![]() Here are some of the relatively new and interesting elements included in this set – I know some of them have been around for a year or two, and some longer. Inside the box we have three bags of parts, an instruction manual and a single sticker sheet with three stickers…Īs a bipedal robot, there is significant use of SNOT techniques in the construction of this mech, and we have a number of elements that facilitate these techniques, including the new 1×1 bracket, both up and down, present in multiple numbers. The factory code on this set, 37R8 suggests that the set was boxed up in the Mexican factory, in early September (week 37) of 2018. We have punch out tabs to open the box, but judicious use of a letter opener my avoid significant damage. The back of the box shows a more plain blue and white background, and demonstrated the stud shooter. The front and back of the box demonstrate slightly different aspects of the model: the fronts depicts a woodland setting, similar to that where Bastion was reactivated years after the Omnic Crisis. ![]() This is not the most economical set, and there are no unique elements in the set.We do have some unique stickers, including a LEGO/Blizard exclusive logo sticker and stickers for the pauldrons, but this may not do it for some. This is a relatively small set: only one hundred and eighty two elements – this averages out at over 13c/piece. I don’t think I have ever received LEGO from overseas quite so quickly. ![]() Having placed my order on October 12th, the parcel arrived via Federal Express on October 16th. The set cost $USD25 plus approximately $USD10 for shipping to Melbourne (although adding extra sets only increased the shipping by 1-2 dollars per set – you may wish to purchase in conjunction with a friend or two and split the shipping). I ordered one shortly after it became available and then proceeded to wait. Now, I don’t play Overwatch, but my son, a couple of weeks out from his final school exams has been quite a keen player, and was excited to see this new set. The set is available more places than can supply, and shipping is (by Australian standards) pretty reasonable. This was a bit unexpected, but offered some interesting opportunities as a retail experience. It’s a lovely model, but is that “Blizzard Exclusive” sticker worth the price? Last week, out of the blue, Blizzard, the publisher behind the game, announced immediate availability of the BlizzCon Exclusive ‘Omnic Skin Bastion75987’ set from their Gear Store. Here are the complete details of everything you can get.For the last few months, we have been teased with announcements of a forthcoming range of LEGO® sets based on the video game Overwatch. If you watch up to six hours from the list of eligible streamers, the items will be available to you once you get back into your game. Once you connect your Blizzard and Twitch accounts, you can watch select streamers and get more sprays and player icons based on how many hours you watch. On top of the in-game challenges, you can watch Twitch streamers for a chance at receiving even more Lego-themed items for the game. If you win six total games, you will also get two sweet sprays - Mercy and Pharah - and of course getting to nine wins gets you the Lego-themed Bastion Skin. If you win three games you will receive two new player icons (Bastion-based). The Bastion skin isn't the only prize available, though.

That should be relatively easy, as the games can be a variety of wins in either quick-play, competitive, or arcade mode. ![]() ![]() Bastion's Brick Challenge will be going on until September 30th so there will be plenty of time to get the skin, but you will need to win nine games. ![]()
