Disney Castle [71040] It's the LEGO Disney Castle [71040]! Need I say more? My ever-loving wife bought the magical LEGO Disney Castle [71040] for her milestone birthday (and on triple VIP points with about £50 cashback!). As she claimed sole ownership to this huge set, I let her build it on her own. She actually enjoyed the long hours of solo building. She promised me to do a review on her favorite LEGO property. But as t his post has sat on my drafts folder for a few months now, I'm just going to do a gallery instead. Until that promised review was done, this post will remain a gallery (ehem, ehem). Enjoy!

N-POP Girl, Pink Teddy Bear, & Unikitty Sugar and spice, and everything nice. That's what Princess Unikitty and the N-POP Girl are made of! When The LEGO Movie  was released, there were two characters who stole the whole film. One already has released his own feature film (ahem, The LEGO Batman Movie ), and the other will soon have her own TV series. Who's that and what show? It's Unikitty! ! (That's not a typo. The title really has an exclamation point). Unikitty hails from Cloud Cuckoo Land, the capital of rainbows and puppies. She is half unicorn, half anime kitten, and one endless dance party. But don't let her facade fool you. She is one of the LEGO Master Builders who defeated Lord Business! And be careful! Sometimes, Unikitty can lose control of her positive nature and  get enraged. She then  becomes the red Angry Kitty. The only Unikitty brick built figure that I have is from the LEGO Dimensions [71231]. I was still in my dark brick ages when The LEGO Mo...

BB-8-ception BB-8! I mentioned before that I fell in love with  BB-8 [75187]  set ever since I saw it in the previews, and I'm sure I'll fall deeper once I've built it. True enough, I did. Before we go to the adorable droid, can we talk about the box first? BB-8 [75187] The packaging for The Last Jedi  looks very sophisticated and futuristic with its white and red color scheme. It literally goes with anything. Then the LEGO logo in red made everything perfect, complementing the whole look of the box. As if the brick built BB-8 is not adorable enough, the set comes with a minifigure as well. I remember two years ago, with the release of The Force Awakens , it's quite difficult to obtain this famous astromech droid in brick form. Now, it's in almost every LEGO Star Wars set (but that's not a problem. One can never have enough brick droids). The chase minifigure status has now been passed to its emo version, BB-H8 BB-9E, which is so far only included in Kylo Ren...

LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 27 The LEGO Star Wars Magazine Issue 27 is already available and the awesome gift is Rey's Speeder! Finally! the LEGO Star Wars Magazine has finally caught up with The Force Awakens (but then there's Rogue One  and the upcoming The Last Jedi , no pressure)! And what's the best way to represent the new trilogy in this monthly magazine than with Rey herself (though she's just a tiny black round plate). Rey's Speeder Building the model is a lot of fun. The build starts with the hood on an upright position then eventually rotating to gradually reveal the final look. The design is really smart considering the scale, with every detail depicting something, like Rey's salvage bag and her hauls. It just fell a bit flat when placed on a surface. I have to place it on two transparent clear round tiles t o make it appear like it's hovering. Rey's Speeder microbuild reminded me a lot of Luke's Landspeeder (see it in this  post ), and...

September Mini Model Build [40247] The LEGO Store's Monthly Mini Model Build for September is a cutesy dinosaur! For this month, the Mini Model Build not only moved up to the surface, but also traveled back in time. The splashy underwater theme was left behind in favor of this adorable prehistoric reptile. As always, the design is simple and colorful to appeal to the kids targeted in the monthly activity. It comes with a green body, bright red and green spikes, and articulated arms and tail! The head is also movable as it is attached to a turntable piece (though the 360° turn is a bit creepy for me, but I'm sure the little ones will find it funny). Dinosaur If you want to build your own amazing dino, check out the instructions here . It doesn't have to be the exact bricks and the exact color. Be creative and imaginative! Next month's Mini Build is a high-tech robot! It will be available in UK Lego Stores on 5 October, from 1600 to 1800. For more details, contact your lo...

Scarif Stormtrooper [40176] More Rogue One minifigures! One of the freebies in the LEGO Force Friday II offers is the Scarif Stormtrooper [40176] polybag. It's free with any LEGO Star Wars purchase over £25. It's the second from the (hopefully long) series of interlocking Star Wars display sets. The first one is the rebel droid R3-M2 (which I previously made a review post ). At first I thought the series was limited to droids, but we obviously now know that's not the case. The good thing about this is it opened a lot more possibilities! Shoretrooper For the minifigure per se , it appears that the one included in this [40176] polybag is a Shoretrooper Squad Leader, as identified by his sand blue stripe along the top of the chest plate and onto the shoulder guards. Another visual cue is the kama attached to the belt. This is in comparison to the Regular Shoretrooper (all sand-colored armor) in the Battle on Scarif [75171] set, and the Shoretrooper Captain (mostly sand blue-c...

Millennium Falcon VS The First Order Awesome LEGO Millennium Falcon posters! Included in the Force Friday II and Millennium Falcon [75192] launch promotions was the free VIP posters. For LEGO VIP purchase of any Star Wars set, a  Millennium Falcon mini poster was given away, and there's a different one each day! Why limit to VIP? Because it serves as an invitation for the early VIP access to purchase the biggest LEGO set ever! At the back of the poster is the date 14.9.2017 and the website VIP.LEGO.COM . The first poster is a brick version of the chase in Jakku in The Force Awakens , wherein Rey and Finn were trying to evade the First Order. The epic scene was set against a sunset, making it very vivid and colorful. The  Millennium Falcon [75192]  has a feature of switching the model from the latest trilogy to the original one. So, it only makes sense to make a poster depicting the old gang of rebels. For the second poster, the chosen scene was from The Empire Strikes Ba...
