Brickipedia News:News Roundup - July 3 2014
 | by CJC95 July 3, 2014 |
SCANDAL! Well, not much of one, but still. To add suspense to your minds, I shall start this with boring news, then go to the set news and end on the scandal. Of course, this assumes that you can't just skip to the big "SCANDAL" section. But shush.
- Durham Cathedral News - 80 bricks for 80th birthday means 80 new bricks for cathedral Northern Echo
- Theft news - a toy shop in the Czech Republic is where we find our latest mass LEGO thief, who stole minifigures to order. Metro
- Teaser I - this teaser on Youtube is so successful at teasing that it doesn't show or hint that its the exo-suit. But it is.
- Teaser II - this teaser is better than the last in that it mentions the set name and a release date. Consider me thoroughly intrigued.
- Magazine news - Remember the Chima magazine? There is now a Friends one - perfect for all you girls reading this, or parents, or Berrybrick. Brickfanatics
- New Month, New Deals - You can find that here.
- DVDs still sell - The LEGO Movie still sold a lot of copies last week. Not as many as 301 sold though. Variety
- SCANDAL! SCANDAL! SCANDAL!
Greenpeace are here to tell us about the evils of Shell, who are busy killing the world, while we just sit here and get free toys with Shell stickers. To protest that took a picture of some minifigures in front of Saint Paul's, and stuck a banner on the Angel of the North at LEGOLAND. LEGO responded saying they didn't want to get involved basically, and Greenpeace responded with more of the same and an FAQ. Don't worry though, Greenpeace don't want you to boycott LEGO or anything like that, just to email them about cutting ties with Shell. Do you think LEGO should stop its partnership with Shell? or is Greenpeace just looking for an easy target? Or maybe you don't care. Comment below.
