LEGO Star Wars TC-4 Confirmed as Star Wars Day Volunteer Giveaway

March 24, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

FBTB has confirmed that the exclusive minifigure for volunteering and displaying a MOC at this week’s Star Wars Days at LEGOLAND California will indeed be the TC-4 minifigure polybag. This particular minifigure has been rumored to been this year’s LEGO May the 4th promotional giveaway but there’s been no confirmation on that yet.

Star Wars Days features many activities such as the 501st & Rebel Legion Droid Hunt and the Miniland Scavenger Hunt. Also be sure to check out all the MOCs that will be displayed at the Fan Gallery on the Model Shop roof. There’s a very slim chance that I may be there this year but I have to see.

LEGO Star Wars Microfighters TIE Interceptor (75031) Review

March 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

For the fourth set of the LEGO Star Wars Microfighters line, we have the TIE Interceptor (75031). Although the ship was seen only at the climax of Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, it had some impact in the movie, especially when they get Admiral Ackbar to say “It’s a trap!” The set contains 92 pieces and retails for $9.99.

LEGO Seasonal Easter Bunny (40086) Review

March 14, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Spring is only a week away that that means Easter is also almost here. Much like LEGO acknowledging Valentine’s Day with the Teddy Bear (40085), they have released a Seasonal Easter Bunny (40086) as well. This set has 106 pieces and also retails for $9.99.

The build of the Easter Bunny is pretty straight-forward. It is built from the bottom up and there are no real surprises. It has similar arms as the Teddy Bear for it to hold the brick-built carrot. Unlike the bear, the legs do not move at all. The only articulation it has is the arms and the ears.

Results

The Easter Bunny isn’t as cute as the Valentine’s Bear but it’s a neat little set. Plus they go well next to each other. It is now available at LEGO Brand Stores as well as on Shop@Home for a limited time. If you do not know, LEGO only sells these types of sets only a few times in a year to match the season. Once the time has passed, you probably can only find them on the secondary market. So if you’re liking the Easter Bunny, don’t hesitate to pick it up pretty soon.

LEGO Minecraft Microworld: The End (21107) Image Revealed

March 14, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO Minecraft Facebook Page has revealed an image of the newest Microworld set in the line, The End (21107). The set contains two levels of tan pieces which represent the End Stone. There are also some Obsidian pillars on the top level as well as the brick-built Ender Dragon. On the bottom level are a few of the neutral humanoid mobs called Endermen. Like with the previous LEGO Minecrafts sets, The End looks to be modular but is mostly open-faced on the bottom level. There’s no word on the number of pieces but it will be available in the summer. The Minecraft team is also working on minifigure-scale Co-Build set but there hasn’t been any updated information for that set since last year.
