halloween 2016 haul

Boo!
Boo!

Happy Halloween! Brick or treat? Both!

My wife and I decided to treat ourselves with some bricks on our first Halloween in the United Kingdom. Our Halloween 2016 haul is more like 2015, for everything we bought were stuff from last year (and we're both not a fan of this year's spooky set. Is that a walrus vamp?). Needless to say, they're on sale.

For our first and only set, we purchased the Trick or Treat Halloween Set [40122].

We spotted this cute little vignette in our local Sainsbury's. It used to retail for £8.49 but they were selling the set for only £7, then they marked it further down to £5.60! This is our first ever vignette and it has inspired us to make similar projects in the future. Good thing I chose this over some spooky sweets.

For the next items, we used a voucher from WHSmith taking £5 off from at least £15 worth of kids' books or toys. Fortunately, our local store still has a few Minifigures Series 14: Monsters [71010] bags left. To be specific, there were six bags on the shelf. The exact quantity we need to avail of the promo.

Out of the six bags, only one is a duplicate (to my younger sister's delight). For this haul, we got Zombie Businessman, Wolf Guy, Square Foot, Zombie Pirate, and Specter.

These guys will now join my Monster Scientist, Plant Monster, Tiger Woman, and Gargoyle. I still need to hunt down seven more minifigures to complete the set (I'm late. I know!). Not to mention my desire to have a cool Yeti from Series 11 [71002] to complement my cute Square Foot.

How about you guys? Brick or treat?

Happy Halloween!

LEGO nexo knights magazine issue 10

LEGO Nexo Knights Issue 10 The LEGO Nexo Knights Magazine Issue 10 is currently on sale, and there's more than one free gift! Before everything else, I would like to apologize for two things. First, for the brief hiatus. Life happened . I'll still try to blog as often as possible though. I'll try my best. Second, for this very tardy post. Issue 10 came out last 16 November but for some reason our local shops don't have it. I have to literally travel downhill to purchase one in the big supermarket. Fortunately, they still have a few on the shelf. And to my surprise, it's a bumper issue! That means it's £1 more expensive. But good thing my bonus toy is a Lava Warrior, so that basically offsets the extra pound. And who says no to army building? I wonder what the others got... Lava Warrior Issue 10's free gift is insanely cool! Ladies and gentlemen, the Mech Bot! Mech Bot The Mech Bots are featured heavily in this issue's comics. They were worn by the Nexo K...

LEGO star wars magazine: issue 15

LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 15 LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 15 has just been released , and this month's free gift is the iconic AT-AT! The All Terrain Armored Transport, or AT-AT for short, is a four-legged combat walker used by the Empire's  ground forces . It first appeared   in The Empire Strikes Back , then prominently featured in Star Wars Rebels , and, more recently, also seen in The Force Awakens (as background wreckage). Older versions seems to be in the  Rogue One: A Star Wars Story , but they may (or may not) be under a different name ( UPDATE: They are apparently called All Terrain Armored Cargo Transport or AT-ACT ).  Being one of the most famous symbols of the Empire's military might, it's no surprise that the AT-AT is the microbuild of Issue 15 . AT-AT So far, the AT-AT is my favorite magazine microbuild (next to the  Naboo Starfighter). I simply love its minimalist look. With only 48 brick pieces, it's a wonder that it accuratel...
