LEGO Build-a-Minifigure Tower Temporarily Unavailable

March 15, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It looks like the Coronavirus situation has been affecting things more and more by each day and the latest one is at LEGO Stores here in the US. As you can see from the image above, the LEGO Build-a-Minifigure tower has been cleared out completely. This was at the Las Vegas location but I think all locations across the world will be doing the same thing soon.

If you saw some of my previous posts, LEGO has been doing a lot to help with the situation. First they have temporarily closed the LEGO House for few weeks, possibly longer, and they have also turned off Bricks & Pieces for ordering to keep workers who pick the parts safe. LEGO has also instructed some employees to work from home as well. In the LEGO fan community, many events have been cancelled or moved to a different date so far.

Thanks to Barry for the heads up.

LEGO Creator Fiat 500 (10271) Review

March 15, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

At the end of last month, LEGO launched the LEGO Creator Fiat 500 (10271) which was pretty unexpected as the official announcement for it was earlier the same day. LEGO has had an affinity with European vehicles and the Fiat 500 is the latest addition to the lineup. The set has 960 pieces and retails for a modest $89.99. The content of the box include nine bags numbered to three, a bagged sunroof, and the instruction booklet along with the stickers.

There will 16 minifigures to collect for the Series 2 LEGO Harry Potter Collectible Minifigures so it’ll be interesting to see who else will be included in this wave. It is also reported that it will be available in September. As always, this is only a rumor until LEGO announces it so there’s a chance it could be a fake.

LEGO Bricks & Pieces Shut Down Due to Coronavirus

March 14, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The Coronavirus pandemic has been causing a lot of short time issues around the world and the latest one is with LEGO Bricks & Pieces. A few days ago Danish authorities announced the closure of Denmark and that pretty much affected most of LEGO’s operations. With Bricks & Pieces, it affects the number of people who are picking the parts for the orders. To keep the workers safe, LEGO has decided to shut it down temporarily but everything else on LEGO Shop@Home is still normal. There’s no word on when it will be back up but I assume it’ll just go back up without any announcements so keep checking on it.

Due to COVID-19 we’ve had to introduce special measures at all our sites to reduce the risk of infection, including reducing the number of people who can work together at any one time to pick bricks for Bricks & Pieces. Buying bricks therefore isn’t available at the moment. This only applies to Bricks & Pieces – everything else is business as usual. We’ll have the service back up and running as soon as possible.

New LEGO Easter 2020 Polybags at Walmart

March 13, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

It looks like Walmart stores are getting a new LEGO Easter display with some new polybags. There are two LEGO City polybags which are the Police Car (30366) and Beach Buggy (30369) along with a LEGO Creator Cat (30574). All three polybags I believe are priced at $4.97 which is the new increased priced for 2020 polybags. Thanks to pnwlego for the heads up.

LEGO Classic Green Baseplate (10700) Amazon Sale – March 2020

March 12, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Amazon currently has the LEGO Classic Green Baseplate (10700) on sale for only $4.99 each. It is listed at 50% off on Amazon but Shop@Home has the listed price at $7.99 so that only makes it a 37% discount. Either way, getting a baseplate for this price is great especially if you’re needing a lot of them for a layout.
