New Lego Minecraft Summer 2015 Sets

New Lego Minecraft Sets 2015

There is going to be a new Lego Minecraft wave of sets released. The summer 2015 sets will arrive in August (although you will probably see them pop up a week or two early). It looks like there will be 2 smallish sets, and 2 large sets. It is interesting that there are no small impulse buy sets. The Lego Minecraft line is not the most affordable, and this release continues that trend. Two of these new sets will see the first Minifigures of Alex. The female counterpart to Steve. Maybe someday she will be able to sell a set all my herself. The new Snow Golem looks extremely goofy, and it’s good to see the famous Minecraft Wolf represented. The big mystery (at least for me) is the 154 graffitied all over the Nether set. If you know what it means, let me know in the comments.

The Dungeon (21119) is the smallest set and comes with Steve and 2 Zombies.

The Snow Hideout (21120) is a medium sized modular set with Steve, a Creeper and the all new Snow Golem.

Be on the lookout in August for these new Lego Minecraft sets.

Rock Golem, A Lego MOC That Grows On You

This Rock Golem makes a great Lego MOC, full of personality and character. This Golem looks like it would be at home in a Hayao Miyazaki film, or in the world of the Neverending Story. The simple design for the face is great and breaks up the more detailed body. It is also interesting to see blue colors used in the rock body, something you don’t see everyday.

“Getting back to nature. Thought it would be fun doing some greenery. I’ve been inspired by some great nature/castle builds lately and thought how could I create something that still links back to the figures I’ve been building. (Bricks inspired by Derfel Cadam)”
