New Little, Brown LEGO Graphic Novel Publishing Deal

March 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Papercutz has lost their licence with The LEGO Group to produce graphic novels based on various themes including LEGO Ninjago and LEGO BIONICLE. The license now goes to Little, Brown which will start releasing new graphic novels late 2015. Papercutz has until the end of the year for Ninjago and BIONICLE and mid-2016 for LEGO Legends of Chima.

Starting this holiday season, there will be books released by Little, Brown based on Ninjago, BIONICLE, and Friends but we’ll get to see previews of them at San Diego Comic Con 2015 which they will have a “major presence” at the event. I’ll be at SDCC again this year so I’ll go check out and see what they have in store.

LEGO BIONICLE Hero Pack (5002941) Review

March 3, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

From now until March 20 or while supplies last, every purchase you make from the LEGO Store or on Shop@Home will net you a LEGO BIONICLE Hero Pack (5002941). When you shop online, it will automatically be added to your shopping cart. The polybag consists of only 9 pieces but most of the contents are paper stuff which we’ll get into shortly.

On the Hero Pack polybag packaging, it shows pretty much what you’ll be getting which includes a booklet, a poster, a sticker sheet, and a package of pieces for the build. Note that the mask on the top right corner is not the usual Mask of Creation that we’ve seen in the current sets.

The booklet includes a short comic of Tahu getting his mask and fighting the Skull Spiders. There are also instuctions on how to build the Skull Spider. Finally you get images of the some of the BIONICLE sets in the current wave.

On one side of the poster, you get images of the different Toa masks as well as their gold versions. On the other side, you have a map of the island of Okoto. There are designations of what appears to be the locations of the golden masks.

The sticker sheet is the holographic kind and each of the stickers is of the Toa’s gold masks and the LEGO BIONICLE logo. It’s the same type of material that’s been used before in other stickers so it’s nothing too special about it.

As mentioned before, you also get a bag … Continue

February 1, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

If you still haven’t gotten enough of the LEGO sets shown at the 2015 Nuremberg Toy Fair, Spieletest has post some videos of various themes showing off some of the summer 2015 sets including LEGO City, Ninjago, Elves, Speed Champions, BIONICLE, and Ultra Agents. Here you can get a closer look at some of the sets that weren’t seen in images the past week or so. You can also get a nice look at some of the minifigures that will be included with the sets. Unfortunately, there are no videos of the licensed sets. The videos fly through the sets pretty fast but at least you can pause the video to see some of the details.
