On the Facebook page for LEGO Ninjago, a new poster was uploaded giving us a preview on what to expect in the upcoming animated television series and sets. The hint of our ninja going against pirates was given prior at the last San Diego Comic-Con but this marks the first official image of our team’s next ordeal of villains to tend with in the ongoing battle to restore peace across the realm of Ninjago. From what can be seen, these airborne bri

Last week, we reported on the first LEGO Nexo Knights polybag to be revealed, 30371 Knight's Cycle. A image of a second polybag has appeared, 30372 Robin's Mini Fortrex. No details have been released on the availability of this polybag either. As mentioned last week, Nexo Knights has not received the warmest of receptions, so it remains to be seen whether these two polybags will be a hit or a miss.

Yesterday I was contacted by the website Tech Insider to help them list the Top 25 most valuable sets of All Time. It was good timing too since I did run the price guide numbers recently. With no real big surprise, Star Wars led the pack with getting 10 sets into the list. I think the one surprise is getting a set from 2015 in there with the Bat-Pod. No one is really sure how long that will remain in the list and if aftermarket builders will do a good enough job on the "fakes" to kill t
