LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar (75023) – Day 24

December 24, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

We have now reached the end of the LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar (75023). Let’s see who the “surprise” is.

For the final day of this years Advent Calendar, we have Santa Jango Fett. His torso is of his Mandaorian armor but with more appropriate printing on both the front and back. The front has some fur lining on the top, a sprig of holly on the middle, and some small presents on the belt. The back of the torso also has some fur lining printing as well. Jango’s head is the same one as the regular version of the minifigure. His helmet is also the same blue version although I wish it was red instead to match the outfit. He also has a sack on his back with orange and lime presents represented by 1×2 tiles. Overall, Santa Jango Fett is a nice addition to the Star Wars Advent Calendar line joining Santa Yoda and Santa Darth Maul from the previous years. We’ll have a round-up post tomorrow of the LEGO Star Wars 2013 Advent Calendar and give a grade on it. Thank you for following us the past 24 days. Have a very Merry Christmas!

LEGO Legends of Chima Spinlyn's Cavern (70133)

Last week, we reported on a new LEGO Legends of Chima 2014 minifigure from the Spider tribe named Spinlyn. There were no images of the set that she was in at that time but today, Brickset has found a couple of new sets that we haven’t reported yet, Spinlyn’s Cavern (70133) and Lavertus’ Outland Base (70134). Spinlyn’s Cavern will contain 407 pieces and will include 3 minifigures: Spinlyn, Eris, and Rogan. Lavertus’ Outland Base will have 684 pieces and 4 minifigures: Lavertus, Laval, Blista, and Sparratus. These two sets will be available at the beginning of the year along with all the other Chima sets.

LEGO Mixels Sets Revealed

December 23, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

Images of the new LEGO Mixels sets have emerged via Hoth Bricks. They state the images come from the back of a German catalog. There are three figures that are in three factions: Infernites, Cragsters, and Electroids. We first saw the Mixels at SDCC 2013 but now we get to see the rest of the sets.

The Infernites Clan include Flain (41500), Vulk (41501), and Zorch (41502). The Cragsters Clan consists of Krader (41503), Seismmo (41504), and Shuff (41505). Finally, the Electroids Clan has Teslo (41506), Zaptor (41507), and Volectro (41508). All the Mixels in the clan can also combine together to create a larger version or you can mix and match to create something original.

LEGO Mixels are set to be released in March 2014 along with the animated TV series on Cartoon Network and are tentatively priced at $3.99 each. You can read more of what the Mixels are about on the official press release.
