Disney Finalizes Deal to Acquire 21st Century Fox

December 14, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 5 Comments

One of the big news today is that Disney has officially announced that the company will acquire 21st Century Fox for $52.4 billion. This acquisition means that certain franchises will return to Marvel including X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Deadpool. Disney will also acquire other entertainment properties like The Simpsons.

Now that the deal has been finalized, LEGO fans can now start speculating about what potential LEGO sets we could see in the future. Obviously, there’s the X-Men and Fantastic Four but we also get a ton of other characters that could we finally get to see in LEGO form like Galactus, Silver Surfer, and Doctor Doom. And obviously fans want to see more Deadpool stuff but that’s iffy since it’s a rated-R property and still be that way according to Bob Iger.

Furthermore, The Simpsons are now also under the Disney umbrella which also could make a return as a LEGO theme. We’ve gotten a few LEGO sets for them already like The Simpsons House (71006) and The Kwik-E-Mart (71016) as well as two waves of Collectible Minifigures. Maybe this Disney/Fox deal can help kickstart negotiations for another Simpsons licensing agreement to produce more sets.

We don’t know what goes behind closed doors for LEGO licensing deals for certain properties but it’s fun to guess what we could possibly get in the future. What do you guys want to see as LEGO sets that are part of the Disney announcement today?

December 9, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

Back in July during Disney’s D23 Expo, it was announced that there will be a new LEGO animated special called LEGO Marvel Super Heroes – Guardians of the Galaxy: The Thanos Threat. Apparently it has been showing on the Marvel HQ YouTube channel and the last episode of the five part series has aired. There’s no word whether the complete episode will be airing on TV or not but in the meantime, you can watch all five episodes below.

Could We See LEGO X-Men and Fantastic Four Sets in the Future?

December 6, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 12 Comments

CNBC is reporting that Disney and Fox are close on a deal for Disney to acquire assets from Fox which include the 20th Century Fox movie studio for about $60 billion. This means that Disney will regain the film rights to all of the Marvel comics characters which include the X-Men and Fantastic Four.

This is some great news that fans have been waiting for but for LEGO fans, this might mean that we could be getting more properies for LEGO Marvel Super Heroes sets like X-Men, Fantastic Four, etc. We’ve gotten LEGO sets here and there from Fox properties like the Mighty Micros: Wolverine vs. Magneto (76073) but the last larger set was the X-Men vs. The Sentinel (76022) way back in 2014.

The Disney/Fox deal, which is expected to be announced next week, possibly opens the door for LEGO to maybe start planning on trying to get some licensing deals with those properties. Fingers crossed for some 90’s style X-Men characters if this deal gets done!

Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War Trailer

November 29, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 12 Comments

One of the other major reveals today, besides the announcement of the LEGO Creator Downtown Diner (10260), was the trailer for Avengers: Infinity War. Here we see a lot of things happening including more of Thanos and the Black Order who are trying to obtain the Infinity Stones.

As we know by now, there will be some LEGO Marvel Super Heroes Avengers: Infinity War sets that will be coming out in conjunction with the film. I believe there will be at least six sets that will be coming out in the spring. We know that we’ll most likely be getting new variants of the characters as well as Thanos and the Black Order. I’m also interested on seeing how LEGO can improve on the Hulkbuster suit from the Age of Ultron version.

Three fourths of the way in the trailer, we see a bearded Captain America (Nomad) and Black Panther fighting some four-armed aliens. From the earlier reports, we’ll be getting them in a set and their names are roughly called Outriders but that could change.

The Avengers: Infinity War trailer was my most anticipated one for an upcoming movie. Based on previous experiences, we know that the LEGO sets based on films are a mixed bag but I’m excited about them either way, especially for the new minifigure. What are you most hoping to see with these LEGO sets?

Warning: There are some spoilers from Thor: Ragnarok so I suggest not watching the Infinity War trailer until you see the third installment of Thor.… Continue
