LEGO Technic Powered Up Components to be Sold Individually

May 29, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

LEGO has announced that you will be able to buy certain LEGO Powered Up components that were found in various Technic sets separately starting on June 1. This allows builders to further enhance their builds without having to invest in a whole set just to get the parts.

A message from Gaute Munch, Director Product Technology (Product owner of Powered UP)

For the past two years we have been in dialog with Ambassadors here on the LAN about Powered Up. The feedback that you have shared has been greatly appreciated. It has been insightful but also pleasure to work and brainstorm with different AFOLs around the world on Powered Up. If you are a member of a Recognized Community, thank you.

Today, we are excited to share the news below with you. We are even more excited to know what your plans are? Are there existing sets you are already excited to modify? Are these going straight into your MOCs? It is almost time for show-and-tell!

Great News on Powered Up Components!

Until now our LEGO® Technic™ Powered Up components have only been available to buy as part of the sets and we know that some of you have been interested in having the electronic components available to be sold separately.

Powered Up components are the hubs, motors, lights, sensors and control handsets that can help builders bring their LEGO models to life. The components can be used to add motorized movement and light features to models, and control them through the Powered UP App.

LEGO Ideas Music Building Contest Winners Announced

May 25, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A few months ago, LEGO ran a music building contest over on LEGO Ideas in which builders have a chance for their build to become an official set. The winners of the fan vote were announced earlier today and the top vote getter was Daft Punk Concert with LEGO Night Mode by RobotRock. However, the top nine voted projects are currently going through a product review for a chance to become an official set(s). Stay tuned for the results of that when a decision is made on it.

On a side note, we’re not sure if this building contest has any connection with the partnership between LEGO and Universal Music Group which has products coming out in 2021.
