There’s some big news coming out of Promobricks regarding the new LEGO VIDIYO theme and it potentially being already cancelled. They are reporting that the third wave is no longer being shipped to retailers and orders for them are being cancelled.

It’s not really a big surprise but there have been reports of the sets being heavily discounted around the world, even after the first wave which suggest the sets weren’t selling well.

There were some cool sets in the second wave and the minifigures were pretty unique but the apprehension of using the app is one of the deal breakers for people to buy the sets. Of course, these are just rumors until it is actually confirmed.

Update: LEGO has released a statement about the future of the theme.

This morning, LEGO announced the new summer 2021 wave of LEGO VIDIYO sets and in the press kit, they also provided some prototype and development images of the sets and the minifigures. There’s no text that goes along with the images but you can make out which prototypes go with the final product and how much changed in between. My favorite one is probably the Punk Pirate Ship.

When you

In the middle of February, LEGO offered the LEGO VIDIYO Welcome Pack for those who are subscribed to the newsletter, while supplies lasted. I got mine in a few days ago and everything that was in it included 2 Backstage Pass lanyards, 2 sticker sheet sets, 2 shoelace charm packs, a welcome letter, and free access to the VIP Virtual Pass.

The lanyards features the Party Llama head on the front and a lenticular print of it shaking the maracas. Another lanyard added to my large collection of lanyards.

The sticker sheets feature each of characters from the BeatBox sets along with some larger BeatBits.

The shoelace charms also show a few of the BeatBits. You get two sets of them, one for each shoe.

The access card gives you free access to the Virtual Pass which unlocks the six digital asset packs and one entry to win L.L.A.M.A’s signed roller skates.

The LEGO VIDIYO Welcome Pack is just something fun to get kids into the theme. I’m not sure how many were available but I would think it was a decent amount because they ran out of stock in about 8 hours. People have been getting their orders the past few days and they ship out from Germany. If you didn’t get yours yet, keep an eye out for it.
