Two hobbies will collide as LEGO has officially announced that we will finally be getting LEGO Pokemon sets coming in 2026. In the teaser, we see LEGO Pikachu’s tail with a bolt of lightning with the caption “Get ready to electrify your imagination in 2026”. As we know, The Pokemon Company license has been with Mattel and under the Mega Construx brand for a while now but it looks like it will be with LEGO starting next year. It is a multi-year deal with The Pokemon Company International so we should be seeing a lot of sets in the near future.

When you look at this cute corner shop with a cherry tree in full blossom by JakobKaiserMOCs the attention to detail stands out, from the scattering of pink flower elements as fallen blossoms to the balcony on the second floor with a small bird perched on the railing. I think my favorite detail is the roof pattern, made using baseplates from the Dungeons and Dragons collectible minifigure series. Jakob built this model live on camera, which you can go back and watch to learn about the techniques or find zen.

It’s Friday, which means it’s time for another roundup of notable MOCs and must-see stories from the LEGO community courtesy of our friend ABrickDreamer. This week’s biggest trend is thinking small – amazing microscale builds connected to the Marchitecture competition, and the first rounds of the Rogue Olympics with its strict 101 piece count. Also featured are some fabulous brick-built food, BrickLink Designer Program series 7 analysis, and a deep dive into the tricky new suspension mount element in the latest wave of F1 cars.

Sometimes the inception of an original creation comes from a single LEGO part, whether by looking at it in a new way or, as doubtless was the case for this Lord of the Rings tribute by builder Stefan Johansson, by making the absolute most of an apparently natural application. Stefan sets the bar sky high (and crosses fantasy franchises) with this use of the Thunderbird head element from Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, fleshing it out into a perfectly proportioned Great Eagle of Tolkien’s Middle-earth. The texture achieved by combining a wide variety of tiles across the wingspan really elevates this creation (beautiful plumage, innit?) and the restrained lighting both hides the model’s single transparent support and captures the mood of one of the film’s memorable scenes where Frodo and Sam hail a lift home after an epic guys’ night out. (What happens in Mordor stays in Mordor, am...

The LEGO Ideas line has been churning out sets at a record pace! There are lots of fun models coming down the pipeline. However, speed is not the focus of the latest edition to the collection. Quite the contrary, we’re headed for a relaxing, serene paddle downstream. The LEGO Ideas 21356 River Steamboat arrives on the scene as the largest Ideas set ever produced, coming in at 4090 parts. Based on the winning submission by fan designer Aaron Hall, and made a reality by LEGO designer Marina Stampoli, this model is quite the sight to behold. But does it sink or float (metaphorically – it’s definitely too heavy to actually float)? Join us on a voyage of discovery as we take a closer look! It will be available to LEGO Insiders April 7th and everyone else April 10th, retailing for US $329.99 | CAN $429.99 | UK £289.99. The LEGO Group...
