LEGO Star Wars TIE Fighter 7146 reviewed!

How surprising, it is, that it took LEGO two years to release a plain TIE Fighter after they dove into the Star Wars franchise.  They made Vader's TIE Advanced out of the gate, and followed up with the UCS TIE Interceptor the following year, but it wasn't until 2001 that the most commonly-seen craft in Star Wars media had its big moment.

LEGO Architecture Venice skyline review

I have no right to call this one a "bad" set by any means, as I doubt I could have done any better at this scale, but this is certainly my least favorite Architecture set so far.  The two biggest things are cool, but bridges on the sides strike me as pretty "meh."

From what I've seen in the community, reception of this year's TRU Bricktober figure packs has been between low-lukewarm and chilly.  The parts are all reused and some of the figures look like mis-matched kitbashes.  They're free, though, so do we really have any right to complain?

Mega Bloks Collector Series is now "Mega Construx"

In the coming season this (sort of) new Mega Construx brand is going to appear all over store shelves and my videos, so I've made a standalone video to provide a little bit of context & explanation, such as I understand things so far.
Update:  It looks like the Mega Construx name is covering the overwhelming majority of the line, down to the sets with 2x-sized pieces.  I do still think they're going to leave the old name on the really big, 4x-sized parts mentioned in this video, but nothing has been confirmed or even mentioned officially as of yet.

Major, major milestone here!  I started on my first LEGO Minecraft display back in early summer 2014 and most of the subsequent effort was shifted to New JANG City after I moved in 2015.  This entire time, though, it's been easier for me to talk about what was upcoming than what was complete.  Now, finally, the entire overworld layout has terrain built upon it and the whole place has come to life!

Yes!  I wanted it, I got it, and now I've reviewed it.  It's the only minifig-scaled TIE Bomber LEGO has made to date, giving it a special place in my heart after my countless encounters with this craft in old Star Wars video games in the 1990s.

Custom LEGO Octan Factory MOC begins

The title pretty much says it all.  There's very little to see here so far and until it's "complete," every single brick will be subject to being moved and every feature will be subject to total redesign.  A start is a start, though.

Know what?  I'm not sure why it took me so long to get this set & review it.  I think part of me worried that it would be rather expensive due to its age & size (it's not), and another part worried that it'd be as ugly and/or poorly produced (fitment & part quality) as the smaller 'hogs of the earlier days (it's neither of those either).

I've previously reviewed the first LEGO B-Wing as well as the most recent, so here's something that came out right between the two extremes.  It's easy & natural to expect to see a little bit of classic influence and some evidence of future direction, but I found it surprising just how much of each this middle model had in store, all the way down to the classic generic smiley face on one of the figures, on a light flesh tone head!

Mega Bloks Halo Promethean Strike review

The first "Fall 2016" Halo sets from Mega were first released surprisingly early in the Summer, but this one here languished until we were well on our way towards Winter.  Any bets on when the first "Spring 2017" sets will be publicly stocked by some retailers?  I'm going to guess just after Thanksgiving.  It's madness!
