2.43 Lego Vikings!!

Greetings ninjas! As many of you know, I'm a huge fan of Brick Warriors.  This is a great site that lets you buy premium minifigure accessories.  These extra parts are truly awesome. I've built Roman Legions, space marines, and Viking warriors. And now they have Viking accessories for sale!! Buying a helmet, deer antlers, armor, and axe costs only 2.43!! (The shield is not on sale but is only another 1.33) This is a great deal. The magic price is about 3 dollars per minifigure, and depending on what you want most of the specialty figures cost between 7 and 9 dollars with many more costing 20 or more.  (I've got my eye on Ash from Evil Dead that will cost 22 dollars!!) For a few dollars, and less than the price of a Happy Meal, you can turn this guy:




Into one of these guys:

Now of course there are some caveats. These are accessories for minifigures that you already own.  And you also have to pay shipping. Its usually right around 4 dollars and shipped the same day.  This price is the same no matter how much you order and waived if you order 25. I usually order about 10 dollars of material to make the shipping worth it. In this case that would be enough to outfit three or four Viking warriors. That can be one for each child or enough to make your own mini army and plunder your normal Legos!!

We learned from Emmett that anybody can be the special, but he never heard of Brick Warrior accessories!! Make sure to follow me on Facebook to receive future updates. Good luck Ninjas!

Free Jurassic World!

Greetings ninjas! This Saturday, June 20th, Toys R Us is having a free Lego giveaway! As you can see below, you can make your own Jurassic World gate.  This looks pretty cool! I know our Toys R Us often runs out, so I would get there about 15 or 30 minutes early.  Good luck ninjas!

One dollar Marvel!!

Greetings Ninjas. I highlighted the Minifigure Outlet store when they had a sale on Clone Troopers. Now they have a similar sale on two Marvel villains, Crossbones and Whiplash. Both are on sale for 99 cents!! With the minimum of 2.30 for shipping (though it may vary by location) you are getting a nice Lego for less than the cost of a specialized mini figure with Lego store blind bags, and far less than what you'll pay on Amazon or Ebay for hard to find figures.



For those of you that don't remember these villains, Crossbones is the SHIELD agent that tried to arrest Captain America in the elevator scene. He fought with the Falcon and survived the destruction of the building. He has a small but pivotal role in the next Captain America movie (wearing his new wicked cool armor of course):




Whiplash is a little bit easier to remember as the bad guy from Iron Man 2: 

The usual caveats apply. These are not official Lego products. As such they vary in quality and may offend some purists. My daughter and her friends play with these off brand Legos all the time and they haven't noticed. And the price point is far better than what you get elsewhere. I feel fine paying 3 dollars and change for some wicked cool mini figures I can add to my collection. 

Good luck Ninjas! As usual, please like me on facebook for further updates.
