New LEGO Reindeer Drives Fans to Frenzy

One of the most talked about things yesterday was the December 2021 LEGO Store Calendar but it wasn’t because of the promotion but for something in the header photo. The image features a brand new LEGO reindeer that is sort of a pastel white color. The most asked question is how to get it and unfortunately, I have no idea.

LEGO has been known to showing off teasers in their marketing such as designer videos, store calendars, and even the LEGO Life magazines. They have also shown off new things in the past that haven’t ever been released before which have disappointed fans at the same time. Perhaps it will be included in an unannounced LEGO Seasonal set that comes out some time in December. At this point, I wouldn’t get your hopes up too much for this white reindeer as it could just be a marketing ploy for people to look at the very dull month of promotions.

LEGO Marvel Eternals Rise of the Domo (76156) Review

In my last review of the LEGO Marvel Eternals sets, we check out the largest set in the wave with Rise of the Domo (76156). It has 1,040 pieces and retail for $89.99. Since the movie has been out for a few weeks now, there may be some spoilers.

LEGO Marvel Eternals Rise of the Domo (76156)


Minifigures

The set has six minifigures which are Phastos, Makkari, Druig, Sersi, Thena, and Ikaris. Phastos has on the purple outfit with some intricate patterns on both sides of the torso and legs. His double-sided head shows him with a stern look on one side and an angry expression on the other.

LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) Designer Video

I’m not sure why LEGO likes to do this but they have released the designer video for the LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) after it has sold out. LEGO designer Henrik Andersen talks about the details that go into this massive set. There are also Easter eggs in the set but they are a secret for fans to find out when they build it.

LEGO has already announced that the LEGO Shop won’t have stock until after the holidays. If you have a LEGO Brand Store or even LEGOLAND Discover Centers around you, you may want to check to see if they still have some left. I’ve had reports that there are some stores that still has inventory.

LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) Sold Out Until After Holidays

In less than a day here in the US, the LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) sold out and that also essentially kills the promotion for Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483). It wasn’t surprising that the set would be that popular as it generated a lot of buzz when it was first announced earlier this month and it did go up a few minutes early before midnight on Friday. As a result of AT-AT selling out, the price on it has jumped 1.5x on the secondary market. LEGO Customer Service has posted a message saying that there won’t be anymore stock until after the holiday season.

The 75313 Star Wars™ AT-AT™ is currently out of stock and we don’t expect to get more until after the holidays. We’re sorry about this disturbance in the Force.

You can always use the “Notify When in Stock” feature on the AT-AT product page to let LEGO email you when it goes back up. Your best bet is to use the “Check Store Stock” to see if there are any LEGO Stores near you that has it but I’m betting that pretty much every store is out of stock as well.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) First Look

Every year around Chinese New Year, LEGO likes to do a promotional set for the Chinese Zodiac animals and the Year of the Tiger (40491) has been revealed on LEGO’s Declaration of Conformity. This will be the 8th animal from the series which started all the way back in 2015 with the Year of the Sheep (40148). If you want to be technical, the Year of the Snake (10250) was released back in 2013 but it was a different style than these ones. Also, the first couple of sets were Asia exclusives so it was a bit harder to get than in recent years. The Year of the Tiger (40491) will most likely be part of a promotion in late January or some time in February.

Back in July, there were major floods in Europe and one of those countries that was affected included Germany. Today the LEGO Foundation has announced that they will be donating 7.1 million Danish Kroner (960,000 Euros) to the German Red Cross in efforts to help support reconstruction of schools and building a family aid center. This is LEGO’s ongoing humanitarian contributions to help crises around the world.

The LEGO Group and the LEGO Foundation announce a 960k EUR grant to support children and families affected by the disastrous flooding in Germany

Billund, November 23rd, 2021: People in flood-affected areas in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, are still struggling with rebuilding their lives three months after the flooding. “The water is gone, but the need for relief efforts and aid continues unabated,” says Karen Pascha-Gladyshev, Managing Director of LEGO GmbH, referring to the flood disaster in July, which destroyed several German villages entirely.

The LEGO Group and the LEGO Foundation have now announced a donation of 7.1 million Danish Kroner (DKK) (960,000 Euros) granted to the German Red Cross (DRK) for the reconstruction of ten kindergartens and the build-up of a family aid center. “We care for the well-being of children around the world and hope that this contribution will help children and families locally in the affected areas of North-Rhine Westphalia,” says Pascha-Gladyshev.

“The initial aid supplied right after the flood was important, in the truest sense of the word, essential for survival,” explains Axel Fielen, chairman of the DRK District Chapter of Aachen e.V. “Now it is

LEGO VIP 1950’s Retro Tin (5007016) Promo Extended to November 25

To nobody’s surprise, the LEGO VIP 1950’s Retro Tin (5007016) promotion has been extended on the LEGO Shop. It will now run until November 25, while supplies last, and they will last with the high cost threshold of $250. Coupled with the lack of items available to buy, I wouldn’t be surprised LEGO decides to run it through Cyber Monday just to get rid of them. Personally, I would just save your money until Cyber Monday to get the Fleece Blanket which is a more practical item that you can use.

LEGO Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (10274) Available on Amazon – November 2021

Today is the opening day of Ghostbusters: Afterlife and if you didn’t know LEGO has a new version of the Ecto-1 for the movie. It was actually released last year in anticipation of the movie being out in July 2020 but it got delayed a few times.

Due to the popularity of many larger sets on the LEGO Shop, it is temporarily out of stock but fortunately, you can still place your orders on Amazon at retail price. The listing does say it’ll it will be in stock soon and delivery will be between November 21-29. With the movie coming out, I’m sure that fans will be wanting to get this iconic car in a larger scale model and it is easily one of the best representations of it.

Target has released a sneak peek at what we can expect from the upcoming LEGO Collection x Target this December. The limited time collection starts on December 4 online and in-stores and it will have a LEGO brick-inspired collection designed to be playful, spark creativity, and fill your holiday season with joy.

The collection ranges from pet items, houseware, gift bags, bedding, clothing, decorative pillows, carry bags, and even the widely popular Astronaut Minifigure plushies. These plushies come in pink, blue, red, and white. If you watched The LEGO Movie 2, you would know that most of them were in Benny’s Space Squad (70841) and they were Benny (blue), Lenny (pink), and Jenny (white). The plushes will retail for $14.99 each. Other plushies include the Gingerbread Man and Santa which also sells for the same price.

In addition, there are some 500 piece puzzles from Chronicle Books which include Colorful Minifigures, Fun in Space, and Playful Bricks. These puzzles will go for $12.99 each. There’s even some life-sized LEGO items such as the Snow Character Building Kit and the Snow & Sand Building Kit that go for $30 each. Another neat item is the kids Benny’s Crossbody Handbag that sells for $25.

Of course, there are some older LEGO Seasonal sets available if you weren’t able to pick them up previously or have just recently entered the hobby.

Spider-Man: No Way Home Official Trailer

The official trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home just dropped and there were some nice surprises if you don’t follow the movie leaks. They’ve finally shown off most of the Sinister Six which includes Doctor Octopus, Electro, and Sandman as well as the Green Goblin and the Lizard. Unfortunately, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield doesn’t make an appearance but there was the Amazing Spider-Man 2 reference where MJ is falling. Perhaps this is where Garfield comes in to save her but they’ve just saving that for the movie itself.

Anyways, there is one LEGO set that will be based on the movie which is the Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop (76185). Currently is on backorder status but it will ship in 60 days. If you haven’t picked it up yet, I suggest doing so before the movie comes out on December 17 or else it might be hard to after after that due to fans wanting some merchandise for No Way Home. We also get a quick glimpse at the black and gold suit which is also in LEGO minifigure form in Spider-Man’s Drone Duel (76195).

New LEGO Star Wars 2022 Revealed on LEGO Shop

LEGO has revealed two new LEGO Star Wars sets on the LEGO Shop. If you’re a Star Wars fan, you may have noticed that the Battle Packs took a short hiatus this year but they will be back in 2022. The other set is the Hoth AT-ST (75322) which was very briefly seen in The Empire Strikes Back which makes me question why LEGO produced this one since it was only on screen for two seconds.

Snowtrooper Battle Pack (75320) – $19.99/105 pieces

Let young fans build their own army and recreate Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back action with the Snowtrooper Battle Pack (75320). It features 4 LEGO® minifigures with assorted blaster weapons, a buildable Imperial Hoth speeder bike, stud-shooting E-Web heavy repeating blaster and snow trench with extra ammunition. This building toy makes an awesome little gift or reward for creative kids aged 6 and up, to boost their collection of Snowtroopers and add new play possibilities to their other LEGO Star Wars™ sets.


Hoth AT-ST (75322) – $49.99/586 pieces

Youngsters can recreate dramatic Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back action with the first-ever LEGO® brick-built model of the AT-ST from the Battle of Hoth (75322). It has an opening hatch and roof for access to the minifigure cockpit, a wheel-operated rotating head, 2 spring-loaded shooters and posable legs. A cool gift for trend-setting kids aged 9 and up, this building toy also features 3 LEGO Star Wars™ minifigures, including Chewbacca with snow decoration, plus an Imperial Probe Droid LEGO figure, to inspire creative

LEGO Marvel 2022 Product Details

LEGO Back to the Future DeLorean New Rumors for 2022

Earlier this year, there was a rumor of the LEGO Creator Back to the Future DeLorean that was supposed to be released in the fall but that eventually turned out to be the LEGO Pickup Truck (10290). There are now new rumors from Promobricks that will instead be coming in April 2022. Reported to cost 169.99€, the DeLorean will have set number 10300 and will be exclusive to LEGO until July where it’ll be available elsewhere.

Furthermore, the details for the DeLorean include it being able to change from the original look from the first movie to the hover conversion design from 2015 with the folding wheels. Of course, you’ll also have the other iconic details of the DeLorean such as the OUTATIME license plate and the flux capacitor. Marty’s Mattel hoverboard is also said to be included. We’ll see if minifigures of Marty and Doc Brown are included but it’ll be a shame if they aren’t.

As always, these are purely rumors until LEGO announces them or images show up at an online shop.

LEGO Titanic (10294) Designer Video

The LEGO Titanic (10294) was one of the more popular releases this month and LEGO has recently released the designer video for the set. LEGO Designer Mike Psiaki talks about some of the details on one of the most famous ships in history. Also joining in the video is Southampton SeaCity Museum’s Andrew Skinner who goes into more depth about the ship.

Currently, the set is temporarily out of stock but you may have some luck in stores although it’s not very likely. From what I’ve been hearing, LEGO has completely sold out of it for now and there’s no word on when it will be restocking. It is now selling at 35%-40% above retail price on the secondary market.

LEGO The Brick-Changer Float Returns to Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Back in June, LEGO revealed the first prototype LEGO brick made from recycled plastic. The new brick uses PET plastic that used discarded bottles and it took over three years for it to meet their quality, safety and play requirements. It’ll still be a while before we see the recycled bricks in sets but it’ll make a huge impact on the environment when they start rolling out.

LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483) Confirmed as GWP for UCS AT-AT (75313)

LEGO has confirmed that the LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483) will be a gift-with-purchase set when you buy the UCS AT-AT (75313). According to the post, the 173 piece set will be available from November 26 to December 25, while supplies last but we’re pretty sure that the AT-AT will sell out quickly.

Some Star Wars fans have questioned why it is Luke’s lightsaber and not Anakin’s lightsaber. Technically, it’s both correct since this version of it is Anakin’s second lightsaber which was later recovered by Obi-Wan after their duel on Mustafar and passed on to Luke.

BrickLink Designer Program Brickwest Studios Moved to Round 3

Round 2 of the BrickLink Designer Program is set to begin crowdfunding in exactly a week but there has been a change to a project that you could’ve supported. Brickwest Studios was set to be part of the round 2 lineup but due to the tragedy on the Rust movie set a few weeks ago, BrickLink has decided to move it to Round 3 instead out of respect to everyone affected. Taking its place is Venetian Houses which will be selling for $289.99/€244.99. You can read BrickLink’s official statement below.

As you might have heard, there has been a recent tragic incident on the movie set of Rust. Due to this tragedy, we have decided to move Brick West Studios to Round 3 and move Venetian Houses in to Round 2 to take its place.

We are doing this out of respect for people affected by the recent tragedy on the movie set of Rust. We didn’t want to draw any unintended and inappropriate association between the fan design and the tragedy at this difficult time.

Venetian Houses will sell for USD 289.99/ EUR 244,99.

We communicated this to the fan designers affected by this last week. I want to say a warm thank you to them for their understanding!

LEGO Marvel Eternals In Arishem’s Shadow (76155) Review

LEGO Marvel Eternals In Arishem’s Shadow (76155)

Chugging along with our reviews of the LEGO Marvel Eternals sets, we now have In Arishem’s Shadow (76155) to check out. The set has 493 pieced and retails for $59.99.

Minifigures

There are four minifigures in this set, Ajak, Kingo, Ikaris, and Sersi. Ajak has on a blue outfit with some metallic gold robe printing going down the torso into the legs. She has a double-sided head with a smile on one side and an angry expression on the other. Her accessory is sort of a naginata.

Kingo has on a purple outfit with the circular designs that all the other Eternals have. He also has a double-sided head with a smile on one side and a questioning expression on the other. His accessories include a pair of trans-orange Power Blasts.

Ikaris has been seen before in the Eternals’ Aerial Assault (76145) and the design of his outfit is exactly the same as in the other set. Again, I do like the striking metallic gold details against the blue on both sides of the torso and legs. His double-sided head shows him with a smile on one side and an angry expression on the other.

At COP26 (UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties), key sustainability influencers and decision makers will come together in Glasgow to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. It’s hoped that the LEGO building instructions, which will be handed over to policy makers at the event, will help remind leaders to place children at the forefront of

LEGO Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (10299) Rumored for 2022

It looks like we could be seeing another LEGO football stadium coming in 2022 with the home of Real Madrid, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (10299). It is said to be priced at $349.99 and will come with a gift-with-purchase set 40541. It looks like a new stadium set will be an annual thing since the Old Trafford – Manchester United (10272) was released back in 2020 and Camp Nou – FC Barcelona (10284) last month.

Currently Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is under renovation that is expected to be completed in 2022 which will have the completed look shown above. It is unsure if LEGO will be using the new stadium look or the original look at this time. LEGO does their production planning years in advance so it’s possible that they’ve had details of the new look to create this set.

LEGO Ninjago – Fate of Cole’s Character Announced

Last year, the voice actor for LEGO Ninjago’s Cole, Kirby Morrow, passed away suddenly and the LEGO Ninjago team had to figure out what to do with the character. They had four options on what to with Cole and they have given a reasoning on why they did it.

1. Retire Cole as a character.
2: Use existing dialogue from all available Ninjago content since 2011 to keep Kirby’s performance in the show.
3: Come up with a story reason that Cole wouldn’t speak.
4: Recast.

Ultimately, the team went with a recast of the character with Andrew Francis. He has previously done work on Ninjago for other characters such as Shade, Beta Jay 137, and Morro. You will be able to hear Andrew as Cole in a series of short films in early 2022.

Dear Ninjago fans

It’s about time we talk about this:

When Kirby was first cast as Cole, it was a matter of finding a voice that fit the character which was written by the Hageman brothers. It wasn’t a hard choice to make as Kirby hit everything, we wanted right out of the gate … maybe he had some guidance from voice director Michael Donovan, and if so, well done Michael!

But what we received to base our casting decision on was just perfect. From then on it became a matter of writing a character that fit the voice. Any animation which has been done on Cole since then has been based on Kirby’s performance. He became instrumental to the development

Upcoming LEGO Harry Potter Promotions Removed from October 2021 Store Calendar

The original LEGO October 2021 Store Calendar came out late last month and there were some pretty cool LEGO Harry Potter promotions that were supposed to happen later this month but it looks like things have changed. The updated store calendar has removed the Hogwarts Gryffindor Dorms (40452) and Hermione’s Study Desk (30392) which were supposed to run from October 25 through November 7.

There’s no word yet on why they have been removed, at least for the US, and I’m waiting to hear back for a response from LEGO. It’s possible that the global supply chain disruption may have impacted the shipment of those promos.

LEGO DC Batman Batmobile Tumbler (76240) Review

A few weeks ago, it was revealed that LEGO will be releasing a new LEGO DC Batman Batmobile Tumbler (76240) which has gone through a number of iterations in the past. The most recent version was 76023 from 2014 which included some pretty exclusive minifigures. The 2021 version of the Tumbler will be released on November 1 and will be priced at $229.99. This is a price increase of $30 from the previous version but it also has an additional 180 pieces.


Box

The box uses the newer 18+ branding with the all black and just featuring the Tumbler and this is one of the few sets that it works well on. The back of the box gives a look at the vehicle on the display stand along with the plaque.

The contents of it include 18 bags that are number to 11. The instructions are packaged inside a cardboard sleeve alongside the two sticker sheets. Unfortunately, the single sticker was crushed during shipping but it was fine after it was applied.

The front of the instructions gives a little insight on the design process of the Tumbler. LEGO Creative Lead Jesper Nielsen also chimes in on some of the changes from the previous version. LEGO Graphic Designer Adam Corbally was responsible for the graphic details on the minifigures, stickers, and the printed elements.

LEGO to Remove Gender Bias and Harmful Stereotypes from Products and Marketing

Yesterday was the United Nations International Day of the Girl and LEGO has announced that they are committed to making LEGO play more inclusive and ensuring that children’s creative ambitions are not limited by gender stereotypes. This also marks the launch of a new LEGO campaign called Ready for Girls which celebrates girls who rebuild the world through creative problem solving. There have been articles put yesterday that are misconstruing what the campaign is about and say that this is the end of the LEGO Friends line. LEGO has released a statement about that on the Ambassador Network.

LEGO Friends isn’t going anywhere. Next year’s LEGO Friends portfolio will have the most male figures we have had in our assortment to date. As well as gender, we are also increasing the variety in our LEGO Friends characters with more older and younger characters (including the microdoll).

We are also looking into representation for our Minifigures. Currently we have a larger proportion of male minifigures across the portfolio, but we remain committed to increase the number of female characters as we’re fully aware of how important it is to ensure children are able to reflect themselves in the toys they play with.

The LEGO Friends line celebrates their 10th year anniversary next year which is one of the few original IPs in LEGO’s evergreen portfolio. I’m sure LEGO will be doing something to celebrate that while keeping with their promise of making LEGO play more inclusive.

Girls are ready to overcome gender norms but society continues to

Global Supply Chain Disruption May Impact Holiday Shopping

If you’re planning on waiting to do holiday shopping this year, you may want to get your shopping in early. There is currently a global supply chain disruption and experts say there might not be much on store shelves this holiday season. The LEGO Shop doesn’t seem to have much inventory issues except for a few sets that went on backorder but orders usually ship in a week or so.

Retail store shelves may have problems as some of the larger chains don’t seem to have much stocked. Here in San Diego, there are a few Walmart and Target stores around here that are out of certain sets which can be rectified on the LEGO Shop but you don’t get the instant gratification of getting the items in-hand.

Now would be the perfect time to get your shopping done on the LEGO Shop since they have a double VIP points promotion until the end of October 17. Double points also work on pre-orders so it would work on the newly revealed The Batman sets.

LEGO Marvel Mech Sets Rumored for 2022

Wolverine Mech (76202) – $9.99
Iron Man Mech (76203) – $9.99
Black Panther Mech (76204) – $9.99

If these rumors are true, it marks the return of a fan favorite character in Wolverine. There have been three Wolverine minifigures in the past with the last one being four years ago from the Mighty Micros sets. If you remember from a few months back, I reported that the packaging for the LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigures (71031) may have put a teaser for Wolverine’s return and it looks like it may be confirmed.

THE GRANDEST SHIP IN HISTORY JOINS THE LEGO® FAMILY AS LEGO TITANIC IS UNVEILED

7 OCTOBER 2021: The LEGO Group has revealed an authentic replica of the most famous ship of all time, the RMS Titanic. For the first time, fans can now recreate the luxury liner in detailed LEGO® brick form, 110 years since it was launched in Belfast in 1911.

The LEGO Titanic is one of the longest and largest LEGO models to date, made up of 9,090 pieces, making it a truly immersive building challenge for LEGO fans and budding historians alike.

As well as its sheer size, the Titanic was known for its unrivaled grandeur, which has been faithfully captured in the set. Beneath the unmistakable exterior of the LEGO Titanic, there are several interior rooms to explore including the First-Class grand staircase which spans six decks and the Jacobean-style dining saloon which was located on the ship’s D deck.

The Titanic was also renowned for its unparalleled speed, outclassing other ships of the era, and in the lower decks, fans will find a replica of the state-of-the-art engine room.

It is said that it will retail for $29.99 and include three Dark Troopers and might include Luke Skywalker as well. Since it’s a battle pack, there should be some sort of small build in it as well but it’s hard to say what it is because they really have nothing if watched the scene. I’m sure LEGO will throw in some turrets to get the parts in. If this battle pack is true, who’s ready to have an army of Luke Skywalkers?

LEGO Ninjago Seabound Official Trailer

LEGO has released the official trailer for the upcoming LEGO Ninjago season, Seabound. This season’s main storyline focuses on Nya who has some issues with her elemental powers. There are some new LEGO Ninjago sets that have already been released to coincide with the upcoming episodes.

Oh no! Something has happened to Nya’s elemental powers! She needs your help to figure out what went wrong. Let’s go – we don’t have much time!

When Nya and the other ninja realize it might have something to do with a mysterious recurring energy signal, her mom, Maya, P.I.X.A.L., Zane, Lloyd and Jay, go to the deepest part of the Endless Sea in search of answers. Hop on board their shiny new under-water ship, the Hydro-Bounty. It’s time to get this mission started!

When the ninja run into the Prince Kalmaar, the evil Prince of Merlopia, things go from bad to worse. He already has one amulet, but if he gets his hands on both the Storm and Wave amulets, he could unleash the deadly sea-serpent, Wojira. That would not be good for NINJAGO® City!

Just like her mother before her, Nya is the Master of Water, but without the full force of her powers, how will she overcome the two villains of the deep-sea and save NINJAGO? Join the crew on their epic Seabound adventure to find out. It just takes some courage, sacrifice and a little help from your friends.

LEGO Bricktober (2021?) Sets Hitting Toys R Us Canada

LEGO Games Logo Update and Rumored Overwatch Set Coming Soon

LEGO has updated the logo for their LEGO Games subtheme and there are rumors that Overwatch may be part of this gaming umbrella. It is reported that LEGO Games will become it’s own theme and will include everything that is related to gaming from various video games to the Bits N’ Bricks podcasts. LEGO could just put various game related sets under the general LEGO Games theme without actually having a dedicated theme for them which is a smart move.

On to the Overwatch rumors, it has been reported that there could be a LEGO Overwatch set 76980 coming in November featuring the Null Sector Titan. If you follow Overwatch lore, the Titan was part of the Omnic Crisis at the Paris attack. The set is rumored to have 901 pieces and priced at 79.99€.

LEGO Rebuild the World Celebrates Problem Solving

LEGO has launched a new iteration to their Rebuild the World campaign which celebrates problem solving. In a newly released film, it shows a Knight trying to cross a bridge but fails to until the town comes together to figure out a way across. Be sure to keep a close eye around the 0:42 mark where you can spot an Easter egg that fans really want in LEGO form.

New LEGO® campaign shows how creative problem solving can reunite and Rebuild the World

Billund, September 20th, 2021 – The LEGO Group has launched a playful new iteration to its global Rebuild the World brand campaign. Now in its third year, the 2021 Rebuild the World campaign celebrates children as the masters of creative problem solving and shows what can be achieved when people work together to overcome differences or challenges.

The main film is centered on the story of a Knight whose attempts to cross a river to see a friendly bear keep failing. Seeing the Knight’s dilemma, a whole town comes together and pools their varied skills, perspectives and talents to find a way to reunite the friends. As the Knight finally conquers the river crossing, the film playfully reveals how the story and the solution to the challenge have been imaginatively conceived by a group of children building, unbuilding and rebuilding through LEGO® play.

The LEGO System in Play has long been the ultimate platform for creative problem solving. Just as the children in this campaign come together to build and test different solutions,

LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings Movie to Set Comparison

It’s been a while but I’m back with my next installment of movie to LEGO set comparisons and this time it is for Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. It already has been a few weeks since the movie came out so if you still haven’t seen it yet, there will be some spoilers. I will not be including the Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454) polybag as it is just a promo set.


Escape from The Ten Rings (76176)

This set is based towards the middle of the movie where Shang-Chi, Katy, and Xialing have been captured by Wenwu and locked in the dungeons and find Trevor Slattery along with Morris. They eventually escape and get to the parking lot and steal Razor Fist’s custom BMW. The set features a yellow car while in the movie, it has more of a blue/purple color. Although the movie does have a motorcycle chase, it did not have Wenwu or Razor Fist giving chase. Lastly, there were no turrets shown either. Shang-Chi and Katy also didn’t get their dragon scale armor until the climax of the movie.

I feel that LEGO was just trying to fit a majority of the main characters into a set and it worked to an extent. I wish Shang-Chi and Katy still had their casual outfits while Wenwu had his white shirt. Obviously, Trevor couldn’t be a minifigure because he was a surprise in the movie and didn’t want to spoil that. Xialing had to be split off for the … Continue

LEGO Toys R Us Bricktober 2021 Sets Revealed

Toys R Us Singapore has revealed three of the four LEGO Bricktober 2021 sets. As we know by now, the Bricktober sets are exclusive to Toys R Us and the Asian market is the only place that has them as promotional sets. The sets will be free with purchases of $69 and they feature fairy tales depicted in microscale builds on top of a book cover.

There’s no word if these sets will be outside of the APAC region since they look like really nice sets that many fans would like to have. Note that these are promotional sets and do not fall under the regional exclusives tag which are typical of these kinds of sets.

Hansel and Gretel – 9/24 – 10/7
Jack and the Beanstalk – 10/8 – 10/15

LEGO Japan Teases Bricktober 2021 Sets

LEGO Japan has released a teaser for what could be the upcoming LEGO Bricktober 2021 sets. The video shows a brick-built book with the caption “once upon a time, somewhere.” As we know by now, the Bricktober promotions have mainly been centered in the Asian markets in the month of October. North America used to have them at Toys R Us but there’s been nothing here ever since the toy store chain shut down a few years ago in the US. LEGO Stores and the LEGO Shop usually don’t have anything going on for Bricktober which is a shame since there’s no alternative to getting them besides the secondary market or if you have connections.

It is said to have 105 pieces and will include three Imperial Snowtroopers and one Imperial Scout Trooper.

LEGO Monkie Kid Continuing Through 2023

A few days ago, LEGO Vice President of Design Matthew Ashton did a Q&A on Instagram and he listed off some themes he has been put in charge of for 2023 and some of them may surprise you. As VP of Design, he has his hands full for quite a few product lines for 2023 which include City, Friends, Creator, Classic, Technic, Speed Champions, Monkie Kid, Ninjago, Collectible Minifigures, and DOTS.

What’s most interesting is that Monkie Kid will continue releasing products for the next few years. Although Monkie Kid is a very unique theme that caters mostly to the Asian market, I’m not really sure if it’s that popular in the west. They’ve recently announced that the show will finally be available in the US through Amazon Kids+ but it seems quite late since a lot of people have been waiting over a year to watch it and the hype for the theme has substantially cooled down. Original IPs tend to do well with LEGO and they usually run for about two years but if Monkie Kid extends to 2023, that’ll be four years which makes it one of the longer running ones and that isn’t a bad thing.

LEGO x adidas NBA Shirts Revealed

adidas Philippines has released a new line of NBA t-shirts featuring some NBA stars as LEGO minifigures. These shirts show James Harden, Trae Young, Donovan Mitchell, and Damian Lillard with their respective logos. The shirts are a continuation of LEGO’s multi-year partnership with adidas to create products geared towards sports and active lifestyles. What’s interesting is that the NBA is now also somewhat involved and we haven’t seen any LEGO NBA products since 2003. It’s a long shot but I hope we will see some NBA licensed products even though they can only feature athletes that have signed with adidas.

It was also stated in the press release that a new line of LEGO Monkie Kid sets will be available later this fall.

Obviously, this is sort of a misstep from LEGO as the show that many have been waiting to watch will now be behind a paywall. For a short while, the episodes were up on YouTube in Cantonese, albiet illegally, but at least I was able to watch the first season without issues.

LEGO Creator 2022 Rumored Sets

It’s that time where information about next year’s LEGO sets start to come out and Promobricks has the scoop on what we could be seeing for the LEGO Creator 2022 sets. It looks like we’ll get the usual small vehicles and mechs as well as various creatures and animals but there are some new ideas that we haven’t seen before as well as something from the past.

LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales Official Trailer

Star Wars has released the official trailer for the upcoming Disney+ LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales. The show was announced last month and it takes place after Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker at Darth Vader’s Castle where his servant Vaneé tells three stories that are linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains in the Star Wars Universe. The show will air on Disney+ starting on October 1.

After the events of “The Rise of Skywalker,” Poe and BB-8 must make an emergency landing on the volcanic planet Mustafar where they meet the greedy and conniving Graballa the Hutt who has purchased Darth Vader’s castle and is renovating it into the galaxy’s first all-inclusive Sith-inspired luxury hotel. While waiting for his X-wing to be repaired, Poe, BB-8, Graballa, and Dean (a plucky and courageous young boy who works as Graballa’s mechanic) venture deep into the mysterious castle with Vader’s loyal servant, Vaneé. Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures our heroes deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges. With the help of Dean, Poe and BB-8 will have to face their fears, stop an ancient evil from rising, and escape to make it back to their friends.

Last Day for LEGO Ideas Sailboat Adventure (40487) Promotion

Today is the last day for the LEGO Ideas Sailboat Adventure (40487) promotion on the LEGO Shop. You can get it for free with a $200 purchase.

LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Icons Collectors’ Edition (76391) Release Delayed in North America

The LEGO Harry Potter Hogwarts Icons Collectors’ Edition (76391) was slated to be released on September 2, but LEGO has announced that the set will be delayed in North America. Due to a shipping delay, LEGO will instead open up pre-orders for it on September 2 and it will be available starting on September 15. The rest of the world will have a normal release next Thursday. We’re already used to delayed releases here in North America so the being released two weeks after isn’t really a big deal to some.

The LEGO Harry Potter™ Hogwarts™ Icons Collectors’ Edition will now launch on September 15th in the US, Canada, and Mexico, rather than September 2nd as originally planned due to a shipping delay in the US. The set will be available for online only pre-order at LEGO.com beginning September 2nd. The product will be available in LEGO Retail stores on September 15th.

Spider-Man: Now Way Home Teaser Trailer

The official teaser trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home just dropped and it might be one of the best trailers I’ve seen in a long time. You may have already seen the leaked footage yesterday but we finally get it in high definition and it makes me more hyped for the movie.

The other two sets are inspired from the first two films but there is one set that uses Spider-Man’s new black and gold suit which is the Spider-Man’s Drone Duel (76195).

LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454) Review

LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454)

Earlier this month, LEGO launched the promotion for the LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454) polybag and in less than a day, the promo ran out of stock on the LEGO Shop. I finally got my order in the mail and here’s a quick look at the polybag.

The Shang-Chi minifigure is same one as in the other two sets in the wave which includes the Escape from The Ten Rings (76176) and Battle at the Ancient Village (76177). He wears a red outfit with black accents on both sides of the torso while the legs are plain black. Some arm printing would’ve been nice but it’s pretty accurate to the on-screen version. He has a pearl-gold staff as an accessory. Surprisingly, he doesn’t have any rings included.

LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454)

LEGO Marvel Shang-Chi and The Great Protector (30454)

He does have a double-sided head but it’s the usual expressions we’ve seen before with the stern and angry expressions. Also the flesh tone is different from previous minifigures that featured Asian actors. Previously, LEGO used nougat colored parts for Asian characters. LEGO has released a statement about this:

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us on this matter. Representation in toys is very important and we know the big impact that play has on children. Children are our heroes and we want them to feel both represented and empowered. We are actively looking at ways where we can better represent everyone in our minifigure designs.

In working on representation we are not alone, we work closely with our IP partners to find the

LEGO Build & Talk Adventures Focuses on Online Safety and Privacy

LEGO has launched a new story-style adventure to help families talk about online safety and privacy. Their Build & Talk series helps parents give conversation with kids about online topics and this latest one focuses on online privacy and safe sharing.

The LEGO Group launches new story-style adventure to help families talk about online safety and privacy.

The LEGO Group has expanded its range of tools designed to help families have conversations about digital safety, privacy and wellbeing, after new research found only 1 in 6 parents said their child had confided in them when something bad happened online (1).

The LEGO Group’s ‘Build & Talk’ series helps parents and caregivers have meaningful conversations around challenging yet important online topics with children, aged seven to 11, in a language all children can understand, play. The latest activity pack focuses on two of the biggest concerns for parents when it comes to keeping their children safe online: privacy and safe sharing (2).

In the new story-style adventure, digital explorer and ‘creaturologist’ Ida Switchditonandoff, takes families on a journey through the online world in search of an imaginary LEGO® creature who loves to share. As parents read out the story, children are inspired to have fun building their own ‘Oversharer’ with LEGO bricks. Parents can then use a number of simple talking points to start a conversation with their child about topics such as what makes a good password and how to keep personal data secure.

Kathrine Kirk Muff, VP of Social Responsibility at the LEGO Group, said:

LEGO Ideas/Chronicle Books Puzzle Fan Vote Extended Due to Plagiarism

A few days ago, LEGO Ideas announced that they have extended the deadline for the fan vote on Chronicle Books puzzle competition. This is due to one of the submissions being disqualified due to plagiarism which was The Deer in the Nature category by Les Briques de Loïc. It was ruled that the creation was not entirely the creator’s own work. Fans have tracked down the original work by Grantmasters and although there are differences to them, you can also see the similarities between the two.

The fan vote has been extended to Tuesday, August 24 at 11am CET and people who voted for The Deer will get another vote for the remaining 39 projects. The winners of the competition will be announced no later than September 8.

LEGO Ideas Home Alone McCallister’s House (21330) Updated Rumors

Last month, we reported on some rumors about the upcoming LEGO Ideas Home Alone McCallister’s House and it looks like there are some updates to them. From a recent post by brick_clicker on Instagram, it looks like the details reported before were for the Black Stratocast (21329) which included a September release for VIPs at $100 price point.

The Home Alone house is now reported to have a 21330 set number with a November release. The price of it is now at $250 which is now on point with what we should expect in terms of detailing for the house and not just a facade if it was at $100. It also will have a November release date which is also fair due to the movie being a Christmas movie. Lastly, it is said that it will have five minifigures. We can for sure count in Kevin and the two Wet Bandits, Marv and Harry, but who do you think are the last two? If you were worried about the set being small, what do you think about it now?

More LEGO Sets Coming in New Color Schemes

Last week, we reported that a couple of LEGO Creator sets will be coming soon with new color schemes which included the Fiat 500 (77942) and the Mighty Dinosaurs (77941). It looks like there are even more sets that have surfaced that have new colors. First is the Mighty Dinosaurs (77940) which will have another color scheme, this time with the brown. The other set is the LEGO City Fire Station Headquarters (77944) which has some slight changes to the build. Again, we’re not sure why LEGO has opted to make similar sets in new color schemes.

LEGO Disney Train and Station (71044) Retiring Soon

If you’ve been holding off on the LEGO Disney Train and Station (71044), you may want to pick it up soon. Rumors were swirling that it would be retired by the end of 2021 and it looks like it has already happened in various parts of the world. I’m not sure when it happened but it has already been listed as a retired product in Belgium, Germany, and Luxemburg.

The set was released in August 2019 so it had the standard two year run although it seemed way longer than that. Even though it is not listed as a retiring product, take this as an early warning that it will be soon. Thanks to Jari for the heads up.

BrickLink Designer Program Round 1 Sold Out?

It’s been a week since the first round restart of the BrickLink Designer Program and it looks like all five project have sold out or did it? The site says that they have all sold out but there was still a lot of pre-orders open for the Sheriff’s Safe, Kakapo, and Pursuit of Flight as of yesterday. I’m pretty sure that this is just a programming error on their part because you are still able to add them to the LEGO Shop cart if you have the direct links. Lucky for you, we have them readily available and you can continue to purchase them.

Sheriff’s Safe (910016) – $49.99
Kakapo (910017) – $79.99
Pursuit of Flight (910028) – $54.99

In addition, Round 2 crowdfunding is listed as August 15 but we already know that it was pushed to September because of the extended rounds. Round 3 looks to be at the correct pace for a November 1 crowdfunding according to the new structure image in the link post.

LEGO Super Mario Coins Found in LEGO Stores

The past few days, social media has been lit up with some new LEGO Super Mario coins that people have been getting at LEGO Stores. The coins feature Mario in either a gold or silver finish. The distribution of it is unknown as various stores around the world have done different things to give them away. I’ve been asked many times about it and I honestly don’t know what the correct answer is except asking your store about it.

There’s been an aggregation of various ways people have gotten their coins on the LAN which consists of the following.

North America

• A store in Canada gave them out with any purchase made.
• A New Jersey store had children interact with a themed scanner device. The device would display a result of “gold” or “silver” coin, and the child would receive that coin. A small scavenger hunt had to be attempted beforehand.
• An Ohio store has the scanner, but no scavenger hunt.
• A different Ohio store has the scavenger hunt, but no scanner.
* A store in Utah gave them out only to people who purchased Adventures with Luigi Starter Course.
• A store in Canada gave them out with any purchase made.

UK

• In England, distribution began August 4th at Leicester Square and Southampton stores. No known requirements.
• The Edinburgh store gave them away to people who took photos of 5 Mario figures hidden around the store.

As you can see, there are numerous ways the coins could be obtained … Continue

LEGO Celebrates 89th Birthday

Today, LEGO celebrates its 89th birthday. On this day way back in 1932, Ole Kirk Christiansen began making his iconic wooden toys. It wasn’t until 1958 when the first brick was patented by his son and the rest is history. If you haven’t seen The LEGO Story below, it’s a great animated video showing LEGO’s history.

I don’t think there’s anything special planned for today but we can surely expect something big for next year when LEGO celebrates nine decades of play. One thing is the 90th anniversary fan vote in which LEGO will be choosing a classic theme to make a set for.

LEGO VIDIYO BeatBox Sales at Walmart

It looks like the LEGO VIDIYO sales have started to hit Walmart in stores as the BeatBox sets have been heavily discounted.

Your mileage may vary as not all stores will have the sale but it’s worth a try. Other countries have already discounted the sets and this is probably the first time I’ve seen it with a big discount in the US.

Along the way, Vaneé shares three creepy stories linked to ancient artifacts and iconic villains from across all eras of Star Wars. As Vaneé spins his tales and lures our heroes deeper into the shadowy underbelly of the castle, a sinister plan emerges.
