Earlier this year, we saw a Republic starfighter that hadn’t been seen in LEGO form for several years hit the market. Now it’s not groundhog day – but on August 1, we are getting another LEGO Star Wars Republic starfighter that hasn’t been seen on shelves since 2008! This time, it’s 75432 V-19 Torrent Starfighter; a craft that appeared early on in the Clone Wars animated series, but was seldom seen subsequently. With 567 pieces, it has an RRP of US $64.99 | CAN $84.99 | UK £59.99; you might see it on third-party retail sites like eBay or Amazon, too. Let’s see if it will receive a torrent of praise! The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for review. Providing TBB with products for review guarantees neither coverage nor positive reviews.

We recently shared a round-up of LEGO castles by master mason Ben Hauger, but we turned around for a minute and not only did he make a few more castles, he changed the foundation. Yes, these two new castles have all the great features of his previous ones, but now, we get a modular base. If the forest setting isn’t to your liking, you get to change it now. The modular segments combine to make a beautifully irregular base for the main structure. Take a look at the different sections of the forest. Maybe this is why the forest looks different every time I take a hike. The post Castles in a modular forest appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Nathan Schroeder

An artificer’s work inscribing runes is no easy task, as recreated in this LEGO still life by greenarj. It requires precision tools, enchanted ink, an ancient tome, and a bottle of mysterious liquid… to steady the hand. Creating a scene this convincing from plastic bricks is another kind of magic, one that grenarj wields like a wizard. That bottle in particular, which integrates Spinjitzu Jay’s cyclone, is brilliant. The blade is filled with NPU, like a silver dish nested between wheel arches for the pommel. Consider us entranced.

In addition to the amazing LEGO models created by builders worldwide, The Brothers Brick brings you the best LEGO news and reviews. This is our weekly Brick Report for the 3rd week of July 2025.TBB NEWS AND REVIEWS This week was a mix of Star Wars, with a return to the prequels featuring Jango Fett’s starship, Architecture, which brought us one of the most iconic real-world castles, Icons, which revealed a charming sea-side village, and the Dark Knight with a Batmobile from perhaps the most over-the-top Batman movie of that era, Batman Forever. For even more news and reviews, be sure to check out last week’s Brick Report, and you can also catch A Brick Dreamer’s weekly recap of LEGO creations on their YouTube channel [REVIEW] LEGO Star Wars 75433 Jango Fett’s Starship: Slave I 2: Electric Boogaloo — How does the latest version of this iconic starship measure up?[REVIEW] LEGO...

Every LEGO model tells a story, sometimes it’s obvious, sometimes it’s mysterious, and sometimes it’s beautiful, like this kingfisher flying out of a deck of cards, holding the gold key of clubs in its beak, built by BigBrickStan for the latest Biocup LEGO building contest. Plant parts supplement the usual wing elements in two shades of blue, and the keys for all four suits are created with minimal parts.

From Software has fully embraced co-op with their latest release, Elden Ring Nightreign, all but requiring players to team up with a couple of friends in order to take down waves of bosses. So it’s only fitting that to bring down some of Elden Ring’s most iconic enemies in LEGO form, a team-up is in order. Joe (jnj_bricks) leads the charge against Godrick the Grafted, the first big mandatory boss in your journey through the Lands Between. Joe perfectly captures the decaying Stormveil Castle, especially the shattered road that subtly undulates off the LEGO grid. While he doesn’t often build characters, Joe nails Godrick’s grafted form with his monstrous arm. I’m having flashbacks to the first (and second, and tenth…) time I battled the boss. Joe’s friend and collaborator Brickelangelo travels beneath Caelid to Mohgwyn Palace for a face off with Mohg, Lord of Blood. Mohg looks imposing atop the brick...

We’re a bit more than halfway through the year so far and we’ve seen some amazing LEGO creations from talented builders around the globe. Normally, we’d highlight a top ten list at the end of the year and we still will. But let’s take the time to scope out what our prospects are thus far based on views and see if they remain at the top of the heap once we celebrate the new year with fireworks, champagne, kazoos and whatnot. In no particular order, here’s what we have so far. Speaking of celebrations, LEGO fenom DeRa has two reasons to celebrate as they’ve hit our list twice. First up is this impressive RX-78-2 Gundam in all it’s primary colored glory. This formidable Gundam blasted onto the scene in January and the year and the LEGO Gundam world hasn’t been the same since. Then lightning strikes again in February when DeRa...

Sometimes a single piece can set the stage for a LEGO build, and in this case, it was a sand-green rooftop element which inspired Duncan Lindbo to create an entire scene around it, and in the same color as well from a winding stair, to a bench and a teapot to provide a relaxing respite from spell-casting.

Over the past four weeks, fifty brave builders joined us for our inaugural role-play competition: Heroes of Fur and Feather. In three challenges, each player created LEGO scenes and lore that advanced the story of their animal hero. There were so many inspiring builds and epic plot twists, but at the end of the journey, one builder consistently won us over with his amazing character, beautifully staged scenes, chilling creature designs, and cozy storytelling. And that builder is Ben Grayson! For completing the quest of winning over our panel of judges, Ben wins a copy of  Blathers’ Museum Collection. Thanks to everyone else who participated. Now, we’re proud to present Ben’s series of builds in full. Priscilla Bramblewhisk, a squirrelling ranger, has always enjoyed an adventure since she was a wee-squirrelling. Whether it was climbing trees, hopping over rocks, or exploring burrows of other creatures within her realm. As she grew...

Firespray-class starships appear to be like proverbial London buses. You wait 20 years for a specific one, and then two turn up within three months of each other! LEGO finally re-visited Jango Fett’s Slave I in style earlier this year, with the mammoth 2,970-piece 75414. But if that set’s $330 price tag is putting you off, good news! From August 1, you’ll be able to pick up 75433 Jango Fett’s Starship for a more modest US $69.99 | CAN $89.99 | UK £59.99 (and you may be able to find it on eBay or Amazon, too). This one’s only got 707 pieces, but it does feature an extra minifigure for a total of three. Read on to see if you should pick up one, both, or neither… The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for review.
