The LEGO Movie Sets News and Discussion

[TenorPenny]

The garbage collector uniforms look vague enough to be used for lots of different MOCs. Military, almost.

Strangely enough, it seems like they don't have the Rescue set. Is that an exclusive for Target or Walmart?

Well, Creative Ambush is a Target exclusive.

I cant tell what color their vests are. Orange or green?

Green.

Nice figs from the creative ambush set. Thanks for the link just2good!

I still mainly want the figures instead of the actual sets, but I am loving that Creative Ambush gentleman and lady. The bowler in brown is very welcoming and a new dress print for the female is much needed. Bob's Kabobs is a neat figure too.

The sets will be a big hit with the kids I'd imagine. Some of the pieces will definitely come in handy, but sets I'm still not sure on.

I must say I am absolutely loving the amount of effort put into these sets by the designers! The focus on creativity is something that has been absent from most themes (excluding Creator) for a long time, and the ideas running throughout this theme (a plumbers van that can be rebuilt into an plunger-shooting aircraft? Brilliant!) are great, I have no doubts it will be a smash hit with all audiences.

In terms of pricing for these sets, I am pleasantly surprised, I never expected the Melting Room to be below £20, £13 is a great price! It's good that most of the 2-in-1 builds are at the 30$/£ pricepoint.

In terms of minifigures, the Robo-SWAT figures in these sets look absolutely amazing, along with the civilian and CITY-styled minifigures. All in all, an absolutely fantastic theme.

According to Brick Fanatics, Old Wild West Emmet is the Australian EB Games pre-order bonus with the game. Guess they really won't make more Western LEGO Movie sets....

I'm on mobile, so here's the link! http://brickfanatics.co.uk/first-lego-movie-videogame-pre-order-bonus-revealed/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed:%20brickfanatics%20(Brick%20Fanatics)

Haha. Best pre-order bonus EVER.

I will have to hit Bricklink for the middle 2 figures I think, not fussed for the rest of the set

Someone from the U.A.E. is selling some new promo The LEGO Movie stuff on eBay!

Additionally, this is unrelated, but someone on Brickset said that McDonald's in the UK will have The LEGO Movie Happy Meal stuff in February. Let's hope it's not like the 2008 Batman stuff.

[Freddy Bricker]

I'm not into promo stuff, so that is of little interest to me. But was is to my liking, is that signs are coming up (not actual signs) that we'll be seeing the Lego Movie sets in stores sooner than expected. Well that's my take on it, at least.

[CM4Sci]

Wow, everything is awesome!

YES! Happy Meals for me!

IF IT'S NOT CLASSIC SPACE...IT'S CRAP!

Stopped by Target today and noticed this:

As far as I could tell it was a completely standard black LEGO storage brick, with The LEGO Movie logo slapped on to the packaging because marketing.

[TUROCK_NATOON]

They should used this concept for with other bricks :)

[Blakstone]

I am looking forward to learning about about McDonald's tie in. If they are system compatible bricks or minifigures, count me in.

[Lordofdragonss]

Ok guys. My fellow shop clerk said somethig very important. (At least in Poland) the shops can buy the Movie sets and minifgs ONLY once.

That's quite special. Lego wants to make it a limited edition sets?

[Piranha]

Yes, that is what I think too.

[Sirtank]

I found one minifigure pack mixed in the series 11 figures at my local Toys R us today. It was the Shakespeare figure. No sign of any more packs.
