LEGO City Space Shuttle (3367) Review

August 18, 2013 / / 0 Comments

When I was younger, I didn’t get a chance to get the older LEGO shuttle sets such as the Space Shuttle Launch (1682) or the Shuttle Launching Crew (6346). As I got older, I was and still am fascinated with space-related things and when I came out of the “Dark Ages”, I saw the LEGO City Space Shuttle (3367) and I knew I had to get it. The set contains 231 pieces and retails for $29.99, a $0.13/piece ratio. The box has two numbered bags, one instruction booklet, one loose 6×16 black baseplate, and one sticker sheet.

August 10, 2013 / / 0 Comments

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.
