Summer 2014 LEGO Chima 70147 Sir Fangar's Ice Fortress Set

Earlier this week I discussed the first of two LEGO Legends of Chima Summer 2014 exclusive sets–Cragger’s Fire Striker 70135. While I really dug the two exclusive minifigures in that 2014 Chima set, I wasn’t bedazzled by the main vehicle component of the set. However, not only do I love the exclusive minifigures in this second LEGO Legends of Chima 2014 retailer exclusive set, but the set itself is one of my favorite Chima builds of the year! Coming this summer–LEGO Chima Sir Fangar’s Ice Fortress 70147!

LEGO Ninja Turtles Movie Big Rig Snow Getaway 79116 Set Box

Last night I discussed the first of the trio of Michael Bay TMNT Movie LEGO sets coming this summer, and now let’s step back into the sewers to check out the second set: the LEGO Ninja Turtles movie Big Rig Snow Getaway 79116 set! This set is packing some pretty generic-looking vehicles, but also some must-have LEGO Ninja Turtles minifigures! Will it be on your summer 2014 wish list?

LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Movie Turtle Van Takedown 79115 Box

In case you hadn’t heard, there’s a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie on the way from director Michael Bay. I’m not the biggest Michael Bay fan these days (though the theme for his first Transformers movie is my wedding song), so I’m skeptical. That said, one thing I’ll never turn my nose up at is more LEGO TMNT sets! A trio of LEGO TMNT movie sets is coming our way this summer, and the first one I’ll discuss is the LEGO Turtle Van Takedown 79115!

LEGO 79121 Turtle Sub Undersea Chase Box

I meandered over to Toys R Us today as part of my weekly rounds, not expecting to find anything really interesting or new of note in the LEGO aisles. Turns out, though, that I was completely wrong about my chances of seeing something fresh and exciting, as staring me down from the shelves were all five LEGO TMNT 2014 sets, including the awesome LEGO Turtle Sub Undersea Chase…

LEGO Stores May 2014 Calendar: Promos, Sales and Events!

May 2014 LEGO Store Calendar Front Scan

It’s April 1st, which means three things: 1) the LEGO Stores April 2014 Calendar of Promos, Sales and Events is now in effect; 2) It’s April Fool’s Day (don’t worry, I won’t prank anyone–I utterly detest this day); and 3) the May 2014 LEGO Store Calendar has now arrived!

While there isn’t anything particularly shocking on the LEGO Stores May 2014 Calendar, it does confirm some things we had already surmised, including the release of the LEGO Star Wars Sandcrawler 75059 and the May the 4th LEGO Darth Revan minifigure promo…

LEGO Chima Cragger's Fire Striker 70135 Box Summer 2014 Set Exclusive

Just when you thought you’d seen every one of the LEGO Legends of Chima Summer 2014 sets that LEGO had lined up, the LEGO Chima 2014 summer exclusives begin rolling in! And in this first case I mean “rolling in” quite literally, as it’s a wheeled vehicle that I’ll be giving the spotlight to!

Though the Crocodile Tribe is one of the first Chima Tribes to have a multitude of sets released, they got the short end of the stick in 2014. However, the Crocs are ready to strike back this summer with the LEGO Chima Cragger’s Fire Striker 70135 set!

The LEGO Movie Everything is Awesome Edition Pre-Order Details

The LEGO Movie Everything is Awesome Edition Blu Ray DVD Set with Exclusive Vitruvius Minifigure

When the first word leaked out earlier this month regarding The LEGO Movie: Everything is Awesome Edition Blu Ray/DVD set with exclusive Prologue Vitruvius minifigure, I was immediately skeptical of the notion that the set would be exclusive to any one retailer (even one as prominent as Walmart).

Turns out I was right, as over the weekend Amazon has opened pre-orders for the LEGO Movie Everything is Awesome Edition set and revealed all the details about the set…

LEGO Star Wars Darth Revan Minifigure Polybag Figure

We’re barely a month away from the annual LEGO Star Wars May the 4th event, and we still don’t know exactly what the super-desirable exclusive LEGO May the 4th 2014 exclusive minifigure is going to be. Ever since the LEGO Star Wars TC-4 minifigure polybag showed up overseas fans have suspected it of being the LEGO Star Wars May the 4th promo for this year, but that’s never rang true with me. What does seem like a real possibility, however, is the just-revealed LEGO Star Wars Darth Revan Minifigure!

LEGO Simpsons Ralph Wiggum Minifigure with I Choo-Choo-Choose You Valentine's Day Card

I was legitimately beginning to wonder whether or not LEGO was just going to begin shipping the long-awaited LEGO Simpsons Minifigures Series 71005 this summer without actually showing us images of the figures first, but that silly thought has now been dispelled! This morning, LEGO finally officially revealed LEGO Simpsons Minifigures photos of all sixteen figures that make up the series. I had my doubts, but the figures look superb and some of the episode-specific accessories are dowright awesome…

79122 LEGO Shredder's Lair Rescue Set Exclusive Summer 2014

Images of the four known non movie LEGO TMNT 2014 sets leaked a few months ago, and we thought that was it for Nickelodeon LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sets this year. But wait–there’s more! While the leaked photos showed off all the mass-release 2014 LEGO TMNT sets, it left out a retailer exclusive set–and it’s a pretty cool one! Coming this spring–LEGO TMNT Shredder’s Lair Rescue 79122!

The LEGO Movie Everything is Awesome Edition Cover Art with Exclusive Vitruvius Minifigure

There’s been a lot of talk going around this week about the “ultimate” edition of The LEGO Movie on DVD/Blu Ray, but I wanted to wait until as many facts as possible about the release came out before discussing it.

Well, we still don’t have complete details, but I think it’s time to talk about The LEGO Movie “Everything is Awesome Edition” release! The set will include The LEGO Movie is four formats and a brand-new, exclusive LEGO Vitruvius minifigure–but will the LEGO Movie Everything is Awesome edition be a store exclusive itself…?

LEGO Minecraft Micro World The End 21107 2014 Summer Set

Although there have only been a grand total of three entries in the LEGO Minecraft Micro-World theme, there’s no denying that it has been a wildly popular and successful theme since LEGO introduced it back in 2012. LEGO has confirmed that they’re working on a new minifigure-scale LEGO Minecraft theme as well, but before we get to that, LEGO has at least one more LEGO Minecraft Micro-scale set lined up for our enjoyment–just revealed today, it’s the LEGO Minecraft The End 21107 set!

Toy Fair 2014 LEGO 70815 Super Secret Police Dropship Set

Just when I thought I’d covered every set being released for The LEGO Movie, I remembered that there was one more set that I saw on display at the New York Toy Fair 2014 last month!

While the LEGO Movie Super Secret Dropship 70815 isn’t the most iconic of the LEGO Movie Summer 2014 sets being released, it’s a beast of a set that includes the most diverse and unique assortment of LEGO minifigures ever–including the only accurate LEGO Movie Batman minifigure!
