LEGO Ideas The Mountain Windmill Achieves 10,000 Supporters

May 11, 2020 / / 0 Comments

The Mountain Windmill by Hanwasyellowfirst is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The build seems to be an original idea but it has a very The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild feel to it considering it is the same builder that has the BotW Stables project currently in review. It has 2,031 pieces and also includes two minifigures, the miller and village boy. This is the first project to reach the Second 2020 Review Stage.

The Brick Fan at RLFM Days 2020

May 10, 2020 / / 0 Comments

The 2020 Recognized LEGO Fan Media Days is coming up at the end of the month and we here at The Brick Fan are lucky enough to be attending this event. Unfortunately due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, flying to Denmark is out of the question so LEGO will be holding online sessions for it. This is a new thing and there were limited spots for who we can interview and yesterday we got our choices. The themes that we are able to interview are:

• Minifigures (I assume this is for the Collectible Minifigures)
• Confidential New Product (Monkie Kid)
• Element Design
• LEGO Ideas

We’ll be asking the LEGO Designers from those themes and you guys also have an opportunity to ask questions as well. Keep in mind LEGO won’t answer any questions about future products. Leave your questions below or on any of our social media posts and we’ll pick out some of the best questions and send them along.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Release Date Reportedly to be October 20

May 9, 2020 / / 0 Comments

Earlier this week, TT Games and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment revealed a new key art for LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. A few days after, Star Wars released a this week’s recap video and they also talked about the game. According to Reddit, they had to reupload the video due to them reportedly revealing the release date of the game on accident. The new video doesn’t show the date to be October 20 which has been clipped out but many fans noticed it.

In a recent interview, Lucasfilm Games managing producer Craig Derrick says there will be about 500 Star Wars characters in the game with a lot of them being playable ones. There’s not much more details about the game that were revealed in terms of gameplay. I’m guessing the details are being held off until video game announcement season later this summer. As we know by now, E3 has been cancelled as well as San Diego Comic Con so any new gameplay hopefully will be shown online at their discretion since we know absolutely nothing about it even after a year after being announced and if the game is to be released in October, we’ll most likely see more of it by then.

Is LEGO Overwatch Theme Cancelled?

May 9, 2020 / / 0 Comments

For those who know me, I’m a huge fan of Overwatch and have been collecting many things from the line including the LEGO Overwatch sets. It’s a pretty niche theme but there were some cool parts and minifigures that have come out of it. The sets did release when the hype for the game died down substantially but there were still many dedicated players and fans.

Since the game was released, there were 21 original characters available to play and by the time the sets were released in January 2019, there were 29 total characters. Out of those 29, we only had minifigures of 15 of them, 16 if you count Bastion, however we were still missing some popular characters like Lucio and Mei. In fact, we didn’t get six minifigures from the original characters (Lucio, Mei, Torbjorn, Zenyatta, Symmetra, and Zarya).

Fast forward to summer 2019 when there were rumors of another wave that set to release some time in 2020. Brickset has sets 76978-76983 in their database since July 2019 but those are just placeholders. I’ve been talking to friends and reading online and most have been saying that we may not see another wave of LEGO Overwatch sets and the theme may have been cancelled outright. However, I want to note that Overwatch 2 was to be released this year but was delayed and those placeholder sets could have been tied to the sequel. Whatever the case is, LEGO won’t speak on such matters so we don’t exactly know what is going on … Continue

LEGO Announces LEGO House Masterpiece Gallery Interviews

May 8, 2020 / / 0 Comments

The LEGO House in Denmark is still closed as the country has still not opened up but LEGO is looking to focus more on the virtual environment as they have launched recently launched a new YouTube channel for the LEGO House. They have also started a new series for the Masterpiece Gallery in which they interview builders who have their work displayed at the LEGO House.

The long awaited statement from the Danish Prime Minister on Thursday did unfortunately not change the situation for LEGO House. We still hope that we’ll be able to open before the summer holidays but nothing is for certain yet. Therefore LEGO House is still closed until further notice.

Instead we have decided to bring some of the LEGO House atmosphere home to our friends around the world. For weeks we have been creating “LEGO House @Home content” for our social media channels with tips and building tricks for family co-building at home.

Now we are adding a new layer specifically for adult fans.

As you know the Masterpiece Gallery is dedicated to exhibit LEGO masterpieces built by AFOLs from around the world. We have initiated making virtual interviews with all the builders to let them introduce their models and the thinking behind them.

The idea is to regularly upload new interviews at the LEGO House Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtyUPWUSp6I3bLgr3BQqL0w

The first interview went live today – here you get a peak behind the scenes of the amazing microscale LEGO city built by Caroline, also known as @Caz Mockett.
