October 14, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 1 Comment

If you’ve been waiting for the building instructions for the New York Comic Con 2017 exclusive LEGO BrickHeadz Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite (41498), Lazer310 over on Reddit has graciously provided them in the Imgur albums in the comments. I took it a step further and made the images into PDFs for each of the characters which you can download below. Note that some of the parts are exclusive to this set so you will have to substitute the pieces with something else in your collection.

If you want your own set straight from NYCC, you can easily find them on eBay and the unsigned versions of set are trending to about $100 or less while the signed versions by Marcos Bessa are just around $120.

LEGO BrickHeadz Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite (41498) NYCC 2017 Exclusive Revealed

October 2, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 13 Comments

LEGO has officially revealed the New York Comic Con 2017 LEGO BrickHeadz exclusive set with Boba Fett & Han Solo in Carbonite (41498). The set has 329 pieces and will be sold for $40 to attendees who were able to get in on the pre-show lottery.

The set is based on Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back after Han was sealed in carbonite in Cloud City. What’s interesting about this NYCC 2017 set is that it is the first Star Wars set for LEGO BrickHeadz. Does this mean that we could see more Star Wars characters for LEGO BrickHeadz in 2018?

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Availability Update

September 28, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 26 Comments

If you are a LEGO VIP member, you may have received an email from LEGO regarding the availability for the new LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192). They have extended the VIP only access period through November which means that you must be a VIP member to be able to purchase the set. This also means that the general public won’t be able to purchase it on October 1 since they announced earlier that it will still be temporarily out of stock then. If you’re not a LEGO VIP member, I’m not sure why not, you can easily sign up online.

LEGO has also suggested that you call or visit your nearest LEGO Brand Store starting tomorrow to get put on the wait list for when shipment arrives at the store. Of course, there’s no way of knowing how many sets they will get per shipment so try to get on that list early for a higher chance to secure one.

As you may know, the new LEGO® Star Wars™ Millennium Falcon (75192), our largest LEGO set ever, went on sale exclusively to VIP Members on September 14. We are very excited that we received such a positive response from fans like yourself, it exceeded all of our expectations! Unfortunately, that also means the first batch has already sold out.

The good news is we are making more as quickly as possible and expect to have very limited quantities available for the remainder of 2017. We have extended the VIP-only access period, which means

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Release Debacle

September 14, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 105 Comments

The day is almost over and the main event today was the release of the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192). It was available on Shop@Home shortly after 5am PST which was around the time that LEGO stated it would be released. After it was actually available, Shop@Home basically couldn’t handle the load and it kept going down. Other issues with it include logging people out, servers going into maintenance, multiple orders placed, etc. After that, the set went into backordered status, and eventually temporarily out of stock. If LEGO didn’t announce an actual time for the release and just put it live at an arbitrary time, I felt that it would have eased the overload on the servers.

For those who were waiting for the general release on October 1 or Double VIP Points from October 10-25, you might be out of luck as well. Over on LEGO’s customer service page, there’s a a topic for the Millennium Falcon and there’s an interesting blurb which says,

75192 Millennium Falcon™ goes on sale from October 1st 2017, however due to the overwhelming success of our VIP Early Access, it will remain temporarily sold out.

This means that LEGO will not have stock for the general release which is actually surprising since there was plenty of hype for it way before today and they obviously knew that there was a huge demand for it but probably underestimated how much demand it really had.

LEGO also stated that they’re continuing to make more but does … Continue
