LEGO holiday deals & promotions begin!

by Thita (admin) on October 5, 2013

Traditionally October is the month when LEGO begins their holiday promotions, and this year they don’t disappoint either. There are several LEGO deals as well as new products available. So let’s see what we got! 🙂

First of all, you can earn double VIP Points on all LEGO purchases. This is valid both at the Online LEGO Shop and at LEGO-brand stores. If you are a LEGO fan, and not a VIP member yet, make sure you sign up. Membership is free and you will earn points when you shop for LEGO, get access to VIP exclusive LEGO sets, promotions, etc. There is absolutely no downside to it. Double VIP points is a rare occurrence, allowing you to earn points much faster, so take advantage of it! This offer is valid from October 1st-31st. VISIT THE ONLINE LEGO SHOP

The free LEGO Star Wars Clone Trooper Lieutenant offer from September continues this month! You can get one with any LEGO Star Wars purchases of $50 or more. This offer is valid in the USA and Canada only from October 1st-31st. SHOP FOR LEGO STAR WARS SETS

Also, from October 14th-31st you can get a free exclusive #40082 LEGO Creator Holiday Set when you spend $99 or more at LEGO-brand stores, or at the Online LEGO Shop. There will be a second LEGO Creator Holiday Set (#40083) available during the Black Friday weekend (November 29th-December 2nd).

Both of these LEGO Creator Holiday Sets are excellent additions to the #10235 LEGO Winter Village Market, as well as the rest of the LEGO Winter Village series: SHOP FOR LEGO WINTER VILLAGE SETS

There are several new products that have been released this month. The #10235 LEGO Winter Village Market is now available for everyone, not just VIP members. Also, the #21018 LEGO Architecture United Nations Headquarters have been added to the LEGO Architecture series. We haven’t talked about this set before, but I will write up a review soon. Here is a list of newly listed LEGO sets: WHAT’S NEW AT THE ONLINE LEGO SHOP

And don’t forget that LEGO is offering free shipping on all orders over $75, so you can really stack up your savings and freebies. This offer is ongoing. FREE SHIPPING AT THE ONLINE LEGO SHOP

It looks like October is shaping up to be an exciting month (well, maybe not so exciting for our wallet). What do you think? Are you planning to take advantage of any of these offers and start your holiday LEGO shopping? What’s on our wish-list? What are you getting? Feel free to share and discuss in the comment section below! Happy huntin’! 😉

LEGO Super Heroes Batgirl minifig revealed!

by Thita (admin) on October 4, 2013

in LEGO Super Heroes

(Written by HP)

Looks like LEGO factories are full of security holes. General Cryptor minifigures from the 2014 LEGO Ninjago line have been showing up on eBay in the past week or so (likely escapees from the LEGO factory in Mexico), and now another interesting minifigure leaked; Batgirl from the upcoming 2014 LEGO Super Heroes DC Universe series, shared by BrickLink member votvic from the Czech Republic (another place LEGO has a large factory). 🙂

Here is a picture of the LEGO Batgirl minifigure. As you can see she got a unique headpiece, which shows her hair flowing out of her mask. She comes with a double sided head, and her torso is printed both on the front and back. Her legs are plain black. Her cape appears to be missing. This version of Batgirl is obviously based on the new 52 Batgirl from DC Comics, as she looks exactly like on the cover of the comic-book.

It’s about time LEGO made an official minifig of Batgirl! She was actually released as a microfigure in the #50003 Batman Game from the LEGO Games series, but the game was later canceled. She also appears in the LEGO Batman video-games. In LEGO Batman 2 she is fairly close to the new minifigure version.

Batgirl will most likely appear in the #76013 LEGO Super Heroes Joker Steam Roller set scheduled to be released next year. For your reference here is the list of LEGO Super Heroes DC sets coming in 2014 as we discussed in 2014 LEGO Sets News & Rumors…

#76010 LEGO Super Heroes The Penguin Face Off (with Batman, the Penguin, and 2 Robot Penguin Henchmen)
#76011 LEGO Super Heroes Man-Bat Attack (with Batman, Robin, and Man-Bat)
#76012 LEGO Super Heroes The Riddler Chase (with Batman, the Riddler, and the Flash)
#76013 LEGO Super Heroes The Joker Steam Roller (with Batman, the Joker, and 3 other minifigs)

So, what do you think of the new LEGO Batgirl minifigure? Do you like her new headpiece and printing? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section below! And for currently available LEGO DC Super Heroes sets check out the Online LEGO Shop.
