And to keep on the movie theme, a longer trailer is out.

On Black Friday, they are putting the entirety of The Lego Movie as an 'ad' before the sequel trailer on YouTube

quote:

So if you search for “Brick Friday” or “LEGO Movie 2” on YouTube, you’ll see a promoted video from Warner Bros. with the new trailer for “The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part.” If you click on the video, you’ll also have the option to watch “The Lego Movie” in its entirety, ad-free (as the movie itself is the ad).

Pretty sure the LEGO Movie 2 is a sneaky way of getting people to be OK with the Friends style minifig.

Totally cool with that, they actually look pretty good. Shame they have so little articulation, which is kind of weird given they're meant to be more doll-like.

I'm hoping for some bigger, awesome sets from TLM2. But those look neat, too!

The four other sets are probably larger sets if I had to guess since there aren't any massive ones in this release

Oh gently caress me, I'm going to be buying like 12 of that. I bought 6 Exo-Suits to get a dozen green classic space figs.

Also, I notice Emmet's Dream House has Unikitty with the spiky tail, AFAIK, the only other set besides the SDCC exclusive to have it. Finally be able to build both expressions from the exclusive!

Hell yeah. I'll definitely be buying a few of that set as well. Also really want that Mad Max looking car. 49.99 is actually less than I was expecting.

BSS is going to sell out immediately and every time for a while. $10 is just asking for abuse. I'm glad it's not super expensive, but man...at least we should be able to get it from the website.

Well, of course I know him.

I’m gonna need Emmet’s Dream House and 4 of those classic Space packs. I really dig the color scheme and aesthetic of the Rex set too.

These sets really make me regret not picking up any of the original LEGO Movie sets.

I like that the pink one is a dude.

That's pretty unheard of to have 5 desirable minifigs in a $10 set. Not to mention the classic space printed parts. That set is going to get hoovered up by adult nerds like crazy. I will be one of them.

Erm ...why is Lenny pink and Jenny white? The answer is probably some complicated explanation about my conservative ideas about gender (or that Kenny is gay), but in the context of happy old time retro space lego I'd have expected it the other way round ... simply because in the 80ie the pink one usually was the girl.

*ahem* you mean 25 desirable minifigs in a 50 dollar set, right?!


Hey I’ve been meaning to ask this... are coattails really this lovely or am I doing something very wrong?




They’re loving gigantic.

It looks like they reused the ones from The Lego Batman movie's Joker, which were supposed to be comically oversized.

2 holes. No. And yes, same as the Joker, I guess. But even that one the implementation is just awful.

What if they were comically 12 real world inches long? I’m just saying they look fairly dissonant with the toy.

Just looking at half a dozen pics make it look like there's four holes so it wraps around properly.

Also it's a pity that y'all have terrible taste in ridiculous clown costumes, because those tails are rad as poo poo.

As someone who does love Classic Space, that is exactly how I've felt about so much stuff everyone freaks out over but I have little to no interest in, like Star Wars, Harry Potter and Voltron. But as long as I can get two or three of the space squad I'd be happy.

Don't judge me.
Bit of a shame how there's no modernized blue spaceman in it that isn't benny. He's a bit too distinct to have multiples of. Maybe they could have given him a default alt face and a fixed helmet in the box.
