LEGO Marvel 2022 Mechs Relisted for April 1 Release

January 11, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has relisted the three LEGO Marvel 2022 mech sets on the LEGO Shop with a new release date of April 1. Last month, another fan media revealed an email communication with those who got review sets that there was some stability issues with them and the official launch date of January 1 would not be happening. Perhaps, LEGO has fixed the issues and the sets are ready to go but the images look the same as before. I’ve reached out for additional details but as of right now, the three mechs will be greenlighted for April 1.

LEGO Overwatch 2 Titan (76980) Release Delayed

January 11, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that they are pausing the release of the upcoming LEGO Overwatch 2 Titan (76980) to review their partnership with Activision Blizzard. The set was set to be released on February 1 which was one of my more anticipated sets so far this year but there has been a lot of feedback in the community regarding the allegations in the workplace at Activision Blizzard and why the set is still be released. LEGO will share an update for their plans on the partnership when they reach a decision on if and how Activision addresses their employees’ concerns.

We are currently reviewing our partnership with Activision Blizzard, given concerns about the progress being made to address continuing allegations regarding workplace culture, especially the treatment of female colleagues and creating a diverse and inclusive environment. While we complete the review, we will pause the release of a LEGO Overwatch 2 product which was due to go on sale on February 1, 2022.

LEGO VIP Collectible Coins Available Again in Rewards Center

January 11, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The LEGO VIP Collectible Coins are now available in the LEGO Rewards Center for those who didn’t get them last year. They cost 1,150 points each and the coin holder costs 700 points so if you’re brand new to the coins, everything would cost you 6,450 VIP points. If the coins aren’t your thing, 6,500 points would give you a $50 discount. LEGO stated that if the demand is low, it’s possible for those who already got one before to get a second one in the future.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) Pre-Order on Zavvi

January 10, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) promotional set went live today on the LEGO Shop but if you have nothing to purchase, Zavvi seems to be selling it as a standalone set for $9.99. They are taking pre-orders for it and it will be released on January 28. I’m not sure if I’ve seen a brand new promo set being on sale at another retailer but I took a chance and ordered a few for my family to see if it works.

LEGO VIP Collectible Coins Available Again January 11

January 9, 2022 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that they will be bringing back the LEGO VIP Collectible Coins for those who missed it the first time around. For a limited time, while supplies last, you can get the coins in the LEGO Rewards Center starting on January 11. The times that they will be available are as listed below:

• In Australian and New Zealand: midnight Sydney time
• In Japan: midnight local time
• In Korea: midnight local time
• Europe: 11am CET/10am GMT
• United States and Canada: 9am EST

This second opportunity will only be available to VIP members who didn’t get any of the particular coins or coin holder which allow more people to get them. LEGO did state that if demand is low, they may open it up for VIPs to get a second coin. The coins originally cost 1,150 VIP points while the coin holder cost 700. I’m assuming they will be the same price as I see no reason why LEGO would change it.

LEGO® VIP collectible coins are back!

We’re making our LEGO® VIP collectible coins and coin holder available again on January 11, 2022 in our VIP Rewards Centre. Each coin (as well as the coin holder) is only available to VIP members who didn’t get any coins or weren’t able to complete their set last year. We expect supplies to run out quickly. If demand is lower than we expect, we may open the promotion up so VIP members can get a second coin. Keep an eye on the VIP

Be sure to use Rakuten to earn some cash back from your purchase.

Update: The Lunar New Year Traditions (80108) product listing is not coming up anymore. If the page does come up, the listing says “Coming Soon” so I’m not sure what’s going on with it.

Update 2: The set should be up now.
