LEGO House Exclusive Wooden Duck (40501) Revealed

June 2, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Earlier this year, it was reported that the LEGO House Tree of Creativity (4000026) would be retired and a new exclusive set would be taking its place. Fast forward to today, we now know of the set thanks to Brickset which is the Wooden Duck (40501). The building instructions were found uploaded to Customer Service but it looks like they have been quickly taken down.

The set pays homage to the Wooden Duck created by Ole Kirk Christiansen that was released in 1935. Like with other LEGO House exclusives, I don’t see it being available online and will be only available at the LEGO House, unless you have connections or purchase them off the secondary market.

LEGO Technic Powered Up Components to be Sold Individually

May 29, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has announced that you will be able to buy certain LEGO Powered Up components that were found in various Technic sets separately starting on June 1. This allows builders to further enhance their builds without having to invest in a whole set just to get the parts.

A message from Gaute Munch, Director Product Technology (Product owner of Powered UP)

For the past two years we have been in dialog with Ambassadors here on the LAN about Powered Up. The feedback that you have shared has been greatly appreciated. It has been insightful but also pleasure to work and brainstorm with different AFOLs around the world on Powered Up. If you are a member of a Recognized Community, thank you.

Today, we are excited to share the news below with you. We are even more excited to know what your plans are? Are there existing sets you are already excited to modify? Are these going straight into your MOCs? It is almost time for show-and-tell!

Great News on Powered Up Components!

Until now our LEGO® Technic™ Powered Up components have only been available to buy as part of the sets and we know that some of you have been interested in having the electronic components available to be sold separately.

Powered Up components are the hubs, motors, lights, sensors and control handsets that can help builders bring their LEGO models to life. The components can be used to add motorized movement and light features to models, and control them through the Powered UP App.

New LEGO Brick Sketches Sets Revealed

May 21, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Brickset has just revealed a brand new line coming out soon called LEGO Brick Sketches. As you can see from the images, they look very familiar. That is because the designer for these sketches is Chris McVeigh. You may have seen his work a few years ago before he was hired by LEGO and now his idea has became official sets.

As for the LEGO Brick Sketches, there are four sets in the initial wave including Batman (40386), First Order Stormtrooper (40391), The Joker, (40428), and BB-8 (40431). There’s no word on pricing or when they will be available but I’m guessing these are the August 1 summer wave sets.

May 19, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It’s Christmas in the spring as Amazon has the LEGO City 2019 Advent Calendar (60235) on sale for 37% off the retail price. This is the lowest price it has been at in a few months and only second to the deeper sale it had at the beginning of the year. The set has 234 pieces and it has seven minifigures including Santa Claus. Since the box doesn’t really label it for 2019, it can be used in the future as well.

More LEGO Super Mario Sets Found

May 17, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Slovak site Svetmodelov.sk has posted more product listings for upcoming LEGO Super Mario theme. They are loosely translated so they aren’t very accurate. It looks like these are to customize the Mario device to other costumes that he has worn in the franchise. I’m curious to see if Flying Mario is Raccoon Mario or Cape Mario. As of now, we still haven’t seen much out of the theme but hopefully we get some more details soon. It was rumored that LEGO was to reveal more about it during San Diego Comic Con but we’ll see what happens now since SDCC moved to a virtual format for this year.
