All About Bricks is reporting the LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles line will be getting a second wave in 2014. The wave will consist of seven sets and at least three of those will be based on the new movie directed by Jonathan Liebesman and produced by Michael Bay.

The rest of the sets will be based on the hit animated TV show on Nickelodeon. Season 2 will be starting on Saturday, September 28th. There were already six sets that were released late last year/early this year and LEGO plans to add to the TMNT line. Although there’s not much information at this time, you’ll be sure that we will be staying on top of this.

LEGO Juniors 2014 Rumored Set List

All About Bricks is back with some news about the LEGO Juniors theme which makes its return from a 9-year hiatus in 2014. Also known back then as LEGO 4 Plus, the 2014 Juniors sets are reported to be the new name for the Bricks and More theme and is intended to be a theme which that is between Duplo and regular System sets. Also the Juniors sets will have regular minifigures instead of the larger ones that the 4 Plus had.

LEGO Legends of Chima Scorpion & Spider Minifigure First Look

While doing my usual news finding on various LEGO communities, I came across something that many people will find interesting. Eurobricks member Karus has posted the above image of the LEGO Legends of Chima: Sticker Storybook which came from Amazon. The image gives us our very first look at a minifigure from the Scorpion tribe as well as from the Spider tribe. The Scorpion is mostly yellow and black and it looks like it’s wearing an armor piece that uses a simple hinge technique to attach the tail (see below). The head piece is also pretty cool looking with it’s emblem on top of the head and the mandibles in front of the mouth.

If you look towards the background of the cover, you can see a little bit of the minifigure from the Spider tribe. Although it’s not very clear, you can see some of the details for it. It’s brown and it looks like it’s wearing a grass skirt. You can also see it’s fangs on the menacing head piece. The four long legs are attached to the back probably similar to Doc Ock from the Spider-Man set.

My initial impression on these new characters is very good. I really like the look of the Scorpion and am looking forward to picking one it up when it comes out next year. Looking at the rumored 2014 Legends of Chima set list, I would guess the Scorpion will be in the Scorm’s Scorpion Stinger (70132) and/or in the Stinger Duel (70140). The Spider … Continue

Official LEGO Documentary Coming in 2014

Today, Deadline has revealed that The LEGO Group in conjunction with Global Emerging Markets (GEM) will be creating an official feature-length documentary film called Beyond The Brick: A LEGO Brickumentary. They have partnered up with Oscar-winner Daniel Junge (Saving Face) and Oscar-nominated Kief Davidson (Open Heart) to shoot a film to take a deeper look into the company and the impact of the bricks on today’s culture, art, and education. The documentary will also take a look at not only younger builders, but Adult Fans of LEGO (AFOLs), LEGO convention attendees, artists, and famous LEGO fans too. Brendan Kiernan and Justin Moore-Lewy will be producing the documentary and is slated to be released early 2014.

LEGO bricks are everywhere, and this documentary is an examination of their footprint in our global community. The LEGO brick has transcended language, politics, age, race, art, science and technology – all through its ability to draw out the basic human need to create and share. – Jill Wilfert, VP of Licensing and Entertainment for The LEGO Group

A few years ago, there was a very well made short video called AFOL: A Blocumentary that takes a look into the world of a couple of AFOLs from the Pacific Northwest. You can watch that video below.

LEGO NASA’s Missions: Imagine and Build Contest Winners

Back in June, we reported there was a LEGO contest called NASA’s Missions: Imagine and Build happening on ReBrick in conjunction with the space agency.

The winner of the “Imagine Our Future Beyond Earth” contest was the “Sunbeam,” created by Jay Semlis from England. The satellite is used to look at the outer cornea of the sun. There were also two runner up winners including “The ORACOM” by Sergio Parra from the United States which is a Mars spacecraft and the “Asteroid Initiative” by Peter Hollander also from the United States which is used to pick up and move asteroids.

NASA’s associate administrator for education Leland Melvin says, “Our intention was to unleash everyone’s creativity and inspire participants to combine real NASA research with imaginative flights of fancy. Looking at the winning designs, it’s clear we did just that.”

The grand prize winner of the contest received the LEGO CUUSOO Hayabusa (21101) set, signed by the LEGO designer Melody Louise Caddick, recognition and honorable mention on NASA.gov, and a collection of NASA memorabilia including a personalized signed lithograph from Melvin.

There was also another contest called the “Inventing the Future of Flight” to create a prototype of a future aircraft as well as writing a technical paper to explain the model and how it is taking NASA’s ideas and improves on them. The winning model for the younger builders category was the “Flying Extinguisher 4000 Fish Eagle” created by 16 year old William Nodvik from the United States which is a long range supertanker that puts … Continue

More LEGO Seasonal Christmas 2013 Sets Revealed

Huw over on Brickset has just posted images of two more LEGO Seasonal Christmas 2013 sets that will be released later this year, Decorating the Tree (40058) and Santa Sleigh (40059). These images are courtesy of Brickset member Gregori and are from the German LEGO store calendar for October. There’s no details on pricing or availability as of this time but my guess is they are polybags that will probably be given out with a certain purchase amount or sold as store exclusives as nice little stocking stuffers during the holidays.

Set 40058 shows a Christmas tree decorated with lights with presents and toys next to it. There are two children minifigures included, one male and one female, and also a ladder for them to climb. Set 40059 shows Santa riding his sleigh full of presents that is being pulled by a reindeer. There is also a older minifigure with short legs holding a police radio.
