What Made You Get Interested in LEGO?

June 8, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

I’ve been meaning to write this post for a while now but I have a question for the readers: what made you get interested in LEGO? For me, I had LEGO when I was a kid with a basic building set plus a couple of random themed sets but then video games came into my life and I sort of abandoned it for about two decades or so. Then a few years, my friend was interested in the last wave of LEGO Harry Potter sets as a Christmas gift and just out of curiosity, I purchased the LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon (7965) for myself. After I built the set, I was instantly hooked again which took me out of the “Dark Ages” and the rest is history.

So my question for you my fellow readers is: what made you get into LEGO? To further extend the question, what is your favorite LEGO themes? I would love to hear your guys’ stories whether it be in the comments section below or or my social media pages (Facebook, Twitter, Google+).

Note: The image above was from a few months ago when I hear a loud crash in my room. The sets have since relocated to a different location.

New LEGO Scooby-Doo Villains Unmasked Image

June 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There hasn’t been much news about the LEGO Scooby-Doo sets since the toy fairs from earlier this year but Just2Good on Eurobricks has found a never-seen before image of some of the villains unmasked from the Mystery Mansion (75904) set. This particular set features three villains: the Black Knight, Vampire, and a Ghost. As you can see, the Black Knight and the Ghost has head printing similar to the older Star Wars Stormtroopers with a black head piece and just some face printing. From the looks of it, the Vampire will have a double-sided head in a similar style but it’ll be white instead of black.

If you watched the older Scooby-Doo cartoons, you’ll know that the Black Knight is actually Mr. Wickles and from the image above, you can see the minifigure wearing round glasses just like him. It’s cool to see the sets pay homage to some of the characters from the older cartoon series.

Mummy Museum Mystery (75900) – $14.99
Mystery Plane Adventures (75901) – $19.99
The Mystery Machine (75902) – $29.99
Haunted Lighthouse (75903) – $49.99
Mystery Mansion (75904) – $89.99

LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom Announced

May 28, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Today Warner Bros Home Entertainment announced the latest LEGO DC Comic Super Heroes feature film, Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom!
. The Blu-Ray + DVD + Digital HD Combo pack will be available on August 25.

Mark Hamill will be doing some voices in the movie including Trickster and Sinestro while Troy Baker will again be voicing Batman.

As we know by now, these LEGO animated movies often will come with an exclusive minifigure and I’m 99.9% sure that the Trickser minifigure we saw last year will be included in the combo pack. Check out the full synopsis below as well as the trailer for Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom.

Update: The LEGO Trickster exclusive minifigure has been confirmed to be included with the movie.

“Crime is on the run as the newly formed Justice League keeps Metropolis safe and this makes evil genius Lex Luthor very unhappy. Together with Black Manta, Sinestro and a gang of ruthless recruits, Lex builds his own league and declares them the Legion of Doom. With this super powered team of terror and a plan to attack the top-secret government site, Area 52, can Lex finally be on the verge of victory? Sound the alarm and get ready for the bricks to fly when Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and the rest of the Justice League face off against the world’s greatest Super-Villains! It’s the next all-new original movie from LEGO® and DC Comics.”

LEGO Creator Seasonal Christmas Tree (30286)

Technically it’s not even summer yet but there’s already an image of one of this year’s LEGO Christmas polybags courtesy of Brickset and that is the LEGO Creator Seasonal Christmas Tree (30286). It seems to be an annual tradition that LEGO puts out a Christmas tree during the winter season. It doesn’t look that spectacular with some slight differences to previous years trees but polybag collectors will most likely want this one too.
