The LEGO Movie spending spree continues

I went to two Data Blitz stores over the weekend to see if they had Bravely Default. Sadly, both stores are out of stock :(

Because my money wants to leave me so badly, I looked for something else to buy.

Surprise! The World Ends With You is available! I've been searching for this game for a long time. I played this a long time ago in my DS but unfortunately, I only downloaded the ROM in a flash cart and it was corrupted.

Then... The LEGO Movie Videogame! Boyfriend and I were debating as to whether we should get this for the 3DS or PSVita.

"Better graphics" was his main argument.

"I'm buying" was mine.

The LEGO Movie

WE FINALLY SAW THE LEGO MOVIE LAST FRIDAY!!!

 It was awesome!

Amidst all the bouquet-toting couples, boyfriend and I decided to watch The LEGO Movie -- because we stopped caring about Valentine's Day. We initially thought that we couldn't because Sure Seats (where we buy our tickets in advance to avoid lines) showed that Greenbelt was showing only one movie: a love story one. Blech. Luckily, they added more and The LEGO Movie was one of them.

The story was lighthearted and the dialogue was funny. +++ points because Liam Neeson and Morgan Freeman were part of the voice actors as Bad/Good Cop and Virtuvius respectively. It was a good concept for a movie, though predictable (cue "Man from Upstairs"), but it was well-made. No boring parts for me!

And the theme song! I've been singing it since last night!

Anyway, we dropped by Hobbes & Landes after the movie because, well... See for yourself:

Yep, they were already selling the mini-figures. Series 1 is out and it has 16 figures in total. The series includes Emett, Bad/Good Cop, Lucy, Shakespear, Lincoln, Business and some of Business' robots.

We got Business, Emett, Panda mascot and Bad/Good Cop.

President Business has his Octan cup

Emett has his instruction manual. Unfortunately, he doesn't come with hair outside of his hardhat.

Bad Cop with his phone and handcuffs.

Turn his head around and you get the drawn creepy Good Cop face!

The Panda Mascot comes with a mini Panda..so cute!

Alternatively, you can remove the panda head to reveal a boring guy underneath

I really wanted to get the Mermaid, unfortunately they were all out. Bummer. Hopefully, series 2 has Unikitty. I love Unikitty. Oh and Virtuvius!

LEGO Death Star Landing Bay

D'aaawwww... Look at all them little brick stormtroopers! And a tiny Vader and Sidious too!

Apparently, this set up costs $2,300 to complete. That's like more than my annual salary. Maybe I should start demanding to be paid in LEGO bricks....

In related news:

What I wouldn't give to dress up all of my 6 dogs with this really detailed AT-AT costume. They'd be so cute and I think they'd walk awkward like real AT-ATs too (lol "real").

LEGO Minas Tirith

That's right! That's Minas Tirith! And yes, it's made of Lego bricks!

I'd love to see this up close! I've always been a Lego fan, but my huge stash of Lego got lost along the way to grade school and high school and my sister.
