Since we don’t get the LEGO Store calendars anymore, we don’t actually know what promotions will be going on until a few days before something drops. There are reports of what we could be expecting for March 2022. First is a rumored the Jane Goodall Tribute (40530) set which was first reported online last year. It is said that the promotion will be from March 3-15 with a $120 purchase. The other promo looks to be a double VIP points event from March 12-14. If true, that means both promos will stack during the second weekend of March. Keep in mind, these are unconfirmed promos and have to wait until the LEGO Shop is updated.

LEGO Marvel Spider-Man & Green Goblin Mech Battle (76219) Revealed

February 17, 2022 / / 0 Comments

There are now official images of the new LEGO Marvel Spider-Man & Green Goblin Mech Battle (76219) which is set to be released in April. The set has 296 pieces and retails for $19.99 and it features a slightly updated Green Goblin minifigure. You can pre-order the set today and will ship on April 1.

There’s been a lot of resentment in the community regarding mech builds for the Super Heroes line and I somewhat agree as well. We have to keep in mind that LEGO is first and foremost geared towards kids and I assume LEGO’s market research on mech build are positive with kids and that’s why there’s always at least one per wave. We do, however, have some other cool Marvel sets coming down the line such as Thor’s Hammer (76209) to look forward to.

Marvel just dropped the newest trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness during the first commercial break for the Super Bowl and it’s even more crazy than I expected.

LEGO Transformers Optimus Prime (10302) Rumored for Summer 2022?

February 12, 2022 / / 0 Comments

There’s a new rumor coming out of left field of a possible LEGO Transformers Optimus Prime set coming this summer. Promobricks is reporting that the set will have set number 10302 and will have 1,508 pieces. It is also presumed that Optimus Prime could be based on the upcoming Transformers: Rise of the Beasts movie that is also coming out this year and it will have him with a jetpack and his rifle blaster along with an information plaque.

This is interesting news because Hasbro/KRE-O had the license for Transformers building sets for a long time. If it did expire and LEGO has acquired the license, it’ll be the first time that there will be LEGO Transformers sets. This piece of news is so random that I have a hard time believing it but LEGO has been making surprising moves this year so it’s not totally out of the realm of possibility. I wouldn’t hold my breath and get your hopes up on this rumor until there’s some concrete information.

LEGO today celebrates their 64th LEGO Brick Patent Day which is the day that the LEGO brick was patented in Denmark. It is one of biggest events in LEGO history because without it, we wouldn’t be building anything. Soon after the Danish patent was filed, applications in other countries followed.

LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532) Promotion Live on LEGO Shop

January 27, 2022 / / 0 Comments

The promotion for the new LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532) is now live on the LEGO Shop. You can get it with purchases of $200/£200/200€ from now until February 13, while supplies last. The promo does stack with the Year of the Tiger (40491), at least in other countries until February 6. The tiger is sold out in the US but LEGO Stores might still have them in stock.

As for the Vintage Taxi, it’ll probably last until the end of the promo period since a lot of the newer LEGO exclusives are out of stock including the Boutique Hotel (10297) that goes well with it. Tack on the high price threshold and you’ll have a set that’ll sit around for a while. If you do make a purchase, make sure you use Rakuten to earn some cash back.

LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532) Gift with Purchase Details

January 27, 2022 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has finally released the details for the upcoming LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532) gift with purchase set on the LEGO Shop. The build is based on a classic version of the 1930s Citroën Traction Avant and you can get it from January 28 to February 13 with purchases of $200/£200/200€, while supplies last. The set also includes a taxi driver minifigure along with some accessories as well.

With the price threshold at a pretty high limit and releasing on such short notice, supplies will no doubt last. The taxi does match well with the new Modular Buildings Collection Boutique Hotel (10297) although we’ll see if it comes back in stock since it’s been a very popular set and has been temporarily out of stock for a while.

LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532)

The vintage taxi has a black and yellow color scheme and is based on the 1930s Citroën Traction Avant. It is six-wide and the inside has enough room for the driver and a passenger. There’s nothing more too it and it does goes well in an existing City layout.

LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532)

The LEGO Vintage Taxi (40532) is a nice looking set but the $200 price threshold may be a little high for some. It does pair up well with the new Boutique Hotel (10297) as they both have similar styles and that itself should be enough to get it. Again, you have until February 13 to get your orders in for it.

BrickLink Designer Program Round 3 Preview

Round 3 of the BrickLink Designer Program should be starting some time in 2022 and there are nine projects left in this beginning run of program. These projects initially hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas but were not approved to become an official LEGO Ideas set but they have a second chance at becoming a LEGO set if it is one of the first five projects to reach 3,000 pre-orders in a particular round.

For Round 3, there are nine final projects which you can check out below. There were two projects that were from previous rounds that got pushed back to the final round which may or may not be good since there are a few nice ones that are competing with them for the five spots. Most of the projects are still in the test building stage so there’s still lots of time left to get them ready to be voted on.

Hopefully, LEGO will update the details on the Promotions, Offers, and Events page so fans can start planning their purchases.

LEGO VIDIYO Discontinued at End of January 2022

January 21, 2022 / / 0 Comments

In July 2021, LEGO released a statement on pausing the LEGO VIDIYO theme until further notice and today, LEGO has announced that the theme will indeed be discontinued. The past few months the LEGO VIDIYO team has been testing new ideas for the theme to make it a sustainable business but it turns out that it wouldn’t work. LEGO will be discontinuing the theme on January 31 but the app will still be supported for another two years. You can read the official statement below.

In July 2021 we decided to pause the LEGO VIDIYO roll-out to review performance and test new ideas. Through the extensive quantitative and qualitative research we have undertaken in the previous months, we have gained an enormous amount of learnings in terms of the music & content creation space and what it would take to succeed with the play experience, our go-to-market strategy in 2023 and not least how to build a sustainable business based on the VIDIYO experience.

Based on these insights we have decided to discontinue the physical VIDIYO products from January 31st 2022 but will continue to support the app experience for another two years to serve those consumers who have bought the products.

We still see great potential in pursuing music as a passion point and we will take learnings from LEGO VIDIYO as we continue to explore future fluid play experiences.

The Brick Fan Celebrates 10 Year Anniversary

January 18, 2022 / / 0 Comments

I didn’t think that I would get to this point but The Brick Fan celebrates ten years of being on the Internet. A decade ago, the domain was registered and I still remember where I was when I registered it. Longtime readers may remember that the site went by another name but due to a trademark violation of the original site name, I had to change it and I think it stuck pretty well, don’t you think?

The Brick Fan was born a few months after my return from the “Dark Ages” and I wanted to document LEGO sets that I bought back then. My first set that I got was the LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon (7965) which I still have built to this day. It went from me just taking pictures of various sets as a general hobby to going full time on it and reporting on LEGO news is what catapulted to what it is today.

Of course, it wouldn’t be here if there wasn’t for the readers who continue to support the site. I remember trying to get my name out there and to get 50 pageviews a day was an accomplishment to me. Then came 100 pageviews a day, then 1,000. After a year and a half, we finally got to 10,000 a day. Early last year, we managed to hit 100 million total views which is still a staggering number that I never thought it could reach.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) Available at Walmart – January 2022

January 14, 2022 / / 0 Comments

For those who missed the Zavvi offer the other day, Walmart is also selling the LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) as a standalone set. It is also retailing for $9.99 and it is still currently a gift with purchase promo over on the LEGO Shop where you have to spend $85 to get it.

I thought the Zavvi pre-order was just a fluke as a brand new GWP set isn’t supposed to be sold separately, especially since it just got released, but if Walmart is also selling them, does this mean that we can just buy upcoming GWPs in the future? We’ll see next month when that promo goes live, whenever that is. Thanks to Gordon for the heads up.

Nuremberg Toy Fair 2022 Officially Cancelled

January 14, 2022 / / 0 Comments

A few days ago, the Toy Association announced that the 2022 New York Toy Fair was officially cancelled and it looks like the Germans are following suit as the 2022 Nuremberg Toy Fair has also been cancelled. The event was set to take place next month but due to the ongoing COVID pandemic and exhibitors withdrawing, the organizers has decided to move the event to an online platform. At this point, I won’t be surprised if the London Toy Fair was cancelled too but they stated last week that the event will go on as intended. It doesn’t really matter since London is a closed event and photography and sharing details is prohibited.

Cancellation of the physical Spielwarenmesse 2022

The toy industry has been looking forward to the world’s leading event for the sector at the beginning of February. The rapid growth of the Omicron variant in recent days, however, and the resultant increasing number of cancellations to stands, has left the organiser, Spielwarenmesse eG, with no alternative – with a heavy heart it has to cancel Spielwarenmesse 2022 in Nuremberg. As an alternative, exhibitors, specialist retailers and media representatives can meet up on the Spielwarenmesse Digital platform.

“We have fought hard to be able to hold the live event and we received strong support initially from toy markets worldwide,” says Christian Ulrich, Spokesperson of the Executive Board at Spielwarenmesse eG. A large number of suppliers without international distribution networks appealed to the organisers even in December to continue with the fair, which is so important

StoneWars is reporting that an online ship has listed a range of sets (75571-75574) codenamed “Coconut” that will be releasing in October that suggests that the theme will make its return after 13 years. LEGO does codenames for various themes which includes “Banana” for Minions and “Leaf” for Super Mario and the coconut may be referencing the ones found in the LEGO Indiana Jones 2 video game. As always, these are purely rumors until LEGO announces them or images show up at an online shop.

LEGO Digital Designer Shutting Down – BrickLink Studio Becomes Official 3D Building App

January 12, 2022 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that LEGO Digital Designer will be shut down on January 31 and LEGO BrickLink Studio will become the official 3D building app. LDD was released way back in 2004 and it was the main app used for digitial building and rendering. You can still download LDD until the end of the month but it won’t be updated or supported. After that, you can no longer download it.

In 2014, BrickLink created the BrickLink Studio and the program supported a number of other programs such as LDD and LDraw but it has since became one of the main focal points for BrickLink in the digital rendering space.

LEGO® BrickLink Studio to replace LEGO Digital Designer as the LEGO Group’s official 3D building app

The LEGO Digital Designer website will shut down at the end of January. BrickLink Studio welcomes LEGO Digital Designer users.

Billund, Denmark – January 12th, 2022: Today, the LEGO Group announces that BrickLink Studio will replace LEGO Digital Designer as the official virtual LEGO building software going forward.

LEGO Pick a Brick Merging with Bricks & Pieces

January 12, 2022 / / 0 Comments

In the wee hours this morning, LEGO announced some big changes coming to the LEGO Pick a Brick program as well as Brick & Pieces. Both programs will now be merged to a single platform so consumers can browse single elements in a centralized hub. Furthermore, shipping times in the US and Canada will now be faster as there will be a new fulfillment are in the US warehouse which will drop shipping times from 13-18 business days down to 5. Lastly, there will be a new thing called Build a mini which allows you to create your own minifigures. Unfortunately, it is stated that the trial will only be in Europe and Asia.

Background

Our current Pick a Brick and Bricks & Pieces setup means that consumers aren’t aware of the two different experiences. During 2021 we’ve been running tests and meeting with different consumer groups to better understand the current consumer experience.

Based on these learnings our next step will be to create a new merged experience on LEGO.com. We’ll merge Bricks and Pieces and Pick a Brick into one front-end experience where consumers can browse our portfolio of elements in one place more easily.

Additionally, we’ll improve the shipping time in the US and Canada by implementing a new fulfilment area in our US warehouse. This will reduce shipping time for our top 1,600 elements from 13-18 working days to up to 5 working days. There will likely be some shipping delays for a short time after we launch this experience.

New York Toy Fair 2022 Officially Cancelled

January 11, 2022 / / 0 Comments

In a statement that released today, the Toy Association has announced that the 2022 New York Toy Fair has been officially cancelled. The event was originally set to take place in February 19-22 but due to uncertain times during the pandemic, the best choice was to cancel the event. As we know, the NYTF has been one of the main events that LEGO usually uses to reveal summer sets but it looks like they’ll have to find another way to show them off.

New York, NY | January 11, 2022 – The Toy Association, producer of Toy Fair New York, the largest toy, play, and youth entertainment marketplace in the Western Hemisphere, has announced the cancellation of Toy Fair New York, originally set to take place, February 19 to 22, 2022 at the Javits Center in New York City.

“Key to our efforts these past two weeks has been the balance of some 700 remaining committed toy manufacturers saying they need and want Toy Fair 2022 to build their businesses, weighing that against those departing and seriously on the fence, and needing to provide a sufficient quantity and quality across the retail buying community necessary to deliver a positive experience,” said Steve Pasierb, President & CEO of The Toy Association. “As that balance has shifted, we are obligated to make the best decision in everyone’s interest no matter how heartbreaking for so many and potentially damaging some business’ future prospects. The wide range of other events that occur across New York City during Toy Fair week

LEGO Marvel 2022 Mechs Relisted for April 1 Release

LEGO has relisted the three LEGO Marvel 2022 mech sets on the LEGO Shop with a new release date of April 1. Last month, another fan media revealed an email communication with those who got review sets that there was some stability issues with them and the official launch date of January 1 would not be happening. Perhaps, LEGO has fixed the issues and the sets are ready to go but the images look the same as before. I’ve reached out for additional details but as of right now, the three mechs will be greenlighted for April 1.

LEGO Overwatch 2 Titan (76980) Release Delayed

January 11, 2022 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that they are pausing the release of the upcoming LEGO Overwatch 2 Titan (76980) to review their partnership with Activision Blizzard. The set was set to be released on February 1 which was one of my more anticipated sets so far this year but there has been a lot of feedback in the community regarding the allegations in the workplace at Activision Blizzard and why the set is still be released. LEGO will share an update for their plans on the partnership when they reach a decision on if and how Activision addresses their employees’ concerns.

We are currently reviewing our partnership with Activision Blizzard, given concerns about the progress being made to address continuing allegations regarding workplace culture, especially the treatment of female colleagues and creating a diverse and inclusive environment. While we complete the review, we will pause the release of a LEGO Overwatch 2 product which was due to go on sale on February 1, 2022.

LEGO VIP Collectible Coins Available Again January 11

January 9, 2022 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that they will be bringing back the LEGO VIP Collectible Coins for those who missed it the first time around. For a limited time, while supplies last, you can get the coins in the LEGO Rewards Center starting on January 11. The times that they will be available are as listed below:

• In Australian and New Zealand: midnight Sydney time
• In Japan: midnight local time
• In Korea: midnight local time
• Europe: 11am CET/10am GMT
• United States and Canada: 9am EST

This second opportunity will only be available to VIP members who didn’t get any of the particular coins or coin holder which allow more people to get them. LEGO did state that if demand is low, they may open it up for VIPs to get a second coin. The coins originally cost 1,150 VIP points while the coin holder cost 700. I’m assuming they will be the same price as I see no reason why LEGO would change it.

LEGO® VIP collectible coins are back!

We’re making our LEGO® VIP collectible coins and coin holder available again on January 11, 2022 in our VIP Rewards Centre. Each coin (as well as the coin holder) is only available to VIP members who didn’t get any coins or weren’t able to complete their set last year. We expect supplies to run out quickly.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491)

The LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) promotion is now live on the LEGO Shop and you can get it for free with purchases of $85 or more, while supplies last. Coming in at 193 pieces, it continues the line of the Chinese New Year zodiac animals which started with these particular style and is the 8th one in the line if you don’t count the Year of the Snake (10250) which was a different style.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491)

Similar to previous years, the box uses the front flap design and when you open it up, you also get an envelope to gift to another person if you like.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491)

As for the tiger build itself, it is mostly static with the articulation only coming from the ears and the tail. This year’s build is a little bit more boring than other years but the cute, cartoony style is still there. You also get a small display stand that it can sit on.

Overall the LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) is a fun little set that I looked forward to getting to add to my zodiac animal collection. For 2023, it’ll be the Year of the Rat so I’ll be looking forward to that. This promotion will run until January 27.

LEGO Confirms Store Calendar Cancellation

January 5, 2022 / / 0 Comments

A few days ago, we first reported that the LEGO Store Calendars may have been cancelled and today, LEGO has confirmed it. Although the calendars are gone, LEGO has assured us on the LAN that the gift with purchase promotions will be continuing and will be added to https://www.lego.com/en-us/stores on a regular basis. LEGO is looking to further featuring that particular page to also promote actual in-store events when the time is right.

What I’m getting from it is that LEGO will be announcing future GWPs and other promotions on the page above, hopefully a few weeks before they actually start so people can still plan their purchases around it. They sort of did that with the current LEGO City Kid’s Playground (30588) promo that is still going on until January 9. I believe that was revealed a few days before it started but there should still be a little more time. I guess we’ll just have to keep checking https://www.lego.com/en-us/stores daily to see what updates there are on it.

The Brick Fan 2021 Recap

January 4, 2022 / / 0 Comments

It’s been a few days since the new year has rolled over and I’ve finally had time to do a recap on what happened last year on The Brick Fan. As usual, we take a looks at some of the stats and how they compare to previous years.

We’ve continued to grind it out last year and as a result, we ended the year with 31,523,189 page views which is a 22.2% increase from 2020. The unique visits went up 37.9% while first-time visitors increased by 33%. One little highlight is that we’ve crossed the 100 million page view mark early last year which is kind of mind blowing to me.

There was a total of 1,095 posts for 2021 which was the most that we’ve done in a single year. The highest traffic day was July 6 with 178,139 views which was a day after the LEGO Ideas Seinfeld (21328) was revealed. Apparently, the post got viral on the Google Chrome Suggestions so that helped a bunch with the views.

Our social media accounts have steadily increased but we do need some work on Instagram as it barely gained any followers. The numbers below are what we ended the year with.

Facebook: 20,106 likes/23,250 followers (7.68% increase)
Twitter: 11,962 followers (10.5% increase)
Instagram: 16634 followers (1.3% increase)
Reddit: 1572 readers (192.2% increase)

2021 was actually a busy and fairly stressful year for me on the site and personally and I’m surprised that it gained as much traction as it did. All the work was 99% … Continue

LEGO BrickHeadz Stranger Things and Looney Tunes Sets Revealed

January 3, 2022 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Building Instructions page has revealed two new LEGO BrickHeadz set with the Stranger Things Demogorgon & Eleven (40549) and Looney Tunes Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote (40559). There’s no information about them but they will most likely be priced at $19.99 or even $24.99 since they’re licensed sets. Since there are images of them on the building instructions portal, they might be available in a month or two.

The two sets have been rumomred since last year following the release of the Looney Tunes Collectible Minifigures (71030) and the recent retirement of The Upside Down (75810). Both sets are very recognizable as to what they are and they look to be nice additions to the BrickHeadz theme.

LEGO Store Calendars Cancelled for 2022?

January 3, 2022 / / 0 Comments

I’m not sure how true this is but it looks like the LEGO Store Calendars that we’ve all been used to have been cancelled for 2022. In an image that has been floating around online, it states that due to market planning and in conjunction with world events, it has become difficult to develop engaging calendar content within a certain timeline and the December 2021 calendar was the last one. As of this post, there is no store calendars listed on the LEGO Shop which usually goes up a week before the new month.

If this message is true, it’ll be extremely difficult to know what gift-with-purchase items LEGO will have for each month and in turn, makes it harder for consumers to manage their purchases as they don’t know what will be going on. I assume that a lot of people plan their purchases around the GWPs and with the calendar gone, it will most likely encourage more impulse purchases.

The Vespa was rumored last year to be a set so it looks like this one could be it.

LEGO Brand Store (40528) Set Revealed

December 31, 2021 / / 0 Comments

In the past day, there have been reviews that have surfaced of a brand new LEGO Store (40528) set. It looks like the consensus is that you can get it for free starting next year with purchases of $125 when new LEGO stores are opened.

The store includes details that you can find in a real LEGO store such as the Pick-a-Brick wall, various stickered sets, the wooden duck, and what looks to be the Tree of Discovery which is seen in the New York flagship store.

It’s a decent niche set but a majority of you will probably never get it if it for store grand openings. You can usually check the LEGO store calendar to see which stores will be opening and hopefully there’s one that will be opening near you.

It’s about a day and a half left until the new year rolls around and that means there will be brand new LEGO sets available for purchase on the LEGO Shop. That unfortunately also means that older sets will be rotated out as they will be retired. There will still be some time to purchase them but note that once they are listed as sold out/retired, they won’t be available again, at least on the LEGO Shop. If the listing says temporarily out of stock, there might still be some on the way but it won’t be that many. You can probably still find them at other retailers as well as on the secondary market. LEGO has overhauled their Retiring Soon soon page and there’s nothing listed but the list below is what is presumed to be the sets that will be gone soon.

BrickLink Designer Program Sheriff’s Safe (910016) Design Issue

December 29, 2021 / / 0 Comments

For those who purchased the BrickLink Designer Program Sheriff’s Safe (910016), there is a design issue with the set that you need to be aware of. The fan designer has noted that LEGO/BrickLink has decided to change one of the required Technic pins which makes the locking mechanism not work on the set which is a major problem since that’s the point of a safe, to lock things up.

Included in the set are 10x 32002 1 1/2 M CONNECTING BUSH but you actually need 4274 CONNECTOR PEG W. KNOB. If you’ve built any LEGO set that has pins, you most likely will have some spare pieces laying around but you may want to contact LEGO Customer Service and explain what happened to get them replaced. I haven’t received my set yet but hopefully it is fixed before it ships out.

IMPORTANT – SHERIFF’s SAFE OWNERS PLEASE READ There’s a small but fatal mistake in the building instructions, that makes the lock NOT work. See the attached image for instructions on how to fix this! It’s caused by 10x Technic 3/4 pins (32002) in the lock mechanism. These were suppose to be Technic 1/2 pins (4274), but for some reason Bricklink has replaced them. I will contact Bricklink and urge them to correct this mistake. To be continued…

LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331) Officially Announced

December 28, 2021 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has officially revealed the next LEGO Ideas set to be released with the Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331). Releasing on January 1, the set has 1,125 pieces and will retail for $69.99/£59.99/€69.99/119.9 AUD/89.99 CAD.

The original idea by Viv Grannell was supposed to be based on Sonic Mania’s version of the Green Hill Zone but instead we’re getting the original Sonic version of the stage. The main difference here is the original project had the Death Egg Robot which is the mech but instead, the set includes the Egg Wrecker. I’m not sure why the change as fans voted for Sonic Mania and not the Sonic 1 but I guess Sonic Mania isn’t as well known as the original.

Note that the set includes some pins on the side so you can get multiples of the set and add on to it to create a large Green Hill Zone. Also, the Sonic minifigure has been slightly updated from 2016.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) Official Images

December 27, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Last month, we got our first look at the upcoming LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) set which came from LEGO’s Declaration of Conformity and there are now official images of the set. The set has 193 pieces but we don’t know when it will be released at this time. It will most likely be available in January like with previous years. The price threshold to get it would be about $80 or $88 which is the normal from previous years. The number 8 is a very lucky number in Chinese culture so it will most likely be one of the two prices which should be confirmed when the January store calendar is released.

For those who purchased or didn’t purchase the sets from Round 1 of the BrickLink Designer Program, the building instructions for them are now live.

LEGO Gaming Horizon Zero Dawn Tallneck (76989) Product Listing Found

December 22, 2021 / / 0 Comments

There been talk of a new LEGO Gaming subtheme that is said to be coming out in 2022 and it looks like a set for the them has been revealed at a German toy retailer. The listing suggests that we could be seeing a set from Horizon Zero Dawn which is the Tallneck (76989). It is listed as a 18+ set so we’ll most likely see the newer style of boxes and it is priced at €79.99. The set has been rumored before and it was reported to have 1,222 pieces. If you’re not familiar with the Tallneck from Horizon Zero Dawn, they are machine creatures that Aloy tracks down to progress in the game.

It’s interesting that LEGO chose Horizon Zero Dawn as one of the games for the LEGO Games theme since it’s been over four years since the game released with the sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, set to be released in February 2022 and the Tallneck to be released in May 2022.

Marvel Studios’ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness Trailer

December 22, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Marvel has just released the trailer for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and we finally get to see what is going to be happening in the movie. There’s a lot to take in but Doctor Strange seeks help from Scarlet Witch after the events of Wandavision and asks about the Multiverse. If you watched the What If…? animated series, it also somehow ties into one of the episodes there as well.

We also get to see a glimpse of Gargantos which is in the upcoming LEGO Marvel set, and Gargantos Showdown (76205). There should be more trailers for the movie before the May 6 release date but I’m pretty excited for it so far. Our review of the Gargantos Showdown is should be up in the next day or so so keep an eye out for that.

LEGO Survey Gauges Interest on New Subscription Programs

December 22, 2021 / / 0 Comments

LEGO Subscription

LEGO has kicked off a new survey in the Rewards Center to measure the interest of some new LEGO subscription programs. Under the “Get More Points” tab, the survey gives you 150 VIP points for completing and it asks you about two different subscription plans. Both plans will cost $4.99 per month and they will both include the following:

• Free delivery on your LEGO purchases
• Early access to products, experiences and content (video, audio, building instructions & games)
• Access to limited edition products
• Purchase from back catalogue (get sets from previous years, etc.)
• Return used bricks and receive discounts/points to use elsewhere with TLG
• Free gifts with every purchase

Other than that, both plans have slightly different features. The first plan allows you to track your collection digitially using a LEGO wallet while also having your other LEGO experiences in one place. The second plan focuses more on the learning aspect of LEGO where you have workshops and courses from LEGO experts.

Obviously, this is still in the early stages and does not mean that LEGO will actually be doing a subscription service. Personally, I chose the first plan as those features are geared towards me more. If you have younger kids, maybe the other plan with the learning features are more suited for you. Again, you can get 150 VIP points for completing the survey but you have until January 7 to do so.

LEGO Releases LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) Tips & Tricks Video

December 18, 2021 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has released another video regarding the LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) and this time is a building tips and tricks video of the set. LEGO designer Henrik Andersen is mainly a response to reports of design flaws of the set.

If you remember, Brickset brought up the issue that some of the Technic pins were hard to take out. The video shows you how to remove those Technic pins in certain areas in the AT-AT including the ones in the underbelly as well as in the legs and Henrik makes it look easy. If you have the set, you can try to see if the “tricks” work for you.

Surprisingly, the AT-AT is still in stock on the LEGO Shop and if you order by December 20, you can get it by Christmas using Express Saver delivery.

The LEGO Overwatch theme was introduced back in 2018 and the theme finally makes its return in 2022 with a new set revealed as Titan (76980). The set is actually based on Overwatch 2 which I expected and it features Tracer and Mei who finally has a LEGO minifigure. The Titan is one of the main Omnics in Overwatch 2 which was featured in the announcement cinematic.

There’s no mentioning on a release date for the set but the game has been delayed indefinitely although the Overwatch League will be using an early version of the game when the season starts.

If you’re a long-time reader of the site, you’ll know that I’m a huge Overwatch fan even to this day. I still play it when I have some free time and I’m still waiting for that Lucio minifigure.

LEGO Responds to UCS AT-AT (75313) Design Flaw

December 10, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Last week, Brickset brought up some design flaws with with the new LEGO Star Wars AT-AT (75313) where it can’t be easily taken apart. Of course, this goes against LEGO’s ethos that every set can be taken apart and rebuilt.

The post garnered enough attention from other media that LEGO has released a statement about it. One of these outlets was Vice who LEGO gave the response to and not Brickset which boggles my mind as to why they didnt’ give it to a fellow fan media. The statement is as follows:

All LEGO sets are designed to be rebuildable, including the LEGO Star Wars AT-AT.

“This set is a complex build intended for those aged 18+ and uses Technic pieces to secure elements of the set. Once assembled, these pieces can sometimes be more difficult to take apart, but it is still possible. In the case of the elements that attach the upper body to the lower part of the set, builders should tap to the side of the Technic rod until it starts to stick out and then remove it using the LEGO tool which is provided with the set. Alternatively, you can ease the model onto its side and the rods will come out.

“Regarding the pieces used to construct the legs; once assembled the Technic rods can be removed by pushing the rod from one end and securing the end of it with your fingernail. Then push back the cross-axle extender and keep repeating this movement until enough of the end protrudes

BrickLink Designer Program Round 1 Official Images

November 30, 2021 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO Building Instructions app has posted official images of the Round 1 BrickLink Designer Program projects. The images show off the box art for the sets as well as some product images for them. The sets are scheduled to be shipped around December 2021 or January 2022 and that’s probably why there are some higher quality images for them.

There’s an update on the shipping times for the sets, depending on when you ordered them.

We will ship the first round of pre-orders in early December, including all Castle in the Forest pre-orders. If you ordered in the second (August) wave, your order may ship as late as June 2022.

Due to the global shipping situation, some shipments to the US, Australia, and New Zealand will be delayed as late as February 2022. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

New LEGO Reindeer Drives Fans to Frenzy

November 30, 2021 / / 0 Comments

One of the most talked about things yesterday was the December 2021 LEGO Store Calendar but it wasn’t because of the promotion but for something in the header photo. The image features a brand new LEGO reindeer that is sort of a pastel white color. The most asked question is how to get it and unfortunately, I have no idea.

LEGO has been known to showing off teasers in their marketing such as designer videos, store calendars, and even the LEGO Life magazines. They have also shown off new things in the past that haven’t ever been released before which have disappointed fans at the same time. Perhaps it will be included in an unannounced LEGO Seasonal set that comes out some time in December. At this point, I wouldn’t get your hopes up too much for this white reindeer as it could just be a marketing ploy for people to look at the very dull month of promotions.

LEGO Marvel Eternals Rise of the Domo (76156) Review

November 28, 2021 / / 0 Comments

In my last review of the LEGO Marvel Eternals sets, we check out the largest set in the wave with Rise of the Domo (76156). It has 1,040 pieces and retail for $89.99. Since the movie has been out for a few weeks now, there may be some spoilers.

LEGO Marvel Eternals Rise of the Domo (76156)

Minifigures

The set has six minifigures which are Phastos, Makkari, Druig, Sersi, Thena, and Ikaris. Phastos has on the purple outfit with some intricate patterns on both sides of the torso and legs. His double-sided head shows him with a stern look on one side and an angry expression on the other.

Makkari has the red and gray outfit with similar printing as the other Eternals. She has a smirk on one side and a questioning expression on the other.

Sersi has on the green outfit that pops more than the other Eternals. What I mean is that the green looks really good with the designs. Her double-sided head shows her with a smile on one side and a stern look on the other.

LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) Designer Video

November 28, 2021 / / 0 Comments

I’m not sure why LEGO likes to do this but they have released the designer video for the LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) after it has sold out. LEGO designer Henrik Andersen talks about the details that go into this massive set. There are also Easter eggs in the set but they are a secret for fans to find out when they build it.

LEGO has already announced that the LEGO Shop won’t have stock until after the holidays. If you have a LEGO Brand Store or even LEGOLAND Discover Centers around you, you may want to check to see if they still have some left. I’ve had reports that there are some stores that still has inventory.

LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) Sold Out Until After Holidays

November 27, 2021 / / 0 Comments

In less than a day here in the US, the LEGO Star Wars UCS AT-AT (75313) sold out and that also essentially kills the promotion for Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483). It wasn’t surprising that the set would be that popular as it generated a lot of buzz when it was first announced earlier this month and it did go up a few minutes early before midnight on Friday. As a result of AT-AT selling out, the price on it has jumped 1.5x on the secondary market. LEGO Customer Service has posted a message saying that there won’t be anymore stock until after the holiday season.

The 75313 Star Wars™ AT-AT™ is currently out of stock and we don’t expect to get more until after the holidays. We’re sorry about this disturbance in the Force.

You can always use the “Notify When in Stock” feature on the AT-AT product page to let LEGO email you when it goes back up. Your best bet is to use the “Check Store Stock” to see if there are any LEGO Stores near you that has it but I’m betting that pretty much every store is out of stock as well.

LEGO Year of the Tiger (40491) First Look

November 26, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Every year around Chinese New Year, LEGO likes to do a promotional set for the Chinese Zodiac animals and the Year of the Tiger (40491) has been revealed on LEGO’s Declaration of Conformity. This will be the 8th animal from the series which started all the way back in 2015 with the Year of the Sheep (40148). If you want to be technical, the Year of the Snake (10250) was released back in 2013 but it was a different style than these ones. Also, the first couple of sets were Asia exclusives so it was a bit harder to get than in recent years. The Year of the Tiger (40491) will most likely be part of a promotion in late January or some time in February.

Today the LEGO Foundation has announced that they will be donating 7.1 million Danish Kroner (960,000 Euros) to the German Red Cross in efforts to help support reconstruction of schools and building a family aid center. This is LEGO’s ongoing humanitarian contributions to help crises around the world.

The LEGO Group and the LEGO Foundation announce a 960k EUR grant to support children and families affected by the disastrous flooding in Germany

Billund, November 23rd, 2021: People in flood-affected areas in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, are still struggling with rebuilding their lives three months after the flooding. “The water is gone, but the need for relief efforts and aid continues unabated,” says Karen Pascha-Gladyshev, Managing Director of LEGO GmbH, referring to the flood disaster in July, which destroyed several German villages entirely.

The LEGO Group and the LEGO Foundation have now announced a donation of 7.1 million Danish Kroner (DKK) (960,000 Euros) granted to the German Red Cross (DRK) for the reconstruction of ten kindergartens and the build-up of a family aid center. “We care for the well-being of children around the world and hope that this contribution will help children and families locally in the affected areas of North-Rhine Westphalia,” says Pascha-Gladyshev.

“The initial aid supplied right after the flood was important, in the truest sense of the word, essential for survival,” explains Axel Fielen, chairman of the DRK District Chapter of Aachen e.V. “Now it is

Today is the opening day of Ghostbusters: Afterlife and if you didn’t know LEGO has a new version of the Ecto-1 for the movie. It was actually released last year in anticipation of the movie being out in July 2020 but it got delayed a few times.

Target has released a sneak peek at what we can expect from the upcoming LEGO Collection x Target this December.

The collection ranges from pet items, houseware, gift bags, bedding, clothing, decorative pillows, carry bags, and even the widely popular Astronaut Minifigure plushies. These plushies come in pink, blue, red, and white. If you watched The LEGO Movie 2, you would know that most of them were in Benny’s Space Squad (70841) and they were Benny (blue), Lenny (pink), and Jenny (white). The plushes will retail for $14.99 each. Other plushies include the Gingerbread Man and Santa which also sells for the same price.

Spider-Man: No Way Home Official Trailer

November 16, 2021 / / 0 Comments

The official trailer for Spider-Man: No Way Home just dropped and there were some nice surprises if you don’t follow the movie leaks. They’ve finally shown off most of the Sinister Six which includes Doctor Octopus, Electro, and Sandman as well as the Green Goblin and the Lizard. Unfortunately, Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield doesn’t make an appearance but there was the Amazing Spider-Man 2 reference where MJ is falling. Perhaps this is where Garfield comes in to save her but they’ve just saving that for the movie itself.

Anyways, there is one LEGO set that will be based on the movie which is the Spider-Man at the Sanctum Workshop (76185). Currently is on backorder status but it will ship in 60 days. If you haven’t picked it up yet, I suggest doing so before the movie comes out on December 17 or else it might be hard to after after that due to fans wanting some merchandise for No Way Home. We also get a quick glimpse at the black and gold suit which is also in LEGO minifigure form in Spider-Man’s Drone Duel (76195).

New LEGO Star Wars 2022 Revealed on LEGO Shop

November 16, 2021 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has revealed two new LEGO Star Wars sets on the LEGO Shop. If you’re a Star Wars fan, you may have noticed that the Battle Packs took a short hiatus this year but they will be back in 2022. The other set is the Hoth AT-ST (75322) which was very briefly seen in The Empire Strikes Back which makes me question why LEGO produced this one since it was only on screen for two seconds.

Snowtrooper Battle Pack (75320) – $19.99/105 pieces

Let young fans build their own army and recreate Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back action with the Snowtrooper Battle Pack (75320). It features 4 LEGO® minifigures with assorted blaster weapons, a buildable Imperial Hoth speeder bike, stud-shooting E-Web heavy repeating blaster and snow trench with extra ammunition. This building toy makes an awesome little gift or reward for creative kids aged 6 and up, to boost their collection of Snowtroopers and add new play possibilities to their other LEGO Star Wars™ sets.

Hoth AT-ST (75322) – $49.99/586 pieces

Youngsters can recreate dramatic Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back action with the first-ever LEGO® brick-built model of the AT-ST from the Battle of Hoth (75322). It has an opening hatch and roof for access to the minifigure cockpit, a wheel-operated rotating head, 2 spring-loaded shooters and posable legs. A cool gift for trend-setting kids aged 9 and up, this building toy also features 3 LEGO Star Wars™ minifigures, including Chewbacca with snow decoration, plus an Imperial Probe Droid LEGO figure, to inspire creative

LEGO Back to the Future DeLorean New Rumors for 2022

November 14, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Earlier this year, there was a rumor of the LEGO Creator Back to the Future DeLorean that was supposed to be released in the fall but that eventually turned out to be the LEGO Pickup Truck (10290). There are now new rumors from Promobricks that will instead be coming in April 2022. Reported to cost 169.99€, the DeLorean will have set number 10300 and will be exclusive to LEGO until July where it’ll be available elsewhere.

Furthermore, the details for the DeLorean include it being able to change from the original look from the first movie to the hover conversion design from 2015 with the folding wheels. Of course, you’ll also have the other iconic details of the DeLorean such as the OUTATIME license plate and the flux capacitor. Marty’s Mattel hoverboard is also said to be included. We’ll see if minifigures of Marty and Doc Brown are included but it’ll be a shame if they aren’t.

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

LEGO Designer Mike Psiaki talks about some of the details on one of the most famous ships in history. Also joining in the video is Southampton SeaCity Museum’s Andrew Skinner who goes into more depth about the ship.

Currently, the set is temporarily out of stock but you may have some luck in stores although it’s not very likely. From what I’ve been hearing, LEGO has completely sold out of it for now and there’s no word on when it will be restocking. It is now selling at 35%-40% above retail price on the secondary market.

LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483) Confirmed as GWP for UCS AT-AT (75313)

November 10, 2021 / / 0 Comments

LEGO has confirmed that the LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker’s Lightsaber (40483) will be a gift-with-purchase set when you buy the UCS AT-AT (75313).

9th November 2021: Today, the LEGO Group announces the new epic LEGO® Star Wars™ AT-AT™ set – the latest launch in the Ultimate Collector Series set (UCS) line-up and a must-have for fans of LEGO and Star Wars.

The AT-AT(All Terrain Armored Transport) first appeared in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, its huge presence appearing over the horizon on the icy fields during the Battle of Hoth, ready to attack the Rebel Alliance’s shield generator. Nothing like it had ever been seen before, and the Galactic Empire’s ground forces used the AT-AT’s gigantic size to overpower the Rebellion and ultimately destroy Echo Base.

This immense new LEGO model is massive in size and detail, paying homage to the gigantic vehicles in the film. It features6,785 pieces, a movable head, spinning guns, adjustable legs, and side panels that open to reveal amazingly detailed interiors.

In addition, the set comes with nine minifigures and accessories, including Luke Skywalker (along with a wire so fans can recreate the famous scene of him swinging from an AT-AT’s underside in an attempt to thwart their attack), General Veers,two AT-AT drivers, a Snowtrooper Commander and four Snowtrooper minifigures, as well as two speeder bikes and an

BrickLink Designer Program Brickwest Studios Moved to Round 3

November 2, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Round 2 of the BrickLink Designer Program is set to begin crowdfunding in exactly a week but there has been a change to a project that you could’ve supported. Brickwest Studios was set to be part of the round 2 lineup but due to the tragedy on the Rust movie set a few weeks ago, BrickLink has decided to move it to Round 3 instead out of respect to everyone affected. Taking its place is Venetian Houses which will be selling for $289.99/€244.99. You can read BrickLink’s official statement below.

As you might have heard, there has been a recent tragic incident on the movie set of Rust. Due to this tragedy, we have decided to move Brick West Studios to Round 3 and move Venetian Houses in to Round 2 to take its place.

We are doing this out of respect for people affected by the recent tragedy on the movie set of Rust. We didn’t want to draw any unintended and inappropriate association between the fan design and the tragedy at this difficult time.

Venetian Houses will sell for USD 289.99/ EUR 244,99.

We communicated this to the fan designers affected by this last week. I want to say a warm thank you to them for their understanding!

LEGO Marvel Eternals In Arishem’s Shadow (76155)

Minifigures

There are four minifigures in this set, Ajak, Kingo, Ikaris, and Sersi. Ajak has on a blue outfit with some metallic gold robe printing going down the torso into the legs. She has a double-sided head with a smile on one side and an angry expression on the other. Her accessory is sort of a naginata.

Kingo has on a purple outfit with the circular designs that all the other Eternals have. He also has a double-sided head with a smile on one side and a questioning expression on the other. His accessories include a pair of trans-orange Power Blasts.

Ikaris has been seen before in the Eternals’ Aerial Assault (76145) and the design of his outfit is exactly the same as in the other set. Again, I do like the striking metallic gold details against the blue on both sides of the torso and legs. His double-sided head shows him with a smile on one side and an angry expression on the other.

At 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26), children called for action on climate change. The LEGO Group asks world leaders to consider children’s view on climate change. LEGO has created some Building Instructions for a Better World (031102021) for policy makers to remind leaders to place children at the forefront of discussions. These instructions are what kids think should happen if we are to face climate crisis and create a more sustainable future.

Children call for action on climate change at COP26

The LEGO Group urges world leaders to take note of children’s views on addressing climate change; provides a voice for 6,000 young people across the globe.

At COP26 (UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties), key sustainability influencers and decision makers will come together in Glasgow to accelerate action towards the goals of the Paris Agreement and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.

LEGO Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (10299) Rumored for 2022

October 23, 2021 / / 0 Comments

It looks like we could be seeing another LEGO football stadium coming in 2022 with the home of Real Madrid, Estadio Santiago Bernabéu (10299). It is said to be priced at $349.99 and will come with a gift-with-purchase set 40541. It looks like a new stadium set will be an annual thing since the Old Trafford – Manchester United (10272) was released back in 2020 and Camp Nou – FC Barcelona (10284) last month.

Currently Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is under renovation that is expected to be completed in 2022 which will have the completed look shown above. It is unsure if LEGO will be using the new stadium look or the original look at this time. LEGO does their production planning years in advance so it’s possible that they’ve had details of the new look to create this set.

LEGO Releases Statement Regarding Faulty LEGO City Stuntz Bikes

Ever since the release of the new LEGO City Stuntz line earlier this month, there have been reports of the bikes breaking during regular play. There have been enough quality issues to the point where LEGO Brand Stores have pulled them from the shelves a few weeks back.

Some consumers in the Americas region have experienced breakage with a wheel element when playing with the LEGO® City Stuntz motorbike. This is a product quality issue and does not pose a safety risk.

The fault is only present on LEGO City Stuntz sets on sale in the Americas and does not affect any similar sets available elsewhere.

LEGO Ninjago – Fate of Cole’s Character Announced

October 19, 2021 / / 0 Comments

Last year, the voice actor for LEGO Ninjago’s Cole, Kirby Morrow, passed away suddenly and the LEGO Ninjago team had to figure out what to do with the character. They had four options on what to with Cole and they have given a reasoning on why they did it.

1. Retire Cole as a character.
2: Use existing dialogue from all available Ninjago content since 2011 to keep Kirby’s performance in the show.
3: Come up with a story reason that Cole wouldn’t speak.
4: Recast.

Ultimately, the team went with a recast of the character with Andrew Francis. He has previously done work on Ninjago for other characters such as Shade, Beta Jay 137, and Morro. You will be able to hear Andrew as Cole in a series of short films in early 2022.

Dear Ninjago fans

It’s about time we talk about this:

When Kirby was first cast as Cole, it was a matter of finding a voice that fit the character which was written by the Hageman brothers. It wasn’t a hard choice to make as Kirby hit everything, we wanted right out of the gate … maybe he had some guidance from voice director Michael Donovan, and if so, well done Michael!

But what we received to base our casting decision on was just perfect. From then on it became a matter of writing a character that fit the voice. Any animation which has been done on Cole since then has been based on Kirby’s performance. He became instrumental to the development
