September 2015 – new LEGO sets & promotions

by Thita (admin) on September 1, 2015

September is super exciting because of the new LEGO Star Wars set related to the upcoming film. In addition, a new month means new promotions, so let’s take a look at what LEGO has to offer us this time! 🙂

➡ LEGO CREATOR TOY SHOP & FREE SET: The freebie this month is the #30284 LEGO Creator Tractor, available with any $50 purchase from September 1-20. It is not particularly special, but it’s free, so we can’t complain. Also, LEGO VIP members will have early access to the #10249 LEGO Creator Winter Village Toy Shop starting on September 16th. If you plan to get this set I recommend to buy it as soon as it is available as the LEGO Winter Village sets always sell out early. General release will be on October 1st, but by that time it is likely the set will be on backorder and hard to find. See preview here: LEGO Winter Village Toy Shop Coming! and find it under the LEGO Creator section of the Online LEGO Shop.

➡ LEGO STAR WARS FREE POSTER & NEW SETS: September is going to be huge for LEGO Star Wars as the new “Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens” sets will be unveiled on September 4th, also referred to as “Force Friday”. We will talk about the sets in more detail on that day. In addition, the fifth LEGO Star Wars Collectible Poster will be available from September 21-27 with any LEGO Star Wars purchase. As we have discussed previously (see: LEGO Star Wars Posters Collection for 2015), there are six free collectible posters – one for each episode – but the time you can get them is quite short so you need to pay attention to the dates. Once available, find the new sets at the LEGO Star Wars section of the Online LEGO Shop.

➡ LEGO NINJAGO VIP POINT & TEMPLE OF AIRJITZU: The #70751 LEGO Ninjago Temple of Airjitzu is now available to the general public not just LEGO VIP members. Please note that this is a LEGO exclusive, so it is only available directly from LEGO, and perhaps some select retailers. It is a gorgeous set that we have reviewed in detail a few days ago (see: LEGO Ninjago Temple of Airjitzu Review). In addition, LEGO VIP members will get Double VIP Points on the #70748 LEGO Ninjago Titanium Dragon, and the #70749 LEGO Ninjago Enter the Serpent sets during the entire month. All the sets are listed at the LEGO Ninjago section of the Online LEGO Shop.

➡ LEGO IDEAS WALL-E: While the release of the #21303 LEGO Ideas WALL-E set was scheduled for the beginning of this month, it was pushed back towards the end of the month due to some minor quality issues with the neck. It is however available at some retailers, so you could either buy it now, or wait until the improved version gets released. Also, don’t forget about the #21302 LEGO Ideas The Big Bang Theory that was released last month. You can find it under the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

➡ LEGO COLLECTIBLE MINIFIGURES: Dare to collect all the new monster-themed minifigures in Series 14! Have frightful fun with 16 all-new, monster-themed minifigures in Series 14 of the LEGO Minifigures Collection! Each minifigure comes in a sealed ‘mystery’ bag with one or more accessories, display plate and collector’s leaflet. Enter the monsters’ universe with this spine-chilling collection, including a Crazy Scientist, Fly Monster, Wacky Witch, Gargoyle, Monster Rocker, Spider Lady, Banshee, Specter, Skeleton Guy, Square Foot, Tiger Woman, Werewolf, Zombie Pirate, Zombie Cheerleader, Zombie Businessman and a Plant Monster. Available under the LEGO Minifigures section of the Online LEGO Shop.

➡ LEGO SEASONAL HOLIDAY SETS: Getting ready for the fall and winter holidays, LEGO added several new items to their seasonal section. There is the really cute #40122 LEGO Trick or Treat set for Halloween. And also all three of the LEGO Advent Calendars are now available: #75097 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar, #60099 LEGO City Advent Calendar and #41102 LEGO Friends Advent Calendar. You can find them all under the Seasonal Items section of the Online LEGO Shop.

#40122 LEGO Trick or Treat Halloween Set

This month the big thing is undoubtedly going to be LEGO Star Wars, but don’t forget about the huge wave of new sets that were released last month! If you are planning to get several sets to meet the minimum for free shipping, I would suggest you also check out those to pad your order. You can read the detailed list of new sets from August here: August 2015 – New LEGO Sets & Promotions. Some of the highlights include the new LEGO Ninjago sets, the new LEGO Friends sets, new LEGO Elves sets, new LEGO Scooby-Doo sets, new LEGO Minecraft sets, new LEGO Technic sets and more. You can find links to details and reviews at the end of this posts.

Watch the LEGO Elves webisodes!

by Thita (admin) on August 31, 2015

in LEGO Mini-Doll Sets

Besides the full episode of LEGO Elves that tells the story of Emily Jones visiting the magical land of the elves (watch here: LEGO Elves: Unite the Magic – Full Episode), there is also a series of webisodes with shorter side-stories. If you enjoyed the main episode I think you will like these ones also. So far 4 videos have been released, and you can watch them below. 🙂

➡ LEGO ELVES WEBISODE #1 – CRUSHING IT: In this episode Emily and her elven friends are testing to see if someone amongst them has a crush. And since Farran is the only boy amongst the friends, this can create a conflict amongst the girls.

➡ LEGO ELVES WEBISODE #2 – ELVES GOT TALENT: In this episode Emily and the elves convince shy Naida to dance with them, and together they make a new dance routine.

➡ LEGO ELVES WEBISODE #3 – CRIB NOTE: In this episode Emily gives you a tour of the homes of the elves. Curiously, Azari doesn’t have a home and stays at the homes of the other elves.

➡ LEGO ELVES WEBISODE #4 – NEVER CAVE: The elves tell Emily a strange story from when they were little. This episode is particularly nice because you can see the elves when they were kids – very cute.

It is likely that LEGO will continue adding more of these short webisodes until the next main episode comes out sometime next year. Also, remember that two new LEGO Elves sets were just recently released. Links to reviews are at the end of this article. You can find both new sets, along with the whole LEGO Elves collection, at the Online LEGO Shop.

So what do you think? How do you like the stories and characters of LEGO Elves? Would you like to see more sets released in the LEGO Elves line in the future? Feel free to share in the comment section below! 😉
