New LEGO Americas Community Manager Announced

May 26, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It was been fairly quiet on the news front but over on the LEGO Ambassador Network, it has been announced that LEGO has found a replacement for the Americas Community Manager position which was previously held by Kevin Hinkle. As you may or may not have known, the position was in the air the past few months as Kevin was moving to another position within The LEGO Group. Starting on July 1st, Paul Striefler will be taking over and you will be able to meet him in some upcoming LEGO conventions.

I am happy to inform you that we have accomplished the very difficult task of finding a suitable candidate to replace Kevin Hinkle as Community Manager for Americas. Although we are sad to say goodbye to Kevin as a team member in AFOL Relations & Programs, we are thrilled that we are able to provide Kevin with a chance to explore new opportunities within The LEGO Group, and even within the LEGO Community Engagement (LCE) Department, ensuring that Kevin will still be a close colleague. As Kevin has already told you through an earlier LAN post, he will move into a new role as Business Integration Manager, using his years’ of experience engaging with and supporting the TFOL and AFOL community to build a stronger collaboration between the LEGO markets, business units and community.

We are very happy to announce that our new Community Manager for Americas is Paul Striefler. Some of you already know Paul as he has been assisting Kevin for more than

May 23, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Continuing with more sales, the LEGO City City Square (60097) is on sale for $131.99, as of this post, which is 31% off the retail price of $189.99. The set is pretty neat and it has some nice building including a small LEGO Store and delivery truck as well as the tram.

The City Square (60097) was released last year so it still has some shelf life left but this is a great price for it especially if you’ve been holding off on it.
