31034 LEGO Creator Future Flyer 2015 Set Box

“Look… in the sky! It’s a plane…! No… it’s a car! No… it’s… a robot?!” Continuing along with our discussions of the 2015 LEGO Creator sets that should be hitting stores this winter, today we’ve got a bit of an oddity for the theme: a sci-fi themed set!

We’re all accustomed to the LEGO Creator 3-in-1 sets by now, but this winter 2015 set contains three different builds that are a little bit more varied than what we usually get: it’s the LEGO Creator Future Flyer 31034!

2015 LEGO Creator Toy & Grocery Shop 31036 Set Revealed!

31036 LEGO Creator Toy & Grocery Shop Winter 2015 Set Box

Earlier this year, LEGO released the delightful LEGO Bike Shop & Cafe set as part of the LEGO Creator 2014 sets wave. I really liked that set, as it give consumers a chance to buy modular buildings that are trimmed down and about half the cost of the super-expensive Modular Buildings such as the LEGO Parisian Restaurant. And in winter 2015, LEGO is expanding the block with another LEGO Creator Modular building: the LEGO Toy & Grocery Shop 31036 is joining the neighborhood!

31032 LEGO Creator Red Creatures Set Box

Earlier today I discussed one of the cutest LEGO sets of 2015–the LEGO Creator Rainforest Animals 31031 set. While that set is hands-down one of the most heartwarming LEGO sets coming out this winter, perhaps you’re not into cuddly creatures, and like your animals a little bit more… ferocious? If so, get psyched up, because LEGO has something in mind for you, too! If you can’t afford the set with LEGO Smaug, you’ll have a chance for another red, fire-breathing LEGO Dragon this winter in the LEGO Red Creatures 31032 set!

LEGO 31031 Rainforest Animals 2015 Set

Despite the fact that there have been about a million (okay, two million) leaks of the upcoming LEGO 2015 sets and their images, there are still some surprises to be had! Such is the case this week, as several of the up-until-now unrevealed LEGO Creator sets made a grand debut, arriving at retail stores before images of the sets even had a chance to turn up online! First up, we’ll take a look at my favorite LEGO Creator 2015 set: LEGO Rainforest Animals 31031!

LEGO MINI Cooper 10242 Set Up for Order & Photos!

LEGO Creator MINI Cooper 10242 Box Set Summer 2014

Occasionally, LEGO is really good at keeping a secret (as was the case with the LEGO Star Wars MTT that turned up shockingly last week). But most of the time–most of the time–LEGO just can’t keep a secret. Rumors have been swirling about through winter and into spring regarding a new 2014 LEGO MINI Cooper set, so when yet another mysterious VIP Early Access set was announced via the LEGO Store July 2014 calendar, it didn’t take a precognitive to foretell what that set might be. But as it turns out, we didn’t have to guess for long anyway–the LEGO MINI Cooper 10242 set has now been fully revealed!

UPDATE: The LEGO Mini Cooper 10242 set is now available for order online! And yes, you get the free LEGO Mini Mini Cooper polybag with it!

LEGO Mini Cooper 40109 Polybag Promo Mini Mini Cooper Set

As soon as word leaked out regarding the release of this year’s LEGO Creator Expert Mini Cooper 10242, LEGO fans began speculating about the possibility that LEGO would release a LEGO Mini Mini Cooper (Mini Cooper Mini?) as a promotional item alongside the LEGO Mini Cooper 10242. I was doubtful of whether or not we’d get a LEGO Mini Cooper Mk. II polybag right away, but I can’t be skeptical anymore: the Mini LEGO Mini Cooper 40109 polybag promo set is arriving this summer!

LEGO Fairground Mixer 10244 Set Photos & Order Info

LEGO Creator Fairground Mixer Set Box 10244 June 2014 LEGO Stores Exclusive

ORIGINAL 4/26/2014: Confession time: I hate roller coasters with a fiery passion. My stomach can’t handle rides with drops, and I hate rides that get me soaked almost as much. At most amusement parks, there’s a grand total of one ride that I really and truly love–and it’s coming in LEGO form this summer! Sometimes it’s called the Scrambler, sometimes it’s called the Twist, and my wife calls it “the spin and barf”, but in June 2014, it’ll be coming as the “Mixer” in the spectacular LEGO Fairground Mixer 10244 set that has just been unveiled!

UPDATE: 5/15/2014: The LEGO Fairground Mixer is now available for order online! Make sure to log into your LEGO VIP account to order!

31026 LEGO Creator Bike Shop and Cafe Box

I don’t usually talk a whole lot about the LEGO Creator theme here, as the mass-release LEGO Creator sets tend to not be very hyped or popular (in general). But every once in a while a LEGO Creator set comes along that you can instantly tell from the preview photos is going to make a huge splash and be super-popular with LEGO collectors. And as luck would have it, such a set is due out in stores in just a few months! The Summer 2014 LEGO Bike Shop and Cafe 31026 is on the way!

The new year has arrived, and while some of the winter LEGO 2014 sets are still missing in action (most notably LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Legends of Chima), LEGO Stores have fully restocked and have plenty of other goodness to be had! The biggest and most exciting new additions today were of course the long-awaited LEGO Parisian Restaurant 10243 Modular Building set and the LEGO Maersk Line Triple-E 10241!

2014 LEGO Creator Forest Animals 31019 Set Box

I just got done last night saying how I don’t particularly care for LEGO sets that aren’t action-based, and then LEGO has to go and make a liar out of me by hitting me with something like these! See, I’ve got an embarrassing weakness for ridiculously cute animals, and LEGO has decided to capitalize on this character flaw of mine next year. Coming in Winter 2014–LEGO Creator Forest Animals 31019 and Furry Creatures 31021!
