LEGO Releases Image of Mystery Instruction Booklet

August 8, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 14 Comments

A short while ago, LEGO released another teaser which could be for the supposed LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192). For this one, they’ve shown off a mystery instruction booklet and says that this one is 2.56 times bigger than one for the the 196 page LEGO Creator Carousel (10257). If you’re counting pages, this very large booklet will have about 502 pages.

This continues the trend of releasing a teaser every Tuesday up until the official reveal of this mystery set. Stay tuned next week for another reveal if this pattern keeps up.

LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192) Hidden in Teaser Post?

August 2, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

Yesterday, LEGO did a teaser post for a new set that is releasing soon which will come in a box 4.86 times larger than the LEGO Creator London Bus box. Some Photoshop experts over on Reddit have done some x-ray editing on the image and have found out something really peculiar about it. They have actually found out that there is indeed a set inside the wrapper. As you can see from the image below (click to expand), you can clearly see the LEGO logo at the corner and you can faintly see what appears to be the cockpit for the LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon (75192).

I know fans have been waiting for an updated UCS Millennium Falcon for a long time and it looks like that dream may be coming true. LEGO has been dropping hints for many months now from shadowed outline on boxes to past designer videos but LEGO should be announcing something very soon as there is a VIP early access set starting on September 14.

May 10, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 17 Comments

There has been lots of rumored regarding the new LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon. Back in January, there were details about the ship itself while in April, there were details about some of the minifigures. There was even a reported price point of $799.99 for it.

The latest intel that was revealed was on LEGO Shop@Home itself. Earlier today, when people did a search for “UCS Millennium Falcon,” you would get a a coming soon page with the message, “Coming soon. You’re ahead of the game! That product is coming soon. Try again later!” This message was confirmed by others in various regions of the world as well. As of this writing, it looks like LEGO has fixed the query and it comes up with the no results found message.

Did LEGO accidentally reveal that there is a new UCS Millennium Falcon coming? Thanks to everyone who emailed in about it as well.

More Details of Rumored LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon

April 7, 2017 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 30 Comments

It looks like there’s more information coming out today that gives more details of the rumored LEGO Star Wars UCS Millennium Falcon. Stash2Sixx over on Eurobricks has reported that it will be at least $600 and it will be released around October. He also has given some info about some of the minifigures that will be included in the set such as Hoth Leia, Hoth Han, Chewbacca, Finn, Rey, BB8, Old Man Han, and possibly a Mynock. These minifigures correspond to the ones my source gave me a few months ago of the original trilogy minifigures.

If you haven’t heard of Stash2Sixx before, they have given correct information before in the past about LEGO Star Wars sets so I consider them be a credible source.

LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon (75105) Wins 2016 Toy of the Year Award

February 16, 2016 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 4 Comments

The 2016 New York Toy Fair is over and done and after that, there were also the Toy of the Year awards given out to the best toys from last year. Not surprisingly, LEGO was again in the running for some awards including winning the “Boy Toy of the Year” for the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Millennium Falcon (75105) which was the best toy developed specifically for boys of any age. If you haven’t checked out my in-depth review of it, you can read it here.

LEGO was also nominated for “Game of the Year” with LEGO Dimensions but lost out to the popular party Pie Face Game. Note that LEGO Dimensions was the only non-tradional tabletop game in the category.

Finally, Star Wars won “Property of the Year” for the licensor with the greatest success spreading its brand or property throughout the industry while generating interest and excitement. Obviously LEGO had some impact with the brand winning with all of the various LEGO Star Wars sets we got last year, especially with The Force Awakens sets.

LEGO had been in the running for various Toy of the Year awards in every year since the awards have been given out in 2000 and I won’t be surprised if they make the list again next year.

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens Millennium Falcon (75105) Review

September 9, 2015 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 7 Comments

Last week on Force Friday, LEGO released the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens sets to the public. Let’s hit the set reviews off with a bang and do the biggest set in the wave first, the Millennium Falcon (75105). Everyone was excited when the Falcon showed up in the first teaser trailer and we knew it was coming back for Episode VII. Of course, LEGO had to update the 2011 (7965) version so it’ll correspond to the one in the upcoming movie. The new Millennium Falcon (75105) has 1329 pieces and retails for $149.99. There are ten numbered bags, one un-numbered bag of plates, and a bagged instruction booklet with sticker sheet. Be warned, there may be some speculation and minor spoilers in The Force Awakens LEGO set reviews.
