ComicCon 2007 - Lego Indiana Jones the Video Game announced!

O-M-G! Lucas Games just announced LEGO Indiana Jones the Video Game! Lego Star Wars was one of the greatest games of all time, so this is just huge information for not only fans of LEGO and Indiana Jones, but fans of gaming as well!

During the film shown, Indiana Jones was shown cracking his whip and shooting with his gun, not to mention swinging on cords, jumping over large gaps, and running away from the large boulder found in the film.

I'll post the new video of the game later, so stay tuned!

Currently, no consoles are announced yet.

Some new Lego sets.

This summer there are over 90 new Lego sets that you can buy, and with that said, I obviously won't be able to cover them all in one post or in one day, so each day I'll list a few of the new models, and also give my own opinion on each one.

*Mars Mission: MB-01 Eagle Command Base - This is the main set for the Mars Mission series, and costs $89.99. In all, it features four astronaut minifigures, each one with their own accessories. It also has a rather large rocekt, and as the name suggests a base for the astronauts. Along with that the set has an alien space ship and a few alien minifigures. The set also inclues a missile launcher that can launch four foam missiles. In all there are 763 pieces. In my opinion, this set looks pretty cool, and I'd say that it'd keep the little ones occupied for a long time.

*Lego Batman: The Batcopter: Chas for Scarecrow - This summer there are two new Lego Batman sets, and this one features two flying machines: The Scarecrow's biplane and Batman's Batcopter. It also features two minifigures - One of Batman and one of Scarecrow. It costs $29.99 and has 293 pieces. It may cost a lot for less that 300 pieces, though the models are really well made and it also includes missiles!

*Lego City: LEGO City Harbor - This new set features a large cargo ship as well as a crane and a dock. The towering crane can lift cargos onto the ship. t also includes 5 minifigures, a truck, a jet ski, and much more. It costs $89.99 and there are a total of 661 pieces. From the looks of it, there's a lot going on here, and when I was a kid I know I would've loved to have this.

Legoland thinking of Illinois.

Those whom have been keeping up with the new Legoland thempark news should know that Oakland Park in Kansas (which happens to be very close to where I live), said that they won't be supporting the park, so Lego is looking elsewhere. They are now thinking of Columbia, Illinois. This doesn't mean that it's certainly going there, though it is a high possibility.
