Australian Mid-2015 LEGO Catalog Released Online!


Recommended Posts

LEGO.com has released a digital catalog (Australian edition) featuring the sets for the second half of 2015! This includes new sets from themes like BIONICLE, Ninjago, Elves, Technic, Minecraft, and Star Wars! There is even a teaser for the Star Wars: The Force Awakens sets coming this September, and although none of those sets are shown, it does give us our first glimpse of the LEGO minifigure version of lovable new droid BB-8! Follow the link above to flip through the new catalog!

Am I the only one who noticed how they screwed up Kopaka's image?

Meh, not an uncommon layout mistake. It's been done many times in both new and classic Bionicle (not to mention other sets and themes entirely).

It's interesting that the front cover features the set 42027: Desert Racer. That set was released more than a year ago. I guess it's just a mistake, like the one Vakama35 and Lyichir were talking about, which also occurred in a previous catalog that came out earlier this year/end of last year.

 

This is probably the catalog that's going to get shipped to me. It's great to see that the release date for the skull villains is August, which I'm pretty sure is the same release date for the U.S. That's unusual...

The cover also features the High Speed Chase set and My First Train Set, both two years old, and and the version of Sensei Wu that appeared only in 2011 sets. However, it's hard to tell whether that's truly a mistake or a case where the cover designers just didn't care about whether the cover used current sets as long as it stuck to current themes.

As an addendum, the US version of this catalog has a short story blurb about the new BIONICLE sets!

"Battle the new, evil Skull Warriors to take back the golden masks before they are corrupted! The epic confrontation between good and evil over the Mask of Creation — Mask Maker vs. Skull Grinder — is about to begin. Which side will you choose?"
 

It also includes character bios for some of the new Ninjago characters. Lloyd still doesn't get a signature weapon...

By the sounds of that story blurb, the longer the Skull Warriors have the mask, the closer the masks are to becoming fully corrupted. 

 

So, there goes a lot of theories regarding that condition of those four Golden Masks of Power.
