmadon! Join the adventure to see new friends and favorite heroes as the world of Ninjago is once again caught in a battle between good and evil!

LEGO Disney Princess Merida's Highland Games (41051)

Apparently, there a was an auction on eBay that ended yesterday for the new LEGO Disney Princess Merida mini-doll. You can see a closeup of Merida who wears a dark blue dress and carries her golden bow. The figure comes from Merida’s Highland Games (41051) which will be releasing next year. Some “lucky” winner of the auction paid $29.99 for it but the set will only retail for $19.99, go figure. Anywho, what are your thoughts of the Merida mini-doll after seeing closeup images of it?

LEGOLAND Considering Theme Park in Virginia

November 1, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Currently, there are a total of 6 LEGOLAND theme parks in the world including one here in California and one in Florida. Chris over at Bricks on the Dollar has informed us that Merlin Entertainments is in talks with the local government in Stafford, Virginia of opening up a theme park in the city. The negotiations are still in the early stages but government officials are proposing the location be near the Centreport Parkway area off Interstate 95. The location is approximately 50 miles south of Washington D.C. and about 60 miles north of Richmond, Virginia. Other locations in the United States are also being considered and the company is “nowhere near” a decision.

Sally Ann Wilkinson, head of corporate affairs for Merlin Entertainments, states that they have no comment on the negotiations until their Board and stakeholders are in agreement. County Administrator Anthony Romanello says the county is committed meeting Merlin’s needs, pending the results of their financial analysis in November. He also states that the county could provide something to Merlin by the end of the calendar year as an incentive to opening a park in Stafford.
