Every year LEGO releases exclusives at San Diego Comic-Con and this year is no different. Star Wars themes have always been favourites. It’s back again this year with a build showcase of the cockpit segment of the Millennium Falcon featuring Han Solo and Chewbacca. Looking at the elements, fans would rejoice as it seems that there are no unique parts to build this on your own. Both Minifigures come from the recent Kessel Run Millennium Falcon (75212). What is unique is the box that’s designed and shaped like a VHS box with line art instead of photorealistic scene. Collectors of boxed sets would certainly want to have this in their collection simply for the uniqueness of that old-school look. 2018 San Diego Comic-Con will begin on Thursday, 19 July and ends on Sunday, 22 July The post San Diego Comic-Con 2018 LEGO Exclusive revealed [News] appeared first on The Brothers Brick....

Of all the beloved Muppet Show characters, Statler and Waldorf are certainly near the top of my list. I would venture to guess that these cantankerous hecklers are a huge favorite for many people. That must definitely be the case for one superb builder, Alex de Jong, who recreated this iconic duo in spectacular LEGO fashion. 5 months of work over 2.5 years went into this build! We are incredibly impressed by the level of dedication! At over 10,000 pieces, this build is packed with attention to detail, and brings back a ton of nostalgia for these famous characters. Fortunately for us, Alex did a great job of documenting his creative process. He started with Waldorf and used some fun techniques to shape his face. The recreation of Statler also has a remarkable resemblance to the original. Together, they are easily recognizable as the iconic pair. Alex loves to constantly alter...

This is Bob the Alien. Bob the Alien is a salesman. He manages a whole department. Bob works for his manager David Liu. David taught Bob everything he knows and helped him to be where he is today. In fact, one could say Bob only exists today because of David. Bob the Alien hates Mondays. Mondays are when he’s stuck at his desk doing paperwork. He would rather be outdoors meeting clients and delivering them his bestseller product, the LV-426 catalytic converters. There are times when Bob forgets some of his appointments. He’s pretty sure his neighbouring desk buddy, Peter messes with his calendar. The strange thing is Bob has never met Peter ever since he joined the firm, but he could always feel the presence of Peter the Predator. This is Bob when he closes a deal. It must be a big win today. It pays the rent and it...

One.  Million.  That's... a really, really large number.  It's so large, in my view, that in most contexts it doesn't even make sense.  Think about it for a second.  Would you ever consider counting to a million?  (One guy did it in 2007; it took him 3 months.)  How many people do you know who have or have done a million... of anything? Somehow, this month the JANGBRiCKS channel on YouTube passed the one million subscriber mark.  That's now ten times what I originally thought I could one day earn if I worked diligently and basically did everything just right after I started taking the channel more seriously a half decade ago.  A lot has changed in the online world since then, though, with YouTube's own growth further exceeding all expectations, raising the ceiling of possibility for all of its creators with it.So here I am today with one million subscribers, and...

Eyyy I haven't forgotten about LEGO Friends!  I have to dramatically cut back on my coverage of the line (and its offshoots) due to:YouTube's aggressively antagonistic algorithms that ruthlessly punish not only videos that under-perform relative to others on a given channel, but other videos that follow as well.The overwhelming volume of products LEGO now releases every year, forcing me to either work an unhealthy amount and review everything, or be selective and live a manageable life.A personal lack of interest in many of the past year's Friends & Elves sets.At least #3 has been pushed to the side now with the new racing-themed lineup, so while being mindful of #2 I have decided to review at least a couple of the latest Friends products, maybe more if I get the chance.Video: LEGO Friends Drifting Diner review! ? 41349Original linkOriginal author: theJANG
