LEGO has just announced your newest LEGO Ideas set from the First 2024 Review Stage. There were 48 total submissions and the winning design is the Minerals Display by ddf72. Congratulations to the winner but obviously it’s pretty disappointing that only one project out of 48 was chosen. I could’ve seen at least two or three more projects chosen but I guess LEGO didn’t see it that way.

Billund, Denmark: Today, the LEGO Group announced the launch of a new playset based on recently-released video game, LEGO® Horizon Adventures™. This 768-piece set allows LEGO fans to recreate the iconic adventures of Aloy and her loyal ally Varl in physical brick form.
The set sees the duo, armed with their trusty bow and spear capable of producing fire, shock or chill attacks, do battle in jungle surroundings against two fully jointed machines, Shell-Walker and Sawtooth. The Shell-Walker has posable legs and arms, opening claws and a detachable cargo pod and energy shield, while the fully articulated Sawtooth has opening jaws, a swivelling torso and a posable neck, head and legs.
The release of the set follows the launch LEGO® Horizon Adventures™ on 14th November. Co-developed by Guerrilla and Studio Gobo, and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, LEGO® Horizon Adventures™ is a playful and light-hearted story
The LEGO Shop has quietly rolled out a huge quality of life feature for using your Insiders points for discounts. When you’re checking out the cart, there’s a new option to use custom discounts on your orders. Before this change, you had to redeem your discounts in the Rewards Center then use the provided code to get the discount but you can now just directly use it in the shopping cart. It also tells you how many points you have and the value of your points in dollars. The minimum discount is $5 which uses 650 Insiders points and each additional dollar discount is 130 points. Now they just have to add a scrolling bar to change the amounts instead of clicking each dollar and it’ll be perfect.
