Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Kwanzaa from everyone here at The Brick Fan. Depending on how you look at it, this year has gone by very fast or pretty slow but we’re almost at the finishing line for the year.

Thank you to everyone who visits the site every day and I hope you got what you wanted this year. Take some time today to relax with friends and family and build some LEGO and stay safe.

It looks like the rumors of us getting a LEGO Bluey theme seems to be coming true as there is some concrete evidence that has surfaced. In an official post on their Facebook page, the caption shows “A Christmas fit for the Heelers! Hope your tree is full of surprises… 👀🎁” and if you look closely at the pictures, you can see what appears to be the Long Dog Easter Egg built with LEGO. If that’s not enough evidence that we could be seeing LEGO Bluey sets, I don’t know what is.

Bluey has been fairly popular, particularly in LEGO Ideas as there have been a few projects that have reached the 10,000 supporter goal but ultimately did not pass the the review stages. We’ll just have to wait and see if LEGO will actually make any sets.

Coming back again with the LEGO 2025 rumors, one that really stands out that was just reported about from different sources is that we could be getting LEGO One Piece sets. There will be five sets released next summer and will be based on the Netflix series. This rumor is way out there in left field and I’m highly skeptical of it but I’ll be overjoyed if it is true and no doubt that the Going Merry ship will be one of the sets and will feature many of the pirates.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the site and 5 years as part of The LEGO Group, they will be replacing the underlying infrastructure to improve site speed, responsiveness, security, and stability to improve user experience on the site.
