LEGO Star Wars 2015 Advent Calendar (75097) – Day 1 Review

December 1, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Every year at this time, it’s been a tradition of me doing the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendars. The calendars are pretty special to me as they are one of the first reviews I’ve done on The Brick Fan since getting back into LEGO. This year is no different as I have the new LEGO Star Wars 2015 Advent Calendar (75097). It consists of 292 pieces and retails for $39.99. It is currently sold out at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home. I warned readers to pick it up as soon as possible when it became available in August/September because they tend to sell out by this time.

LEGO Architecture New York City (21028) Review

December 1, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

In 2016, LEGO will be releasing a few more LEGO Architecture sets but with a little change to the format that’s been working for them. For this next wave, a few of the sets will have a skyline format with some recognizable buildings from a particular city.

Some LEGO 2016 City, Creator, and Technic Sets Now Available on Shop@Home

November 30, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It’s technically December 1st on the east coast and that means some new LEGO 2016 sets are now available for purchase on Shop@Home. Some of the sets that are available include sets from various LEGO themes such as City, Creator, and Technic. The two Disney Princess Frozen sets are also available today as well. I believe this is the first time that LEGO has officially released sets for the next year a whole month early. If you’re doing some Christmas shopping, this gives you some more options to choose from.

LEGO Target 2015 Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) Review

November 29, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

About a week ago, Target released the new 2015 LEGO Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) online for purchase individually for $9.99 or you could get it free with certain purchase restrictions but a majority of buyers went with the former route. After a day or two, they seemingly removed it from the website while physical locations don’t even know about it. From what I’m hearing, corporate is pretty upset with it being sold online early or something.

Anyways, people have started receiving their shipments of the box set including me. This is the second box set that Target has released in two years so it could be a trend going forward with them releasing one around this time every year but we’ll see. The packaging is similar with clear windows showing the four minifigures that are included. The design corresponds to the particular theme the minifigure is in which is the same as last year’s themes.

German shopping site Spielzeugschutte has posted official images of a few of the LEGO Star Wars 2016 sets. These include a new Star Wars Rebels set, some new Battle Packs that are based off the recently released Star Wars Battlefront video game as well as Series 3 of the Microfighters sets. Expect the images for the rest of the winter wave sets to come out pretty soon as they’re expected to be released late next month/beginning of the year.

LEGO 2015 Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) Now Available at Target

November 22, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

2015 Target LEGO Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077)

The 2015 LEGO Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) is now available for purchase online at Target. The minifigures that are included in the set are DC Comics Super Heroes Lightning Lad, Ninjago Kai, Legends of Chima Sir Fangar, and a City Scuba Diver. You can see the other two minifigures in my previous post from last year.

The set goes for $9.99 but you can get it for free when you purchase $50 of City, Ninjago, and Super Heroes sets. You can also get free shipping on all orders. It doesn’t look like there’s a limit on the Minifigure Box Sets (5004077) you can get. Also it says LEGO items are excluded, you can use the promo code TOYS at checkout to save $2 on it.

If you’re searching for it online, the item number is 49153007. The store DPCI number is 204-00-1716.

Thanks to Stephen for messaging this in.

Update: It looks like Target figured out their mistake and the TOYS promo code does not work at checkout anymore. Also, they are starting to ship the sets already as I have gotten a FedEx tracking number for my shipment.
