  • Black Friday LEGO Deals 2011

    Update 11/21: Fred Meyer and Walgreens have been added.

    Here’s our annual report on Black Friday ads mentioning LEGO. The deals are pretty lackluster compared to previous years no doubt due to LEGO’s rising popularity. Still, if you’re out and about and manage to find yourself at any of the retailers below, you might be able to score something. Some deals are good only for a few hours, some all day or all weekend. I’ve made a note of wh I’ve also listed the store hours where available. Most of the deals are for in store only. Cyber Monday should bring a few more deals around. We’ll be updating this post as more info trickles in. All information should be solidifed by Wednesday night so check back often. If you have sales news to share, hit us up through our contact page.

    Barnes & Noble

    Store hours vary by location depending lease agreements. Deal is good all day and in-store only.

    Toys’R’Us

    Also, they are advertising that their Black Friday deals has already started. You might be able to score some deals online.

  • LEGO Target Giftcard Now Available Online

    Update: I may have spoken too soon about the minimum amount required. It seems that you still need to put $25 dollars down on the gift card to trigger the MAIL delivery option. Any smaller amount and your only options are e-mail or mobile delivery. At least one person was able to get the smaller amount and mail delivery, so YMMV. Good luck!

    Did you miss out on buying the 2011 LEGO Target Giftcard set in store? Well they are now available online and unlike last year where you had to put a minimum of $25 on the card, you can put down as low as $5. Buy a bunch, and save them for the holiday clearances. The giftcard set will let you build either Bullseye the Target mascot, a snowman, or a polar bear.

    And in case you’re wondering, the actual gift card part of the product is on the plastic case itself. There’s no separate card physical card.

  • New LEGO Target Gift Card

    Remember this Target gift card from last year?

    There are reports coming in that there is a new set for this year. It has 49 pieces and can be built into either Bullseye the Target dog, a polar bear, or a snowman. Minimum money to put down for the gift card is $5.00 but you can cycle that to purchase additional cards. I’m on my way out right now to try and find one. If you have a picture, share it with us in the thread or use the contact us form.

    Update: SH1 from the forums pointed out that the weekly ad has an image:

    Very nice. Of course, now everyone’s going to HAVE to get two, three if they didn’t get last year’s.

  • Cars 2 on Blu-ray/DVD Release Details

    Cars 2 Five-disc Combo

    Update: I added the Toys’R’Us retailer exclusive below.

    Cars 2 will be released in less than a week on Tuesday November 1. And since its the norm lately to offer highly anticipated releases in multiple formats, I thought I’d make a post on the different options available to you.

  • Review: 30130 MINI Black Pearl

    30130 MINI The Black Pearl

    There isn’t much to this review so I won’t bother with the more link.

    30130 MINI Black Pearl is a Target-exclusive in the US and is only available pre-packaged with Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides 3D Blu-ray Limited Edition 5-disc set. In the UK, they were given away earlier this year as a Sun newspaper promotion. Free is about the right price for this set. By itself, it’s a terrible representation of the iconic pirate ship. Since I am not a big Pirates fan nor do I have a 3D television, the only reason I bought it was to do this review and hopefully save a few of you readers out there from making a terrible purchase.

    Target-exclusive Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides 3D Blu-ray Limited Edition 5-disc set

    What I liked: Nothing. Since technically it’s ‘free’, it’s a neat little bonus to get some extra LEGO bits

    What I didn’t: It’s a terrible model. It’s obvious just by looking at the sails how inaccurate the model is. Adding a few more plates and clips and a longer bar for the center could have easily remedied the inadequate number of sails. The MINI model also has an inverted brown cone which I believe is supposed to represent a Crow’s Nest which the Black Pearl doesn’t even have. A 1×1 clip plate could have replaced it and represent the flag. And the bow of the ship? Hideous. I mean, who the heck is designing this thing and what are they basing it off of?

    Verdict: Save your $30 bucks and put it towards the System scale 4184 The Black Pearl. Unless you’re a hardcore Pirates fan that has a 3D home theater system and doesn’t mind ugly LEGO sets, you’re better off spending your money on something else.

  • Target Sells 7877 Naboo Starfighter Exclusive at 20% off

    Target.com is offering the exclusive LEGO Star Wars set 7877 Naboo Starfighter at a discounted price of $39.99, down from $49.99 netting you a savings of 20% off MSRP. Target will charge tax where applicable, but they are offering free shipping on this item with no minimum order. The offer is also good in-store if you’re out and about. The weekly ad also shows 7958 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar for MSRP: $39.99.

  • 4184 Black Pearl More Widely Available

    In all the excitement of the 2012 pictures, this one pretty much flew under the radar. But in addition to 4184 Black Pearl being available at Target stores, Amazon.com (linked above) also has this set for sale. Priced at $99.97, you get free shipping and no tax to most states. LEGO Shop@Home also has this in their inventory for $99.99. You pay for shipping, but since October is double VIP points, you’ll get 199 points credited to your account. There is also a report of this set showing up at Costco at a discounted price of $79.99. Lots of buying options if you’re hankering for the ship from the first movie which also happens to be the best Pirates movie.

  • 30052 MINI AAT Available at Target
