Hey boys and girls! It's time for another round of "Games that Tommy has never heard of!" Yes, I've never played, or actually even heard of Bayonetta. We'll just have to add it to the growing list of games that have eluded me but inspire insanely cool MOCs like this one from builder Umm, Who? I don't know what's going on or who's who (or what) but it's a feast for the eyes.

I will never tire of seeing a good micro build, especially one as good as this castle by builder soccerkid6. And it's not just my opinion, this happens to be the winner of the 48x48 Castle category of the Summer Joust. The color combination is my favorite thing about this, but I have to make mention of that stud-to-stud technique for adding windows to the round tower. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

The August 2018 LEGO Store Calendar has been out for a few days now and one of the main promotions for the month is the new is the LEGO Plants from Plants (40320). It has 29 pieces complete of various plant elements and you can get it for free from August 1-14 with purchases of $35 or more, while supplies last. If you haven’t heard about it, LEGO launched a new initiative to start producing LEGO plant elements using plant-based plastic created from sugarcane. This approach is part of The LEGO Group’s commitment to use more sustainable materials in a large portion of their products and packaging by 2030.

While everyone is drooling over the new LEGO Bugatti Chiron Technic set builder _Pixeljunkie_ has decided to go more retro, way more retro. This is a 1928 Bugatti Type 37A, and it's beautiful. There's a fair amount of custom chrome on her, and it really pops. And an old garage is the perfect setting. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I find it doubtful that GM-20, a.k.a. "MARVIN," is a fan of buttered scones or women's clothing, but around the construction site there's little doubt he's immensely useful. Builder César Soares once again delivers a mech that is both cute and charming and ever so slightly terrifing.   Original linkOriginal author: Will Nickelson

LEGO has revealed another teaser for the LEGO Creator Aston Martin DB5 (10262) has they have showed off another image for the set. This time, there is a silhouette of the box in front of the gun barrel. There’s also the 007 and Aston Martin symbols at the bottom but at the top we have the LEGO Creator Expert which is the first time they have acknowledged what theme the Aston Martin DB5 is from. If you saw my post this morning, the Budapest LEGO Certfied Store already started their own promotion for it by taking pre-orders. There’s still no word on when the set will be released but the July 18-31 VIP Early Access event seems like the best guess since there is also an event at the Leicester Square LEGO Brand Store happening on the same day.

Sure showering your enemy with hellfire from above is fun, but what makes it awesome is when that shock and awe destruction is delivered by turtle. Yes, I said turtle, namely Legoloverman's classic turtles. Here we see one equipped with missile launcher, and it's a wicked combination of cute and catastrophic. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I've never been about money. As an artist I always find it difficult to put a price on my time, and I've never had ambitions of wealth. I'm just happy making stuff, sharing stuff, and making enough money to keep my family fed and happy. But there are some in the world who see the buckazoids differently, for who the accumulation of wealth is all consuming and the yardstick by way they measure their self worth. Sort of like this guy from builder lummerlander, who may never learn money can't buy you happiness. Don't be like this guy. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

It looks like the cat is out of the bag for the “top secret” LEGO James Bond set that will be coming out soon. The Budapest LEGO Certified Store has posted a pre-order page for the LEGO Creator Aston Martin DB5 (10262) which confirms all of the teasers that LEGO and Aston Martin has been pushing out the past few weeks. It has a release date of August 8 but but I’m assuming that it’ll be the July 18 for the VIP Early Access set. Stay tuned as the official announcement will be coming soon.

If you’ve been holding off on getting the LEGO Star Wars UCS Snowspeeder (75144), Walmart, of all places, currently has it on sale for 20% off and it is going for $159.95. If you’ve been collecting the UCS set, you would know that UCS sets usually don’t go on sale on LEGO Shop@Home so getting any kind of discount on it is a good deal. Even with the Double VIP Points promotion going on Shop@Home right now, the 20% discount is still the better deal and an even greater one for a pretty awesome set. If you haven’t checked out my review of the set, you can read up on it here. The post LEGO Star Wars UCS Snowspeeder (75144) Sale on Walmart appeared first on The Brick Fan.
