The LEGO Ideas Singles’ Day My, Myself, and I fan vote is now live and you can vote which set you want as a future gift with purchase set. There are 15 finalists and fans have only one vote to pick your favorite one. The premise of the contest was to build something people do by themselves using a maximum of 250 bricks. Too bad LEGO has to choose only one because a lot of them are really good. The deadline to vote is only one week on July 11 so get your voices heard.

The Statue of Liberty is widely recognized not just by Americans but worldwide as a symbol of freedom. A beloved icon, it has amazingly been recreated in at least ten iterations of LEGO sets. Today we are going to look at each and every LEGO Statue of Liberty. We will only be covering versions that are brick-built and have been available for purchase, so that excludes the many versions found in LEGOLAND Minilands, costumes, bag tags, and more. Let’s get started with the biggest version! A Grand Beginning! The first set (3450) was released in 2000 and was massive at 10.5 pounds, nearly 34 inches tall, and constructed from 2,882 parts. The set included 1,654 2 by X (2 x 3, 2 x 8, etc.) bricks. Never before had AFOLs gotten such a tremendous amount of sand green parts in one place This set was unusual with the box produced in...


One of the more anticipated days of the month is here and I’m not talking about Independence Day. The LEGO Icons Eldorado Fortress (10320) is now available for purchase on the LEGO Shop. The set retails for $214.99 and is a tribute for the 1989 set of the same name. Unfortunately, there are no promotions going alongside it and it’ll probably be temporarily sold out by the time the next one comes around.

The San Diego Comic Con 2023 exclusives portal is now live and it doesn’t look like LEGO will have any exclusives for sale this year. We’re still a few weeks away from the event and there’s still time for companies to add themselves to the list since we have until July 16 to submit our entries but so far, it’s not looking promising. There’s a chance that they could do something directly at their booth but that would be a mess and I can already hear the security say “you can’t stand here, keep moving.” The last time that LEGO did any exclusives was back in 2019 before the pandemic closed everything down the year after. Back then, they had a few exclusives that lucky fans were able to purchase as well as minifigures that were given away at random. LEGO did sell their exclusives online in 2020 at various retailers...

The Kerbal Space Program – Modular Ship System by Sam67c is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas.

Now that a whole generation has grown up with LEGO as a part of their childhood, a fun new market has been created for nostalgic sets harking back to old LEGO themes, like Classic Castle, Space, and of course, Pirates. Each of these sets has a unique charm, combining the classic colors and playful concepts of the old themes with modern parts and techniques, and the new 10320 Eldorado Fortress is no exception. As long-time pirate MOCers, my brother Isaiah and I jumped at the chance to “review” this set. Here at BrickNerd, we like getting a bit more creative with the sets that LEGO offers us. Right out of the box, what the Eldorado Fortress screamed to us was story. We’ll get into the specific reasons why this set is so great for storytelling in a moment but first… it’s storytime!

In less than a day, the LEGO Disney 100 Years Celebration (40600) gift with purchase set has sold out on the LEGO Shop here in North America. In fact, it lasted less than 12 hours after it went live 24 hours ago. I’m also hearing that LEGO Stores didn’t get much in stock either so that makes the set rather rare. As a result, the price of the set on the secondary market is starting to slowly reflect that as prices are heading up to $70 on it. It’s not really that surprising since LEGO released two new popular Disney sets that qualified for it including the Disney Hocus Pocus – The Sanderson Sisters’ Cottage (21341) and the Disney Castle (43222) with the former already in backorder status shipping in 60 days. We’re not sure if LEGO has more of the Disney 100 Years Celebration for a future release since they...

Amazon has recently put up the product page for the upcoming LEGO Marvel Visual Dictionary which includes the exclusive Iron Man Armor Model 64 minifigure. The paperback version lists the minifigure is included with but the hardcover version doesn’t show it, however, the images in the middle of the product page seeming shows that the hardcover does have it. If I have to guess, I would say that both will have the minifigure but I cannot guarantee it. I took the chance and ordered the hardcover just to see. The book will be released on September 19 and it is eligible for returns/replacements within 30 days so there’s no harm.
