Additional LEGO Star Wars Han Solo Sets Revealed!

Promobricks have shared official images of a couple of new LEGO Star Wars sets based on the Solo: A Star Wars Story anthology. Now that the film had its run in cinemas, I guess LEGO has finally allowed the release of these images. Frankly, I have not seen the movie yet so I really cannot comment on the particular scenes in which these sets may be referencing to.

Nevertheless, these sets come with new minifigure molds and pieces that are quite interesting. Newbie YouTuber LEtsGO has also uploaded several 360 videos of these new sets that give a better perspective on what to expect from them. As a side note, and if you can still recall way back in May of last year, I shared my predictions on what new LEGO sets we can expect from Solo based on the films preliminary designs and sketches that were released to the public. As it turned out, the Cloud-Rider Swoop Bikes and Imperial AT-Hauler both made it to the fold, with LEGO doing a good job rendering them into actual sets. Check out these images.

LEGO Star Wars Imperial Landing Craft (75221) Box Art Images and Product Description Released

German Star Wars fan site StarWarsCollector.de has released the official product description for the LEGO Star Wars Imperial Landing Craft (75221), including its box art images. First unveiled to LEGO Star Wars fans during this year’s New York Toy Fair, the Imperial Landing Craft is a larger remake of its earlier (and less accurate) model (set 7659) launched in 2007. This newer version of the Imperial Landing Craft is noticeably larger at 636 pieces. It also features a different set of minifigures including: a Sandtrooper Squad Leader, Sandtrooper, Imperial Shuttle Pilot, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and R2-D2. This new LEGO Star Wars set is expected to arrive in store shelves in August, retailing for $89.99

Here’s a rough Google Translation of its official product description   of the LEGO Star Wars Imperial Landing Craft (75221), together with its box art images.

WATCH: New LEGO Incredibles Video Game Launch Trailer

The LEGO Incredibles video game is already out, and to celebrate its release in the US (with a UK and Europe release date of July 13), WB Games has uploaded a new, live-action launch trailer that shows video game fun is best experienced together with the rest of the family. Watch this.

As far as the new video game trailer is concerned, this is the first time that we get a glimpse of Jack-Jack’s vast array of powers, and how awesome he can be both offensively and defensively. True to its cinematic roots, Jack-Jack’s video game character has the ability to shape-shift, turning himself to a flame-engulfed super, to an immensely dense, solid steel, walking paper weight. How I wish we can have that chrome plated version of him in minifigure form.

Disney and Pixar’s Incredibles 2 is now showing in cinemas, and in case you haven’t tried your gaming hands on this latest LEGO video game offering, you can now order your copy of the LEGO Incredibles via Amazon, retailing for $60.

Happy gaming!

Will The Rumored LEGO James Bond Set Finally Become Real?

LEGO caused quite a stir in the LEGO community recently with its cryptic post (which is more like a question) about their plans of coming up with a ‘special’ Secret Service model befitting of a top-notch agent. In fact, even British luxury car manufacturer car Aston Martin, and James Bond ‘himself’ joined in the discussions with their respective tweets hinting on the shape of things to come.

From the look of things, LEGO is definitely hinting on a new set that will feature a brick-built model of the classic James Bond vehicle, the Aston Martin DB5. After the teaser announcement, the LEGO fan community were more than thrilled to see the possibility of seeing a next LEGO Creator Expert set focused on this iconic vehicle. Furthermore, this theory is further strengthened by the fact that a particular LEGO Ideas project review stage qualifier did not make it to the cut because of the fact that LEGO has been working on a ‘similar project’. Brickfinder tells us that during the recent LEGO Fan Media Days, LEGO Ideas lead designer Samuel Johnson was kind enough to explain why the third 2017 LEGO Ideas Review qualifier Jaguar E-Type Roadster by Ozzyeatingbats was not considered. It is not because the set is less appealing over the next LEGO Ideas set which is JKBrickworks’ Pop-Up Book, but because as it turned out, LEGO was also developing a set which is much like that of the Jaguar. “It clashed with another product that is coming up”, Johnson disclosed.

Now I’m not quite sure if this is a single, one time D2C set under the LEGO Creator Expert theme (though most signs point towards that possibility), or maybe it could be a start of a new line of LEGO James Bond sets which if you remember, was rumored to be a part of the now discontinued LEGO Dimensions theme. Now that LEGO’s toys-to-life arm is essentially dead, and that LEGO has teased on this Aston Martin set, the obvious question in every LEGO fan’s mind is, are we going to see a LEGO James Bond minifigure that will go along with this iconic vehicle? In retrospect, could there be some weight in those rumors that we heard last year about a LEGO James Bond set, or something close to that? Though the rumor was dismissed as a hoax by some of the most prominent names in the LEGO community who claims to have insider info, I couldn’t help but think that this recent development may actually give some credence to what we heard last year.

In any case, regardless if LEGO did or did not actually came up with James Bond-inspired set, it will be absolutely cool to see this legendary spy rendered in actual minifigure form. And what better way to complement this with an equally sleek and handsome Aston Martin.

So what do you guys think? Do you believe that we will be seeing a James Bond minifig along with his brick-built Aston Martin? Share your comments below.

LEGO BrickHeadz Jack Skellington and Sally (41630) Is Finally Arriving!

Perhaps one of the most unusual – and on that grounds, most successful – team-up projects in Disney’s history is the clay-animation masterpiece The Nightmare Before Christmas, conceived and produced by the wonderfully gothic fantasy mind of Tim Burton for the Touchstone Pictures label (with a later reissue under the Disney name).

On that note, it makes the lead characters of Pumpkin King Jack Skellington and his rag-doll secret admirer Sally, one of the most famous couples in the Disney umbrella. Last month, Wal-Mart spoiled that LEGO will give them the BrickHeadz treatment. Finally we get to see what they look like.

The two LEGO BrickHeadz sets of LEGO Jack and Sally are exactly as one would expect of figures interpreted in the signature BrickHeadz format. It’s interesting to note though that the colorings scheme actually seems to make Sally more vibrant that how she appeared in Nightmare, making it an improvement.

This latest LEGO BrickHeadz dual-pack offering celebrates the film’s 25th year anniversary and features Jack in his trademark monochromatic color scheme, with plenty of black and white printed parts. In contrast, Sally comes in a colorful ragdoll patchwork which makes this dual-set more adorable. The LEGO BrickHeadz Jack Skellington and Sally (41630) will retail for $19.99 and is expected to arrive in stores in October

Here’s What To Expect from Some of The Newer LEGO Harry Potter Sets

During LEGO’s Fan Media Days in Billund last month, Michael Friedrichs of Promobricks had the opportunity of having an interview with LEGO Senior Designer Mark John Stafford to discuss more about the upcoming LEGO Wizarding World Harry Potter sets. The seasoned designer was kind enough to stay for a half-hour talk with Michael, and revealed some interesting facts about two of the theme’s much-awaited sets: the Hogwarts Great Hall (75954) and the Hogwarts Express (75955).

The Hogwarts Great Hall (75954) is the largest LEGO Harry Potter set that belong to the Wizarding World subtheme, coming in at 878 pieces. Other than the new elements that it introduced such as the new magic wands and redesigned minifigures, the set also comes with a special set of stickers, according to Mark. He revealed that set 75954 will come with two sets of stickers that allow builders to customize the brick-built hall using the house crest of their own choice. It’s a pretty neat detail thrown in by LEGO which expands the play features of the set.

The discussions revolving around the Hogwarts Express (75955) centers on a more obvious feature of the set (or the lack of it) – of it being basically a train set, but less the train tracks. According to Mark, the decision not to include train tracks on this set is more of a practical one: to make the set budget friendly for LEGO and Harry Potter fans. The design team also had customization in mind as far as the Hogwarts Express is concerned, designing the set with enough space to install an optional engine and a battery box. Again, this is a thoughtful move from LEGO that allows a wider range of creative play as far as fans of LEGO train sets are concerned. Any existing tracks pieces and power functions elements can easily be attached to this LEGO version of the Hogwarts Express.

The LEGO Hogwarts Express (75955) has 801 pieces and will sell for $79.99 .

Over all, it’s nice to hear these considerations for these upcoming sets, something that LEGO fans of the franchise will surely look forward to. The LEGO Wizarding World and Harry Potter sets are expected to be released in August of this of this year.

LEGO Unveils Three Additional LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz

Just a few minutes ago, LEGO announced three additional LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz via its official Facebook page, following the reveal of the LEGO Star Wars Cloud Rider Swoop Bikes (75215). Other than the recently announced LEGO BrickHeadz Darth Vader (41619) and Stormtrooper (41620), the LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz line expands to include three more familiar characters:

Luke and Yoda (41627); 215 pieces, $14.99

41627

Princess Leia (41628); 124 pieces, $9.99

41628

Boba Fett (41629); 161 pieces, $9.99

41629

If you can recall, this is not the first time that Boba Fett was rendered in BrickHeadz form. The LEGO Star Wars BrickHeadz Boba Fett and Han Solo in Carbonite (41498) was last year’s exclusive NYCC set, and this time, the newer BrickHeadz version of the iconic Star Wars bounty hunter seems to have more printed parts as compared from its predecessor.

Though LEGO hasn’t announced a release date yet, it is likely that these little collectibles will be available in October after the release of the August wave of BrickHeadz.

LEGO Star Wars Cloud Rider Swoop Bikes (75215) First Images Released

It looks like we have our first images for another upcoming LEGO Star Wars set expected to be released early August. Luxembourg-based retailer Electronic-Shop, have listed the LEGO Star Wars Cloud Rider Swoop Bikes (75215) based on the subtheme Solo: A Star Wars Story. It may not be the best quality images that we have about this set, but it is certainly interesting to see what it has to offer. This particular set has been rumored quite heavily among LEGO fan circles considering the speculated presence of Enfys Nest and Weazel, which was a closely guarded secret back then before Solo landed in cinemas last month.

The LEGO Star Wars Cloud Rider Swoop Bikes (75215) comes in at 355 pieces and is expected to retail for $30 USD. Here’s a rough Google Translation of its product description, followed by several images courtesy of Electronic-Shop.

Is LEGO Teasing On A Possible Jurassic Park Visitor Center Set?

So, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom is due to premiere next week (stateside, as some other territories already have it showing). At the same time, LEGO’s various tie-ins to the movie are gradually easing their way into store shelves, alongside sets associated with the movie’s (and the franchise’s) progenitor: Jurassic Park.

It just so happens that this year is the 25th anniversary of that pioneering film directed by Steven Spielberg, explaining the new Jurassic World-inspired LEGO sets coming out. More are expected, such as this set teased by LEGO that calls to mind the climactic scene from the ending stretch of the first film.

If you need a refresher, this is when the surviving people on Jurassic Park are stuck in the Visitors Center surrounded by the raptors, only for the T-Rex to arrive, killing the hunters and roaring gloriously while a banner falls in front of it. This greetings from LEGO spells it out quite well.

 

Rumors lave long abound that there will eventually be a Jurassic Park Visitors Center set put out by LEGO. And while we can speculate about the possibility of seeing this set happen, we don’t know yet if it’s only an interior action set-piece or a whole Visitor Center building teased.

While we wait for this previewed set, and for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’s US premiere, one LEGO Jurassic Park set for its 25th Anniversary has already been officially released, and it’s the one with the raptors in pursuit. The LEGO Jurassic Park Velociraptor Chase (75932) is out now for fandom collectors.

Thanks to The Brick Fan for the heads up.

 

The LEGO US Catalog (June-December 2018) Teases on a New Minifigure Series

Not only does the recently released online LEGO US Catalog 2H 2018 teased on two upcoming LEGO BrickHeadz sets, but it seems that we’ll be seeing the next Collectible Minifigure Series sooner than expected. We’re still swooning with delight on LEGO’s party-themed, commemorative 40th Anniversary CMF Series 18 (71021) minifigs, and it looks like we’re about to get another wave roughly two months from now.

The announcement came in almost as a side note on that particular page in the LEGO US Catalog, and on the rest of its foreign counterparts. The said ‘surprise’ has been rumored to be, within LEGO community and fan forums, to be the LEGO Harry Potter Minifigure Series (71022), which also coincides with the release of the rest of the Wizarding World sets.

scaled EN MEA 94

If you recall way back in 2002, LEGO released four series of collectible Harry Potter minifigure that comes free with qualifying purchases of LEGO Harry Potter sets at that time. The LEGO Harry Potter Minifigure Collection Gallery featured 17 minifigures which you can see below (images courtesy of Brickset):

hp002 hp017 hp022 hp026 hp031

 

With LEGO’s extensive collection of existing LEGO Harry Potter figures, its kind of hard to predict which Harry Potter character will make it to the cut, if indeed the next CMF Series to arrive in August is all about the Wizarding World. I guess we just have to wait until then.

What do you think is this next LEGO CMF series all about? Do you think it is a Harry Potter CMF Series? If so, who do you think will make it to the list? Comment down below.
