LEGO Lone Ranger Sets are here!

The much anticipated LEGO Lone Ranger Sets have arrived!  I wont chit chat about them a whole lot, I'll just give you some basic info and pics for all six sets.  All of these sets are available on Amazon.com with free shipping.

79106 - Calvary Builder Set - 69 Pieces - 4 Minifigures - $12.99 USD

79107 - Comanche Camp - 161 Pieces - 3 Minifigures - $19.99 USD

79108 - Stagecoach Escape - 279 Pieces - 5 Minifigures - $29.99 USD

 79109 - Colby City Showdown - 587 Pieces - 5 Minifigures - $49.99 USD

79110 - Silver Mine Shootout - 644 Pieces - 5 Minifigures - $69.99 USD

79111 - Constitution Train Chase - 699 Pieces - 7 Minifigures - $99.99 USD

I'm going to be the proud owner of the Calvary Builders Set and the Stagecoach Escape.  That will give me a good mix of minifigs without going overboard on price.  If I decide to go overboard (which I usually do) I'll get the Colby City Showdown, I really like the look of those buildings.

I love reading comments from other LEGO fans.  Please leave a comment letting know which set you like the most and why.

Cool Minifigure of the Week - Bane

This modern era Bane Minifigure is from LEGO Set 76001 - The Bat vs. Bane: Tumbler Chase.  He is fashioned after the Bane from The Dark Knight Rises.  So cool...

The set is available on Amazon for $39.97 with Free Shipping. 76001 also includes a Batman minifig as well as Commissioner Gordon in SWAT gear.  Click here if you want to pick up this great set.

How To Build Iron Man Mark I

Flickr user chiukeung created this Iron Man Mark I from the first Iron Man movie.  Not only is it a great model but he was nice enough to make this cool instruction sheet so everyone can make their own!  You can check out some of his other MOCs here.

Here are a couple more of his designs

The Big Mak. Should We Be Scared or Hungry?

 We love mechs. This fast food themed Battlemech aptly named The Big Mak is one of the all-time favorites at miniBIGS.  It was created by Sean and Steph Mayo and donated to Creations for Charity, a fundraiser where LEGO builders donate their creations to raise money to purchase LEGO sets for underprivileged children.  Unfortunately we did not discover this deliciously awesome mech until after the auction was closed.  Now we will just have to jealously gawk at the pic. Oh and just in case the pic isn't enough they also made a video commercial, check it out here The Big Mak commercial.

Iron Man Helmet Sculptures

I saw these amazing Iron Man 3 Helmets on Flickr.  He made great use of those metallic gold pieces, and they even open up.  They were created by Mr. Attacki and you can check out his other creations here. I wish I could get my hands on one.

STOCK UPDATE: German Soldier (WWII)

Our very popular German Soldier from World War II is back in stock tonight.  Not only that, but we decided to drop his price down to $17 USD.  He includes some very cool World War II era weapons by Brickarms, a Luger Pistol, a MP40 Sub-machine Gun, and a Panzerfaust Rocket Launcher.  And don't forget, he has custom printing on the front and the back, not a decal, actual pad printing just like LEGO Brand.

 Printed and assembled in the great US of A!
