Brickus replied to Blondie-Wan's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I mainly collect Star Wars, Bionicle, D2C sets (Modulars, Vehicles, Fairground, Winter Village), Super Heroes, Technic, some City, Minifigures, Simpsons, Movie tie in sets I'm interested in, and Ideas, so I think I'm pretty varied. -

Has anyone seen the new LEGO Justice League Attack of the Legion of Doom movie with Trickster minifigure anywhere yet. It is supposed to be released on the 26th of this month, usually DVDs come out earlier than the release date. -

I was talking to a LEGO rep and they said the new sets will be out towards the end of next week, so no luck with them appearing before the Target sale ends. -

Because they are retailer exclusives, brought out early for their respective sales. EDIT: Also does anyone know if the Star Wars Rebels 75106 Imperial Assault Carrier will be coming locally, because Shopforme has all the others up but not this one, which would also correlate with the 2nd half year catalog not including it? -

Just be careful your bank may charge an overseas transaction fee, per transaction, mine does. -

If anyone is interested, check your local newsagent, because two near me sell Blocks magazine. Also my local Big W has some of the cargo trains and 1 Sandcrawler. -

Just wondering if anyone has seen the Ant Man set in stores yet. I saw a 'this product is currently unavailable' tag in KMart last week, but no sign of the actual set. -

Star Wars is due in August, I'm not sure about Super Heroes as there are conflicting reports about them coming this month and August. -
That's just Sabine's blaster.

The Hobbit sets were in stores briefly around December and January, but it looks like there was only one drop from LEGO. I don't think they will come back to retailers, as for Orthanc, I've asked LEGO Representatives about it, and they said it won't be coming to retailers, so unfortunately online is probably your best option find them. -

Why is LEGO now being made in China?

Yes, of course. Lol. -
Why is LEGO now being made in China?
Brickus replied to 9v system's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Full LEGO sets aren't being made in China, only certain parts from sets, such as: Elastic bands Cloth capes / Fabric and string elements Torso elements that have arm printing Double moulded legs Anything individually bagged (intricate headgear, large animal moulds, specialised headpieces) Power Functions Light-up Bricks Sound Bricks Friends Minidolls Some specialised moulds (the cannon piece found in Pirates sets) All Collectible Minifigures (if any new mould appears in this line first, and then reappears in sets then it is most likely coming from China) However every single LEGO set will list Denmark, Hungary, Mexico and the Czech Republic as countries of manufacture, although you may come across ones that also list Poland, Austria, Germany, USA, Hong Kong and Indonesia. -
Thanks for the video merman, it was pretty hard getting through it though. 'LEGOs', so grating.

Hello everyone, This is my first mod of an original set, I don't mod/moc, as I only build and display sets, however, I felt last year's 75052 Cantina set was a little underwhelming, and like many others hoped to buy a second one at a good discount to combine two. So after picking up another 75052 heavily battered at 40% off (the box was crushed and the sticker sheet was folded in half between the opening flaps), I decided that I would combine the two using only the parts provided in the two sets, still keeping with the aesthetic and design of the original set. I would like to credit user 'Artisanproxy' for some of the inspiration that went into making my version of the Cantina. Here it is. I apologise if the photos are a little small and over exposed. Most of the right side is the original set apart from the bar area. Unfolded The seating area on the left is from the original set. I decided to go with the curved wall at the back of the bar to give a bit of diversity from all the hard edges, but I'm not sure if I like it myself. Back of the bar. I turned the back archway into a window/service area, kind of like a drivethrough. Seating area of my own design on left. The bar. Comments and criticism welcome.
