I texted Dave the other day, wondering if we needed any articles for this month. After he finally remembered who I was, he said, “Sure, I guess?… What do you have in mind?” Of course, I had no clue. But I had been thinking, earlier that day, that it’s been as cold as a Tauntaun’s butt around here for the past couple of weeks, you know, like Hoth cold. Then it hit me: a Tauntaun round-up! Tauntaun Action Figure Tauntaun with bridal and alive expression The Tauntaun, according to Wookieepedia, are a reptomammal native to the planet Hoth, where the Rebel Alliance set up its super secret base to hide from the dreaded Galactic Empire in the movie The Empire Strikes Back. In spite of all the advanced technology, the Rebels preferred to ride these beasts around the icy, snowball of a planet, patrolling for various things… that needed patrolling, I...

It’s been a while since our last LEGO Ideas update and it’s been busy over there as nine more projects have reached the First 2026 Review Stage. There’s been a little bit of everything that fans have voted for. One interesting note is that we have one fan designer that has multiple projects in one round which is pretty rare. We’ve seen designers in different stages but we don’t see much of the same designer with multiple projects in one stage.

A new month is here, which means more competitive building! February may be the shortest month of the year, but it packs a punch—whether you’re building a heartfelt habitat for Valentine’s Day or going for an interplanetary roll with FebRovery.

Be sure to check the LEGO activity calendar for local challenges and events near you.

Jack Stone is a theme known by many but loved by few. It was one of the earliest LEGO themes which introduced specialized elements intended to keep construction simple for very young children, including an oversized figure of the titular character. But the theme has a bad reputation among AFOLs for littering bulk used brick with large and difficult-to-use pieces, often ones that could be constructed similarly with smaller parts. The part we are examining today, Cockpit 6 x 6 x 5 with Hinge (part 30619), is no exception. Its large size and unusual features reveal a surprising amount about the difficulties of injection molding plastic bricks. Elemental History At first glance, it may seem that the cockpit element is rather limiting—something you would throw into a bin of big, bulky parts never to be seen again. It came in five colors and was intended to be combined with several complementary...
