Legoland Malaysia Brochure

I am proud to blog the pictures of the Legoland Malaysia brochure and it has the Legoland Malaysia map. Thanks to Leroy from SG0937 for allowing me to share this.






There are 6 major attraction in the park, divided into Lego Technic, Lego City, Lego Kingdom, Miniland, Imagination and Land of Adventure

THE BEGINNING (which is the entrance)
This entrance area is where the fun begins. The Big Shop offers the largest selection of Lego Toys.

LEGO TECHNIC
All heroes must face a challenge. On the TECHINIC Test Track, it's building up the courage to brave razor sharp turns and drops. Then power ski on Aquazone Wave Racers as you dodge water blasts.

LEGO CITY
This is where kids can captain a boat and drive their own LEGOLAND cars and even get a driver's license. And at LEGO City Rescue Academy, the entire family can race in LEGO fire trucks to hose down a "burning" building.

LEGO KINGDOM
This kingdom is yours to protect. Conquer The Dragon, romp through the hideaways and ride astride at the Royal Joust.

MINILAND
At Miniland, millions of LEGO bricks form spectacular reproductions of Malaysia's landmarks, including Kuala Lumpur with Petronas Twin Tower. There will also be other Asian icons such as Merlion (Singapore), Angkor Wat (Cambodia), Taj Mahal (India) and many more.

IMAGINATIONS
The Imagination is a place for the true LEGO fan. Everyone in the family can build and play with LEGO bricks and games. The Kid Power Towers lets you climb up for an amazing view before you drop and pull yourself up again. There are no limits to your imagination here!

LAND OF ADVENTURE
Journey through this forgotten city's ancient temple ruins to recover a pharaoh's stolen treasure. Bettle Bounce gives kids a boost as they are launched up on Egyptian obelisks. And for the bravest families, test your courage at the Dino Island.

2012 LEGO SUPER HEROES Magnets

Just realized that Lego will be coming out with the super Heroes magnets. I am really sad that these days the minifigure cannot be detected from the magnet.

New book from Sean Kenny - Cool Castles

Kenny Sean will publish new book - Cool Castles. I personally love his idea in the book. However, there are too little pages to satisfy me. I own his Cool City series and the book feature plenty of ideas on furniture and building. Of course, they are not as extensive as those ideas in The Lego Ideas book. Well, the new book - Cool Castles will be available on 16 October 2012 and it is currently available for pre-order in Barnes & nobles.



Previous books published by Kenny are listed in my previous blog:
