Hi guys! Firstly, I’d like to apologize for my sudden absence and lack of updates. It’s really uncharacteristic of me to completely fall off the face of the Earth and seemingly abandon the blog.
For those of you who have emailed, commented and checked in on me in any form, I really appreciate it. I have an absolute mountain of comments, emails and Facebook messages to get back to, which I will do so as soon as time permits.
So where have I been? Incredibly busy with work. The last 3 weeks have been absolutely crazy and I’ve been doing some really insane hours, which as you may have imagined doesn’t leave me much time for much else apart from family time, which has also been a challenge.
I’ve also been travelling for work which hasn’t been pleasant as it hasn’t allowed me much time at home.
I usually log in a couple of times a day to check my stats and check on comments, and yesterday was the first time I logged into my blog in like 2 weeks. I didn’t realise it was that long, but yeah, 2 weeks being out of it!
Anyway, so yeah, that’s a bit about my whereabouts. Kinda thankful that nothing MAJOR has happened in the time I was away except for LEGO teasing the UCS Millennium Falcon.
There’s good news. Things have started to settle down slightly (still busy, but not soul-crushingly busy) which means I have a bit more time for my hand for LEGO and the blog. I’m currently writing my review of the LEGO Ninjago Movie minifigures which will hopefully be completed tomorrow, so look out for some fresh content too!
I’m also keen on getting into some of the new LEGO Ninjago Movie sets which have been sitting in my room unopened since the start of the month.
That’s an update for now! I’ll delete this post in about 24 hours – I just felt like I had to say something about my whereabouts!
Again, apologies for the lack of content!

Jay says
Sorry for the late reply! Yes, will be blogging the Star Wars Advent Calendar as usual!
YYE says
Hi i am new here, I appreciate your reviews and your thoughts. You made me think twice, to not overspend on lego but to really know the history of sets, minifigures and etc. Looking forward to read more from your blog xx

Seriously, I haven’t seen a thing of you recently.

Glad you’re alright. Know that busy feeling when work becomes all consuming. Peaks and troughs.

Spider fan says
Hi I have been reading your blog for a while now though this is my first time leaving a comment. Cannot wait for review on Lego Ninjago movie minifigures
Jay says
Thanks for dropping by to comment!
SpideyFTW says
Hey Jay, don’t worry about it – it happens, and we understand you’re a dad as well, so don’t feel like you have to stress about it. I can’t wait to see your Ninjago Movie reviews! I’m hunting for the Ninja Lloyd (from the collectable series) and hoodie Lloyd!
Jeb says
Hey, just thought I’d help here! If you’re looking for ninja Lloyd, i recommend feeling for the top part of his mask. That’s how i found him!
SpideyFTW says
Thanks Jeb! I appreciate the tip, probably gonna make finding him a lot easier 🙂
Jay says
Thanks for understanding! Hopefully this will all pass soon. I really like Hoodie Lloyd!
VaderFan2187 says
Eh, I don’t, haha. His dark tan hair puts me off.
Colby says
I was wondering why you weren’t posting! I understand though. I already have 7 of the ninjago movie minifigures but I look forward to your review!
Jay says
Thanks for being understanding! That’s cool, which seven have you got so far?
Colby says
I have ninja Lloyd, Misako, N-pop girl, shark army octopus, Jay, Zane, and the lava shark. I also just ordered Green ninja mech dragon!!!
Levi says
Welcome back, Jay. Looking fw for the ninjago minifig review!
Jay says
Thanks Levi!
VaderFan2187 says
Welcome back! I recommend writing posts ahead of time and scheduling them if you have a busy schedule ahead 🙂 I often do that.
Jay says
Thanks! Haha, unfortunately, I can’t even write posts ahead of time because I don’t have time! I can only do that with press releases that come from LEGO in advance.
