June 29, 2024 / / 0 Comments

There is just a little bit over 16 hours to get your pre-orders in for the BrickLink Designer Program Series 2 sets. There are still three sets still available and unless there’s a huge surge of orders by then, it doesn’t look like they will sell out. This means that the quantities produced for them will be a lot less than the Mushroom House and the Brick Cross Train Station and that could be them more desirable on the secondary market for those who are collecting these sets.

The embargo for this year’s LEGO Inside Tour has been lifted and the set that is given away for attendees and for 2024 it is The Vault Memory Lane (4000042). The set represents the vault that is in the LEGO House that holds one of every LEGO set that has been produced.

The LEGO Inside Tour sets are some of the most coveted LEGO sets as they command a premium price if/when they hit the secondary market and I’m pretty sure that this one will be on the higher side. If you live in Europe some of the sets can probably cover the cost of the whole tour itself.

LEGO Ideas Artists Cafe – The University House Removed from Second 2024 Review Stage

It looks like a project has been removed from the LEGO Ideas Second 2024 Review Stage with no explanation. While updating my list of 10k supported projects for this review stage, I noticed that the Artists Cafe – The University House by 2PPL has gone missing. The builder’s page is still so they haven’t been banned and they’re pretty active but 403 forbidden page which means it has been disqualified for review.

LEGO hasn’t really been transparent on why certain projects have been removed. I believe they do notify the builder but unless they come out and public state why their project was removed, we won’t know why.

What Other LEGO Transformers Sets Would We Like to See Revisited – June 2024

June 15, 2024 / / 0 Comments

I presented this question when Optimus Prime (10302) was released and now is a good time to revisit since Bumblebee (10338) was just announced but what LEGO Transformers character should see next? Now that we’ve gotten two Autobots checked off, theoretically we should see a Decepticon as the next set if LEGO continues this series.

The obvious choice is Megatron but I’ve already mentioned before that I’ll be hard for LEGO to make him as a gun or tank for his alternate modes. Even if it’s fantasy, LEGO has avoided making military-type sets so I would guess that LEGO would go for the jet mode from the movies or the Beast Wars T.Rex.

If Megatron can’t be touched, I don’t see why not since he is the main antagonist, I next clear choice is Soundwave. He is my favorite Decepticon and he’s a cassette player with various cassettes that also transform. He could potentially have lots of play features with all the different cassettes and shouldn’t bee too hard to transform since his legs just fold down from the sides and the legs pop out from the sides. Now that LEGO has introduced the sound brick, for the LEGO Harry Potter Talking Sorting Hat (76429), it wouldn’t bee too hard to implement some voices for Soundwave.

Starscream could be another possibility and he has the same issue as Megatron as LEGO has it make it look not too military for his jet. His Cybertron jet is a little more fantasy so LEGO could go that … Continue

LEGO Celebrates Inaugural International Day of Play

June 11, 2024 / / 0 Comments

Today the world celebrates the first ever International Day of Play which was adopted by the United Nations. Whether you’re an adult or have kids, just take some time today and play. It doesn’t matter if you’re building a new LEGO set or playing a board game with familiy and friends, the point of today is to have fun.

Everyone needs to play more – our future depends on it

The first International Day of Play is celebrated on June 11, 2024. On this day every year hereafter, the world will celebrate the power of play.

By Niels B. Christiansen, CEO, LEGO Group
Sidsel Marie Kristensen, CEO, LEGO Foundation

Play is never just play. Play is universal and taps into children’s natural enthusiasm and curiosity to learn. Play teaches children to explore, to wonder, to connect ideas and experiences and help them gain a deeper understanding of the world that surrounds them. When children play, they develop essential life skills such as creativity, confidence and resilience that help them thrive as they grow up.

Playing takes little more than picking up a stone or a stick. The only real investment is time. Yet, both parents and children indicate that the demand for children’s time away from play is increasing – with play time often being deprioritized.

In a recent survey of 25,500 children and 36,000 parents in 36 countries commissioned by the LEGO Group, 59% of parents indicated they worry that their children do not have enough playtime, do not have enough access to fun activities

LEGO Insiders Community Shutting Down June 26

June 10, 2024 / / 0 Comments

A while back, LEGO launched the LEGO Insiders Community which served sort of a forum/news area for AFOLs by AFOLs. LEGO today has announced that it will be shutting down June 26 and the content will be integrated into LEGO Ideas. I don’t think many people used the LEGO Insiders Community platform since it was newly launched and I didn’t really see LEGO advertising it too much. The last content update was back in March while fans sparingly posted in the forum area. Did you use this platform or did you even know about it in the first place?

We wanted to share an update with you. As part of the LEGO Group’s journey to offer fantastic experiences for adult builders, we’ve decided to close the LEGO® Insiders Community platform, effective June 26, 2024.

We’re eager to innovate and find more ways to connect with you and other builders, and whilst we’ve taken lots of great learnings from the platform, this decision allows us to streamline and focus on making improvements to our other experiences.

We’re asking our fans who use LEGO Insiders Community to join LEGO Ideas. Additionally, we’re moving the content from LEGO Insiders Community over to LEGO Adults Welcome and we’ll be broadening out our offerings there as well.

LEGO Ideas has relaunched the fan vote for the If We Can Turn Back Time due to an error last week in choosing the finalists.

Replacing that project is the LEGO brick scene from Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. Your votes should have been reset and you can now rechoose your pick. The winner of this fan vote will be announced on June 14 and there will be a second fan vote which should start soon after and that winner will be announced on September 1.

LEGO Ideas If We Can Turn Back Time Fan Vote to be Reset

April 29, 2024 / / 0 Comments

After a weekend of controversy, the fan vote for the LEGO Ideas If We Can Turn Back Time building contest will be reset with five new projects from five different creators. Due to an oversight of the rules, the fan vote consisted of two projects from the same creator which was prohibited in the TOS stating that only one entry per person would be considered fro the fan vote. This reset will not impact the second fan vote in September. Full details of the fan vote reset will be coming soon.

We wanted to thank you all for your feedback surrounding the Fan Vote for this challenge. We have read your comments and deeply appreciate your support.

In response to your feedback, we will be restarting the Fan Vote, with 5 projects, from 5 different creators. One of the submissions by the same creator will be replaced with a new submission. This is in no way a reflection on the quality of any of the submissions and is solely due to an unfortunate mistake from us.

We will have full details in the Fan Vote relaunch blog coming very soon, however, we can tell you this will not impact the other Fan Vote for this challenge (which we’re very excited about!).

While we’re resetting this Fan Vote, it’s important to note that the creators who have received thousands of votes for their submissions, haven’t done anything wrong. Please be respectful of every, and all, of our incredibly creative challenge participants.

Thank you all, for your patience

Do You Keep or Resell LEGO Gift with Purchase Sets?

April 5, 2024 / / 0 Comments

The Mimic Dice Box (5008325) gift with purchase set for the new LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale (21348) sold out in less than a day and the secondary market for the set looks to have become the most expensive GWP in recent memory. Currently, they are going for about $135-$140 on eBay while BrickLink is still in the low $100s. We don’t usually talk about reselling sets that much but this topic is a part of the hobby and for some, a job. For a long time now, reselling LEGO has been a polarizing topic. Fans are usually either for or against it but there’s also some in-betweeners as well.

As we know by now, the yellow box GWPs are a more limited quantity than the standard box sets and some of them tend to command a higher premium if you missed out originally. Since it’s still early and fans still haven’t received theirs yet if they ordered online, the prices are still high but will settle down a little in the coming weeks as orders are getting delivered.

That begs the question, do you care about the sealed secondary prices of the LEGO gift with purchase sets or do build them as if they’re any other set? Furthermore, do you resell the GWPs to recoup some of the money for the main set(s) you’re purchasing?

United Nations Adopts International Day of Play

March 26, 2024 / / 0 Comments

The United Nations has adopted an International Day of Play to protect children’s right to play and it will be held on June 11.

UN signals importance of play by adopting official International Day of Play

• Global partners have successfully called on the United Nations to adopt an International Day of Play to champion and protect children’s right to play.
• The International Day of Play will be June 11th, with the inaugural celebration to take place in 2024.
• Global research surveying more than 25,000 children across 36 countries reveals that as many as 73% of children don’t believe adults take play – and how it can help them learn – seriously1.

Billund, March 26th 2024: Play is a fundamental right for every child. Yet, the importance of play in helping children develop life-long skills is often forgotten. With only 30% of adults aware that play is a fundamental birth right adopted by the United Nations (UN) in 19892 there is an urgent need to put play back on the agenda.

To drive this ambition forward, a dedicated network of global organisations, play experts and, most importantly, children and youth themselves, have called on UN member states to support the resolution for an International Day of Play. The LEGO Group, the LEGO Foundation and other founding members of the movement are proud to announce that the UN General Assembly has adopted this international awareness day.

Niels B. Christiansen, CEO of the LEGO Group said about the adoption: “We believe that all children should benefit

The obvious ones are the LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale (21348) and the LEGO Art Batman: The Animated Series Gotham City (76271).

The Flower Trellis Display (40683) will be the main general gift with purchase set which runs from April 1-16 with purchases of $150, while supplies last. The second run of the GWP will be from May 27 – June 9. The Mimic Dice Box (5008325) will only be available when you purchase the Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale (21348) and it will last from April 1-7 but my guess is that it’ll probably sell out way before that.

In the Rewards Center, you will be able to get the LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago Docks (40704) using 2,700 points.

LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box (5008325/6510865) GWP Review

March 21, 2024 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box (5008325)

The LEGO Ideas Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale (21348) was announced a few days ago and it was confirmed that if you purchase the set from April 1-7, you can get the 168 piece limited edition Mimic Dice Box (5008325/6510865) as a gift with purchase set.

LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box (5008325)

The set comes in the yellow box packaging which may suggest that it’ll be a fairly limited release, especially for you online shoppers. I wouldn’t be too surprised if it sells out within the first few days of going live.

Inside the box, you get the instruction booklet sleeved up front with a ziplock bag of the parts behind.

LEGO Dungeons & Dragons Mimic Dice Box (5008325)

The finished build was simple and pretty quick with the Mimic measuring 10 studs wide by 6 studs deep. The mouth is connected on a hinge on the back and it has four printed eyes. There’s enough room inside the box to fit in a few D20s inside (not included).

LEGO Minifigure Factory Review

March 16, 2024 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Minifigure Factory

Last week, LEGO announced that the LEGO Minifigure Factory has returned to the LEGO Shop after launching the beta for it a few years back. Here you can personalize your own LEGO character, sigfig if you will, for a price of $11.99 per minifigure. LEGO recently gave us an opportunity to check out the new additions to the system including more heads, bodies, and accessories.

LEGO Minifigure Factory

During the process of making your character, you can choose from a wide combination of head, headwear, torso, legs, and accessories. The torso has more details that you can choose from such as the clothing, decorations, and text. For the clothing, you can pick from solid, plain, patterns, or outfits. The outfits have more stylized options that you can choose from. You are able to design the torso on the back as well with the same options.

LEGO Minifigure Factory

LEGO Minifigure Factory

One thing I noticed when designing the back of my minifigure is that the coloring on the physical minifigure is a little darker than what you see on screen. As you can see below, I personalized the back of the torso and it seems fine on screen but when I look at it in hand, you can barely see the letters. I had to super zoom in on the minifigure to try to make out the words. I would suggest if you’re using a darker torso color, use bright letter. You can also see some issues with the pad printing with the minor scratches.

LEGO Caught Using AI Generated Content – Releases Statement

March 15, 2024 / / 0 Comments

We all can agree that the use of artificial intelligence is a controversial subject and LEGO recently has been caught using AI images on their site. Over on the now taken down LEGO Ninjago character quiz, there were plenty of AI images of the characters, some of which were very badly made. You can see that on the hands on some of them.

LEGO has released an official statement about this issue. On one hand, they have a policy of not using AI generated content but they also state that AI “offers interesting opportunities” so I’m not really sure if they’re really against it or not.

We have a clear policy not to use generative AI to create LEGO® content. We fundamentally believe in the wonder and power of human creativity and will continue to encourage and celebrate the talented artists who help bring our brand and characters to life.

These images were used in a test which happened outside of our usual approval processes, and we will take all necessary steps to ensure that it won’t happen again.

We believe generative AI offers interesting opportunities and we will continue to explore how we can use it to improve the experiences we offer and our ways of working.

LEGO Flower Store (40680) Sold Out in LEGO Shop US

March 1, 2024 / / 0 Comments

In less than 12 hours, it looks like the LEGO Shop has sold out of the LEGO Flower Store (40680) promotion. The gift with purchase item was supposed to last until March 11 but even with a $200 price requirement, it sold out faster than I expected as it does not show up in the cart.

The best chance to get it now is at a LEGO Brand Store if you have one nearby or if you’re really desperate, the secondary market but I would hold off for a few weeks so the prices come down. It seems that the bigger promos are now selling out way faster so if you see something you want at new launches, I would not hesitate to buy it (if funds are available).

There is still the LEGO Friends Beach Clean-up (30635) + LEGO Animal Crossing Maple’s Pumpkin Garden (30662) polybag bundle with purchases of $50 in Animal Crossing, City, Creator 3-in-1, DREAMZzz, or Friends which also runs until March 11.

LEGO March 2024 Shopping Guide

February 23, 2024 / / 0 Comments

March is just around the corner and it will be a pretty big month in terms of LEGO releases as it is the third largest of the year. As of right now, there are about 50 new items on the LEGO Shop that will be available from pretty much a majority of the LEGO themes including the highly anticipated Animal Crossing.

As for any gift with purchase sets go, LEGO hasn’t officially announced anything yet although we’ve seen plenty of GWP items such as the Flower Shop (40680) and the LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago City (40703) although they haven’t said when they will be released. We’ll just have to wait until the end of this month to see what will be dropping overseas first to see what we’ll be getting.

February 23, 2024 / / 0 Comments

Since I returned to the hobby over a decade ago, Bricks by the Bay has been hosting their annual LEGO conventions and have been doing so until last year where it was cancelled due to reasons unknown and was looking forward to holding one this year. They have recently announced that Bricks by the Bay has been cancelled again for 2024 and will be on indefinite hiatus. Again there was so more information besides that but will update when they decide to return in the future.

Dear Bricks by the Bay Builders, Vendors and Visitors,

There will not be a Bricks by the Bay in 2024, and the convention is on indefinite hiatus. If and when the convention resumes, we will send out an update at that time.

Thank you kindly for all the wonderful times! We hope to see you in the future!

It asks how you feel from a variety of mockup product offerings from hoodies, t-shirts, up-scaled LEGO items, travel mugs, backpacks, and more that you can check out and see if you would like to buy something like that and where you would buy it at. The items you see are not the final product but could be something you would see in the near future.

We are excited to invite you to participate in a 15-minute survey about our licensed merchandise product offerings. At the LEGO® Group, we are constantly striving to innovate and expand our portfolio, and your feedback will play a crucial role in guiding our decisions.

This survey aims to understand your current shopping habits and preferences, alongside your insights on licensed merchandise concept ideas (non-brick products; clothing, books, storage solutions). Your responses will inform our team’s efforts to identify new business growth areas and enhance the LEGO® licensed merchandise portfolio.

We welcome any additional feedback or suggestions you may have regarding LEGO licensed merchandised products. All responses provided in this survey will be anonymous and used for research purposes only.

LEGO Micro Rocket Launchpad (40712) GWP Sold Out for General Release?

February 19, 2024 / / 0 Comments

Today was supposed to be the general release of the LEGO Micro Rocket Launchpad (40712) gift with purchase set on the LEGO Shop but it looks like that won’t be happening, at least in the US. Unless there’s some sort of delay on the LEGO Shop, it appears that the set has been sold out since it doesn’t even show up in the cart even after adding the required $200 to get it. Once big clue was that it wasn’t available yesterday when the promotional period for LEGO Insiders was still going. LEGO Brand Stores could still have them in stock so I recommend calling them to check.

If you’re not a LEGO Insider, I highly suggest signing up for this free program as you can earn points towards discounts and other LEGO items that are exclusive to it.

LEGO Disney Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ Cottage (43242) Officially Announced

February 15, 2024 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has revealed a brand new LEGO Disney set coming for LEGO Insiders March 1 with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ Cottage (43242). Coming in at 2,228 pieces, the set will retail for $219.99 and it features the cottage as well as the glass coffin. It has minifigures of Snow White, the seven dwarfs, the Prince, and the Evil Queen.

As mentioned before, LEGO Insiders can get get it on March 1 while the general release is on June 1 which is a three month gap in between. I may be mistaken but I don’t think I’ve seen a huge gap between release dates before like this. I guess this pushes fans to become LEGO Insiders to get sets earlier.

Update: The set will be for LEGO Insiders from March 1-3, everyone else on March 4, and perhaps June 1 for other retailers.

This seemingly suggests that LEGO could be releasing a set for the movie in the future. Wicked premieres in theaters this Thanksgiving so if there is a set made, it wouldn’t be released until around the holiday time. If LEGO does make a Wicked set, what do you want to see in it?
