UFO LEGO Store April 2015 Mini Model Build Photos!

While I was at one of my nearest LEGO Stores this week, not only did I pick up the new April 2015 LEGO Store Calendar and pick up the new exclusive LEGO Pirates Chess Set and Easter Set, but I also got to scope out next month’s Free Mini Monthly Model Build in person! LEGO has been knocking these free builds out of the park so far in 2015, and that trend will be continuing with the LEGO UFO Mini Monthly Model Build next month!

LEGO UFO Mini Monthly Model Build April 2015

It used to be the case that most of the monthly free model builds at the LEGO Store weren’t all that great, so I rarely felt bad about not being allowed to participate in them (age discrimination–Ha!).

But over the course of the past year, I the LEGO Stores have done a spectacular job of designing fun and unique builds for this beloved monthly event, and I’m feeling more and more jealous of the kiddos. After this month’s terrific Retro-Style Robot Mini Model Build, I figured next month’s build would be a step down. But in actuality, I like it just as much–if not more!

LEGO March 2015 Mini Monthly Model Build And April 2015 BuildThe April 2015 LEGO Mini Model Build is a classic sci-fi UFO build that is downright adorable! I love the bright blue and translucent green details on the UFO–it looks like the kind of thing you’d see on the decorations at Pizza Planet in Toy Story!

April 2015 LEGO Free Monthly Mini Model Build UFO SetThe LEGO UFO Mini Monthly Model Build will take place on Tuesday, April 7th 2015. The event begins at 5PM, but each store will be limited to 250 kits to build, so make sure to get to your store early if you’ve got your heart set on building this spiffy UFO.

LEGO Mini Monthly Model Build Ages 6-14As usual, we adults will have to admire this build from afar (or buy it on the aftermarket after the event), though–the Mini Monthly Model Build is (as always) only for kids ages 6-14. And while I turned 29 for the umpteenth time again last year, I just can’t pass for 14 anymore.

Who’s lucky enough to be attending next month’s Monthly Mini Model Build event, either for themselves or a younger loved one? Are you impressed with the UFO LEGO Mini Model that will be given away at the event?

  1. Sorry to say I am not too impressed with the UFO. I loved the robot indeed, but the April UFO and the May animal (not sure exactly what it is) are not so impressive.
