LEGO July 2024 Shopping Guide

June 25, 2024 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

July is right around the corner and now is a good time to release our patent pending LEGO shopping guide for the month. July is usually a smaller month for releases on the LEGO Shop with the next large one coming in August for the US.

As for the gift with purchase promotions, there’s none that have been announced so far but we can speculate that the LEGO Fireworks Celebration (40689) could be one since we do celebrate July 4th and it fits with the theme.

What Other LEGO Transformers Sets Would We Like to See Revisited – June 2024

June 15, 2024 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

I presented this question when Optimus Prime (10302) was released and now is a good time to revisit since Bumblebee (10338) was just announced but what LEGO Transformers character should see next? Now that we’ve gotten two Autobots checked off, theoretically we should see a Decepticon as the next set if LEGO continues this series.

The obvious choice is Megatron but I’ve already mentioned before that I’ll be hard for LEGO to make him as a gun or tank for his alternate modes. Even if it’s fantasy, LEGO has avoided making military-type sets so I would guess that LEGO would go for the jet mode from the movies or the Beast Wars T.Rex.

If Megatron can’t be touched, I don’t see why not since he is the main antagonist, I next clear choice is Soundwave. He is my favorite Decepticon and he’s a cassette player with various cassettes that also transform. He could potentially have lots of play features with all the different cassettes and shouldn’t bee too hard to transform since his legs just fold down from the sides and the legs pop out from the sides. Now that LEGO has introduced the sound brick, for the LEGO Harry Potter Talking Sorting Hat (76429), it wouldn’t bee too hard to implement some voices for Soundwave.

Starscream could be another possibility and he has the same issue as Megatron as LEGO has it make it look not too military for his jet. His Cybertron jet is a little more fantasy so LEGO could go that … Continue
