Earlier today before the page got taken down, The Entertainer posted a product page for the upcoming LEGO Star Wars Boarding the Tantive IV (75387). The set features the first scene from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope where the Galactic Empire invades the Tantive IV and has a similar build style as the Dark Trooper Attack (75324) for the Mandalorian. It includes minifigures of Darth Vader, two Stormtroopers, Captain Antilles, and two Rebel Fleet Troopers. This year, LEGO is celebrating the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars so they’ll be including exclusive minifigures similar to Harry Potter and Ninjago and this set will also include ARC Trooper Fives from Clone Wars. There’s no mentioning of the release date so I’m guessing it’ll be with the March releases. Update: Clearer images can be found here along with a 25th anniversary R2-D2.

Best of BrickNerd — Article originally published January 26, 2023. Welcome back beautiful people, it’s time for another LEGO technique spotlight! The last time I did a waterfall technique spotlight I believe I promised you all a look at rockwork. It´s been a bit of a wait (sorry, I blame LEGO Masters…) but the time has finally come. So let´s have a look at some beautiful and creative ways to build… well… rocks. (And cliffs I guess, but that didn´t really have the same punchline-feel to it!) Below I´ve gathered some different types of techniques you can use when building rockwork with LEGO. Because let´s be honest, a lot of things look a lot cooler when they are standing on a big cliff. Slippery Slopes Let´s start off with the basics: slopes. Slopes come in a variety of angles and colours and are the most common way to build rockwork. There...

Welcome back to our tenth LEGO Quick Build! For this one, we are going all-in on superheroes. I like to browse different artworks for inspiration, and I have a few artists to whom I often come back. One of them is Derek Laufman. He has a comic style that I really enjoy and his Chibi characters inspired this build. I built four superheroes in this style, but Batman turned out the cutest with his little gargoyle friend, so I made instructions for it (not unlike this Batman polybag, but cuter!). Of course, you can build any character you like using the same technique (or build a bigger Iron Man with a similar pose).

I've used a 4x4 round plate, but you can switch it with a regular 4x4 plate, or even something...
