LEGO Creator London Bus (40220) Polybag Revealed

June 3, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 12 Comments

Earlier today, Brickset uploaded an image of a new LEGO Creator London Bus (40220) polybag which features a double decker bus. There’s no word on how to obtain the polybag at this point as there is nothing listed on the LEGO Store calendar for July. We’ll have to wait and see if it is part of an August promo or not since the it goes great with the upcoming LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253) which will be releasing mid-June for VIPs and to the general public on July 1.

We’ll also have to see if this is a regional set or not as it does feature something prominent from the UK and we usually don’t get stuff like that here in the US. If it is, you can always build your own with the instructions but you’ll be missing the stickers for the advertisements on the sides of the bus.

LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253) Officially Announced

May 19, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

LEGO has officially announced the next direct-to-consumer set with the next landmark-type set with the LEGO Creator Big Ben (10253). Some of you may already saw this leaked out yesterday ahead of the embargo which was very disappointing for those who decided to follow the rules.

Anyways, Big Ben consists of 4,163 pieces and will retail for $249.99 which is a heck of a deal considering how many pieces it has compared to the price. Big Ben will become the 5th largest set that LEGO has produced and the second set this year to make that list with the Ghostbusters Firehouse (75827) being released earlier this year. It is on scale with the Tower Bridge (10214) so if you have that set, you can display it next to each other.

LEGO VIPs will have early access to the set starting on June 15 and to the general public on July 1. Check out the press release and more high-quality images below.

LEGO Volkswagen Käfer Rumored for Second Half of 2016

April 1, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

CM4Sci over on Eurobricks has posted details on a new LEGO vehicles set that is rumored to come out possibly later this year and that is the Volkswagen Käfer, aka the Beetle. He mentions that it’ll be similar to some of the previous vehicles like the Mini Cooper (10242) and the Ferrari F40 with set number 10252. Keep in mind that LEGO has already released a version of this car in 2008 with set 10187 so this might be the newer style of the Beetle.

Yes, I know that today is still April Fools Day but remember that Just2Good also posted about the Disney Collectible Minifigures (71012) last year on this same day and it was in fact true so don’t put this rumor on the backburner just yet but don’t get your hopes up too high if this is a false rumor.

I’ll have more details, if any, when they become available.

Update: CM4Sci over on Eurobricks has reported that the set will indeed be the Volkwagen Beetle. It will be available for general release on August 1st for $99.99 with it being available for VIPs in July.
