Lego Monster Fighters: Swamp Monster

Here's a picture found on the interwebs of the new Swamp Monster from the upcoming Lego Monster Fighters! This little guy looks to be the coolest of the new minifigs, as many of the others (Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster) look to be based off previous minifigs.

Lego Monster Fighter Pictures

Update: Apparently Lego has been busy, I had to update the video embed because the original one was removed. Sorry about that - hopefully we'll have some official pics soon!

Check them out on this embedded video. The 'first on the whole internet' claim is dubious, but we'll let it slide because we want to share the pictures without having to deal with a cease and desist order.

LEGO MONSTER FIGHTERS!!!

You can bet your ass I'm going to be posting all about this ASAP - leaked pictures of Lego Monster Fighters have been making their rounds on the interwebs!!! That's right kids, MORE LEGO MONSTERS!!!

So far I see a new Werewolf sculpt and a brand spankin' new Lego Creature From the Black Lagoon!! It also looks like they're using the usual Lego Ghost, the new Lego Frankenstein and new Mad Scientist (from Minifig Series 4), and the Lego Mummy (from Minifig Series 3). There's also the Lego Vampire (from Minifig Series 2), a new Female Vampire in the same set, and what appears to be flying Lego Werewolves (WTF!?!).

Summer 2012 is just around the corner, expect more details soon!

Lego Gollum Revealed (kinda)

Well, it didn't take long for Friday's News of Lego Lord of the Rings to generate severe buzz around the interwebs, and with any highly anticpated release there are usually spy pics. Having seen the preliminary pics I looked as best I could for hints of new creatures and creepys that could populate my Lego Monster collection. One thing that made me very happy was a fuzzy picture of Lego Gollum. Now, I was worried about this guy when I heard the news. I figured he'd end up a minifigure with a printed head, or at best a special head like Lego Dobby.

Lego Dobby from Harry Potter

Well, judging by this fuzzy little picture it looks like we're getting a special BODY sculpt for Gollum, which little Smeagol rightly deserves. I can't wait to get a better look at this little guy!

Lego Gollum from the Shelob Attacks Set

I was also pretty jazzed about the appearance of the Cave Troll, but we'll have to wait for a better picture of him. Shelob looked good, too, but she reminds me a LOT of the Aragog spider from the Harry Potter sets.

ParaNorman Trailer

And now we have the ParaNorman trailer just in time for Halloween. This reminds me of my childhood and looks like pure magic! Can't wait to watch this one!

Lego Voldemort - Renaissance Man

This video is floating around to promote the new Lego Harry Potter game (years 5-7). Fun stuff. Halloween tomorrow!!!

Lego Minifigure Series 6 and 7 Pics - No Monsters!?!?

Well I am just flabbergasted! As excited as I am for some of the cool new minifigs coming out in 2012 there just aren't any cool monsters! The minotaur could count if you want to get technical, but he's more mythological than a 'monster'. I will pick some of them up, though, because they're awesome. The genie is great, and he can live in the treasure room of my haunted castle. I we knew about those two from earlier reports on series 6, what surprises me is the lack of anything monstrous in series 7!!! Based on past series I had my hopes up that we'd get at least one little ghoul in each run, but I guess that was just a fools hope.
