Later this summer, LEGO releases a new wave of Batman sets and the first one I want to check out is my most anticipated set which is Batman with the Batmobile vs. Harley Quinn and Mr. Freeze (76274). It is the second set based on Batman: The Animated Series and it has 425 pieces while retailing for $59.99. Minifigures There are three minifigures in the set, Batman, Mr. Freeze, and Harley Quinn. Batman is mostly the same one as in the LEGO Art Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City (76271) but with one difference. The cape used is the black rubber one rather than the cloth one from the other set. Mr. Freeze has his gray armored suit with some blue rings around the neck and shoulders although he does not have any on the arms. His head is plain white and has his red goggles going around. His weapon is...

Amazon has discounted the LEGO Creator 3-in-1 Main Street (31141) by 29% which save you a little over $40 on the set. The 1,459 piece set features a street with four buildings but can also be redesigned into a 4-floor art deco apartment building or an archway market street with a photo studio and flower shop.

Today’s article comes from Katie Walker, who has contributed to BrickNerd before with articles about her cheese slope mosaics. Today, she shares a very personal story about sorting LEGO… and cats. LEGO Sorting and Cats Hello! My name is Katie, and I have a LEGO sorting problem. Or perhaps it’s more like a hobby? Either way, my method may not be to everyone’s taste, but it works for me. I had an active building streak when my oldest kids were little (lots of cheese slope mosaics, etc.), but then I went back to work and entered a gray age—a time when an AFOL stops building because of time, interest, or just life getting in the way. I kept buying sets and building them, then dismantling and sorting them. Then I had another baby and moved to a bigger house. Somehow, I now have less space for building. I have a desk...

After our review of the set went out yesterday, the LEGO Alien Space Diner (40687) is now sold out on the LEGO Shop here in the US. The set was decently good with the minifigures and the price point to get it wasn’t extremely high so it was fairly easy to get. You can probably still find them at LEGO Stores but call to double check that they still have the promotion going. The easiest place to find one now is the secondary market and it’s going for between $20-$30, depending on who you’re buying from.

There’s only a few days left for the LEGO Alien Space Diner (40687) promotion and here’s a quick review of the set. It is available until May 26 with purchases of $100 on the LEGO Shop. Minifigures There are two astronaut minifigures, a white one and an orange one. The white torso with the Classic Space logo has been used in other sets but it is still rather new, however, the orange torso looks to be a new one. They do not have any air tanks which was one of the complaints I’ve seen about the minifigures. Build A majority of the build is the diner itself. It has a retro feel to it with the tile floors and the jukebox in the back. To the left of the jukebox is the red booth with a portion of the “wall”. At the top, there’s a small rocket flying above some stars....

It’s that time of year, BrickNerd fans! Time to ditch the scarves and mittens and dig out the flip-flops and Panama hats! It’s also a great time to review some summertime-themed MOCs because the temperatures outside are going up, up, up and the kids are heading out on summer break! Yes, we are going back in time to look at some of the hottest MOCs of the season. To set the mood, enjoy a DJ Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince classic while you peruse this article. And if you look really close in the video, you might even be able to see yours truly in the background. No joke! Beach House 2 We start with Beach House 2… (I must have missed the first movie). One option for summer fun is to rent a house by the ocean, especially if you’ve got a big crew: family, friends, or all of the...
