The LEGO Movie LEGO Minifigures Series 12 71004 Released in Stores

When discussing the LEGO 2014 sets the last few months, I’ve made a habit of saying that they’ll be released “by January 2014”, because I always fully believe the new sets will sneak out early. But I haven’t been applying those words to the 2014 LEGO Minifigures Series 12, as those are the LEGO Movie Minifigures series blind bags, and there’s no way stores would be allowed to sell those before the January 1st, 2014 street date.

Well, it turns out I was both right… and wrong. LEGO 71004 Minifigures Series 12 has now been sighted in the United States!

2014 LEGO Batman Man-Bat Attack Review LEGO 76011

Posted on by
LEGO Batman Batcopter Rope Holding Nightwing Minifigure

I’ve been talking about the LEGO 2014 sets for so many months now that it feels almost surreal to actually have some of the sets in my possession. The first batches of 2014 LEGO sets have started hitting stores, and I built my first one this week. Though LEGO DC Superheroes isn’t usually among my favorite themes, when I saw the LEGO Batman: Man-Bat Attack 76011 set, I instantly fell in love. Does the set hold up now that I’ve had it in my hands and built it? Read the 2014 LEGO Batman Man-Bat Attack review to find out…

2014 LEGO Disney Princess Sets Released Little Mermaid & Cinderella

I dropped by my nearest LEGO Store today to see if the rumors I’d heard were true–and they were! Many of the LEGO 2014 sets that have previously only been sighted at the inflated Toys R Us prices have arrived at local LEGO Stores. But that’s not all–there’s something magical at the LEGO Brand Stores as well, something that Toys R Us failed to beat them to the punch on–the entire wave of the LEGO Disney Princess 2014 sets! I took photos of the front and back of each set, and can now confirm the official pricing for all of the 2014 LEGO Disney Princess sets…

With all the LEGO leaks springing lately, LEGO is lucky it isn’t a ship–because it would be sinking! Once again, one of the upcoming LEGO Winter 2014 sets has appeared, and it’s another DC LEGO Super Heroes set! While none of the characters in this LEGO Batman set are “new” exactly, this is the sort of army-builder set many collectors have been waiting for.

LEGO Simpsons Homer Simpson Minifigure 2014

The highly controversial spring 2014 LEGO Minifigures Series 13 theme is allegedly LEGO The Simpsons, so it’s not a jaw-dropper that early LEGO Homer Simpson minifigures have now leaked out for sale on the internet.

The Homer Simpson LEGO minifigure is definitely priced higher than I would pay for him right now, but it is nice that we’re finally able to get a good look at the kind of figures that will be included in next year’s LEGO Simpsons minifigures lineup…

Every year LEGO Shop at Home sends sites a list of their “Brick Friday” promotional sales and deals the day before Thanksgiving and asks that they not be posted until it’s almost time for the sale to begin. Well, this afternoon they sent out the list of 2013 Black Friday LEGO Shop sale prices and promotions and didn’t ask to hold out on it, so I guess they don’t care this year! While the Black Friday 2013 LEGO sales aren’t anything to write home about, there are a couple of gems to be found this year, including 50% Off The Hobbit: An Unexpected Gathering 3920 set!
