Star Wars Force Friday 2016 Returns in September

February 21, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It appears Force Friday will be a yearly thing as Star Wars: Rogue One will have its own event and there are reports that it is planned for September 30 for this year. The event again will be connected to the upcoming movie being released in December although the date of the event has been pushed back a little from last year’s date.

We already know there will be five LEGO Star Wars sets based on the movie with set numbers:

75152
75153
75154
75155
75156

We also know there will be three Star Wars Buildable Figures with the set numbers:

75119
75120
75121

We’ll most likely see official images of the sets at the Force Friday launch date similar to last year with very heavy embargo rules.

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man vs. The Venon Symbiote (30448) Polybag Found at LEGOLAND Florida

February 15, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last month, we first saw an image of the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Spider-Man vs. The Venon Symbiote (30448) polybag show up online. Fellow reader Joseph H. has recently emailed in letting me know that he has found the polybag at LEGOLAND Florida. I assume this polybag will be more widely available at other retailers later this year and possibly be at Walmart as a stocking stuffer during the holiday season.

Along with this polybag, he has also found the LEGO City Fire Car (30347), the LEGO Nexo Knights The Lava Slinger (30347), and the LEGO Ninjago Kai’s Mini Dragon (30422) there. If you’re searching for these polybags, you may want to check out LEGOLAND Florida or California and Discovery Centers so see if they have any.

LEGO Classic Creative Building Set (10702) Review

February 12, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

At the beginning of the year, LEGO released a new Creative Building Set (10702) to complement their line of Classic sets. Upon looking at the box and the pieces that are included, it reminds me of when I was a kid myself when I just had a box of basic bricks and building random stuff with my dad. Now as a father myself, I get to pass that same concept of building using only our imagination with what is given in the set.
