Earlier today, LEGO announced on the LEGO Ambassador Network that they will be removing over 2,000 elements from the Pick-a-Brick service later this month. Some of these element are rather rare and can only be found in a handful of sets and usually Pick-a-Brick is an easier way to get them without going to the secondary market like BrickLink.
Rebrickable has provided a handy list on which parts will be removed from Pick-a-Brick on or before November 17. The parts do qualify for any promotions going on so if you want to make a sizeable order, now would be the best time to do so in case you have something on your list that’s currently on the choppinng block.
Last night, we got a first look at a couple of the new LEGO Jurassic World 2024 sets which included the Baby Dinosaur Rescue Center (76963) and Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull (76964) and we now have official images of the sets. There are now product listings for the the two sets which will be releasing on January 1 and the pricing for them are actually pretty reasonable, mainly for the latter one. As of right now, we only know of two sets and if the Dinosaur Fossils sell well, we could possibly see a whole subtheme for them featuring other dinosaurs.
Young fans aged 4+ can care for and play with dinosaur babies while learning to build with this LEGO® Jurassic World Baby Dinosaur Rescue Center (76963) set. It includes an off-road vehicle and research area with a cave wall, both with Starter Brick elements, plus a feeding station. 2 minifigures, baby Ankylosaurus, Triceratops and Velociraptor figures, and small Velociraptor and adult Pteranodon kids’ dinosaur toy figures get play started fast.
Inspire dinosaur-loving boys and girls or budding paleontologist aged 9 and up with this LEGO® Jurassic World Dinosaur Fossils: T. rex Skull (76964) dinosaur toy for kids. The first Jurassic World set made for display features a skull with an opening jaw, a stand with an information plaque, a hidden ‘amber’ piece at the back of the model and a ‘fossilized’ footprint.
