LEGO Star Wars Anakin’s Podracer – 20th Anniversary Edition (75258) Review

March 30, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

As we know by now, LEGO will be releasing five sets to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the LEGO Star Wars theme and the first one that I’ll be taking a look at is Anakin’s Podracer (75258). The set pays homage to the set (7131) of the same name from 1999. It has 279 pieces and will retail for $29.99.

Could LEGO be Switching to Shared Convention Exclusives?

March 21, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Yesterday, the exclusive LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Bust (75227) was announced for Star Wars Celebration 2019 in Chicago and it was also announced that Target will be carrying it as well. This brings the question of has LEGO ended the idea of “con exclusives?”

As you probably know by now, LEGO has been releasing exclusive sets and minifigures at various conventions such as San Diego and New York Comic Cons as well as Star Wars Celebration which are only available at the convention or on the secondary market. Since Target will also be getting the Darth Vader Bust, that’ll allow fans who aren’t able to attend to purchase it as well.

Could this also be the start of LEGO shared exclusives similar to what other companies, like Funko, do for some of the con products where the same items will be available at various retailers but with a different sticker than the con ones. I do like this idea as fans have been voicing their displeasure of having con exclusives for years and maybe LEGO has finally listened. We’ll see once the SDCC exclusive are announced in a few months. What do you guys think?

LEGO Star Wars Snowspeeder – 20th Anniversary Edition (30384) Polybag Revealed

March 11, 2019 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Earlier this year, we got our first look at the LEGO Star Wars 20th Anniversary sets that are coming out in April. One of these sets include the Podracer (30461) polybag but it look like there’s a new one that has started hitting store shelves. Thanks to Burnt Orange Bricks, the Snowspeeder (30384) polybag has been found at Target stores. Coming in at 49 pieces and retailing for $3.99, it is a recreation of the Rebel Snowspeeder. According to Burnt, the Podracer polybag has also been found at Target. I have the DPCI numbers of 204-00-4845 and 204-00-4899 but I’m not sure which one is for which polybag. Those numbers also do not show up yet on Brickseek so I suggest going there to look for them for now.
