Today marks the last day for the LEGO Double Insider Points event on the LEGO Shop for at least a few months. We usually get one of these during the summer, one in the fall, and one or two more times during the holiday season. The double points will work on any current in-stock items as well as on backorder items and even pre-order items.

There’s only about a day and half left for the LEGO Double Insider Points event on the LEGO Shop. Until tomorrow at 9:00pm PT, you can earn double points on all your purchases. These events are the best time to get the larger sets like The Lord of the Rings Barad-Dur (10333) to get more bang for your buck. We probably won’t see another double points event until probably August or September, if we get one then. Last year, we didn’t get one until October.

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
One of the more elegant LEGO Art sets has recently gotten another discount on Amazon which is the Hokusai – The Great Wave (31208). It is now on sale for $83.99 which is a 16% discount and that saves you $16 on the 1,810 piece set. I don’t keep many sets built after I’ve reviewed them but this is one of the sets that I have kept even after a year. It makes a great talking piece for visitors with the 3D look for the waves.
