Jaws LEGO Set

I absolutely adore LEGO. It's so fun to sort out the pieces and build something amazing. I had been considering this Jaws set for awhile, so when I saw that it's being retired this summer, I knew it was time to go for it. I love how detailed the Orca is. Bruce the shark looks incredible and Hooper, Brody, and Quint are instantly recognizable. It's a fantastic addition to my collection. 

LEGO AT-AT AT-Attack

LEGO/Lucasfilm

LEGO shorts are so fun, and generally quite silly. This Star Wars short features Din Djarin and Grogu attacking AT-ATs on an ice planet.

The Mandalorian and Grogu arrives in theaters today, May 22nd.

Din Djarin and Grogu join Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run for an exciting new adventure. Here's the official description from Disney:

In this new storyline, Hondo Ohnaka has caught wind of a high-stakes deal unfolding on the sands of Tatooine, where ex-Imperial officers have crossed paths with a ruthless band of pirates. With a hefty bounty on the line, you’ll take possession of the Millennium Falcon, join forces with Mando and Grogu, and launch into a daring pursuit across the stars.

Adding to the fun, each role introduces fresh gameplay moments, new interactions, and unexpected surprises along the way. A new interactive feature allows the engineer position to check in on Grogu throughout the mission, and make the pivotal planet choice that charts the course.

New collectibles such as toys, puzzles, water bottles and clothing will be available at multiple locations in the Parks and at Disney Springs: Tatooine Traders, Mission: SPACE Cargo Bay, Star Wars Galactic Outpost, or World of Disney.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu blasts into theaters this Friday, May 22nd.
