The April 2016 LEGO Store Calendar is now available and there are some cool things happening for the month.
April 1-15: Finally confirmed is the FREE LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman Classic TV Series – Mr. Freeze (30603) minifigure polybag with purchases of $75 or more at LEGO Stores and on Shop@Home. If you’re planning on picking up the Batman: Classic TV Series Batcave (76052), your decision now is to wait for Double VIP points in March or for the Mr. Freeze polybag in April.
April 25-May 8: You can get a FREE LEGO Elves Sira’s Adventurous Airglider (30375) polybag with purchases of $35 or more on Friends, Elves, and Disney Princess sets.
April 5-6: The VIP Monthly Mini Build will be a Bumblebee.
April 11-15: There will be a LEGO Maze Competition at 5pm using the LEGO Ideas Maze (21305). Here we can also get a good look at the set which should be announced very shortly, probably at LEGO World Copenhagen.
April 18: LEGO Brand Stores will have a Minifigure Swap day.
New sets that will be available on April 1 include the LEGO Angry Birds, Juniors, Super Herores, Elves, and Minecraft. There will be bonus VIP points on purchasing the LEGO Elves The Starlight Inn (41174) and the Fire Dragon’s Lava Cave (41175).
If you’ve ever been on ReBrick, you may feel that it might not be the most effective bookmarking website for fans. Initially, it was a place for fans to share creations and unfortunately, it didn’t work out as planned with various issues hampering the user experience.
LEGO has been at work to do a relaunch on the site on March 1st. They have shared a short video of how ReBrick will work. It’ll still focus on fan creations but will also have more contests for you to enter to win hard to find sets, signed sets, or trips.
There has been some worry on whether or not we’ll be getting the LEGO DC Comics Super Heroes Batman Classic TV Series – Mr. Freeze (30603) minifigure polybag which was first seen last week at the New York Toy Fair. As of this time, it was only given out to special attendees to the event and some people were speculating that it was only exclusive to that event.
I’ve just received an anonymous email from someone who states they work at a LEGO Store saying that it’ll be widely available as a LEGO promotion in April with purchases of a certain threshold. I went around to check to confirm this and surely enough, Just2Good over on Eurobricks has also stated this and he also added with a purchase of $75.
Until the April 2016 Store Calendar is available, we won’t know for sure but keep in mind that J2G usually doesn’t let us down with his reports. We’ll know for sure if we’ll actually be getting the classic Mr. Freeze polybag when the calendar is released in a few weeks.
Update: It has been confirmed on the April 2016 Store Calendar that it will be part of a promotion.
At the beginning of the year, LEGO released some new LEGO Star Wars Battle Packs including the Resistance Trooper Battle Pack (75131). This particular one consists of 112 pieces and retailed for the usual $12.99 price point. The contents of the box include two un-numbered bags and the instructions.
BrickLink has given an update on some of the changes coming to the popular third-party LEGO service. The main thing is the new Storefront look that every store will get. I’ll sort of summarize what these changes are but you want a more detailed explanation, head on over to the link above.
First off the stores will have a more streamlined layout and the focus will be on the content of the store. You can change the color and logo to match your liking.
Next is the store curated landing page which lets sellers customize what buyers will see when they arrive to the page.
The new Splash Page will not its own page but will act as an actual splash page when buyers arrive.
The categories have also been overhauled with hierarchy levels within the categories. For example, the different LEGO themes have been broken down to sub-themes so you can easily see what’s available. You can also collapse and expand the categories so you can focus on what’s most relevant to you.
One of the main complaints of the old BrickLink was the search experience. Now there are advanced search filters that are dynamic which makes it a lot more easier to find what you’re looking for.
The Store Terms are now labeled on the right side of the page with an Average Lot Value and a Minimum Buy.
Right below the menu bar is a new Store Announcement bar that lets buyer know what annnouncements you have. So if you’re closing your store … Continue
A week ago at the New York Toy Fair, we finally got some details of the new LEGO Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures and today there’s a trailer online for the new TV series. There’s also a description of what the show is about including the names of the Freemakers: Kordi, Zander, and Rowan who are searching for the Kyber Crystals. Check out the trailer below. Thanks to Miguel for the email.
Long ago, a Jedi Master forged the Kyber Saber, a lighsaber made of Kyber Crystals. It proved to be too powerful, so the Jedi Master shattered it, and scattered the crystals throughout the galaxy, to keep the power out of evil’s hands. Meet Kordi, Zander, and Rowan, three sibling scavengers who, with the help of Roger and Naare, are on a quest across the galaxy, to retrieve the Kyber Crystals before the Emperor does.
