LEGO Target 2015 Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) Review

November 29, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

About a week ago, Target released the new 2015 LEGO Minifigure Gift Box Set (5004077) online for purchase individually for $9.99 or you could get it free with certain purchase restrictions but a majority of buyers went with the former route. After a day or two, they seemingly removed it from the website while physical locations don’t even know about it. From what I’m hearing, corporate is pretty upset with it being sold online early or something.

Anyways, people have started receiving their shipments of the box set including me. This is the second box set that Target has released in two years so it could be a trend going forward with them releasing one around this time every year but we’ll see. The packaging is similar with clear windows showing the four minifigures that are included. The design corresponds to the particular theme the minifigure is in which is the same as last year’s themes.

LEGO Legends of Chima Summer 2015 Official Set Images

April 11, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

There are now official images of the final wave of the LEGO Legends of Chima that will be released this summer. Earlier this week, I reported that LEGO Legends of Chima Online video game is shutting down in June so this is also a sign the theme may be going away. There are rumors that the theme will be coming back in mid-2016 but there’s no concrete evidence to support that theory. However, LEGO may decide to release LEGO Dimensions Fun Packs that will have some of the characters so they might not be totally going away. Anyways, below are the last three known sets that will be coming out in summer 2015.

Bladvic’s Rumble Bear (70225)

Mammoth’s Frozen Stronghold

King Crominus’ Rescue (70227)

LEGO Legends of Chima Online Shutting Down June 1

April 6, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

For those who are still playing LEGO Legends of Chima Online, you have about two months left to play it as the game will be shut down on June 1, 2015 for both online and on iOS.

LEGO Legends of Chima Online was released in 2013 when the theme was in its prime but as we know by now, the popular theme will be finished with the final wave this summer. I’m not sure how popular the game was but it seems that people were still enjoying it on the message boards. Below is the official announcement of the closing of LEGO Legends of Chima Online.

We are sorry to tell you that the game will no longer be accessible starting June 1, 2015 at 9:00am EST both online and through our iOS app. On this date, you will no longer be able to play the game or spend any remaining Gold Bricks. Please be aware that if you have any remaining Gold Bricks, you must use them before the game goes offline on June 1, 2015 at 9:00am EST.

We hope you had a great time exploring the world of CHIMA Online.

Thank you,
The Game Team

New Little, Brown LEGO Graphic Novel Publishing Deal

March 18, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Papercutz has lost their licence with The LEGO Group to produce graphic novels based on various themes including LEGO Ninjago and LEGO BIONICLE. The license now goes to Little, Brown which will start releasing new graphic novels late 2015. Papercutz has until the end of the year for Ninjago and BIONICLE and mid-2016 for LEGO Legends of Chima.

Starting this holiday season, there will be books released by Little, Brown based on Ninjago, BIONICLE, and Friends but we’ll get to see previews of them at San Diego Comic Con 2015 which they will have a “major presence” at the event. I’ll be at SDCC again this year so I’ll go check out and see what they have in store.

LEGO Minifigure Box Set (5004076) Review

January 10, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 3 Comments

Today we are taking a look at a little interesting product that popped up online last year as a Target exclusive. This is the LEGO Minifigure Box Set (5004076) which consists of four different minifigures from different LEGO themes. This little set was part of a Target promotion where you could get it free with a purchase of $50 or you could have just purchased the set outright for $15.

The first thing we can take a look of on the LEGO Minifigures Box Set is the packaging itself. It comes in a fairly small box with clear windows to show each of the minifigures included the set. The printing of each side of the cube corresponds to what type of theme the minifigure is in as well their accessories. Speaking of accessories, they are in the middle of the box in a plastic bag. The inside packaging also has the same background image as the outer minus the banners and accessories shown on the outside box.

Green Ninja Lloyd

The first minifigure in the LEGO Minifigures Box Set (5004076) is the LEGO Ninjago Lloyd Green Ninja in his Dragon Xtreme (DX) robe. What’s interesting about this new version of Lloyd is that he became the Green Ninja after the other ninjas already had their DX robes a year before. Like with all the DX outfits, you have the Dragon printing on the front of the torso and leg. On the back of his torso, you have some more printing of the Dragon head as well … Continue

LEGO 2015 (30xxx) Polybag Round-Up

January 3, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

LEGO Customer Services has updated their database and a lot of the instructions for the 2015 sets and also included were all this year’s polybags that will be available. Instead of doing separate posts for all of them, here’s a round-up of what you can expect to hit stores later this year. Some of them have already shown up at retailers as well as LEGO promos but I’ll add them here since they are part of the 2015 LEGO polybag lineup. If they are already available, I’ll add a note specifying how to obtain it. The only one that is missing an image is the LEGO DUPLO Snail (30218).

Note: These are only polybags with set 30xxx and does not include promotional minifigure polybags or ones that have set number 4xxxx.
