LEGO Creator Ferris Wheel (10247) Front Box Art Image

April 27, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

Yesterday, we kind of broke the internet LEGO-wise with an image reveal of the LEGO Creator Ferris Wheel (10247). If that wasn’t enough, there’s now an image of the front of the box for the set posted on Instagram by andrilinardi. As you can see from the image above, the Ferris Wheel is an expert set and contains 2,464 pieces. It’s hard to see but the set itself is 60cm tall which is a little less than 24 inches tall and 38cm or about 15 inches wide. There’s still no pricing for it so far but my guess is about $199.99. One thing we do know is that the Ferris Wheel (10247) will be available for VIP members starting on May 13 and for the general public on June 1. Thanks to Bill for the heads up.

April 26, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 23 Comments

An image of the new LEGO Creator Ferris Wheel (10247) has been posted on the AFOLs of FaceBook group via Warren. We first talked about this set in our 2015 promotions report last year and many readers have been waiting a long time to see a glimpse of the set. The image is cropped from the June 2015 LEGO Store Calendar which has started to been passed out already at LEGO Stores. The set will be available to LEGO VIP members on May 13 and for the general public on June 1 at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home. We should be seeing the official press release and designer video any time now.

LEGO Creator Summer 2015 Official Box Art Images

April 26, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Moving along with the official summer 2015 box art images from Portuguese online retailer BrincaLandia, we now have the ones from the LEGO Creator line. There aren’t much in this wave but there are currently three sets that we can show off. One of the more popular sets that I’ve seen is Changing Seasons (31038) because you can build three different seasons. The above set is Adventure Vehicles (31037).

Adventure Vehicles (31037)

Enjoy adventures on land, in the air, and on the water with the 3-in-1 LEGO Creator Adventure Vehicles set. The tough offroader features a working winch and hook mechanism, opening doors, chunky deep-tread tires, and orange warning beacons. When you’re done off-roading, rebuild it into a hovercraft or a high-speed helicopter for more fun adventures.

Changing Seasons (31038)

Enjoy the delights of summer, autumn, or winter with the 3-in-1 LEGO Creator Changing Seasons set. The summer cottage features a barbecue with a LEGO light brick and swimming pool. When you feel like a change of season, rebuild it to create an autumn cottage with a Halloween theme or a winter cottage with a Christmas theme.

Blue Power Jet (31039)

Thunder over land and sea with the 3-in-1 LEGO Creator Blue Power Jet set. This power jet model features movable wings, ailerons and flaps, folding undercarriage, and an accessible engine compartment. Plus, you can rebuild it into a high-tech helicopter or an aerodynamic hovercraft with twin cockpits.

LEGO Creator Ferris Wheel (10247) To Be Revealed Soon

April 2, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

Every month this year, there has been a reveal of a LEGO Direct-to-Consumer set, usually around the middle of the month except for The Shield Helicarrier (76042) which was at the end of January. I expect LEGO to do the same in April with their reveal of the rumored Ferris Wheel (10247). One of my reasonings is that according to the May 2015 LEGO Store Calendar from May 13-31, VIP members will be getting early access to a new exclusive set. This date range also corresponds to the date that was provided from the fairly famous list of 2015 set releases and promotions.

For those who haven’t heard about the set, the Ferris Wheel (10247) is rumored to be a companion set to the LEGO Creator Fairground Mixer (10244) which was revealed around the same time last year. I know a lot of people really dig the Mixer with all the play features that are included and I’m sure the Ferris Wheel won’t disappoint either. Now we just play the waiting game until the set is officially revealed which could be any time between now and the end of the month.

Do you guys have the Fairground Mixer and will you be getting the Ferris Wheel to go along with it to expand your amusement park?

LEGO Creator Modular Pet Shop (10218) Retiring Soon

March 15, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

Word has it that the LEGO Creator Modular Pet Shop (10218) is about to be retired. LEGO Brand Stores are mostly out of them or have very limited quantites available. Although it says out of stock on Shop@Home, you can still order it online or by over by phone but it will ship in 30 days. If you don’t have this set, now is the perfect time to get it since the Double VIP Points event has just started. Thanks to Anthony for the heads up.

LEGO Maersk Line Triple-E (10241) Retiring Soon

February 25, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Everything usually comes to an end and that is what’s happening with the LEGO Creator Maersk Line Triple-E (10241). The set has been available since January 2014 but now has been placed in the “Retiring Soon” section on Shop@Home. This usually means LEGO has probably stopped producing the set and is just selling off the rest of their inventory online and in stores to make room for upcoming releases. There’s no exact timetable on when the Maersk Line Triple-E will be fully retired but there’s still some time to pick it up as of this writing. Thanks to Michael for the heads up.
