  • Japan Brickfest 2018
    Japan BrickFest 2018 By Richard Jones Last June I visited Japan BrickFest 2018. The fourth Kobe Fan Weekend took place on Rokko Island, in the port city of Kobe, near Osaka and Kyoto. Organised by Edwin Knight and members of the Kansai LEGO® Users Group (KLUG), this event is a LEGO® hub event for Asia. Exhibitors attended from all over the world – predominantly countries from around Asia, but the USA and Australia were also represented. I arrived on Friday afternoon and set up in one of the two gymnasiums used for the display, accompanied by the majority of builders visiting from overseas. We shared the space with the Great Ball Contraption, a brick built monorail and a train layout. NEXO Classic Space by Richard Jones LEGOLAND Japan had a display, and there was also an area to get your hands on some bricks and just build! The other gymnasium had many exhibitors from around Japan, and a theatre had larger scale models from members of the Kansai LEGO® Users Group. I had taken my NEXO Classic Spaceships. (Imagine the 1978-79 Classic Space sets built with NEXO Knights elements and colours.) This was the third time I had displayed them this year, but the frst time they had travelled more than 1000 km from home. I set about the task of discovering how my models had survived at the hands of international baggage handlers, as well as with myself bouncing between multiple railway stations. I set up my terrain and installed the lighting. Everyone I met was extremely friendly, offering words of encouragement as my various models were unwrapped in more pieces than I remembered them being in when I wrapped them up.

  • LEGO® Sonic Mania™: from Idea to Retail Set
    LEGO® Sonic Mania™: From Idea to Retail Set Sam Johnson’s first reaction when he saw that the LEGO Group may be designing a new set based on SEGA’s® beloved Sonic the Hedgehog™ was elation, that was followed quickly by a sense of dread. “The first game I had was Sonic the Hedgehog,” said Johnson, who is the design manager on the LEGO Ideas® line. “So immediately that kind of childhood connection kicks in and you have all these nostalgic feelings of, 'I really hope this goes through and I really want to be a part of it if it does.’ And then I had this dread of, ‘Well, how are we going to make Sonic?" Earlier this month, the LEGO Group announced it was in the process of creating a Sonic the Hedgehog set based on a concept designed by 24-year-old UK LEGO® superfan Viv Grannell. Her creation was submitted through the LEGO Ideas platform where it received 10,000 votes of support from LEGO fans. The next step was the LEGO Group reviewing her project among the many others that make it past that initial hurdle to see if it should be put into production. Johnson said he found Grannell’s build charming. “It’s so much in the vein of the actual video game itself which has this kind of colorful charm to it,” he said. “And it's not over complicated, which I really loved. Sonic has this real geometric design to it where the landscape is very stripey and you have these like square patterns on it.

HOW LEGO CONSTRUCTS A CROSS-PROMOTIONAL FRANCHISE WITH VIDEO GAMES by David Wooten A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee August 2013 ABSTRACT HOW LEGO CONSTRUCTS A CROSS-PROMOTIONAL FRANCHISE WITH VIDEO GAMES by David Wooten The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2013 Under the Supervision of Professor Michael Newman The purpose of this project is to examine how the cross-promotional Lego video game series functions as the site of a complex relationship between a major toy manufacturer and several media conglomerates simultaneously to create this series of licensed texts. The Lego video game series is financially successful outselling traditionally produced licensed video games. The Lego series also receives critical acclaim from both gaming magazine reviews and user reviews. By conducting both an industrial and audience address study, this project displays how texts that begin as promotional products for Hollywood movies and a toy line can grow into their own franchise of releases that stills bolster the original work.

  • 2015 FIRST Annual Report
    Gracious Professionalism® mind engineering assist st development 21 century skills 2 015 ANNUAL IMPACT REPORT 1 mind international assist “When I gave this thing the name FIRST®, I said ‘It’s all about inspiration. If we don’t change what they’re inspired by, the world will.’ When I thought about that, it never occurred to me that one of the people who engineering would end up being inspired is me. By all of you … And I hope that you all inspire each other.” technology FIRST Founder, Dean Kamen We’ve always been Our founder, inventor Dean Kamen, has been saying it for over 25 years – “Our mission is about more than building robots; we are working to inspire and change a culture.” FIRST® (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) — a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity whose mission is to help develop our students into tomorrow’s science and technology leaders and innovators — uses young people’s interest in, and fascination with, robots as the “honey” to draw them into a progression of fun, engaging robotics and research programs. In the process, they learn the importance of team building and mutual respect, gain self-confidence, and develop crucial leadership and life skills, as well as master much-in-demand STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) knowledge. They are transforming into tomorrow’s leaders. Kids building robots is a clever disguise for a rapidly expanding community devoted to altering our culture into one where scientists and engineers are celebrated and revered on the same level as athletes and celebrities.
