The Lego Movie



Finally! An update on The Lego Movie! For those of you who had not heard about it before this, it's Lego's second feature-length film (if you consider The Adventures of Clutch Powers (2010) as one, which wasn't exactly, in all respect... That good), and will include voice actors Chris Pratt, Will Ferrel, Morgan Freeman, Liam Neeson, Will Arnett, Elizabeth Banks, Nick Offerman, and Alison Brie (wow, I know a few of those people :P). It is being produced by Village Roadshow Pictures and is planned to be in theaters February 14 2014. (It's hitting theaters Valentine's Day People!) Here is the official press release from iMDB:

"The LEGO Movie follows Emmet, an ordinary, rules-following, perfectly average LEGO minifigure
who is mistakenly identified as the most extraordinary person and the key to saving the world. Emmet
(Chris Pratt) is drafted into a fellowship of strangers on an epic quest to stop an evil tyrant, a journey
for which he is hopelessly and hilariously under prepared."

I, personally, can't wait too see what they come up with. I mean come on, it's in theaters!

This is the Lego Spy, out.

10234 Sydney Opera House

Click to view larger

Hey everyone, Lego Spy here with some Lego news: 10234 Sydney Opera House from the Creator theme.
This set is so awesome! It even includes an awesomely overpriced price tag! -_- ($319.99 USD, wow.)
This set is pretty neat and definitely crushes it's predecessor, 21012 Sydney Opera House from the Architecture theme (270 pieces, $39.99 USD). This set features 2,989 pieces and amazing detail. Look at the white section's curves, and the way it all seems to flow. :-) What do you think about it? This is the Lego Spy, out.

70701 Swarm Interceptor

Hi everyone, I thought I might start a series where I take a set review I've posted on Lego.com. For the first one I thought I'd do a Galaxy Squad set: 70701 Swarm Interceptor. Here is a link to 70701 on the Lego Shop website. Sorry for those who don't speak English. For your assistance here is a link to the Microsoft Translator page to translate my reviews. :-)

Lego Analysis + Ewok Village

Hello everyone, sorry I haven't posted in a LONG time but I finally have some time to try out my new Lego Analysis! I love Legos but sometimes their setups are somewhat "odd". Also note that this is all in fun and that I am in no way attempting to criticize Lego. :-) Take this set for example: 60014 Coast Guard Patrol. At first sight, the box looks completely normal. It's not until you start to look at it closely that things start to seem a little unusual. Let's start this one off now with the aforementioned set:
Here is the box, looks normal right? (sorry for the no-good picture :P)
Here comes the weird stuff:
"What are we supposed to do with these yellow things!?"
"Anyone want a popsicle?"
"Check out the cool sub doggy!"
Why aren't they wearing their life jackets? What's with the popsicle? What are those two looking at? ^^^
"See anything up there?" "No, I think we better think about headin' home for the day."
Oh my gosh I'm sorry about the picture. :-(
None of them are looking at the crashed boat! Seriously, they seem to be completely ignoring these people offering them popsicles and awing at their epic submarine!

Hope you liked it and I'll try to get another one up soon! BTW the new Lego Ewok Village has been announced and will be released on September 1st! :-)

This is the Lego Spy, out. :-)
