    Given the way Target have been advertising Lego Vidiyo on their website and in their newsletter, I’m wondering whether this theme will be exclusive to Target.

    Despite both website and newsletter stating coming 1 March, my local Target had some on the shelf this morning. Beatboxes scanning at $22 and Bandmate blind boxes $5. They only had the DJ Unicorn and Punk Pirate Beatboxes so I passed on them. I did get 2 Bandmate blind boxes – the wolf and the purple genie with the tamborine. It was a full box and I picked the 4th one from the front and the last one, both on the right hand side. Don’t know which minifigure was in which spot as the boxes got mixed up, but that might help someone.

    As someone who can identify minifigures in blind bags and doesn’t have money to waste, I don’t like blind boxes. At least all the Lego inside is in a plastic bag

      There won’t be any retail exclusivity for Vidiyo – it’s a wide release and will be available everywhere.

      Lucky you, I’ve been waiting for them to pop up in my local Kmart but no luck yet!

      I don’t like blind boxes too, but at least it’ll be (slightly) better for the environment.

    These are some of the most vibrant, crazy minifigure designs I’ve ever seen. I want all of them!! (Well, except the fairly ordinary cowboy and dude in the purple helmet… Sorry to them, but contrasted with the wacky animals, supernatural creatures, and living ice cream, they just don’t stand out anymore.)

      The cheerleader is a supernatural creature?

        The cheerleader looks like a take on the N-Pop Girl from the Ninjago CMF series…

        Well, maybe she’s half-cotton-candy 😛 I forgot about the cheerleader, the bright pink-and-blue makes her stand out more than the other 2 humans IMO.

    Hmm, a lot of those fig parts could be useful for figbarfing space, sci-fi and cyberpunk figs, and the BeatBits would be useful for LP covers or posters.

    I’m unsure of the box parts, though, possibly they could be used for air vents/ locks or windows or something, depending on how they are constructed. I’d wait for a review…

        Yes, I really hope we get some of these parts seen in the app. Some really cool torso designs you can unlock and stuff within it.

        Lego is constantly cancelling themes after 2-3 years, if the sales aren’t considered impressive enough. If the theme performs worse than expected, the shelf time could be reduced to 1-2 years.

        Ninjago was supposed to be cancelled after only three years, but the sales were unexpectedly good, so it stuck as a core theme, where designers were allowed to experiment with new sub-themes.

      Don’t think a sacrifice would be well received if it wasn’t that alive to begin with…

    While the theme is not of any interest to me, I like the look of some of those minifigs. Also you called Party Llama’s name in your initial post

        I wonder if it was something else and Lego saw your blog post and thought ‘That’s a good name’ and changed it

Back from holidays, so I'm in catchup mode for Jul Back from holidays, so I'm in catchup mode for July @lego reviews!

🎢 First up is 10303 Loop Coaster which you've seen videos off and this set is truly impressive - the #LEGO Roller Coaster gets a huge upgrade with a working lift/pulley system and not one but two Loops!

The whooshing sound is makes is terrific and exhilarating and when powered up, works like a charm.

It's also really tall, and takes up a lot of space, so might not be suitable for most people, but if you can afford it (and the Motors/Hubs) and have space for it, it's a great centrepiece for any display or collection.

Hit the link in bio for the full review!

 Special thanks to LEGO for sending this early review copy and @annegal for help with the photos while I was away!

Apart from one particular awful customer service experience (that really soured the trip), we had a pretty good time!

Fun fact, there are only 3 other Legoland Water Parks in the world, with the others in Florida, and Dubai.
