Lars Silberbauer has announced that he has left The LEGO Group to join MTV Digital Studios as Senior Vice President. For the past seven years, Lars has been with LEGO and his most recent position was Senior Global Director of Social Media and Video. He was known for transforming LEGO social media presence from literally nothing to being one of the most successful ones on the web and becoming a global digital leader. Back in 2014, Lars launched LEGO TV in 24 different markets and now the LEGO YouTube Channel gets more than a billion views a year, delivering LEGO content throughout the world. This is on top of the traffic that the LEGO Facebook Page gets which is close to approaching 13 million likes.

Huge news has come out of Target as they have uploaded the official images of the upcoming LEGO Overwatch sets. They were actually fairly hard to get I had to jump through several hoops to get them but they are public and can be easily found through the Target Registry App. There are six sets in the wave, both minifigure scale and brick-built so there’s something for everyone. There are, however, some more or less popular characters that are not included like my main, Lucio. Hopefully there’s another wave so we can at least get the full roster lineup. Tracer vs. Widowmaker (75970) – 129 pieces/$14.99 Contains Tracer, Widowmaker Hanzo vs. Genji (75971)- 197 pieces/$19.99 Contains Hanzo, Genji Dorado Showdown (75972) – 419 pieces/$29.99 Contains Soldier 76, Reaper, McCree D.Va & Reinhardt (75973) – 455 pieces/$39.99 Contains D.Va, Reinhardt Bastion (75974) – 602 pieces/$49.99 Watchpoint: Gibraltar (75975) – 730 pieces/$89.99 Contains...
Here’s a nice surprise that has recently showed up on LEGO’s servers. The new 2018 LEGO Seasonal Reindeer Head Christmas Ornament (5005253) has been uploaded to the servers and that means more than likely the exclusive ornament will be a gift-with-purchase set this holiday season. There are no details on the availability at this time it’s nice to see it return after taking a year off last year. We’ll most likely see how to get it when the December 2018 LEGO Store Calendar comes out in a few week. Below are my reviews of the LEGO Christmas ornaments from the previous years. 2014 Christmas Train (5002813)2015 Christmas Tree (5003083)2016 Toy Soldier (5004420) The post LEGO Seasonal 2018 Reindeer Head Christmas Ornament (5005253) Revealed appeared first on The Brick Fan.
