LEGO Jurassic World Sets Officially Announced by Universal

October 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

In a press release (PDF) yesterday by Universal, they have officially announced the licensing partners for Jurassic World and as we already know, The LEGO Group will be one of the partners. There are five sets that are rumored to be in the wave and they will be available in May 2015.

We first heard of the LEGO Jurassic World sets when Chris Pratt, who plays the park keeper Owen, said that he has already seen the look of his LEGO minifigure in an interview. This will be Pratt’s third character to be a LEGO minifigure in two years with Emmet from The LEGO Movie and Star Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy being the first two.

Universal has been very tight-lipped on any leaked information for Jurassic World, including that video of the trailer, so we probably won’t be seeing any images of the LEGO sets any time soon. There’s a chance that we could hear/see something during the 2015 London Toy Fair in January or the New York Toy Fair in February. Stay tuned for more details of the LEGO Jurassic World sets as they become available.

Universal Partnerships & Licensing (UP&L) today announced that The LEGO Group will create original LEGO®products in conjunction with the release of Jurassic World, the long-awaited next installment in Steven Spielberg’s groundbreaking film series that will be released on June 12, 2015. The LEGO Group’s participation rounds out an overall branded toy campaign designed to bring the action, adventure and excitement of the film to audiences around

October 8, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO Fourth Quarter Pick-A-Brick Elements

While I was at the October 2014 Monthly Mini Build Event yesterday, I had a chance to take pictures of some of the new fourth quarter elements on the LEGO Pick-A-Brick Wall. The new elements that have been rotated in will go well with The LEGO Movie and LEGO Legends of Chima themed builds.

For The LEGO Movie parts, we have white inverted 45 slopes, 1×2 gauge tiles, 1×1 trans-red plates, 1×1 purple round plates, 1×1 trans-yellow round plates, and 1×1 orange round plates.

For the Legend of Chima parts, there are 1×2 light bluish gray hinge plates, red jewels, 1×1 dark bluish gray bricks, 1×2 black modified plates with handles, and 2×2 trans-light blue round bricks.

Overall, it’s a nice assortment of elements you can choose from to use for the specified themes or anything in general. Head over to your local LEGO Store to check out the selection as well as the many other elements they have on the Pick-A-Brick Wall. Shout to wall aficionado Genevieve for the hard work.

LEGO Store October 2014 Monthly Mini Build Event Frankenstein Monster (40104) Review

October 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The first Tuesday of the month is here again and that means LEGO Brand Stores held the October 2014 Monthly Mini Build. For this month, it is a Halloween themed build with the Frankenstein Monster (40104). My store was extra busy today considering that it is Double VIP Points month. Also this month is also the release of the Series 12 LEGO Collectible Minifigures (71007) and many people were trying to feel for the ones they want. As you can see from the images, it was pretty packed.

For the mini build itself, the Frankenstein Monster is a very simple build. You start at the legs and build up to the head. There is no special building techniques or any articulation on the model whatsoever. It seemed that many kids enjoyed the model because Halloween is coming up and it’s something they can use to decorate their house with.

It doesn’t say on the November 2014 LEGO Store Calendar but next month’s build will be a cool Rocket on a launching pad (40105).

LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Rocket Raccoon Polybag (5002145) Found

October 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Unannounced polybags seem to be running amuck the past couple of days with another one showing up today. This new polybag is the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Rocket Raccoon (5002145) and it appears that it is from an upcoming Toys R Us promotion. It features Rocket Raccoon in his Guardians of the Galaxy outfit as well as the potted sapling Groot. There is also a small sticker sheet with three Nova Corp logos and three Ravagers logos. The Rocket Raccoon is the same minifigure that was in the San Diego Comic Con 2014 LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Rocket’s Warbird.

There’s no word on how to get the polybag at this time but you can pick it up on eBay. There have been rumors that the Rocket Raccoon polybag (5002145) will come with the Guardians of the Galaxy Blu-Ray/DVD release at TRU. We’ll keep you updated. Thanks to David for the heads up.

LEGO The Goonies 30th Anniversary – The Inferno Achieves 10,000 Supporters

October 7, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

With The Goonies 30th Anniversary coming up in 2015, Lyonblood’s idea of The Inferno has just achieved 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The project is based on One-Eyed Willy’s pirate ship that was inside the cavern.

The project also includes all the Goonies as minifigures with the Inferno. The ship itself has playability features with it such as removing the top deck to reveal some details underneath.

The Inferno now joins the Avengers Helicarrier, the Labrinth Marble Maze, and the F7A Hornet in the third 2014 LEGO Review Stage. Congrats to Lyonblood for the achievement. Now everyone do the Truffle Shuffle!
