February 20, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 9 Comments

If you’re heading out to Toy R Us, you may want to check out the LEGO section because you may find some of the new sets a little early there. At my closest location, I found one of the new LEGO Speed Champions sets, the McLaren Mercedes Pit Stop (75911) which retails for $29.99. I also found four of the LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Avengers: Age of Ultron sets including Iron man vs. Ultron (76029), Avenger Hydra Showdown (76030), Attack on Avengers Tower (76038), The Hydra Fortress Smash (76041). I hope to have a review for these sets up in the next couple of days. There also reports that the LEGO Elves and LEGO Pirates are also showing on shelves as well.

LEGO Super Heroes Super Jumpers – To Use or Not To Use?

February 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 8 Comments

In the new DC Comics Super Heroes and upcoming Marvel Super Heroes sets, LEGO has included a new gimmick called the Super Jumpers to encourage more play but there are some problems with it. I’ve gotten a few comments and emails from readers who want to get the word out on it since they’ve also run into this issue.

If you’re not familiar with the Super Jumpers, it’s a clear piece that you can attach your minifigures to and you push down to launch them in the air. If you covet your LEGO minifigures, I would suggest not using them. The reason is that they could potentially damage the back of the minifigures’ legs. There have been various reports on Eurobricks and Reddit, just to name a few, that this play feature has given people this problems.

The minifigures are hard to get on the jumpers and once you have them on, they have a lot of clutch power where they attach to the minifigures pretty tightly which makes it a little harder to pull off. If I was a child playing with it, I would just push the minifigure all the way down but this is what causes the damage especially with that unnecessary little ridge piece where the back of the legs meet the jumper. The plastic causes more stress than usual to the legs and it actually warps them and creates small dents on the leg holes (see below).

For the casual person who just plays with the set, it may or … Continue
