Coming to you from the 2014 Toy Fair in New York City, here is a gallery of LEGO updates. More info below.
I really liked the AT-AT above, but it’s an obvious choice. (A great choice). But I was pleasantly surprised by the Cantina set from Star Wars: A New Hope. I love the display / play balance here. There are several spots to play out many aspects of the Cantina scene, and it’s a great centerpiece for displaying your Star Wars collection.
We’ve seen gimmicks in the past, but I love these fun mini fighters, you got almost every area covered, and you get ship and a figure, and it’s a quick build. Check out the gallery for more.
We all loved the awesome Lego Movie. Several sets are available now, but we got a peak at some new sets that haven’t hit yet. You could, I dunno, BUILD A SPACESHIP!! Yes! Finally! we can get the classic 80s astronaut. (Haha, yes, being so excited about finally getting a 30 year old toy is hilarious to me). Oh you think that’s awesome? Check out this LEGO store exclusive below!
Metal Beard’s Sea Cow is coming out in March and will be retailing for $250, available only at LEGO stores, and their online store. It’s gigantic, and it’s beautiful. Everyone was excited when it was revealed. LEGO went all the way bringing out this playset. It looks fantastic.
The LEGO Cuusoo Ghostbusters Ecto-1 and minifigures was a huge hit. If you’re not familiar, anyone can invent the LEGO set they always dreamed of having. If their set reaches 10,000 supporters, LEGO takes it seriously and pursues the licensing rights and the logistics of bringing the set to production. Last year we saw the Back to the Future Delorean hit shelves. Plan to bust some ghosts in June.
