Star Wars: The Force Awakens Polybags Found! (Poe's X-wing Fighter-30278 & Finn Minifigure-30605)

Both of these images showed up online last night.  I am guessing the Finn minifigure will be part of a Lego promo and the X-wing will just be an item for sale.

2016 Star Wars Ultrabuild Sets *Update*

Just a few short days after posting the list of 2016 Star Wars Ultrabuild Lego sets, an image of all of them surfaced (above).  These sets should be available the latter part of Jan.

Ghostbusters HQ Officially Revealed!

Barely a week after a Toys “R” Us store in Canada leaked the possible existence of the Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters, the actual set has officially been revealed by Lego itself via the company’s Twitter and Facebook accounts this morning.

Available starting in January (sadly a month too late for Christmas) the $350, 4,634-piece set fills two floors with a laboratory, living quarters, the requisite ghost containment unit, and nine Minifigs including Peter, Ray, Egon, Winston, Janine Melnitz, Dana Barrett, Louis Tully, the library ghost, and a zombie ghost driver.

Slimer is also here, included in a trio of non-Minifig ghosts that can be mounted all over the building, and the entire structure opens up for easy play access. Other features of note include the firefighter’s pole that Ray fell in love with, and if you look closely, there’ even mood slime bubbling up through cracks in the sidewalk. All that’s missing is a giant sailor made of marshmallow to make this new set absolutely perfect.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens Special Forces TIE Fighter (30276) available at ToysRUs!

There have also been some rumors about the above pictured Star Wars: The Force Awakens Special Forces TIE Fighter (30276) is now available at ToysRUs and will market for $3.99.  When I was there last night I did not see it and the employees had no idea what I was talking about.

Of course, if you want one now you can get it online for a higher price.

New Batman Minifigure Found

All that is known about the above pictured Batman minifigure with certainty, is that it really comes from a LEGO factory, it is made up of official documents, it is not a custom, and that comes with two sets of flexible plastic wings you see on the pictures. There is not any pad printing on the back or on the legs.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO

I was at ToysRUs last night and stumbled across the new LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens C-3PO (5002948) minifigure. They are selling for $3.99 each or you can wait for the promotion coming in November or December.

Cosmic Boy (DC Superheroes) Minifigure

There is no indication on if this will be an exclusive or part of a set, however, I will keep you informed as more information comes along.  Could there be a new movie, TV show, or cartoon?
