LEGO Ideas I Am Your Father Achieves 10,000 Supporters

August 3, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 15 Comments

The I Am Your Father project by szabomate90 is the latest one to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The 1,482 brick project recreates the iconic scene from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back where Darth Vader reveales his parentage to Luke.

It now joins Gilmore Girls – Luke’s Diner, Wonders of Peru, and NF-15B Research Aircraft as the projects to reach the Second 2017 Review Stage.

LEGO has just announced the results of the Third 2016 Review Stage over on the LEGO Ideas blog. The projects that were under consideration include Boat Repair Shop, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. “The Bus” Hulkbuster UCS, LEGO Store Modular Version, Red Dwarf, Landrover 4×4, Volkswagen Golf MK1 GTI, Vintage Tram, 1950’s Diner, Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan, Rey’s Speeder, and The Iron Giant as well as Voltron – Defender of the Universe which was held over from the Second 2016 Review Stage.

And the winner is…

Ship in a Bottle, The Flagship Leviathan

It was also announced that Voltron – Defender of the Universe passed the review as well and I’m really excited for that one as a long time fan of the show.

LEGO is already working on the sets and they will be released sometime in 2018. Check out the video below for the full announcement. Were these the projects that you were rooting for to be chosen?

LEGO Ideas Women of NASA December Release Date Revealed?

July 17, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 6 Comments

Back in February, it was announced that the Women of NASA project was approved to be the next LEGO Ideas set and it looks like we may have a release date for it. During Japan Brickfest, there was a presentation from the LEGO Community Engagement Team and during the talk, some of the latest LEGO Ideas sets including the Saturn V, Old Fishing Store, and Women of NASA were shown off. It also showed the release dates of the sets and the Women of NASA is slated to be coming December 1.

Of course, anything can change and that date could be pushed back so until LEGO officially announces the set, I wouldn’t confirm it just yet. We’re also still waiting for the results of the Third 2016 Review Stage which should be announced any time now as they were close to wrapping it up in their last update.

LEGO The Big Bang Theory SDCC 2017 Exclusive WB Bag

July 14, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

Every year at San Diego Comic Con, there are exclusive collectible bags that Warner Bros. provides to attendees. The bags feature a property of WB and one of the more notable bags for this year is for The Big Bang Theory. As you can see above, the bag has an image of the box art for the LEGO Ideas The Big Bang Theory (21302) set from a few years ago. It’s not as flashy as some of the other SDCC 2017 WB bags but I’ll be trying my best to get this particular one.

LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V (21309) Availability Update

July 12, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

Even though the LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V (21309) was just released last month, it has been out of stock pretty much since then and fans have been starting to worry if it would ever come back. There have been sightings of it at various LEGO Brand Stores, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart but that stock has been limited as well. So what’s the deal on it?

Last month, it was stated through an email from LEGO saying that the Saturn V would be in production through 2018 and we now have an official word from Hasan from LEGO Ideas. In his statement, he has stated

We Are Continuing To Produce More Apollo Saturn V Sets

There was no doubt that the set would continued to be produced but some would rather wait for an official statement from LEGO. As Captain America says, be patient and keep checking in on it at LEGO Stores if you’re near one or on B&N and Walmart online. You can read the full statement below.

It has been over a month since the official launch of the LEGO® Ideas 21309 NASA Apollo Saturn V set and the overwhelming popularity of the iconic rocket has unfortunately meant that some LEGO fans have not yet been able to purchase their set or have had to wait longer than they had hoped.

Unfortunately, rumours and speculation have arisen concerning its availability, which we would like to shortly address.
