This week and the next couple of weeks they are promoting the Lego Super Heroes sets, so I bought Lego Batman: The Bat vs T...

Due to my new interest in collecting certain Lego sets, I have significantly cut down on how many DVD's I buy a week. For this week it's WWE Royal Rumble 2013 and Skyfall Steel book edition. WWE Royal Rumble 2013 is a PPV I get every year regardless of overall match quality. Skyfall is the most rece...

When I bought the Star Wars Lego: The Empire Strikes Out, it came with a Darth Vader mini-fig with a medal pained on his chest, which makes sense if you watch the short movie. I also bought a Kratos statue that is based on the God Of War: Ascension video game. When I was trying to get the statue to ...

I downloaded the Omega DLC for Mass Effect 3, it's not bad, it does go for 4-5 hours and does give you a couple of new squad mates for the mission (Aria T'Loak and a new female Turian called Nyreen) . Since I haven't completed it yet I don't know if the new character actually joins you or not, I sus...

Dredd, Star Wars Lego Empire Strikes Out, Hellsing Ultimate 2 Dredd: A vastly superior movie to the one starring Sylvester Stallone, this starring Karl Urban, where he and Judge Anderson work together to remove Ma-Ma and her Slo-mo drug manufacturing.

I have gotten both Tomb Raider Collector's Edition and Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance Limited Edition, both on PS3. I am having difficulty trying to get the Lara Croft figure to stand up, but she does come with a few accessories: two pairs of hands, a couple of guns and a bow and arrow. With Metal G...

Argo, Mulan 1 & 2, Hunchback Of Notredame 1 & 2 and Lego The Adventures Of Clutch Powers. I hear Argo is very good and with the awards it won, it better be. Another great directorial effort by Ben Afflect. Don't remember much about either Mulan or Hunchback Of Notredame, but I did see the fi...

Not much to say, just a couple of minifigs: Chicken suit guy and a cyclops. The cyclops could work with my Lord Of The Rings stuff, I guess.

Bought FOC Ultra Magnus and Starscream a K-Mart on Tuesday. I think the FOC Prime mould fits Ultra Magnus a lot better than Prime if only because he looks bigger and has smokestacks. I'm also liking the Starscream he also comes with that twin Gatling gun I like so much from the game as well. I also ...

Is it me or does Lego.com not keep any Lego sets older than maybe six moths to a year, do they recycle the sets or are there other web sites that have older stock? All that I found was Brickset, which seems to be a database sort of thing, and JustBricks Australia.

I ordered off Ebay a Lego Lord Of The Rings: Battle Of Helm's Deep set that came in on Tuesday, the box is heavier than I remembered it being, it came posted in a Amazon.com post box which is strange.

My collectors edition of Aliens: Colonial Marines came in this week faster than expected, bad game though according to reviews, the graphics looked sub par as well, not a very good sign for a game that was in development for six years.

The exo-frame grappling an Alien was decent though.

Grabbed a Lego City Dirt Bike Transporter and a few of the 9th season of blind packed minifigs hoping to get the knight and the space marine, but instead got two of the the alien space marines.
