The Lego Movie 2 - The Second Part 2019 Set Discussion
Pchan1983 replied to Fenghuang0296's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Yes, we share the same warehouse for shop@home. Let's hope it's available. I don't even see Asia is getting the set on various online retailers so I guess probably the Jiaxing factory/packing centre is not producing it. Just saw it available now @NDLG80 -
Anyone knows when the Juice Bar promo set will be available?

There are 4 minifigures. What I meant is I will not be disappointed even they don't include any. This is how good I think is the tree house itself.

After 10 hours of heavy building, finally got his beauty done and here is my video review: THE GOOD: It looks absolutely stunning! Very very challenging build. The trunk is a absolute beast. Lots of interior details and some techniques that will blow you away. Lots of stunning exterior features as well. e.g. the stairs, the bridge, the swing. THE NOT SO GOOD: Changing season requires some effort and time. Lots of leaves are locked by other pieces so disassembly are required rather than just straight swap. The building experience on some parts can be frustrating. (Alignments!!! and getting all bricks connected perfectly is somewhat challenging) Once built, some interior features are difficult to access. Overall, this is another great sets of 2019. The looks ... well so good. There are lots of interior details as well. There are great points for you own imaginary story! (Bathroom with so many windows.... hmmm) But then the building experience is just surprising. So many interesting techniques but at times can be frustrating as well. I'm usually a minifigures person but this is a set that I don't really care much even they don't include any minifigures. The price is high but I think it's worth. I just wish they included full set to build branches with autumn leaves rather then just leaves as I estimate it will take an hour to just replace the leaves. Anyway, this set is just too good to pass on, recommend to everyone!

The Lego Movie 2 - The Second Part 2019 Set Discussion
Pchan1983 replied to Fenghuang0296's topic in Special LEGO Themes
In NZ, the stores are not getting it. And even shop@home, I can only see one of the set available. I hope at least we can get it via lego.com. I guess the reason is the whole theme is not selling well down under. The retailers here is doing 50% off to get rid of them even the newer ones released few months back. -
Yes you are right, if you pull the arms further back the ground closes better =) Yes, Lego has been going the extra mile recently. Just like the Jurassic Park D2C with Samuel L Jackson's arm and blood =P

Here is my review on 75965 The Rise of Voldemort: THE GOOD: Great minifigures. Great simple cemetery build. I love the statue and overall vibe of it. Baby Voldemore piece =P THE NOT SO GOOD: The action feature to represent The Rise of Voldemort isn't that convincing given there isn't any depth so you cannot hide Voldemore completely underground. Overall, I think this set is great with excellent minifigures. I love the cemetery build just because I'm a fan of this type of them even though I'm not a Harry Potter die hard fans. You can easily modify it to be a part of a bigger Lego cemetery. The price isn't that bad either. So I recommend this to any Lego fans! And wow at the baby voldemort, it's cute yet creepy =)

The app is available but the size 1GB throws me away ...

Here is my review on Hidden Side set 70419 Wrecked Shrimp Boat: THE GOOD: Excellent Shrimp Boat. Both the look and the build are excellent. The details on the exterior blown me away. The minifigures! All new mould and printed torsos & legs. On top of that, it can be easily integrated in other city settings! Love the new fake glow in the dark colour. (I call it fake because it looks like those glow in the dark piece but it doesn't actually do that) I like haunted theme! THE NOT SO GOOD: This is really nip picking but I guess I would prefer to have a spare torso for Captain Jonas so I don't have to switch head. Overall, this set is excellent and I recommend this to everyone! The shrimp boat and the minifigures are just superb. The price ain't bad as well considering this is something you can easily get 20% off in most retailer. The only thing I cannot check yet is the interaction with the app but again I bought the set for the build but not the app so I don't really mind. I'm actually thinking getting most sets in this theme because I'm totally impressed with the first hidden side set I've built.

Hmm so it's been 2 weeks and still only UK, US and German can order ... =( I hope they are back in time for the Hidden Side theme . -
Bought 2 sets (the school bus and the steam boat) because it's on launch special (20%). Haven't build it yet but from the back of the box, it looks awesome!

Watched the Lion King last Sunday. Not a bad movie but definitely no as good as the original. My full thoughts here.

Finally opened and built this awesome set as part of celebrating 50th Anniversary of the moon landing. THE GOOD: Great build! Surprised with the whole brick build moon surface as base. Use of metallic gold colour piece. The amount of details is a lot more than I originally expected. Easter Egg on box art. THE NOT SO GOOD: Don't have any, if I have to nip-pick one thing, the helmet of the minifigures covering the detailed print of the torso. Overall, I love this set and I do think this is a excellent set from LEGO. Will totally recommend to everyone. It's a great build, looks great and I have so many ideas on what to do with the base plate now. A great way to celebrate the 50th Anniversary on the moon landing.

[REVIEW] 5005255 - Jurassic World Minifigures (Bricktober 2018)
Pchan1983 replied to kaelthas's topic in LEGO Licensed
I actually like this pack because of Ian Malcom and Owen's 2nd face. Also I think the torso printing in this one is way better than recent sets but I do agree with most people that the raptor and drumstick is kinda waste of a slot.- 20 replies

Lego Licensed Parts available from Bricks & Pieces

75936 Jurassic Park: T. rex Rampage is now up in the system. Nothing interesting in stock. Compared to stranger things 75810, a lot of parts are not listed for this one. -
Here is my review on 75937 Triceratops Rampage. THE GOOD: The ride is surprisingly good. Looks great, good action features and build. The electric fences is great too. Love the tourist's facial expression. Getting a Lego Triceratops in a set under NZ$100. The set can be configure in different layout. THE NOT SO GOOD: The entrance felt like filler. Doesn't look finished as well. Overall, I think this set is a lot better than it looks. I originally thought it was just some simple build but the ride itself turns out to be an awesome surprise. There are also a lot of small details around the build. Apart from the entrance/gate build, everything else is great. I'm very happy with it and totally would recommend this if you are fan of theme park ride or Jurassic World fan.

[REVIEW] 70671 - Lloyd's Journey
Pchan1983 replied to makoy's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Finally opened and built mine. Love the wolf and I agree with you the Blizzard Warrior is excellent. -
Here is my review on 60233 Donut Shop Opening. THE GOOD: The coffee bike is my highlight for this set. Surprised with the detailed interior of the donut shop. The truck and the TV broadcast van are definitely some of the best small vehicle builds in recent time. Great selection of minifigures. New printed elements for the giant donut. THE NOT SO GOOD: The taxi and toy shop are very bland. Slightly high price point. Overall, this is a great addition to the city theme. There are some surprising details scattered across differently build. To be, the donut shop and the coffee bike are the best parts of this set. The truck is also great even for a non-truck fan like me. Now the price is a bit high and the toy shop & taxi really feel like being there to justify the price tag. Given getting a discount off this set is fairly easy, I will still recommend this set for any lego fans. Just a side note, this set is actually great family fun because each build has it own instruction booklet which allow simultaneous build between multiple people =)
