EDIT:  I received an email this morning and a few comments on Facebook that this figure is most likely a reversed Lego Idea House Torso with the arms on backwards.  After looking at this page here on Bricklink, I tend to agree.  One of the figures yesterday had this text on it.  … So I bought it.  🙂  I will let you know.

LEGO Idea House Minifig 2016 version. New from Lego Idea house tour 2016, front “Lego Idea House”, back “Lego logo and text www.LEGO.com/Lego history”

I just saw this one posted over on Flickr by 3D-Foundry – From the original poster, this is an exclusive minifigure from the Lego Ideas House in Billund.  I did not even know that I needed this one until now.  🙁

I have posted a questions, but I do not currently know how to obtain one of these.  Let me know if you find out.  See the pic and comments here.

You can see it here.

Thanks for looking

One Quick way to get a large set of Monochrome Minifigures

EDIT: I am re-posting this because I have had a few people ask me about these monochrome figures again.  I find something special about collecting these monochrome minifigures.

These are just really cool and calming to look at.  I am still only missing about 6 of these, so this would be overkill for me, but I thought I would share in case one of you wanted to take the easy way out.   More and more people are listing full set of these.  See it here.  This seller usually has sets of 21 available.  Just message him if they are all sold out.  Look at the auctions because the specific colors change once in a while!

Lego Star Wars Rogue One minifigures are coming

It looks like a few sites are posting images from the upcoming Lego Star Wars Rogue One sets that will be out later this summer or this fall.  Here are the details.  One of the minifigures, one of 5 sets and one of one set.  Someone else said that they saw 5 different sets.

 

here are some of the image links

Flickr user Galaad has all three of them here.  His Flickr account appears to have the largest copy of these.

Reddit has them here.

Eurobricks talks about them here.  It looks like the found the on the Brick Show here.

In the Eurobricks thread, one of the users summarized the sets as follows.

Lego Star Wars Rogue One minifigures are coming - Copy

“75152 Tank: 2 tank troopers, Chirrut (blind guy)

75153 AT-ST: AT-ST Driver, Baze (heavy-weapons guy with red backpack), Rebel Trooper with a new hat

75154 TIE Striker: TIE pilot, Rebel Trooper (new Endor hat), Shoretrooper, and a black-clad guy with a walkie-talkie with a printed tile on it, and landing baton things in the box art… i.e. most definitely not a “Death Star Trooper”. His helmet looks like a Death Star Gunner’s, sorta, with the ‘dimples’ in the forehead part like Kallus’ helmet or a Death Star Trooper’s.

75155 U-wing: Rebel pilot (not Porkins; this guy’s clean-shaven, and I doubt Porkins would wear a different helmet-deco a day or three before ANH), Bestan (furry alien), Jyn Erso (with a hat/hair combo & goggles), Cassian Andor (in his “blue Hoth Han” coat), Rebel Trooper (helmet kinda like Commander Sato’s troops in Star Wars Rebels)

75156 Imperial Cargo Shuttle (or whatever): K-250, Bodhi (guy wearing a faded Imperial jumpsuit & goggles), Pad (gray alien with brown hat), Death Trooper (I expect two), Director Krennic”

I believe I posted the prices if these a while ago in Euros, but here they are in US$ from NEOGAF here.

75152 Imperial Tank (385pcs; $29.99)
75153 AT-ST (449pcs; $39.99)
75154 TIE Striker (543pcs; $69.99)
75155 U-Wing Starfighter (659pcs; $69.99)

I am not familiar with this auction site, http://www.2ememain.be/ but a reader sent me this link this morning and I thought some of you might want to browse the auction.    It is hard to tell all of sets that are included, but obviously a hard core collector that has decided to quit.

80000 EURO Lego Collection

You can see the fill auction and more pictures here.  You will need google translate.

Per the auction.

“I’m selling my collection of LEGO covering the period 1978-2014, with more than 2,000 models and weighs nearly a ton. I took full advantage, but the time and the interest now fail me. So it’sa proper collection consists mainly of complete models and to a lesser extent, parts and sorted. The brand has always been maintained with care and precision by an adult. When a model has been used, it is in a clean condition (cleaned by hand if necessary), complete with all labels and in superb condition. The last picture shows the typical packaging for such a set. In addition, all models are documented, thanks to more than 12,000 pictures (16GB). The asking price is honest, well below the price of walking if you buy models individually. I am often willing to sell the collection from the specified starting price. I insist on the total sale, I do not sell models individually or by batch. I do not hurry, the collection will not be sold off. The buyer is responsible for transport. I moved last year and I have therefore a good idea of the magnitude of the task. It takes a good week to pack everything, 120 large moving boxes and a truck to the lot in one go. I still have the packing material that I provide to the buyer. The collection will of course be checked thoroughly in advance by the purchaser. Bonus: The buyer may also include the shelves. It’sa 60aine a shelf Ikea Laxvik (aluminum / glass) for a purchase price of € 744. A list (Excel) detailed and many additional photos can be sent to potential buyers.

Sharks Alligators Tigers and Scorpions – Four figures to add to your collection that you may not know about

This post and site contains Affiliate links. I may earn a small commission if you click on them. Click here for more details.

I recently saw these four figures in a photo on flickr and I did some research to figure out where they came from!  What is special about these is the fact that all four torsos kind of go together and are animal themed!  It is too bad we did not have a lion and a bear, but these are still pretty nice.  Additionally, these are currently really cheap and easy to get a hold of on ebay and bricklink.

Here are the backs and the sets that they come in.  They also come in other sets as well, but this should get you started.

Lego Whales Crocs Tigers and Scorpions Minifigures Back

I did find one seller on eBay selling three of these.  He is just missing the alligator.

BTW, here is the pic that JeRoMe made.  Of course it is better than mine!  If you get a chance, take a look at his photostream, you cannot go wrong looking at his!  He has one of the best on Flickr.
