This buildable LEGO ǀ Marvel heavy-duty truck features a Hulk minifigure with a removable helmet and a Thanos minifigure with a Tesseract and Infinity Gauntlet. The Super Hero truck features a lift-off cab, providing...

It’s hard to believe that one twelfth of 2025 is already in the history books. Most of those New Year resolutions are broken or completely forgotten by now. But here at BrickNerd we won’t forget our continuing resolution to bring you quality, Nerdy LEGO news! Here at BrickNerd, we brought Da Vinci’s ornithopter to life, shared ideas for dealing with builder’s block, and gave some good guidance on how to win an award. We explored the challenge of constrained building with CMF habitats (and what characters should be rebooted for the next CMF) and a completely different challenge of building with elements from LEGO DreamZzz sets without knowing what the original set design was! We looked at the delightfully Nerdy GOATLUG, explored minifugre NPU, and played “what if” by combining Creator 3-in-1 sets. We explored construction techniques for models of the past, watery past and unique challenges building models of the...

Among the many amazing, fantastical things common to LEGO conventions, the Great Ball Contraption is a standout. It is essentially a Rube-Goldberg-esque machine that exists solely to justify its own existence. We’ve written about the Great Ball Contraption (GBC) a few times here, and most recently Ronald wrote a great walkthrough of how to get started building your own module. Ever since my first LEGO convention, I knew I wanted to build a GBC module. When our kids were old enough to attend a convention, they were similarly bitten by the GBC bug. Last year, for Christmas, I told my son that if he worked with me to build a GBC module, I’d pay for the parts to build it and a trip up to Seattle so we could enter it into BrickCon’s 2024 Great Ball Contraption. He was on board so we got to work. Design or Borrow a GBC? First,...

Today’s guest article comes from Lia Chan, a LEGO builder and space nerd who is taking a look at the new LEGO Chinese Festivals sets for the Lunar New Year, which begins today. A New Year Lunar New Year, also known as Chinese New Year, is one of the most beloved and joy-filled holidays in Chinese culture. It’s akin to the American Thanksgiving or Christmas in the sense that it’s a time for families to come together, reflect on the past year, and look forward to the future with hope and good fortune. A significant part of the holiday revolves around food, with family meetings centered around a reunion dinner, which is a symbol of unity and love. This year, however, I found a different way to bond with my mother and celebrate our heritage—by building the LEGO Chinese New Year set 80117 Good Fortune together. This article shares the experience...

Congratulations, fellow LEGO fans—it’s International LEGO Day! (…in Australia! Yes, we are a little early for the rest of the world for a few hours, but we’re emphasizing the international part of the day this year.) On January 28, 1958, LEGO submitted the patent application for the bricks we know today. We’ve already seen all the places in the world where BrickNerd contributors have obtained LEGO, so join us as we celebrate LEGO Day with some of our best stories of shopping for these coveted plastic toys! Just before the “store unboxing” of the flagship store at Leicester Square, London in November 2016 I’ll start us off by telling a couple of stories of my own (I would, wouldn’t I? I like telling stories). I live in Norway where we, for some reason, still don’t have and never have had a LEGO Brand Store. The silver lining, if you could call...
