In October last year, LEGO announced a contest celebrating 50 years of Dungeons & Dragons. Although I am a fan of board games like Dixit, Mysterium, Gloom, Exploding Kittens and many more, I have never had the chance to play D&D. Of course, I've heard about it mostly from TV shows and people online, and I wanted to do something for that contest myself. Building Character First, I opened Google and searched for Dungeons & Dragons. I read the Wikipedia article on it and discovered that there is something called classes—character classes, to be exact—which got my attention. After that, I started searching for art based on those classes and characters; this is how the initial idea of building characters was born. The whole search took me about an hour, but one can easily get lost in the vast universe of amazing heroes and mighty monsters. I made an initial list...

Season 4 doesn’t begin for another two weeks but FOX has announced that LEGO Masters has already been renewed for Season 5. It looks like Will Arnett is also back to host the show as well.

In one of the more interesting collaborations in recent times, LEGO looks to be having an upcoming partnership with Lofi Girl very soon. Formerly known as ChilledCow, Lofi Girl is a YouTube channel that provides livestreams of lo-fi hip hop music and usually has the iconic girl in the green sweater studying or relaxing. In the video clip shown on their social media channels, the girl is just studying and suddenly her pen turns into building bricks. While looking at her hands, they also turn into minifigure hands and more bricks fall out. Seemingly confused, the screen turns black with a date of September 19. If it’s really a LEGO collab, we’ll see what happens next Tuesday.

Picture this: You are from Canada and are on the last night of a cross-country road trip where you just spent several weeks attending LEGO Conventions and sightseeing across the United States. You are alone, your car is jam-packed full of your custom LEGO models, your best clothes, travel stuff, and the results of multiple shopping trips. You stop at a hotel for the night, exhausted after a long day of driving. You know there is no way you can unload the car alone into the hotel. Some MOCs are just too heavy… View fullsize View fullsize You think to yourself, “Well, it’s 10:30 pm and I’ll be up early to get on the road again. I will park as close to the hotel as possible, under the hotel security camera, by the front door… that’s the second safest thing you could do. Plus, the hotel will monitor the parking lot,...

Whether you call them Tokens of Appreciation, Fan Trophies, Trophy Tokens or some other variation of the name, these small LEGO-related items have become well-established at many of the major AFOL events across North America. Although often attributed to the late Arthur Gugick at Brickworld in 2012, there is some evidence of AFOLs leaving tokens as early as 2007 and 2008. The actual tokens vary greatly but can be mini-MOCs, printed tiles, stickers, cards or some other small item given to an AFOL or placed near their display to recognise that you really liked their MOC or some part of their build. This year, Tokens of Appreciation were introduced to the Brixpo LEGO Fan Event in Adelaide, South Australia. The Australian version of the Tokens of Appreciation first appeared at Brickvention 2023 in Melbourne. Aspen Arnold surprised a small number of builders by placing a token near their MOCs. As the...

LEGO builders should venture out of their comfort zones more. Often this will result in a neat surprise, just like this keep built by Taylor. You wouldn’t expect this to be built by someone who usually builds space MOCs—especially not on this scale. The name he chose for this keep is one that suits it very well, it’s truly a jewel! The different heights of towers and walls make it imposing, and the level of detail is pleasing to look at. For example, those Nexo Knights shields used for the crenelations are used perfectly. The walls have a good texture to avoid the so-called “grey wall syndrome.” And the use of several green tones makes it truly deserve the name “Emerald.” Of course, I was curious how this keep came to be, and Taylor was kind enough to answer questions I had about the MOC.
