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.

LEGO Design Seminar 2023 Cosmic Daydreams (DS2023) Includes Purple Classic Space Astronaut Minifigure

A few days ago, LEGO held their 2023 Design Seminar and there was an exclusive LEGO Classic Space set given out as gifts with the Cosmic Daydreams (DS2023). The seminar was a space themed so not surprising that the give was also space related. What’s most interesting about the 148 piece set is that it includes a purple Classic Space astronaut minifigure. The description of the set reads:

Everyone has their role to play in space – Pilots, Scientists, Engineers, even Mech-Operators. But the purple Spaceman, that one’s the Dreamer. Dreamers imagine the impossible and bring their wildest thoughts to life! They inspire us to look up, ask the big questions, and build a better universe for everyone!

It even displays the huge NOT FOR RESALE sign that LEGO puts on various items so it’ll be pretty hard to get this set. For those who collect the astronaut minifigures in various colors, you can still get the various pieces on Pick-a-Brick and the torso can be found with the Space Creature from the Series 22 Collectible Minifigures (71032) but it does have some arm printing so it’s not a totally a pure purple torso. Unless a LEGO designer decides to move on from LEGO, we probably won’t be seeing this set hit the secondary market anytime soon. Hopefully LEGO will include the purple astronaut in a future set.

Today is the last day for the October 2023 LEGO Insiders Double Points event on the LEGO Shop. Fans have gotten some good deals during this event including the LEGO Star Wars UCS Razor Crest (75331) which currently still has a 30% discount.

The next double points event probably won’t be happening until the Black Friday Insider Weekend which I assume would be happening November 17-19 ahead of the real Insider Black Friday event the week after.

LEGO Fortnite Llama (5008257) Revealed in Product Certification?

Over on the LEGO Certification page, there’s an entry for set number 5008257 which is for a Llama. If you’ve played Fortnite before, it does have a very similar look to the Supply Llama that spawns at random locations on the map. It looks small enough to assume that it could be either a polybag or a Make & Take set. There’s no word yet on when it will be released.

LEGO Animal Crossing Theme Officially Announced

The rumors have been confirmed as LEGO has officially announced the LEGO Animal Crossing theme on social media. The theme is based on the highly popular Nintendo game which originally came out in 2001. The sets are slated to be released in 2024 as reported by the set names that were revealed last week but we only had the set numbers for them.

In the teaser you can see that the characters will be minifigures which include Rosie, Bunnie, Marshall, Kappa, Fauna, Julian, Isabelle, and Tom Nook. The minifigures do give off FABULAND vibes, don’t they, with their big anthropomorphic heads.

LEGO Discontinues Employee Minifigure Business Cards

If you’ve been to past LEGO events and conventions and there are LEGO employees attending, there’s times where they could hand out minifigures representing their business cards. The minifigure would resemble the employee in some ways and would also have their names on it. Since these are fairly rare, and do fetch a premium on the secondary market.

As an eBay Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

Today LEGO has announced that they will be discontinuing this tradition and will only be for the owner family and their Executive Leadership Team. There’s no official reasoning given in the statement but there’s a chance that LEGO could bring it back for other LEGO employees and departments, although there’s no guarantees yet at this point. I was fortunate to get one from a former employee many years ago and I’ll keep it stashed away in my vault.

We recognize the culture of trading amongst fans and trading minifigures with employees. We recently made the change that employee minifigure business cards will be for the active owner family and ELT. We could see a new culture develop for other LEGO employees and departments but with this change just happening, we don’t know what the future holds.

LEGO Jurassic Park: The Unofficial Retelling Trailer

A few months ago, Peacock announced a new LEGO special that retells the story of the original Jurassic Park movie in brick form and today, they have released the trailer for the movie.

LEGO Star Wars Collectible Clone Wars E (5008162) GWP Sold Out in Various Regions

In less than 12 hours, the new LEGO Star Wars Collectible Clone Wars E (5008162) promotional item is now out of stock on the LEGO Shop for various parts of the world. The US is out of stock but you can still check your local LEGO Brand Stores to see if they still have any. Considering you needed to purchase the UCS Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser (75367) to get it with its high price point, I’m surprised to see it out of stock so quickly but then again, the Venator was a pretty hyped ship when it was first revealed. As a result, the secondary market is reflecting that for GWP as some has already sold for upwards of $50. With not many posted so far, they’re now listed around $80-$100 and will probably hover there until more are posted.

LEGO Architecture LEGO House (21037) Available in UK/Europe – October 2023

If you’re in the UK or parts of Europe like France, you can now purchase the LEGO Architecture LEGO House (21037) exclusive set again on the LEGO Shop. The set doesn’t go on sale that often online as it is a Billund exclusive at the LEGO House itself. The set can’t be sold here in the North America due to legal issues with the packaging and paperwork so if you really want it, have a friend overseas try to get you one. I assume it’ll only be available for a few days or until they sell out.

LEGO x Lofi Girl Collaboration Coming Soon

In one of the more interesting collaborations in recent times, LEGO looks to be having an upcoming partnership with Lofi Girl very soon. Formerly known as ChilledCow, Lofi Girl is a YouTube channel that provides livestreams of lo-fi hip hop music and usually has the iconic girl in the green sweater studying or relaxing.

In the video clip shown on their social media channels, the girl is just studying and suddenly her pen turns into building bricks.

One thing to note is that LEGO already had a subtle nod to Lofi Girl back in 2021 with the LEGO Monkie Kid Spider Queen’s Arachnoid Bases (80022). As you can see below, the set had a sticker showing her on the screen as an Easter egg.

LEGO Marvel Studios Series 2 Collectible Minifigures (71039) Already Being Stolen in Stores

Only a day after its official release, fans are already finding open boxes of the Series 2 LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigures (71039). As you can see in the image, this was found at a Walmart with at least 20 of the blind boxes opened up. It was noted by the OP that a lot of pieces were missing from them as well.

We already knew going in that this was a very bad idea even though to LEGO, it was more environmentally friendly for them and the consumer. I guess we’ll start seeing retailers putting them in security cases or behind the counters to deter thieves. This has turned out to be more of a headache for fans as compared to the bagged ones.

As an eBay Affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

If you want to collect the set, I suggest just going to the secondary market. You may pay a little bit more than if you would buying them at retail but you don’t have to worry about getting doubles or even finding them at all because of issues like this. Hopefully LEGO sees the issue and complaints from fans and retailers to know that this wasn’t going to end well.

What LEGO Disney Mini Sets You Want to See in the Future?

The last couple of years, LEGO has released some smaller LEGO Disney sets based on iconic locations in their history such as the Mini Disney Castle (40478) and the Mini Disney The Haunted Mansion (40521). That theme will be continuing this year as yesterday they revealed the Mini Disney Palace of Agrabah (40613) which will be releasing in October. It’s a similar style to the previous two sets but it will not include a minifigure which is the most glaring omission.

Nevertheless, it’s another location from a Disney IP and that makes me wonder what we could be seeing in the future if they do decide to continue this line. There’s almost an unlimited number of locales that LEGO could use from their vast range of IPs. Even just at the Disney parks, there’s a bunch of rides that could be made like Space Mountain, the Monorail, and the Dumbo Flying Elephant. If you’re a fan of these sets, what do you want to see LEGO make in the future if they do decide to continue the line?

Possible Way of Figuring Out LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71039) Characters

The new LEGO Marvel Studios Collectible Minifigures Series 2 (71039) officially comes out in a few weeks and the most glaring issue with them is that they are packaged in boxes. This means that you won’t be able to feel out the characters like we’ve been doing so for years. In addition, the layouts of full boxes look to be all random so listing them on how they are set won’t help that much.

Luckily, LEGO has provided some clues on the boxes themselves. Underneath the box is your standard UPC code and next to it is a stamp with some random numbers. This is the secret to finding the ones you want.

Each character has their unique five digit stamp along with the serial number run below it. Even though some of the characters have the same top number, the bottom numbers are substantially far from the other one.

I’ve verified this with the box that LEGO sent over for review and the individual characters have their own run of numbers. Unless LEGO made a limited number of the set, the numbers could change later on so I can’t guarantee that they will have the same serial number run with future productions.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594) Review

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

The release date of the LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594) is still a mystery but we have an early copy of the set to check out. The set looks to be at a European location this time.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

The build is split into two bags and also has a small sticker sheet for the wooden panels.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

The house has a 12×10 footprint and sits on two stories. On the lower level, your eyes goes straight to the logs that are stacked up on the right side. The log tiles are actually printed pieces which is nice since you don’t want to put on stickers for all of them. The adjacent wall has a stack of logs along with an ax.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

Next to the door is a barrel filled with tools as well as a bench. The wall next to that has a pillar along with some shutters next to the window.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

Going up, the balcony has some flowers to give it some color contrast.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

The upper floor doesn’t have that much besides more windows and shutters.

LEGO Houses of the World 3 (40594)

The inside of the house has a lot more going on. The living room has a sectional sofa with a log table in the middle of the room. There’s also a fireplace, a record player, and a painting in the area. On the opposite end, there’s a table with some cheese and chocolate which may suggest that the house is located in Switzerland.

LEGO San Diego Comic Con 2023 Recap

LEGO SDCC 2023

Just like that, San Diego Comic Con 2023 is now over but here’s a recap of the LEGO happenings during the four days. First off is the LEGO booth itself which they have named it LEGO Brickbuster Video. This is a play on the old Blockbuster Video stores. Throughout the store, there were displays of upcoming LEGO sets from various themes. On the shelves were VHS cassette cases featuring movies and themes in LEGO form.

LEGO SDCC 2023

LEGO SDCC 2023

The back wall named New Releases was filled with creations from fans. Some of the themes for the builds were unplanned and spontaneous such as the Spongebob ones and Pikachu ones. I was told that fans took inspiration from the builds that were already on the shelves and they made their own version.

LEGO SDCC 2023

LEGO SDCC 2023

There were also brick-build statues that fans could take pictures with. The builds were made to look like the old 2D cardboard cutouts that you could find at Blockbuster stores. Fans could take pictures with them and share to social media to get corresponding pins of them. The ones for this year were Captain America, Sonic the Hedgehog, and a speeder bike from Star Wars.

LEGO SDCC 2023

There was a Coming Attractions billboard showing some of the current and upcoming LEGO shows and specials. Some of the new shows coming soon include LEGO Masters: Holiday Bricktacular, LEGO Marvel Avengers: Code Red, LEGO Star Wars: Mandoween – Celebrate the Season, LEGO Masters: Season 4, LEGO Disney Princess: The Castle Quest, and one confidential show that they never revealed. Any guesses on … Continue

LEGO Masters Season 4 Trailer – Winning Build Becomes Official Set

The LEGO Masters panel happened a few days ago and yesterday they dropped the official trailer for season 4. Will Arnett is back as host and Jamie Berard and Amy Corbett will again be the judges. In addition to winning $100,000 and the title of LEGO Masters, for the first time ever, the winning build will become an official LEGO set.

Hopefully, the set is a smaller rendition of the winning build because we all know that the final challenge is an over-the-top one and would probably be the most pricey set ever.

I will recap the LEGO Masters panel from San Diego Comic Con 2023 in the next few days after I recover a bit.

LEGO Ninjago SDCC 2023 Exclusive Riyu Revealed

At the LEGO Ninjago talent signing today at San Diego Comic Con 2023, Doc Wyatt on his social media showed off an exclusive LEGO Ninjago polybag that was given out to fans. The polybag features Baby Riyu (6484261) with glowing eyes which is different from the ones in the regular sets.

So far, none have surfaced yet on the secondary market but do expect it to be a bit pricey when it does. There’s also a small chance that this is just a pre-release figure and will be in sets in the future like with the Bard from The Hobbit many years back.

LEGO at San Diego Comic Con 2023

San Diego Comic Con 2023 is just a few days away and it looks like LEGO will be having a decent presence this year. They will still have their Booth #2829 which will be selling sets there but they haven’t revealed what will be displayed on the floor. I do have information about what will be going on there this week but it’s embargoed for another few days.

There were on LEGO exclusives in the portal and it’s already been closed so there’s nothing to expect there. They still could do something at the booth itself but we’ll see.

You can follow my Twitter or Threads to stay updated when things are happening there in real-time.

LEGO x Project K Building India Together Panel at SDCC 2023

At San Diego Comic Con 2023, there will be a Hall H panel for Project K which is India’s first Mytho-Sci-fi narrative. At first look, it doesn’t really involve LEGO but in one of our press emails, there will be a LEGO collaboration with Project K. I’m not sure how it will all fit in as the description is still pretty vague but I’m very interested to see what it is about. Project K will be the first Indian movie to be featured at Hall H at SDCC and it’ll be on Thursday, July 20 at 1pm.

Recognizing LEGO’s extraordinary creativity and ability to inspire, we see a remarkable opportunity for collaboration.

Most Indian children did not grow up with LEGO in the 90s and 2000s however as adults, they view LEGO with the sight of missed nostalgia.

Collaborating with Project K opens up the path for LEGO to enter the homes of Indian children and youth who wish to experience the joy of building and the pride of creation.

Integrating Indian cultural elements into LEGO sets and characters would offer a fresh experience for billions around the world and would open doors to a new era of imaginative play and cross-cultural appreciation.

LEGO: I Had a DREAMZzz Last Night About Ninjago! Panel at SDCC 2023

The Thursday panel schedule for San Diego Comic Con 2023 is now live and there will be one for LEGO which is the LEGO: I Had a DREAMZzz Last Night About Ninjago!

The panel will be held on Thursday, July 20 from 10:30-11:30am in Room 6BCF. Of course, I will be in attendance I’ll most likely be doing the live post as I have done in previous years. You can follow me on Twitter or on Threads for that. Hopefully, I have time to juggle between the two.

BrickLink Announces MOC Pop-Up Store Pilot Program

BrickLink has announced a new pilot program called the MOC Pop-Up Store which allows select BrickLink Designer Program submissions available for purchase through the BrickLink Marketplace and on LEGO Pick-a-Brick.

Fans will be able to purchase digital instructions from the BrickLink Designer Program Series 1 and 2 and can either use BrickLink or LEGO Pick-a-Brick to get the parts from. Essentially, this means you can purchase some of the other builds that weren’t chosen from the five finalists from each series.

The BrickLink MOC Pop-Up Store will only be inviting a select group of 5 BDP fan designers to participate so it’s possible that you may not see projects that were previously voted on before. The pilot will run from August 29 through mid November.

MOC Pop-Up Store pilot will make select BrickLink Designer Program submissions available for purchase through BrickLink Marketplace and LEGO Pick a Brick this fall.

Fans will be able to order digital building instructions and choose to have loose elements fulfilled by either BrickLink Marketplace sellers or LEGO Pick a Brick for a limited time.

Los Angeles, USA – July 5, 2023: Today, BrickLink announces the MOC Pop-Up Store pilot, a test program that allows LEGO® fans to purchase digital building instructions and loose elements of select BrickLink Designer Program submissions.

LEGO Not Part of San Diego Comic Con 2023 Exclusives Portal (For Now?)

The San Diego Comic Con 2023 exclusives portal is now live and it doesn’t look like LEGO will have any exclusives for sale this year. We’re still a few weeks away from the event and there’s still time for companies to add themselves to the list since we have until July 16 to submit our entries but so far, it’s not looking promising. There’s a chance that they could do something directly at their booth but that would be a mess and I can already hear the security say “you can’t stand here, keep moving.”

The last time that LEGO did any exclusives was back in 2019 before the pandemic closed everything down the year after. Back then, they had a few exclusives that lucky fans were able to purchase as well as minifigures that were given away at random. LEGO did sell their exclusives online in 2020 at various retailers and they went rather quickly with some of them managing to restock a few times. Other than that, it’s been quiet the past few years and it looks to be the same this year. Again, I’ve heard that they were done with exclusives altogether because of the reselling that people do during the con and they weren’t happy with that but that’s just a rumor that was relayed to me a few times.

LEGO Disney 100 Years Celebration (40600) Sold Out Online – North America

In less than a day, the LEGO Disney 100 Years Celebration (40600) gift with purchase set has sold out on the LEGO Shop here in North America. In fact, it lasted less than 12 hours after it went live 24 hours ago. I’m also hearing that LEGO Stores didn’t get much in stock either so that makes the set rather rare. As a result, the price of the set on the secondary market is starting to slowly reflect that as prices are heading up to $70 on it.

It’s not really that surprising since LEGO released two new popular Disney sets that qualified for it including the Disney Hocus Pocus – The Sanderson Sisters’ Cottage (21341) and the Disney Castle (43222) with the former already in backorder status shipping in 60 days. We’re not sure if LEGO has more of the Disney 100 Years Celebration for a future release since they tend to re-release them again months later.

LEGO Marvel Visual Dictionary Amazon Pre-Order Live

Amazon has recently put up the product page for the upcoming LEGO Marvel Visual Dictionary which includes the exclusive Iron Man Armor Model 64 minifigure. The paperback version lists the minifigure is included with but the hardcover version doesn’t show it, however, the images in the middle of the product page seeming shows that the hardcover does have it.

If I have to guess, I would say that both will have the minifigure but I cannot guarantee it. I took the chance and ordered the hardcover just to see. The book will be released on September 19 and it is eligible for returns/replacements within 30 days so there’s no harm.

LEGO Confirmed for Exhibit Floor at San Diego Comic Con 2023

The Exhibit Floor layout has been released for San Diego Comic Con 2023 and we can confirm that LEGO will be on display once again. They’ll be at their usual spot at Booth #2829 although we don’t know yet what will be on display there. If I had to make a guess, I would think there will be something involving LEGO DREAMZzz since it’s their newest IP.

In addition, we’re not sure if there will be any exclusive LEGO sets or minifigures that will be given away like with previous years. If you remember, LEGO didn’t have anything last year besides some panels and I’ve heard rumors that they were done with exclusives so we’ll see since companies have been starting to ramp up their reveals as we speak.

I will be there once as press so I’ll be attending most, if not all, the LEGO panels and will be reporting on them as they go on. Many readers seem to like the live tweeting of them, especially the Ninjago panels so follow me on Twitter if you haven’t yet.
