For Black Friday, Amazon has discounted the LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker's Landspeeder 75341 to $167.99, a savings of 30% off. Another deal for this same product was available a few days earlier at a higher price and it sold out quickly. You won't have many more opportunities to get it on sale because the set is going to retire soon.
LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker's Landspeeder 75341
Luke's Landspeeder is a UCS, or Ultimate Collector Series, kit. It consists of 1,890 pieces and the resulting build is impressively large at 20" long, 12" wide, and 4" high. According to LEGO, "the LEGO Ultimate Collector Series represents the very best in collectible LEGO sets. Featuring hard to find, exclusive, and impressively-large LEGO sets, made especially with adult collectors in mind."
This is a faithful recreation of Luke's X-34 Landspeeder from the original Star Wars: A New Hope movie. There are plenty of cool little details here, like the exposed engine turbine with the guts exposed, the two seater cockpit with driving stick and detailed dashboard, a large specially molded windscreen, and more. Two minifigures – Luke Skywalker with his lightsaber and electrobinoculars and C-3PO – are included.
This is a really enjoyable build with a lot of different color coded interior components to make the build more user friendly, although it's still recommended for builders ages 18 and up. It's also a refreshing change from the largely monotone grey builds we're used to seeing in the vast majority of UCS models (not a fault of LEGO and more a product of the Star Wars universe).

But unfortunately, it seems as though that might not be in the cards for the legendary actor. He recently revealed that he made himself available for the fourth film, <a href="https://www.ign.com/movies/the-matrix-resurrections">The Matrix Resurrections</a>, but was turned down to reprise his role as Morpheus — so being in the next one isn’t looking so promising.</p><p>During a recent appearance on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=454&v=8AGT19Z4Rsc&feature=youtu.be">The View</a>, Fishburne explained that his experience with Resurrections didn’t exactly go as hoped, so it’s anyone’s guess what will happen in the future.</p><p>“It depends on the circumstances, who is involved, how well the script has been written. If they offer [it to] me,” the actor said of Matrix 5. “I offered my services to the fourth Matrix, and they didn’t respond well to that.

That specific event in the game is considered canon because the writer-directors, the Wachowskis, gave their approval to the game. </p><p>That said, because his death was part of an in-game event, it could very well have been retconned.

<p><a href="https://www.polygon.com/baldurs-gate-3-guides"><em>Baldurs Gate 3</em></a> has 12 classes for you to choose from when you create your character. The <strong>Sorcerer</strong> is ranged spellcaster with a power looking to be unleashed.</p>
<p>Sorcerers have a little less magical prowess than their Wizard counterparts, but make up for it by using their power flexibly. They use their willpower to command the magic swelling inside themselves. In doing so, a Sorcerer’s primary ability score is <strong>Charisma</strong>.</p>
<p>There’s no single best class in <em>Baldur’s Gate 3</em>, and the game gives you as many opportunities for creative problem solving as it does for punching. Finding the best class really just boils down to how you want to play. Even when playing solo, you’ll still manage the rest of your party, so you’ll get to experiment with multiple classes at once.</p>
<p>Read on to find out everything you need to know about the Sorcerer class in <em>Baldur’s Gate 3</em>, and learn all about the best Sorcerer subclass, feats, and build.</p>
<p><strong>Update (April 15): </strong>Added details of the new subclass introduced in Patch 8, which also adds <a href="https://www.polygon.com/baldurs-gate-3-guides/558448/crossplay-enable-use-bg3">cross-play</a> support and a <a href="https://www.polygon.com/baldurs-gate-3-guides/558449/photo-mode-how-to-use-features">photo mode</a>.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="SGjcyL"><strong>Is Sorcerer the best class for you in BG3?</strong></h2>
<img alt="Baldur’s Gate 3 Sorcerer in the character creator" src="https://platform.polygon.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/chorus/uploads/chorus_asset/file/24836372/Baldur_s_Gate_3_Classes__0002_Sorcerer.png?quality=90&strip=all&crop=0,3.4613147178592,100,93.077370564282" title="Baldur’s Gate 3 Sorcerer in the character creator" />
<p>If you’re willing to put in a little work to wrap your head around the nuances of the Sorcerer, it can be a rewarding spellcasting class to play. Mastering the class means learning to bend the rules of <em>Baldur’s Gate 3</em>’s magic with the Metamagic ability and Sorcery Points, and that means Sorcerers aren’t straightforward. Add to that their limited spell options and inability to swap spells outside of leveling up, and Sorcerers are just weird, even among the casters.</p>
<p>But if you can figure out how to play with Metamagic and Sorcery Points, and find a good spell or two, they can also be one of the most powerful classes.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-css-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="NzJhNX"><strong>Sorcerer class features</strong></h2>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="FNTWBk"><strong>Hit Points</strong></h3>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Hit Dice </strong>— 1d6</li>
<li><strong>Hit Points at 1st level </strong>— 6 + your Constitution Modifier</li>
<li><strong>Hit Points at higher levels </strong>— 4 + your Constitution Modifier per sorcerer level after 1st</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="NPlGra"><strong>Cantrips</strong></h3>
<p>Sorcerers start with four cantrips from the Sorcerer cantrip list.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="EliNdi"><strong>Spells</strong></h3>
<p>Sorcerers start with two spells from the Sorcerer spell list.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="A7VytA"><strong>Features</strong></h3>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Level 1 Spell Slots </strong>— You gain two level 1 spell slots, which are restored on a Long Rest.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="AS7ifR"><strong>Proficiencies</strong></h3>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Weapons</strong> — Daggers, Quarterstaffs, Light Crossbows</li>
<li><strong>Skills — </strong>Choose two skills from Arcana, Deception, Insight, intimidation, Persuasion, and Religion</li>
<li><strong>Saving Throws</strong> — Charisma and Constitution</li>
</ul>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-css-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="8aQcAD"><strong>Sorcerer subclasses</strong></h2>
<p>The Sorcerer has a total of four subclasses, which are unlocked at the beginning of the game. During character creation, you must choose your sorcerous origin, which is where your innate magic comes from.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="7Qmorp"><strong>Wild Magic</strong></h3>
<p>Sorcerers with the Wild Magic subclass have powers that come from wild forces of chaos. Your Sorcerer has been exposed to a form of raw magic that has welled up inside you, waiting to be unleashed. You’ll gain two subclass features:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Tides of Chaos </strong>— Activate to gain Advantage on your next Attack Roll, Ability Check, or Saving Throw.</li>
<li><strong>Wild Magic</strong> — Wild magic stems from the forces of chaos. It churns within the sorcerers that wield it, waiting to burst free.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="gouFon"><strong>Draconic Bloodline</strong></h3>
<p>If you choose the Draconic Bloodline subclass, your Sorcerer harnesses their magical prowess from draconic magic that has intertwined with your blood or your ancestors’ blood. You’ll gain two subclass features:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Draconic Resilience: Hit Points </strong>— Your hit point maximum increases by 1 for each Sorcerer level.</li>
<li><strong>Draconic Resilience</strong> — Dragon-like scales cover parts of your skin. When you aren’t wearing armor, your base Armor Class is 13.</li>
</ul>
<p>You’ll also be able to choose your Dragon Ancestor, which will follow along with the Dragonborn subraces. You must choose either Red, Black, Blue, White, Green, Gold, Silver, Bronze, Copper, or Brass as each will come with their own respective spell and resistance.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="NnZI44"><strong>Storm Sorcery</strong></h3>
<p>For those with the Storm Sorcery subclass, your innate magic comes form the power of elemental air. Either you or your lineage have experienced the dangers of a tempest, and the magic of the storm influences your very being. The Storm Sorcery subclass comes with one additional feature:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Tempestuous Magic — </strong>After you cast a Level 1 spell or higher, you can Fly as a bonus action until the end of your turn without receiving Opportunity Attacks.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="shadow-magic"><strong>Shadow Magic</strong></h3>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Added in April 2025’s Patch 8, the Shadow Magic subclass adds new, shadowy abilities to your Sorcerer. You’ll get things like <strong>Superior Darkvision</strong> and the ability to summon a <strong>Hound of Ill Omen</strong> to harass your enemies. You’ll also pick up<strong> Strength of the Grave</strong> that lets you roll to (attempt to) avoid being downed by an attack that reduces you to 0 HP.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-css-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="oSsHVe"><strong>Best Sorcerer subclass and build in BG3</strong></h2>
<img alt="Baldur’s Gate 3 Dragonborn Sorcerer in the character creator" src="https://platform.polygon.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/chorus/uploads/chorus_asset/file/25125900/BG3_Dragonborn_Sorcerer.png?quality=90&strip=all&crop=0,2.3133016084326,100,95.373396783135" title="Baldur’s Gate 3 Dragonborn Sorcerer in the character creator" />
<p><em>Baldur’s Gate 3</em> races don’t really have any direct impact on your class, but certain races and subraces come with features that play well with certain classes like extra movement or proficiency with certain weapons. For Sorcerers, it’s best to focus on grabbing an extra cantrip or resistance:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Asmodeus Tieflings</strong> and <strong>Zariel Tieflings</strong> come with a cantrip — Produce Flame and Thaumaturgy, respectively — you couldn’t get otherwise, and they both grant resistance to fire damage.</li>
<li><strong>Forest Gnomes</strong> get you the Speak with Animals cantrip.</li>
<li>Every <strong>Dragonborn</strong> subrace (color) gets a spell-like breath weapon and resistance to a type of damage</li>
</ul>
<p>When you’re creating and leveling up your Sorcerer, Charisma (for spellcasting) is your most important stat. Your second most important stat kind of depends on how you play outside of combat, but Constitution is also a good option for the hit points — Sorcerers have a tendency to be glass cannons. <strong>Make Charisma your highest stat and Constitution your second highest</strong>.</p>
<p>You’ll pick your Sorcerer subclass at level 1. While Wild Magic has a lot of fun (read: chaos) potential and the Storm Sorcery subclass lets you fly, you’ll get the most benefit from the <strong>Draconic Bloodline</strong>. This subclass gets you an extra cantrip, an extra hit point per level, and an unarmored defense bump. (And, at level 11, you can fly at will.)</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-css-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="vHXTGI"><strong>Best Sorcerer feats in BG3</strong></h2>
<p>Every four levels, you’ll get the option to either increase your stats or choose a Feat. Feats are special talents that add features to your character. If you’re happy with your stats and start taking Feats, Sorcerers can benefit from:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Actor</strong>. Your Charisma Increases by 1, to a maximum of 20. Your Proficiency Bonus is also doubled for Deception and Performance Checks.</li>
<li><strong>Durable</strong>. Your Constitution increases by 1, to a maximum of 20. You regain full hit points each time you take a Short Rest.</li>
<li><strong>Elemental Adept</strong>. Your spells ignore Resistance to a damage typ eof your choice. When you cast spells of that type, you cannot roll a 1.</li>
<li><strong>Mobile</strong>. Your movement speed increases, and difficult terrain doesn’t slow you down when you Dash. If you move after making a melee attack, you don’t provoke Opportunity Attacks from your target.</li>
<li><strong>Spell Sniper</strong>. You learn a cantrip, and the number you need to roll a Critical Hit while attacking is reduced by 1. This effect can stack.</li>
<li><strong>War Caster</strong>. You gain Advantage on Saving Throws to maintain Concentration on a spell. You can also use a reaction to cast Shocking Grasp at a target moving out of melee range.</li>
</ul>

<p>Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is now in theaters, and the biggest new addition to the cast is Keanu Reeves in the role of Shadow the Hedgehog. Director Jeff Fowler has now discussed what he wanted from Reeves when he was cast in the part and how Reeves ended up nailing it.</p><p>Speaking to <a href="https://deadline.com/2024/12/jeff-fowler-sonic-the-hedgehog-3-keanu-reeves-shadow-jim-carrey-robotnik-knuckles-1236206882/">Deadline</a>, Fowler said Sonic 3's story changed the tone of the film series to become a little more mysterious with the introduction of Shadow. Whereas Sonic, played by Ben Schwartz, is a "motormouth" who is full of "manic energy," Shadow is the total opposite.</p><p>"Sonic is saying 100 words a minute while Shadow might say five words in an hour. He's a much more closed book, more mysterious, brooding. It’s this kind of yin and yang with Shadow and Sonic. There's a really great opportunity, narratively, to have an almost bizarro version of that Sonic origin story," Fowler said.</p><a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/sonic-director-on-why-keanu-reeves-was-absolutely-perfect-for-sonic-3/1100-6528591/?ftag=CAD-01-10abi2f/">Continue Reading at GameSpot</a>

<p class="has-text-align-none">Hoopa Unbound is showing up in raids during <em><a href="https://www.polygon.com/game/pokemon-go/38713">Pokémon Go</a></em>’s <strong>Hoopa Unbound Raid Day </strong>event that runs on <strong>Saturday, Feb. 15 from 2-5 p.m.</strong> in your local time.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">During this event, Hoopa will show up in raids as a five-star target. You’ll also get up to five free raid passes from spinnin gym discs and the remote raid pass limit will increase to 20.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Previously, the only way to obtain Hoopa in <em>Pokémon Go</em> was through a “<a href="https://www.polygon.com/pokemon-go-guide/22662636/misunderstood-mischief-hoopa-event-research-quest-rewards-tasks-special">Misunderstood Mischief</a>” seasonal Special Research. If you completed this research before a specific date or paid $5, you could access an additional, limited-time Special Research called “Mischief Unbound” that would allow you to change your Hoopa’s form to its Unbound form.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">However, now all players can nab their own Hoopa Unbound (a pretty dang good psychic-type attacker), thanks to it being available in raids. Players can also swap their Hoopa’s form, even if they didn’t complete the aforementioned research <em>and</em> transfer their Hoopa Unbound to Pokémon Home — which wasn’t doable before.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Below we explain how to take down Hoopa Unbound in <em>Pokémon Go</em> raids, listing its weakness, top counters, and its best moveset to give it once you nab one.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-none">Hoopa Unbound weaknesses</h2>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Hoopa in its Unbound form is psychic- and dark-type (as opposed to its psychic- and ghost-type when its in its Confined form). That being said, Hoopa Unbound has a big glaring double <strong>bug</strong>-type weakness and a regular <strong>fairy</strong>-type weakness to take advantage of.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">You pretty much should be using bug-type Pokémon with bug-type moves — which you very likely have based on past Community Days.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none"><strong>Hoopa Unbound will resist psychic-type moves</strong>, so do not bring those to the party.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-none">Hoopa Unbound counters</h2>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Here are some of the strongest counters to take down Hoopa Unbound in <em>Pokémon Go</em>:</p>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Mega Pinsir </strong>with Fury Cutter and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Mega Heracross </strong>with Struggle Bug and Megahorn</li>
<li><strong>Mega Scizor</strong> with Fury Cutter and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Mega Beedrill </strong>with Bug Bite and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Genesect </strong>with Fury Cutter and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Vikavolt </strong>with Bug Bite and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Escavalier </strong>with Bug Bite and Mega Horn</li>
<li><strong>Volcarona </strong>with Bug Bite and Bug Buzz</li>
<li><strong>Yanmega </strong>with Bug Bite and Bug Buzz</li>
<li><strong>Golisopod </strong>with Fury Cutter and X-Scissor</li>
<li><strong>Pheromosa </strong>with Bug Bite and Bug Buzz</li>
</ul>
<p class="has-text-align-none">If you don’t have the <a href="https://www.polygon.com/pokemon-go-guide/22447919/mega-evolution-list-candy-bonus-buddy-raids">Megas</a> above, but you do have the base Pokémon powered up, you can bring them along to help, too.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">If you’re thinking, “Man, I do <em>not</em> power-up bug-types. I don’t think I can handle this!” Go check your Pokémon list for Vikavolt and Escavalier — these both had Community Day events, so it’s possible that you’re sitting on some decent ones already.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">If you have a team of powered-up bug Pokémon, you won’t need too many other trainers to help you take down Hoopa Unbound, but as usual with raids, you should try to find a small group to do so with the greatest of ease.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">If you’re lucky enough to raid in <strong>rainy weather</strong> (well, this is actually pretty unlucky if we’re being honest), then your bug-type moves will also get a damage boost.</p>
<img alt="" src="https://platform.polygon.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/02/unnamed_152f26.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&crop=0,3.4613147178592,100,93.077370564282" title="" />
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-none">Best moveset for Hoopa Unbound</h2>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Hoopa Unbound’s best moveset is <strong>Confusion </strong>with <strong>Psychic</strong>. This actually makes it the second-best psychic-type Pokémon in the game (if you’re not counting Mega Evolutions and shadow Pokémon), only coming second to Mewtwo.</p>
<p class="has-text-align-none">Including Megas and shadows, it does fall below more obvious picks like Mega Alakazam and Shadow Mewtwo, but it certainly holds its weight pretty dang well.</p>
<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" />
<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-none">Is Hoopa Unbound shiny in Pokémon Go?</h2>
<p class="has-text-align-none"><strong>No, you cannot find a shiny Hoopa in <em>Pokémon Go</em></strong>. Being a Mythical Pokémon, Hoopa has some unusual bizarre shiny restrictions and it has never been released shiny. We’re unsure if or when it’ll be available in <em>Pokémon Go</em> in its shiny form.</p>
