August 11, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last week, it was confirmed that LEGO will be releasing sets based on The Simpsons TV show. Springfield Bricks is reporting a user on Reddit has a friend that works in a toy store in the UK and says The Simpsons sets will be available during the winter of this year.

LEGO CUUSOO Back to the Future DeLorean Time Machine (21103) Review

August 10, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

It is finally here! The latest LEGO CUUSOO to be released as an official LEGO set is the Back to the Future DeLorean Time Machine (21103). The set was created by Masashi Togami and Team BTTF and was submitted to CUUSOO on August 1, 2011. It wasn’t until April 28, 2012 that the projected had enough supporters to go to the Summer 2012 Review. During the review stage, the DeLorean was going up against three other popular projects and we all know the outcome of that. In December 2012, LEGO announced that the DeLorean Time Machine would be an official LEGO set. During the 2013 San Diego Comic Con, LEGO released the set on sale early for attendees of the event and on August 1st, the set was officially released to the public which is two years to the day after it was first submitted on CUUSOO. The set contains 401 pieces and retails for $34.99, a $0.09/piece ratio. The box contains five unnumbered bags, one fairly large instruction booklet, and three loose plates.

LEGO Doc Brown’s GMC Value Van By Team BTTF

August 10, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

Last month, Masashi Togami revealed that he and Team BTTF will be releasing more Back to the Future related sets to be added to LEGO CUUSOO in the next few months. Today, Sakuretsu has posted a few preliminary images of Doc Brown’s GMC Value Van. It is the white van that is used to transport the DeLorean Time Machine at the Twin Pines Mall. On the side of the van, it has the wording “DR. E. BROWN ENTERPRISES — 24 HR. SCIENTIFIC SERVICES. The images also show a smaller DeLorean that is able to fit inside the van. Some other things that are shown in the images are Marty and Doc in their radiation suits with Einstein. Marty is holding the video camera that was used to record Doc’s experiment of the temporal displacement. Doc is seen holding plutonium that he took from the Libyan nationalists. Just from seeing the images, I feel that this will be a popular project on CUUSOO when it is submitted later this month.

August 9, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

During the month of August, LEGO is having a promotion for a FREE LEGO Galaxy Squad Mini Mech polybag (30230) when you purchase $50 or more at LEGO stores and on Shop@Home. These polybags were on available for sale at select Walmart stores earlier this year but I didn’t see at my stores. The Mini Mech set contains 28 pieces.

2013 San Diego Comic Con LEGO Super Heroes Minifigures Sold For $4000

August 9, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The news for the 2013 San Diego Comic Con LEGO Super Heroes minifigures doesn’t end even after a month of the end of the event. You may remember that there was some controversy a week back about some of the attendees who insisted that the giveaway was rigged. Well, that didn’t stop a seller by the name of cohens714 on eBay of getting a hold of all four minifigures and having an auction for them and it was sold for $3999.00. What’s interesting is that the seller has relisted a similar auction going with a starting bid of $2999.00. This is somewhat suspicious because either he didn’t really “sell” the minifigures for $4000 and made a fake account to “buy” it out or he has multiples of each of the Super Heroes minifigures. If he does have multiples of the them, how did he get that many? What do you think actually happened and would you put down $4000 to buy these minifigures?

LEGO Legends of Chima Online Open Beta

August 8, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The LEGO Legends of Chima Online game has hit the beta stage and you can sign up to play today. It is free-to-play so you don’t have to worry about spending money to play it at this point. LEGO Legends of Chima Online starts off very similar to your standard online games where you create your character to your liking. After that you get a short tutorial of how to play the game. You’ll be encountering enemies that you fight to get better equipment to upgrade your character. You can either play alone or team up with other players to take down harder enemies. Like many other MMO games out there, you have the ability to add or remove people from your friends list. Another element to the game is that you collect LEGO bricks and studs to create different buildings. The reason for this is that certain buildings allow you to craft better weapons and armors while other buildings you use to boost your skills.

While the game is technically free-to-play, there are also membership plans you can purchase for better gameplay. Benefits of the memberships include: bigger inventory space, additional power slots, trading more items, extra outpost expansions, exclusive items, exclusive buildings, the ability to upgrade buildings to level 5, and Gold Bricks. Gold Bricks are an in-game currency that you can use to purchase a variety of premium in-game items.

If you want to try out the beta of LEGO Legends of Chima Online today, head over to their main page and sign … Continue
