    LEGO Star Wars 2013 Pictures and Rumors

    I haven't seen any evidence that TRU ever had them in stock online. Literally no one has reported buying them there or having seen them up for sale. They created the listings online, but the items were never in stock or up for sale as far as I've heard.

    Lego Brand Store Calendars for 2013

    The August LEGO Store Calendar is up now: http://www.bricksandbloks.com/august-2013-lego-store-calendar-scans-events-giveaways-more/
  3. Is the UCS R2-D2 supposed to be retiring already? I hadn't heard that!

    Star Wars sets anyone?

    What country are you in? I haven't heard any reports of anyone finding the new LEGO Star Wars sets in the United States yet.

    LEGO Star Wars 2013 Pictures and Rumors

    I think you guys are kidding yourselves thinking Clone Wars sets are done with. The decision to cancel Clone Wars just came a couple months ago--by the time that happened, LEGO has probably already designed Winter 2013/2014 LEGO Star Wars Clone Wars sets. I doubt we'll see any Rebels sets until the end of 2014 at the earliest.

    LEGO Castle 2013

    I had way, WAY too much fun building and reviewing the LEGO Gold Getaway set: http://www.bricksandbloks.com/summer-2013-lego-castle-gold-getaway-review-set-photos-70401/

    Legends of Chima 2013

    I'm sort of lukewarm on the regular Chima sets, but these big figures are just wicked cool! From: http://www.bricksandbloks.com/lego-chima-chi-razar-buildable-figure-set-review-70205/

    LOTR & The Hobbit 2013 Set Discussion

    Fought the snowstorm this morning to get the Bilbo exclusive at my Target! It was worth shoveling out the car--for whatever reason, my Target was already starting to run low on these Hobbit combo packs. I posted a bunch of photos of him on my blog, but here's a couple:

    Future Star Wars Sets

    I bet LEGO could hugely improve the old Sandcrawler now.

    LEGO Star Wars 2013 Pictures and Rumors

    I don't see any reason why there wouldn't be Clone Wars sets in 2014. I'd be stunned if LEGO doesn't put out a set with the four Astromech Droids and Pit Droid squad from Season 5, not to mention anything coming up from the Clone Wars movies/OVAs/episodes or whatever that will be out instead of Season 6.

    Lego Superheroes 2013 Rumours & Discussion

    I've never bought LEGO Superheroes sets, but this Batman and Mr. Freeze set might be the most fun ever: http://www.bricksand...e-review-76000/ Question: Is this the first time LEGO has made a minifigure with one of the weird power-up Batman suits from the games, or do they do all of them? Because if I have one, I think I'll need to buy them all...
  12. Here's a confirmed sighting at the Burlington, MA LEGO store with receipt and photos of them on the shelf there: http://www.bricksandbloks.com/lego-minifigures-series-9-released-in-the-united-states-71000/ I guess there's no question now that these are out!
  13. There was a TON of Series 2 available when Series 3 but, and uncountable Series 3 when 4 hit. I don't think the amount of minifigs on the shelves is a good indicator of when the next set will show itself.

    TMNT 2013

    For those with local LEGO stores, do LEGO Stores usually release sets for a new theme on the same day as the LEGO online store? Or is there no correlation between the two (ie LEGO Stores release new themes before or after the online store)?

    LOTR & The Hobbit 2012

    Here's another review of Shelob Attacks posted here. In general I hate (HATE!!!) spiders, but this Shelob set has really won me over. Despite being a giant, disgusting spider, Shelob is one incredible LEGO creature! Even the minifigures in this set are awesome. I really can't believe that LEGO gave us a freaked-out, paralyzed, catatonic Frodo minifigure! I wasn't looking forward to this set at all, but with all the great accessories and minifigures, this set is a genuine hit (even to me!).

    LOTR & The Hobbit 2012

    Here's another in-depth review of the Gandalf Arrives set. This theme is SO MUCH FUN!!! I am seriously in love. I haven't felt this way about a LEGO theme since the glory days of LEGO Star Wars! I'm concerned that we haven't heard anything about a second assortment yet, though. There's so many sets that seem like they should be a given, like an Eye of Sauron, Wall of Mordor, Isengard, Rivendell, Lothlorien, and even some sets with ENTS!!

    Monster Fighters 2012

    Here's an in-depth review of the Monster Hunters The Swamp Creature set with a bunch of photos. For 8 bucks, it's a pretty killer set!
  18. I was too lazy to decipher all the codes in the store when the LEGO Minifigures started coming out, so I ended up bringing home a ton of blindbags that never got returned that are sorta rare now. I'm looking to sell off all my extras if anyone's interested. Shipping will be a total of $5 flat for any number of minifigures, which should be enough to cover USPS shipping, packaging, and delivery confirmation tracking. PM me and let me know if anyone interested in anything! :D Series 1 Demolition Dummy (SEALED IN BAG ) [2 Available] $4 Ninja (SEALED IN BAG ) [2 Available] $5 Cowboy (SEALED IN BAG ) $4 Magician (SEALED IN BAG ) $4 Circus Clown (SEALED IN BAG ) $7 Caveman (SEALED IN BAG ) [2 Available] $7 Cheerleader (SEALED IN BAG ) [2 Available] $8 Deep Sea Diver (SEALED IN BAG ) [2 Available] $4 Series 2 Weight Lifter (SEALED IN BAG ) $4 Ringleader (SEALED IN BAG) $4 Fitness Instructor (Loose & Complete) $3 Series 4 Werewolf (Loose & Complete) $5 Ice Skater (Loose & Complete) $3

    Star Wars sets anyone?

    Does anyone know what retailer has the exclusive on the Naboo Fighter? I'd rather pick one up at retail and not pay the S@H shipping, but I'm not even sure what store's getting it?

    LEGO Star Wars 2011 Pictures & Rumors

    I'd say it's pretty likely that Quinlan Vos will be in Clone Wars...

    Star Wars sets anyone?

    Since the new sets are already out internationally, should we expect to see them in America before August? Because if they had them at the opening of the NYC Lego Store next month that would be really awesome...

    Did I miss something? How do you get this guy from S@H?

    REVIEW: 8087 Tie Defender

    I'm such a fool!! I stuck the technic pins into the wings and then pushed half of each pin into the support with the other half remaining in the wing!! So instead of the wings being on top of the support, they were off to the side and just kept falling off! HA! I guess this is what I get for building a model of a ship that I had no idea what it was supposed to look like...

    REVIEW: 8087 Tie Defender

    I bought this set today and am having a horrible time with it--the wings seem to be too heavy to support and are pulling out the supports from the lone 1 by 2 technic piece being used to hold them in! As a result, the wings keep falling off! I feel like I must be doing something wrong, but I've built and rebuilt the supports for the wings and the technic piece just can't sustain the weight of these wings. Is anyone else having problems like this, or am I nuts?

    Harry Potter 2010 discussion thread

    Are we really not getting a Neville with this release? It seems crazy to me to release all the main characters including Luna and Ginny but leave out Neville...
