Johnny Thunder escapes the scorpion pit!

Our hero escapes the scorpion pit with the Golden-Sun-Disc!

I've re-built the "Trapped in the pit" vignette into this "Pit escape" vignette.

Johnny Thunder in the scorpion pit

Johnny Thunder is running with the Golden-Sun-Disc when he suddenly finds himself trapped in the scorpion pit. Will our hero ever escape!?

This is a vignette I made with a Johnny Thunder mini-fig and a few scorpions.

My LEGO Network is out!

A new site on LEGO.com called "My LEGO Network" launched after the BETA TEST period was over. Beta Testers had a chance to test MLN before it was even out, and I was one of them!

If you sign up for the recently-tested fully-functional MLN, you can Build Modules for your page, collect stickers and little sounds called "Loops" ... not to mention that you can even trade virtual items!

Here is the to the site: http://mln.lego.com/en-us/network/status.aspx

Another funny screen-shot from LEGO Star Wars II

You can prepare a "Dance Party" in Chapter 2, Episode VI, in LEGO Star Wars II.

LEGO Universe behind the scenes

The LEGO Company has been working hard to create a MMOG (Massively Multi-player Online Game). Everyone is excited, even I can't wait for it to launch sometime 2008!

They are still creating the game as I speak. So far, they have created a mini-site that lets you read the latest news from the game programmers themselves! You can even sign-up for the monthly LEGO Universe newsletter!

50th anniversary of the LEGO Brick

It's the 50th anniversary of the LEGO Brick. That's right, it's the50th anniversary of the LEGO Company's Crown Jewel. I wonder what makes the LEGO Brick so attractive? Could it be it's dexterity? Maybe it's because of the LEGO Brick's variety of colors? Whatever it is, people sure are falling for it!

LEGO Indiana Jones video game coming out

Some of you may already know this, but there will be a video game based on the LEGO Indiana Jones sets. The game will let you play through out the first three Indiana Jones movies (Raiders Of the Lost Ark, Temple Of Doom, The Last Crusade, etc.).

According to the game trailer, found on the Indy site on LEGO.com, the gameplay is similar to LEGO Star Wars II (Which makes sense, since both are made by the same company).
