More LEGO Sets Coming in New Color Schemes

August 13, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Last week, we reported that a couple of LEGO Creator sets will be coming soon with new color schemes which included the Fiat 500 (77942) and the Mighty Dinosaurs (77941). It looks like there are even more sets that have surfaced that have new colors. First is the Mighty Dinosaurs (77940) which will have another color scheme, this time with the brown. The other set is the LEGO City Fire Station Headquarters (77944) which has some slight changes to the build. Again, we’re not sure why LEGO has opted to make similar sets in new color schemes.

LEGO Disney Train and Station (71044) Retiring Soon

August 13, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

If you’ve been holding off on the LEGO Disney Train and Station (71044), you may want to pick it up soon. Rumors were swirling that it would be retired by the end of 2021 and it looks like it has already happened in various parts of the world. I’m not sure when it happened but it has already been listed as a retired product in Belgium, Germany, and Luxemburg.

The set was released in August 2019 so it had the standard two year run although it seemed way longer than that. Even though it is not listed as a retiring product, take this as an early warning that it will be soon. Thanks to Jari for the heads up.

LEGO Ideas/Chronicle Books Puzzle Fan Vote Live

August 12, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Back in June, LEGO Ideas started a building contest for Chronicle Books to create an idea for a puzzle to be released at a future date. The entries are now set and the fan vote for the contest is now live. There are 40 total entries spread out in four categories which include Space, Retro, Nature, and Architecture. You have only once chance to cast your vote so choose wisely. Voting will end on August 19 and there will be one winner in each category. Since there are two announcements, the fan vote winners will not necessarily be made into a puzzle.

BrickLink Designer Program Round 1 Sold Out?

August 12, 2021 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It’s been a week since the first round restart of the BrickLink Designer Program and it looks like all five project have sold out or did it? The site says that they have all sold out but there was still a lot of pre-orders open for the Sheriff’s Safe, Kakapo, and Pursuit of Flight as of yesterday. I’m pretty sure that this is just a programming error on their part because you are still able to add them to the LEGO Shop cart if you have the direct links. Lucky for you, we have them readily available and you can continue to purchase them.

Sheriff’s Safe (910016) – $49.99
Kakapo (910017) – $79.99
Pursuit of Flight (910028) – $54.99

In addition, Round 2 crowdfunding is listed as August 15 but we already know that it was pushed to September because of the extended rounds. Round 3 looks to be at the correct pace for a November 1 crowdfunding according to the new structure image in the link post.

One of which is Tony Stark’s Sakaarian Iron Man (76194) and the other is a few characters from the LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigures (71031).
