The LEGO Masters panel happened a few days ago and yesterday they dropped the official trailer for season 4. Will Arnett is back as host and Jamie Berard and Amy Corbett will again be the judges. In addition to winning $100,000 and the title of LEGO Masters, for the first time ever, the winning build will become an official LEGO set. Hopefully, the set is a smaller rendition of the winning build because we all know that the final challenge is an over-the-top one and would probably be the most pricey set ever. I will recap the LEGO Masters panel from San Diego Comic Con 2023 in the next few days after I recover a bit.

New Hashima takeover week concludes with an article by BrickNerd’s own Ted Andes who has compiled personal stories from participants in and around the epic 2023 Brickworld cybercity display. The NEW HASHIMA DAEMONS at Brickworld Chicago 2023 BrickNerd has made a recent habit of reposting my article about the legend of the White Brick on the final day of Brickworld Chicago. It is on that Sunday (Father’s Day in the US) when any new White Brick recipients will have discovered them at their displays in the early morning hours and are then eager to learn more about their significance. This year was no exception, and how they were given out once again points to their true purpose; recognizing those who have made that year’s Brickworld experience special. More importantly, they are a reminder that the convention experience is more than about competing for awards. This was all too clear as four...

At the LEGO Ninjago talent signing today at San Diego Comic Con 2023, Doc Wyatt on his social media showed off an exclusive LEGO Ninjago polybag that was given out to fans. The polybag features Baby Riyu (6484261) with glowing eyes which is different from the ones in the regular sets. So far, none have surfaced yet on the secondary market but do expect it to be a bit pricey when it does. There’s also a small chance that this is just a pre-release figure and will be in sets in the future like with the Bard from The Hobbit many years back.

New Hashima takeover week on BrickNerd continues with an article by guest contributor Meredith Najewicz who will be examining the rare and unusual colors found throughout the massive cyberpunk collaboration. Moths To A Flame (aka Translucent Orange) When people are drawn to a LEGO creation, there can be varying reasons as to what attracts them, whether it is the size, scale or content of the build. For myself, I have been having a long love affair with builds that incorporate color, especially rare or underused LEGO colors. When I saw Stefan Formento’s New Hashima build in its first iteration at BrickFair Alabama in the early winter of 2020, I was mesmerized. It felt like the build was a beacon of color sitting on the floor of a concrete convention hall. Sadly a few weeks later, the world went into lockdown with COVID, and nearly all conventions were canceled. When Brickfair returned to...

Today’s New Hashima takeover article comes from Brickworld Master Casey McCoy (Flickr/Insta) who takes us on a musical journey from the one-song soundtrack of his first display to the epic night and day playlist designed for the massive cyber-city collaboration. Prologue: The Mistakes of My Youth I was a budding young TFOL embarking on an ambitious collaboration with my best friend for Brickworld 2013 - Hershel’s Farmhouse from The Walking Dead Season 2. Somewhere along our many build sessions set to Ed Sheeran’s LEGO House, the idea was hatched to play The Walking Dead’s title theme alongside our homestead projecting from the inside out. It seemed logical enough, set the tone for our build, and grabbed our audience's attention. Only one problem in hindsight: we only looped a 1-minute and 40-second song. Herschel’s Farmhouse We left that title song on repeat for nearly four days straight. Our kind, GBC-troubleshooting, neighboring AFOLs...
