United Nations Adopts International Day of Play

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

LEGO April 2024 Shopping Guide

April is just a week away and here’s a very quick shopping guide of what new LEGO sets will be dropping on the LEGO Shop. It’s be a smaller month in terms of new releases but there are some big hitters coming that fans will be interested in. 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 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.

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

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

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

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

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 Part of Walmart Collector Con 2024

Bricks by the Bay LEGO Convention Indefinitely Cancelled

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!

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?

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.

Another rumor that has surfaced in the past few days is that there will be a whole LEGO Collectibles Minifigure line dedicated to Dungeons & Dragons coming late summer.

LEGO Teases Wicked Movie Set

Super Bowl LVIII is going on right now and during one of the commercial breaks, Universal Pictures showed off their trailer for the upcoming Wicked movie starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. LEGO on their social media accounts without any pictures posted “Wonder if LEGO bricks could defy gravity…💚👀”. Also, a reply to the Wicked account on X/Twitter, they posted “Emerald City here we come!”

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?

LEGO Confirms Ninjago and Legends of Chima Are Connected

LEGO over on YouTube has been doing teasers for LEGO Ninjago: Dragons Rising Season 2 and their latest one finally confirms one of the character’s origin to LEGO Legends of Chima. Lord Ras and Jordana are trekking through the Wyldness and while talking, Ras mentions that the Forever Rock is one of the regions of his land. Fans of Chima know that the Forever Rock was the place where Laval and Cragger used to play as kids while marking their game wins on the rock.

Fans have been wondering if the two themes were related and there have been questions asked during the SDCC Ninjago panels if Chima was part of Ninjago or if Ras was from Chima and it looks like we can confirm that they are canon. LEGO has done a good job with the storyline of the merged realms which allows them more flexibility to connect Ninjago to other themes. We’ve already seen that done already with LEGO DREAMZzz last year.

LEGO and Hasbro are teaming up again this year by officially announcing LEGO DUPLO Peppa Pig sets coming in 2024. The first episode of Peppa Pig aired in May 2004 and LEGO will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of the show with sets that will be revealed at a later time.

Hello Peppa Pig! Hello Daddy Pig!

The LEGO Group Welcomes PEPPA PIG Franchise into LEGO® DUPLO®

The LEGO Group, Hasbro and Merlin Entertainments Join Forces to Create PEPPA PIG Products & Play Experiences

Billund, January 23rd, 2024: A delightfully unexpected mashup of companies founded in fun and play is now revealed between the LEGO Group, Hasbro and Merlin Entertainments, who are coming together to bring a truly joyful and beloved character to life in LEGO® DUPLO® form – PEPPA PIG!

LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago City (40703) GWP Official Images

The official product page for the LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago City (40703) is now up on the LEGO Shop. It has 339 pieces and it is listed as a gift with purchase set so it looks like it’ll be different from China where it’ll cost Insider points to get.

Since the set is now up on the LEGO Shop, it probably means that it’ll be released pretty soon. There’s no mentioning on what the price requirements are but I’m assuming it’ll be about the same or maybe lower as the Houses of the World sets from last year which required $250 purchases each.

Ninja fans aged 10 and up can now build their own micro model of NINJAGO® City with this fun and detailed playset. Micro NINJAGO City (40703) is a downsized version of the bigger NINJAGO City (70620) building set and features a bustling 5-story city block with teahouses and a rooftop sushi bar. The micro city can also be connected to 3 other micro sets (sold separately) to complete a small NINJAGO City.

LEGO Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree (77092) Rumored for 2024 Release

There’s a new rumor that we could finally be getting a LEGO Legend of Zelda set with the Great Deku Tree (77092). Word has it that it’ll be released in September and it has 2,500 pieces. If you’re not familiar with the Great Deku Tree, it was first introduced in Ocarina of Time, then later appears in The Wind Waker, Breath of the Wild, and Tears of the Kingdom and is the guardian of the Kokiri. The rumor also suggests that there will be a few characters from Hyrule including Link with his Hylian Shield. The pricing is still unknown at this time but I expect it to be around $300+ given the piece count and licensing costs.

LEGO has been working more with Nintendo brands with Super Mario and Donkey Kong so it’s not much of a surprise that the Legend of Zelda will finally complete the iconic trio of Nintendo characters. LEGO fans have long awaited for a Legend of Zelda set as there have been numerous projects on LEGO CUUSOO and LEGO Ideas for this game but every one of them haven’t passed their respective review stages.

As always, these are purely rumors until LEGO announces them or images show up at an online shop.

LEGO Year of the Dragon (40611) Official Images

LEGO has finally revealed the upcoming LEGO Year of the Dragon (40611) gift with purchase set. The dragon is part of the ongoing series of LEGO zodiac animals which should be finishing up in a few years. There’s still no word on when the set will go live but I’m assuming it’ll be pretty soon since the Lunar New Year is just a few weeks away.

Mark the 2024 Lunar New Year with this LEGO® Year of the Dragon build-and-display set (40611) for ages 8 and up. The dragon model features the zodiac animal’s iconic big eyes and a movable tail. It comes with a brick-built base representing the sky and clouds, plus a red paper envelope symbolizing good wishes. A fun Lunar New Year gift idea for all the family to enjoy, this model is part of a collectible series of LEGO zodiac animals.

There’s only a couple of days left to get your orders in for the LEGO Icons Retro Food Truck (40681). The promotion ends tomorrow night but you can still get it with purchases of $190 or more online or in stores. LEGO will most likely start a new promotion in the next few days however we can’t confirm it yet because they don’t like to announce GWPs ahead of time now. My guess is it’ll be the LEGO Year of the Dragon (40611) since the Lunar New Year is about three weeks away.

The Brick Fan 2023 Recap

It took a while but I’ve finally had some time to do a 2023 recap for The Brick Fan. Some of you guys might not be interested but it’s for my reference since I love stats.

Our post count went down again last year, down to 885, however, we almost hit the 30 million page view mark. We barely missed it by just 100,000 views which sounds about right since we had less posts. Last year, it was more family time for me as I was taking care of my mom more after her cancer surgery and I prioritized that a little more than what happened LEGO-wise. I expect that’ll be about the same this year as well.

The highest traffic day was on May 1 with 251,277 page views when a lot of the summer 2023 sets were revealed that day. The higher traffic trend continued for the next seven days with over 100k views each day.

Unique visits and returning visits were also down due to me posting less which is understandable. Some days were just low volume postings simply because there was no LEGO news to cover. I didn’t want to post just to post unlike some of the more prolific sites. We should be hitting the 200 million page view mark early this year so that’ll be something to celebrate.


Our social media accounts are just chugging along with some small increases in followers. Again, the numbers could grow a lot more but I don’t advertise too much for them. I could … Continue

LEGO Ninjago Micro Sets Looks to be Insider Rewards

Earlier today, we got a first look at the LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago City (40703) but the real question is how to get it. Well according to LEGO China Weibo, it’ll actually be a LEGO Insiders reward which will cost 6,500 points to redeem it. Every quarter in 2024, LEGO will drop a new set in January, April, July, and October and it’ll cost 6,500 each. Yes, you read that right. I believe this will be one of the more expensive items that have been released in the Rewards Center, next to the LEGO DC Batpod (5004590) which cost 15,000 points when it first launched.

As a reference, $1 equals 6.5 points so that means you’ll need to spend $1,000 each quarter to get it or $4,000 in 2024 to get the set of four builds. To be honest, you can actually get all four full sized sets at their current prices, even secondary prices for the retired ones, and still have a 37% of the money left over. For sure, these micro sets will command a high secondary price once they sell out, if they sell out.

Ninjago City (70620) – Retired ~$950
Ninjago City Docks (70657) – Retired ~$850
Ninjago City Gardens (71741) – $350
Ninjago City Markets (71799) – $370

LEGO Ninjago Micro Ninjago City (40703) Revealed

LEGO China has revealed a new LEGO Ninjago set with the Micro Ninjago City (40703) which could be a future gift with purchase set. It contains 339 pieces but the price requirement to get it is still unknown at this time. It is basically a downscaled version of the Ninjago City (70620) from The LEGO Ninjago Movie. If you look on the back of the box, it shows three other sets in silhouettes and it looks like it’ll be sort of a Houses of the World thing where there are Ninjago GWPs spread throughout the year.

40704 is the Micro Ninjago Docks and is based on the Ninjago City Docks (70657) also from the movie. 40705 is the Micro Ninjago Gardens and a smaller Ninjago City Gardens (71741). Lastly, 40706 is the Micro Ninjago City Markets which is the latest large-scale Ninjago set 71799.

Looking at the scale of them, they’re about the same size as the Houses of the World and my guess is that they’ll be a $250 price requirement if they are GWPs which I think they will be.

LEGO Best and Worst Sets of 2023

The end of 2023 is now here and according to Brickset, there have been about 921 LEGO products that have been released this year. Here’s the shortlist of my top five sets as well as top five flops of the year. Of course, this is my opinion and your list may differ widely.


TOP SETS OF 2023

LEGO The Lord of the Rings Rivendell (10316)

The Lord of the Rings theme came back in a very unexpected way. Instead of releasing a small wave of sets, we get one of the biggest sets that LEGO has produced in a while. The 6,167 piece set featured a very nice representation of Rivendell that was highly detailed with scenes from the movies.


LEGO Icons Eldorado Fortress (10320)

I’m a big fan of nostalgia and LEGO has been hitting the mark with these classic-style inspired sets the past few years. Eldorado Fortress gives the old-school feel of the 1989 set but with a modernized finish. The addition of the pirate galleon is also appreciated because it basically gives you another set as it was based one from the Imperial Trading Post (6277).


LEGO Indiana Jones Temple of the Golden Idol (77015)

Indiana Jones is one of my favorite movie series and I wasn’t back into the hobby when the first sets were released but back in April, LEGO came back with three more Indiana Jones sets. My favorite of the three was the Temple of the Golden Idol simply because it features some of the main opening scenes … Continue

LEGO Indiana Jones Amazon Sales – November 2023

If you’re looking for some decently priced sets for the holidays, Amazon currently has two of the LEGO Indiana Jones sets on sale. They’ve been discounted for a little bit now but it looks like we won’t be seeing any more sets for 2024. Unfortunately, the Temple of the Golden Idol (77015) still hasn’t seen a discount yet. I don’t believe the LEGO Indiana Jones theme was cancelled but just put on the backburner to focus on other themes. I’m surprised that there wasn’t any sets for the Dial of Destiny either.


Fighter Plane Chase (77012) – $27.99/20% off

LEGO Ideas The Orient Express Train (21344) Sticker Production Issue

The release of the LEGO Ideas The Orient Express Train (21344) is just around the corner but there is a sticker issue with the set in case you are building it right after release date. There are two sticker sheets in the set and one of them has incorrect coloring it. As shown below on the left, stickers 9, 10, and 14 are supposed to have a metallic silver finish to them but there will be some sets that have stickers with a flat flame-orange coloring.

LEGO Ideas The Orient Express (21344) Sticker Error

LEGO has already caught the error and has already provided the new stickers in future production runs. If you do get the wrong sticker sheet, LEGO suggests contacting Customer Service to get the replacement stickers. Below is the official statement that LEGO has provided about the issue.

We identified a color error in the sticker sheet for LEGO set 21344 and we have already implemented the change for future production runs. In the meantime, the parts warehouse has stock of the correct sticker sheets and we will provide replacement stickers upon request.

LEGO Marvel Taxi and Majisto’s Magical Workshop Out of Stock on LEGO Shop

In less than a day, the US is already out of stock on a few LEGO Black Friday 2023 gift with purchase sets on the LEGO Shop. The Marvel Taxi (5008076) which came with the Avengers Tower (76269) and Majisto’s Magical Workshop (40601) are already gone and it may seem that the mini Falcon Knight’s Castle is also gone from the Rewards Center. I can’t confirm that because it only shows that I redeemed the code but I’ve been told by a few readers that it already went out of stock 30 minutes after Black Friday started. If you still want the promos, your best chance is to see if a local LEGO Brand Store still has them in stock or you may have to resort to the secondary market.

It seems that LEGO is doing well for Black Friday this year even if the promotions don’t seem as flashy as previous years. There are still 190 items on sale from various themes for every price range and you can still get the Winter Market Stall (40602) with purchases of $170.

BrickLink Back Online After November 3 Incident

After a few days of downtime, BrickLink is now back up and running with operations seemingly back to normal. As confirmed, they did get a ransom letter and from their investigations and they’ve been looking into some suspicious activity on the site since October. At this point, they suggested that it was a credential stuffing event in which cybercriminals use stolen usernames and passwords from another site to access BrickLink. As a result, you’ll have to change your passwords when you access the site and suggest not using the same ones as for other sites.

Welcome back and thank you for your patience. We were down for longer than anyone would have wanted. Now that we’re back up and running, we can share with you what’s happened.

As many of you will know, we received a threat and ransom demand on Friday, November 3rd. We’d been aware of and actively managing some limited suspicious activity since mid-October, with unauthorized sellers offering products at huge discounts and fraudulently accepting payment from buyers.

As soon as we were aware of the potential escalation on November 3rd, we put the site into maintenance mode out of an abundance of caution. We did this to protect our members and keep complete control of the platform while investigating.

We found that a relatively small number of BrickLink accounts may have been accessed. It is important to note that there is no evidence so far that our systems were compromised.

At this stage we believe this was a ‘credential stuffing’ incident, where

BrickLink Confirms Site Accessed by “Unauthorized Individuals”

Last Friday, BrickLink went into maintenance mode and users on the site weren’t able to access it. The reason they gave was they were investigating some “unusual activity.” Many people speculated that the site may have been hacked and some users were given ransom messages.

After a day or so of radio silence, BrickLink finally started giving some updates and today they confirmed that their investigations revealed that a small number of accounts have been accessed by “unauthorized individuals.” This pretty much confirms that the site was hacked mostly likely due to old coding that’s still in use.

There’s still legitimate fear that some store inventories may have been wiped out which could be damaging to one’s livelihood. Even the site being down for a few days surely have impacted sales for many already as well as for buyers.

As of right now, BrickLink is still down and will be offline for the foreseeable future. Hopefully, they’ll keep up with the regular updates.

Friday November 3rd, we temporarily closed the BrickLink site due to unusual activity.

Since then, the team has been working super hard to make sure we can reopen as soon as possible – and we’re getting closer to doing that.

Our investigations so far suggest that a very small percentage of our accounts may potentially have been accessed by unauthorized individuals. We’ll be in contact with people directly soon with more details.

Thank you for your patience and support – the kind posts we see from all of you on social media make

BrickLink Under Maintenance Mode Due to Possible Hacking Situation

If you’ve been on BrickLink the past few hours, you may have gotten a maintenance message but behind the scenes, the site may have been hacked. The main page gives the following message:

We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you. We are currently investigating some unusual activity, so it’s too early to speculate further. We will share more information once it’s available.

In addition, it also appears that there have been ransom messages sent out to a number of BrickLink accounts for both buyers and sellers wanting Cryptocurrency or else items and store inventories will get deleted.

Obviously, if you have a BrickLink account and have used the same password for other platforms, I would suggest changing those passwords just to be safe. There’s been no official word from BrickLink or LEGO at this time and we’ll see if they do give any updates on the situation.

Thanks to Michael on Meta for the heads up on this piece of news.
