LEGO has just released a teaser on social media with something that has “a whole new dimension of play.” The announcement will be some time tomorrow, January 5. In the short clip, there are some minifigure hands and quotes from kids that says “it sounds like it’s actually talking.” The final clip shows some kind of coiling going on. Note that LEGO will be a CES 2026 (Consumer Electronics Show) for the first time so it’ll be something big and innovative and brand new for LEGO. What do you guys think it is?

Today’s guest article comes from ThrawnsRevenge who has built more than 150 MOCs available on Rebrickable. He shares some of the things he’s learned about mastering the platform, from sharing designs to protecting them. Finding Rebrickable The world of LEGO is constantly changing every year, both within the LEGO community itself and in the online sphere surrounding our favorite plastic bricks. Every year, we get a flurry of new parts and ways to catalog them. On top of that, we always see new programs or websites to catalog parts, blog about our experiences with LEGO, and find ways to upload our models online to share. One of these websites is called Rebrickable, a site used by many LEGO fans to share their models both for free or even for sale.  Rebrickable was started by Nathan Thom in 2011 and it has flourished as a platform since then. The website allows you...

BrickNerd sent contributor Casey McCoy 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House and 40891 Stranger Things: WSQK Radio Station to write about. Sets provided by The LEGO Group guarantee neither positive nor negative coverage. Opinions are those expressed by the author. Strange Times How does one broach the cultural monolith that is Stranger Things? As we try to culturally sunset this beloved 1980s homage with the release of the fifth and final season of the streaming hit, it’s hard to capture just how our society has shifted “upside down” in the last ten years by sending all 80s nostalgia bait into maximum overdrive With a decade of cultural upheaval under its belt (I was in my early college years when Season One released!), anthropologists, sociologists, and a crack team of marketers will be analyzing just how all-powerful the Stranger Things franchise has been in an effort to replicate its success. And it’s...

In less than 24 hours after the release, the new LEGO Stranger Things: The Creel House (11370) and the corresponding WSQK Radio Station (40891) gift with purchase set has sold out on the LEGO Shop. No doubt the series finale of Stranger Things helped out with the sales. I’m also hearing that LEGO Stores were overwhelmed with shoppers for it along with the 2026 sets with the Creel House also selling out in stores. You can try to use the notify by email button on the product page or just follow our updates to see when it’ll go back in stock. The LEGO Shop still has three GWP promotions going on with the main one being the LEGO Icons Vintage Parade Car (40913) which can be had with a $200 general purchase until January 11. You can also double up with the LEGO Year of the Horse (40779) with a purchase...

It’s a new year and that means we can now do a recap of what when on for The Brick Fan in 2025. It’s always fun to look back and see what happened during the year compared to previous years. There were a total of 928 posts last year with July being the month with the most news with 105 posts. Of those posts we had 19,010,766 page views and that was a 26.5% decrease in views from 2024. Although the views are down, it doesn’t really tell the whole story because the engagement through social media have increased significantly. The most popular day on the site was May 2 with 244,621 views which was the day that the summer 2025 LEGO sets were revealed for a majority of the themes. As a result, May was also our most popular month of the year. Again like with 2024, our review numbers...
