Minifigure Spotlight - Series 12 - The Jester

I finally found a couple Series 12 packs that weren't torn open.  I wasn't sure if Lego was going to count the Movie and Simpson series' in the numbered and now we know they didn't.  My first Series 12 - The Jester or Joker, I'm not quite sure. Nice to get one of the rarer figures right out of the gate. 

He's got cool jester's hat and two playing cards.  Not sure why.

Minifigure Spotlight - Series 5 Primatologist

With Series 12 out, but no where to be found around me yet lets looks back a ways to Series 5 and the Primatologist or monkey girl.

She comes with a great little monkey and a banana.  Gotta love the zoo theme.

Brick Loot

It all started with Loot Crate, which featured a monthly shipment of pop culture, then came Collector Crate for sports card collectors, well now a new enterprise, not associated with the other two is bring a monthly box of goodies for brick lovers...Brick Loot.



Featuring the same kind of subscription set up as the Crates, Brick Loot will send you a box of Lego and Lego compatible building blocks and other cool building accessories monthly.

The first box goes out in December and you have the option of various lengths of subscriptions. Longer subscriptions means discounts.  Looks like these guys have been making the rounds at toy fairs and brick conventions.  I'm tempted to try one of these out.

Check them out.

You can get 10% off your order by entering the promotion code Build10.
