2016 LEGO Star Wars Carbon-Freezing Chamber Photos!

LEGO Star Wars Carbon-Freezing Chamber Box 2016

January 2016 is going to be a good month for Star Wars fans, as in the wake of “The Force Awakens”, a whopping twenty-four LEGO Star Wars sets are due for release! The set I expect to be most popular with older collectors isn’t from Episode VII (or any new media), however, and certainly isn’t the biggest set being released. It’s one of just two sets from the Original Trilogy, and it’s going to warm (or freeze) a lot hearts: the 2016 LEGO Star Wars Carbon-Freezing Chamber 75137!

LEGO Star Wars Battle on Takodana! Kylo Ren Unmasked!

LEGO Star Wars Battle on Takodana 75139 Box

Among the many compelling mysteries fans are dying to have answered in the Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie next month is the true identity and background of the mysterious, Sith-like Kylo Ren. Following the release of the full Episode VII trailer and its absence of a certain Jedi Master, crazy rumors started swirling about Kylo Ren potentially being Luke Skywalker. Photos from the set seemed to disprove those allegations, but now we can officially confirm it via the merch: the 2016 LEGO Star Wars Battle of Takodana 75139 set gives us the first-ever unmasked Kylo Ren figure–and he’s definitely not Luke Skywalker!

LEGO Architecture New York City 21028 Box

LEGO Architecture remains one of the most unique themes that TLG produces, with a limited number of retail chains carrying the line and only a handful of sets being released each year. But while Architecture has been restricted in the past to giving us some great builds of famous buildings, TLG is switching things up in 2016! Why settle for one building from the most recognizable cities in the world, when you can have a whole skyline?! Coming winter 2016: LEGO Architecture New York City, Berlin and Venice cityscape sets!
