LEGO is continuing the trend of making many of the 2013 LEGO sets available at their website and retail stores before Christmas. Another theme that was just listed at their website is the 2013 LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. They won’t be available for purchase until the 17th of December, but at least you can look at the details and decide if they are for you. We discussed the LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme before so I won’t go into great detail (see previous articles at the end of this post), but I will give you the links to check them out yourself. 😉

I know many old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles fans are excited about this new LEGO theme, while others can’t relate much. Time will tell if this collaboration between LEGO and the TMNT franchise will work out on the long term. But at least we will get the six sets above, so if you are interested to collect the Turtles and other characters, this is your chance! (There is at least two versions of each of the Turtles in these sets.)

So what do you think? Will the LEGO Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles theme be successful? Will you get the sets yourself? Would love to hear your opinion, so feel free to share in the comment section below! 🙂

I’m not sure when the other, smaller 2013 LEGO Friends sets will be added to LEGO’s website, but I would suggest to keep an eye out for them. LEGO may add those early as well. Here is the link to the LEGO Friends page: LEGO Friends at the Online LEGO Shop

LEGO Friends have been hugely successful with girls, many of them even taking up the LEGO hobby when previously had shown no interest. LEGO got heavy criticism that the sets are promoting too much “girly” activities, although LEGO made an endeavor from the beginning to add sets that focus on science, hobbies and crafts. (And what is exactly wrong with being a girly girl?) In the 2013 LEGO Friends sets we will get even more variety with Emma practicing karate, Mia magic tricks, and Stephanie playing soccer. You can check out all the 2013 LEGO Friends sets here: 2013 LEGO Sets: LEGO Friends – More Coming! And see the currently available LEGO Friends sets here: LEGO Friends at the Online LEGO Shop

What do you think of the new LEGO Friends sets? I know a lot of adults get these sets just for the accessories and the lovely colors. How do you like them? What else would you wish Friends would do? Share your thoughts in the comment section below! 😉
