In addition to the deals LEGO is running this weekend online, they’re also teaming up with Toys R Us for a special in-store promotion. On Sunday, May 3, stop by your local Toys R Us between noon and 2PM – you’ll be able to make and take home an exclusive LEGO Star Wars mini Wookiee Gunship.
Don’t forget, they are also hosting a LEGO Star Wars Midnight Madness Shopping Spree giveaway online. May the 4th be with you!
I’ve still got Avengers on my mind, but LEGO was kind enough to remind me that it’s Star Wars Day on Monday. This weekend, they’ve got special deals for on shop.lego.com, including something extra for LEGO VIP members. With any LEGO Star Wars purchase, you’ll get a free mini-figure of Admiral Yularen, who appeared in Episode IV: A New Hope and the Clone Wars animated show. LEGO will also throw in the Episode IV poster from their collection of Star Wars posters recreated with LEGO.
You’ll also get free shipping on orders over $75, which you’d get if you pick up the new Collector Series TIE Fighter set, which just went up for sale. VIP members will also get a shot at one of ten TIE Fighters that have been signed by Kjeld Kristiansen, the owner of the LEGO Group. May the 4th be with you!

I’d love to take a tour of Sideshow Collectibles giveaway storage room – they’ve always got great contests and giveaways underway! This week has been no exception. Leading up to the Avengers: Age of Ultron opening today, they’ve been running Avengers-related giveaways for most of the week. In case you’ve missed any of them, I’ve collected them here:
These contests require that you follow Sideshow’s social media accounts, so be sure to like and follow them on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
They’ve also got a Captain America Premium Format Figure going up later this morning on Facebook. I’ll send an update out later today (probably in the afternoon after seeing the movie), but if you can’t wait, just keep an eye on the Sideshow Contest and Giveaway page.
Good luck, and happy assembling!
With the Avengers: Age of Ultron movie opening today (woo woo!) I felt a tidal wave of megalomania coming over me. So what did I do? Naturally, I designed a t-shirt to soothe my overloaded positronic synapses. The “Obey” t-shirt is available on the until-now unknown Fan Tribute T-shirts page on AFP.
You see, I’ve had these feelings before, and designing t-shirts has been the only cure. Until now, I’ve never had any desire to make my t-shirts public – but I figure if I sell enough of them now (it would require enslaving the whole planet to enforce my robotic will) I’d be able to pay for our movie tickets to Avengers: Age of Ultron. After all, I’m taking my wife and my mother-in-law, and we’re seeing it in 3D. I might even be able to spring for some popcorn, too! 😉
If this is not motivation enough for you, our T-shirt partner has a free shipping code (FREE2LOVE) if you buy two items. This applies across the entire Spreadshirt site, so feel free to head over there… after you Obey, of course. Happy shopping, and happy assembling!
It must be #ThrowbackThursday. Funko has gone back 30 years to bring us back some Garbage Pail Kids. They’ve got 3.75-inch figures in a blind boxed format – which is the closest thing you can get to the trading card experience (except for trading cards, of course). But here, you’re getting your favorite GPKs in three dimensions, in vinyl.
And for one of the most rare and valuable Garbage Pail Kids, Funko has made Adam Bomb in 10-inch vinyl. And for a far cry cheaper than what he’s gone for in card format. Nasty!
