LEGO House Live Tours – a new initiative

Many LEGO® fans from all over the world are not able to visit LEGO House due to the restrictions of the COVID-19 outbreak.

For all of you we are now opening up the History Collection in the basement of LEGO House to invite you to join the free LEGO House Live Tours where we introduce you to the history of the LEGO Group.

The LEGO Group started back in 1932 and its history is full of stories and play. To provide an in-depth live tour we offer 5 individual tours based on 5 important chapters of the LEGO Group’s history. The tour will be hosted by a LEGO historian, who is an expert in LEGO history, and you will be able to ask questions during the session via Live Chat. The tour guide will answer your questions live.

LEGO House Exclusive Wooden Duck (40501) Revealed

June 2, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Earlier this year, it was reported that the LEGO House Tree of Creativity (4000026) would be retired and a new exclusive set would be taking its place. Fast forward to today, we now know of the set thanks to Brickset which is the Wooden Duck (40501). The building instructions were found uploaded to Customer Service but it looks like they have been quickly taken down.

The set pays homage to the Wooden Duck created by Ole Kirk Christiansen that was released in 1935. Like with other LEGO House exclusives, I don’t see it being available online and will be only available at the LEGO House, unless you have connections or purchase them off the secondary market.

May 31, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It’s June and there are some new LEGO sets that are now available for purchase on LEGO Shop@Home. Unlike our European counterparts, we only have a limited number of new sets to buy and the rest won’t be releasing until August. In addition, the promotion for the LEGO Hot Rod (40409) has also started and you can get it with purchases of $85 or more, while supplies last. The main highlight set that has released is the LEGO Technic Lamborghini Sián FKP 37 (42115).

Update: I’m not sure why LEGO took the Venomsaurus set down.

LEGO Ideas Trabant 601 Achieves 10,000 Supporters

May 31, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The Trabant 601 by pedankopet is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. I’m not too familiar with the car but it was stated that the Trabant is one of the more iconic cares of the socialist era of Europe. It features a two-door sedan with opening doors, hood, and trunk. You can also access the interior by removing the roof.

It now joins The Mountain Windmill, Community – Greendale Community College, LEGO HeroQuest, Brickwest Studios, House from Up, and Animal Crossing New Horizons: Nook’s Cranny as the projects to reach the Second 2020 Review Stage.

LEGO Hot Rod (40409) Official Images

May 31, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

There are now official images of the LEGO Hot Rod (40409) which will be available starting tomorrow with purchases of $85 or more, while supplies last. The 142 piece set references some older sets including the Model Team Blue Fury (5541) from 1995 and LEGO Creator Hot Rod (10151) from 2004. If my guess is right, it promotion should go live on LEGO Shop@Home around midnight EST/9pm PST and will run until June 21. This set will sell out fairly fast unless LEGO made a lot of them.
