If you’re a LEGO VIP member, you may have received an email this morning regarding some new changes coming to the VIP program in a few months. As I reported on earlier in the month, LEGO will be implementing the digitial VIP card very soon but for those who want the physical card can still get one. I suggest doing that in case they do away with it in the future. VIP accounts has to be registered online with an email address. As a VIP member, we already have a lot of benefits including various promotional gifts, double point events, and early access to product launches that we get throughout the year and it looks like we’ll be getting even more on top of that. In the email, they said there will be an online rewards center that will be launching to introduce a new way to spend your VIP points....

It was only last week that LEGO announced the LEGO Disney Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71024) and they will be available starting on May 1. Some of our fellow European RLFM outlets have started receiving their review copies and we now have some new details of the set. As far as the distribution of the minifigures, there are reported to be two complete sets per box and there will be some rarity in some of the minifigures. Three of them (Huey, Dewie, Louie) will only have two per box which is somewhat disappointing but at least there aren’t any that only one per box like with the Harry Potter series. The breakdown of the Series 2 Disney Collectible Minifigures are as below. 4 per box Mickey MouseMinnie MouseScrooge McDuckChipDaleAnnaElsaHadesFrozone 3 per box JafarJasmineHerculesSallyJack SkellingtonEdna Mode 2 per box HueyDewieLouie We’ll be receiving our review box this Friday so our review of...

Digging holes sucks, just ask anyone who digs holes. And wherever there’s a job that sucks there’s a need for a robot to do that job for us. Luckily there’s DB-Y3, or “Drillbilly” by builder roΙΙi. Drillbilly can not only take care of those needed holes in the ground, he can do so with a wide range of emotions, and anyone who has dug holes will confirm, there’s a spectrum. It goes from quiet resignation to bitter regret and questioning of life choices. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

LEGO Tower was announced for mobile platforms a few days ago which is a game similar to Tiny Towers. One of the details in the game is that there are a wide variety of floors and LEGO is giving you a chance for your own design to be in the game. LEGO Ideas has kicked off a new contest for you to submit your entries to wins some great prizes. In addition to having your floor design be in LEGO Towers when it launches this summer, six winners will also get the LEGO Creator Corner Garage (10264), LEGO Ideas Ship in a Bottle (21313), a $200 shopping spree, as well as a special unlock feature in the game. The entry must be build using a digital building tool like LEGO Digitial Designer or any other LEGO building software. You can check out the full list of rules in the link above....

Have very few regrets in life, but one of them is not getting to see a shuttle launch with my dad. Not that it was an easy thing to do, I live about as far away from Cape Kennedy as you can in the continental US, and my dad lived in Kansas. Any given mission could be scrubbed at the last minute, that’s a long way to travel on a bet. I did eventually get to stand in the shadow of this building, and it’s every bit as impressive as you’d expect. It’s on a scale that’s hard to imagine until you’re actually there. This version by Rphilo004, is a little less intimidating, but still very impressive at micro scale. As we approach the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11, I’m sure we’ll see more builds like this, and I’m personally really looking forward to it. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I have to admit once I got over the temporary paralysis upon first seeing this beauty by ianying616 I thought to myself “Batman would never ride a chrome Batpod”, but upon further thought I’m not so sure. The thing about chrome (and what makes it hard to illustrate, and render for that matter) is it’s not really its own color, but characterized by its environment. It reflects what’s around it, and in Batman’s case, wouldn’t that be the darkened streets of Gotham? Might not be so bad after all. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I continue to be fascinated with builder Moko’s ability to not only make sleek and shapely figures, but to make them so posable. This one doesn’t seem to be based on any particular character, not that I would have any idea who it is anyway, but at least I don’t have to try and learn a bunch of stuff to share with you that I will immediately forget.

So there you are, on a barren, frozen world, having spend months carving out ice caves and trying to survive. You finally get everything just about how you need it and one of these things (brilliantly recreated by Lino M) shows up and blows everything. Probe droids, this is why we can’t have nice things (or secret bases). Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Leslie is a simple man. He likes to read his Sunday paper in his favorite armchair after a filling meal. I mean, what's not to like about that? I’m sure we can all agree that Leslie’s plan, as well as this MOC by justin_m_winn, are fabulous in every way, shape, and form. I think we should all be more like Leslie and embrace the laziness we all deserve. Original linkOriginal author: Andrew E
