Unannounced LEGO Jurassic World Poster with Shop@Home Orders

May 29, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There have been some reports of shoppers who had placed orders on Shop@Home and they received a LEGO Jurassic World poster included with their order in the mail. We first saw the image of the poster when the first official image of the LEGO Jurassic World theme was revealed back in December.

There’s no mentioning of any requirements to get the poster, whether it was attached to a certain theme or if it had any pricing thresholds. I’m also not sure if it is for Shop@Home only or if LEGO Brand Stores will have it too but judging from previous unannounced promos, I believe this promo will only work online. I’ll try to get confirmation later.

I tried testing my theory by putting some items in the shopping cart including some Jurassic World sets and it didn’t show up in the cart so I think it’s just some bonus freebies that LEGO is throwing in to promote the sets along with the movie release next month. I wouldn’t go as far as saying to buy things for a chance to get the poster because I’m not 100% sure about it either. Let me know in the comments if you have recently placed an order on Shop@Home and have gotten the poster as well.

LEGO Jurassic World Xbox Live & PlayStation Store Pre-Order Bonuses

May 28, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There are now some bonuses when you pre-order the LEGO Jurassic World video game directly for certain systems using their store apps. For PlayStation 3 or the PS4, you can get some characters including Eric and Paul Kirby from Jurassic Park III as well as a vehicle with the Animal Control Vehicle.

For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, there’s a Jurassic Park Trilogy Pack #2 which includes characters like Lex and Tim Murphy and the cruise ship from The Lost World. It’s interesting since there hasn’t been any word on Trilogy Pack #1 yet.

The LEGO Jurassic World video game will be available for all major gaming systems on June 12 which is the same date that the movie will be released in theaters.

LEGO City Toys R Us Truck (7848) Review

May 28, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Since today is Thursday, I decided to do a Throwback Thursday review of a fairly older set. It’s something that close to me since technically I’m currently working for the company part-time. This set is the licensed LEGO City Toy R Us Truck (7848) which was first released back in 2010. The set was a Toys R Us exclusive and sold for $44.99 but I managed to get it at a pretty decent price and I couldn’t pass it up. The set contains 356 pieces and comes with two instruction booklets.

Today Warner Bros Home Entertainment announced the latest LEGO DC Comic Super Heroes feature film, Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom!

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!

The Caterham Super Seven by bricktrix_Carl is now the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. It project comprises of two of the super-lightweight sports cars in yellow and dark green. Another details of the cars is that there is an option to remove the hood to see the engine details.

Overall, the project shows off a very sleek and realistic look to the iconic cars and looks to be a very fun build. The project now joins the Brick-Built Adventure Time Figures has the ones so far to reach 10k supporters in the Second 2015 Review Stage. It’s still very early in this session so I expect to see quite a few more projects reached the milestone in the next few weeks/months.

Labyrinth Marble Maze Announced as Next Official LEGO Ideas Set

May 28, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO Ideas has just announced the results of the Third 2014 LEGO Ideas Review Stage and the next project to become an official set is the Labyrinth Marble Maze by JKBrickworks. As a result, it is the first board game type project to become an official set. As a kid, I remember playing with the original wooden Labyrinth game and this brings back tons of memories. Soon a new generation of kids with get to enjoy this classic game as well.

LEGO is also still considering the Star Citizen F7A Hornet so we could again potentially see two sets becoming official sets from this review stage. As you can see, there were many projects that were worthy of becoming an official LEGO set but alas there could only be one winner (maybe two).

The First 2015 LEGO Review Stage is currently going on and the results of those projects (shown below) are expected to be announced this fall. Around that same time period, more details of The Big bang Theory, Doctor Who, and WALL•E sets will be revealed as well.

LEGO Jurassic World Video Game Achievements Revealed

May 27, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

As we slowly get closer to the release of the LEGO Jurassic World video game, there are more details coming out for it. Xbox Achievements has posted the list of achievements that you will be able to get in the game. The PlayStation version of the game will also have these achievements but in the form of trophies broken by rarity.

If you’re a Jurassic Park fan, you might notice some of the names of the achievements which are short quotes from each of the movies. You can pretty much see which achievements go with each movie in the game as all four movies are included in the overall game. I plan on doing a review of the game as well as a guide on how to get all the items in the game as I’ve had pretty good responses on the previous LEGO games. I might also be streaming LEGO Jurassic World from my PS4 on Twitch if I get my setup completed.
