LEGO Star Wars DJ (40298) Minifigure Polybag Coming in 2018

December 18, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

This year, LEGO has released some new LEGO Star Wars minifigure polybags that have a connectible stand with them including R3-M2 (40268) and the Scarif Stormtrooper (40176). There is another polybag that will be coming in 2018 for Star Wars: The Last Jedi and it is for Benicio Del Toro’s character, DJ (40298). There’s no word on how to get it at this time but it could be at Toys R Us or at LEGO. It won’t be at LEGO in January because there’s no promotion listed for it on the store calendar. It could be a May the 4th promo or some even suggested it could be a Black VIP Card exclusive. No matter how it will be coming, I’ll let you guys know how to get it.

LEGO LEGOLAND Castle (40306) Revealed

December 18, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

For those who live near LEGOLAND, there’s an exclusive LEGO set that may be coming out soon that you may be interested in. Brickset has uploaded an image of the LEGOLAND Castle (40306) which features a model that is probably based on the LEGOLAND Castle Hotel. Ollie also makes an appearance as it pokes out on one side of the building. The set has 220 pieces and will most likely retail for $9.99 at the shops at LEGOLAND parks at the beginning of the year. It most likely won’t be available on Shop@Home but some LEGO Brand Stores that are near a park like in San Diego may carry it.

LEGO Seasonal Nutcracker 2017 Employee Gift (4002017) Revealed

LEGO Seasonal 2017 Employee Gift (4002017)

Every year if you’re a LEGO employee, whether at The LEGO Group or LEGO Brand Stores, the company gives an exclusive set as a holiday gift. For 2017 being the 40th anniversary of the LEGO Technic theme, this year’s Nutcracker Employee Gift (4002017) has a feature that incorporates that into the build. According to the building instructions, there’s a lever on the back of the Nutcracker to make the arms and mouth move however, it most likely will not be able to crack actual nuts.

If you’re looking to pick up one, there are plenty of sets that are listed on eBay at not so cheap prices. I would suggest waiting a year or two for the prices to drop down just a little but expect to still shell out at least $150 on it.

I know this set has been shown off on social media but I wanted to wait a little longer to post it because some employees, who may be readers, may not have received their sets yet and I didn’t want to spoil the surprise for them.

Putting the Nutcracker together was super fun ?? #Being a kid #Making it count #living it up ??

Two Weeks Left to Get LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon for Black VIP Card

December 17, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There are about two weeks left in the year and for those who are still trying to get the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192), here are some tips for you to potentially get one to get the exclusive Black VIP Card before the end of 2017.

Shop@Home is pretty much out of the question as there has been very low quantities on-hand online for a short period of time. Your best chance to get one is if you live close to a LEGO Brand Store. Either call or visit them and check if their waiting list for the Falcon is close to being done. I’ve have a few reports from readers that say their stores (Palisades Mall for one) have completed their lists and the Falcons are now on a first-come, first-served basis. If they do have some in stock, ask if they can put it on hold and you can hop over there to pick it up. If not, check when their next shipments are and it’s possible there may be some on the trucks. Also you can ask to be put on the waiting list if the stores are still doing them for the next ones that come in.

It’s unfortunate that the Black LEGO VIP Card is only available with a purchase of the UCS Millennium Falcon because there was so much demand and very little quantities for fans, there’s no way that it will pass the reported 30,000 number of cards that are available. Hopefully LEGO will extend the promotion … Continue

New LEGO Ninjago Pods Available at LEGOLAND California

December 16, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO pods that have been released this year seem to be pretty popular and it looks like there will be some more coming soon. A Reddit user has found two more LEGO Ninjago pods that has showed up at LEGOLAND California. These new pods featuring Jay (853758) and Cole (853759) are now in cardboard packaging instead of a polybag like with Kai. THe builds include an armor rack along with their respective weapons.

Usually products that show up at LEGOLAND first will be available later at either LEGO Brand Stores/Shop@Home or other retailers like Toys R Us so we’ll see what happens with these two new Ninjago pods.

LEGO Seasonal Flowers (40187) Official Images

December 15, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has uploaded a new LEGO Seasonal set featuring some Flowers (40187). There are two flowers in this 100 piece set, a red rose with a white vase and a daisy in a red vase. This is a nice little gift set that you could give to a loved one during Valentine’s Day. There’s no price point or release date but I assume it’ll be $9.99 and be available at the beginning of the year.
