LEGO Star Wars AT-DP Polybag Review & Photos 30274

LEGO Star Wars AT-DP 30274 Review

A lot of the time, I skip writing reviews for LEGO free promo polybag sets. They’re not composed of many pieces, there’s not much build to speak of, and there’s not much point to reviewing something that people aren’t going to pay any money for anyway. But the January 2015 LEGO AT-DP polybag is a little bit different, because even though it was originally “free”, it sold out from the LEGO Shop in two days, and now collectors have to pay ~$12 to get the 30274 LEGO AT-DP on the aftermarket. For free this set got an unquestionable recommendation, but what about if you have to pay for it…?

LEGO Bionicle Lewa Master of Jungle 70784 Review 2015

A lot of folks were overjoyed when news surfaced that LEGO Bionicle would be returning in 2015, replacing the less-than-beloved LEGO Hero Factory line. While I’d never owned a LEGO Bionicle toy in my life, I was anxious to give the revived 2015 LEGO Bionicle theme a try–and what better place to begin than with a lime green Bionicle (to match my car): 70784 Lewa Master of Jungle!

Am I excited about my first foray into Bionicle? Read on…

LEGO AT-DP Polybag Promo Sold Out Early

Ever since it was announced at the end of November 2014, LEGO Star Wars collectors had been looking forward to the free LEGO AT-DP promo polybag available at the LEGO Store in January 2015.

But I guess that the old saying of “if you snooze, you lose” is true in this case, because I’ve now received official confirmation from the online LEGO Shop that the 30276 LEGO AT-DP is completely sold out!

LEGO Green Lantern vs. Sinestro Review & Photos 76025

LEGO Green Lantern vs. Sinestro Review (LEGO 76025)

Crazy as it sounds, I’ve known exactly what my first LEGO review of 2015 would be ever since the first set LEGO unveiled for 2015 last summer. Why? Because both sets are one and the same, of course!

While I’m way more a Marvel guy than DC, I’m a Green Lantern fan for life. And my favorite comic book villain of all…? Sinestro. So I ordered this 76025 LEGO Green Lantern vs. Sinestro set the moment it went up for sale online. Does it meet my expectations? Read on…

LEGO The Joker Bumper Car 30303 Set Polybag Packaged

Despite the fact that the LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham video game was one of the biggest games of 2014, LEGO really didn’t produce very many new LEGO Batman sets to coincide with the release of the game. But 2015 is sweeping in to the rescue, and one of the exclusive Winter 2015 polybags will further expand the LEGO Batman 3 universe in toy form!

Exclusively arriving at Toys R Us shortly, it’s the LEGO Joker Bumper Car 30303 set!

And first up is one of the first brand-new polybag sets of 2015. Coming exclusively to Toys R Us stores soon–it’s the LEGO Creator Tiger 30285 set!

LEGO Hobbit Bain Minifigure Exclusive Revealed & Photos!

LEGO Bain Minifigure Exclusive Hobbit Battle of Five Armies DVD Blu Ray Figure

I make it a point to see every movie that comes out that has its own LEGO sets (even “The Lone Ranger” *shudder*), so it won’t shock anybody that I went out New Year’s Eve to see The Hobbit The Battle of Five Armies. The movie was, uh… not my favorite Peter Jackson film, but I did like at least a few of the characters.

And one of them just may be the final LEGO Lord of the Rings figure ever produced–the exclusive LEGO Bain minifigure has now been revealed!

LEGO Slave-I, Detective’s Office, Birds & More Released!

75080 LEGO Star Wars Slave-1 UCS Released

Most people my age stay up partying for hours past midnight on New Year’s Eve. Me? I was in bed within five minutes of the ball dropping on TV. See, it’s important to me to be able to get up bright and early each January 1st, as it’s always quite a big day for LEGO collectors. And today was no exception, as a ton of new-for-2015 LEGO sets became available today online and in the LEGO Stores! And for those not lucky enough to have a local LEGO Store to visit, I went ahead and took a “few” photos this morning…

10246 LEGO Detective’s Office Modular Set Up for Order!

LEGO Detective's Office 10246 Set Contents Front Facade

When grainy photos of the box for the 2015 LEGO Detective’s Office 10246 Modular Building leaked out earlier this week, I did my very best to talk about the set without actually going into any level of detail about it. Why? Because I was saving myself for the beautiful, hi-res images of the LEGO 10246 Dectective’s Office that I knew were only a few days away! Thankfully, I don’t have to exercise restraint anymore–the LEGO Detective’s Office modular building has finally been fully revealed, and now I can talk about the set freely in all its glory!

UPDATE 1/1/2015: The LEGO Detective’s Office is now available for order online!

LEGO Birds 21301 LEGO Ideas 2015 Set Released!

LEGO Birds 21301 Box LEGO Ideas January 2015

While she’s traditionally not a LEGO fan, lately Ideas is striking all of the right chords with my wife! First, they came out with the awesome (and quickly sold-out) LEGO Research Institute 21110 set of female scientist minifigures, which appealed to my wife professionally (what with her being a science teacher and all). And now, the latest fan-designed set plays on my wife’s favorite recreational interest: birding! Coming in January 2015–Birds 21301, the ninth Ideas set!

UPDATE 1/1/2015: The LEGO Birds set is available for order online today!

Exclusive 2015 LEGO Lightning Lad Minifigure LEGO DC Super Heroes

Well, now–! I’m not surprised to see another 2015 LEGO Exclusive set uncovered (what with the crazy number of leaks in the last month), but I am definitely surprised by the content of this set.

2015 LEGO Store Exclusives Sets & Promos List!

Posted on by

Y’know, it’s a good thing that I prefer talking about LEGO to just about anything else in the world, because the news just keeps on rolling in–holidays or no holidays! This week, a colossal leaked list popped up, which (if true) revealed and confirmed the majority of the exclusive 2015 LEGO Store sets and promos! Here’s my thoughts on the items on the supposed list (and its validity)…
