A new LEGO Collectible Minifigures set is coming January with the Animals Series 28 (71051). There are 12 characters to collect and will retail for $4.99 each. We’ve had costumed characters before but this Animal series is the first one to focus completely on them. Like with the last few series of Collectible Minifigures, they are packaged in blind boxes. They still the scannable codes on the bottom of the boxes to identify them using various minifigure identifier apps. We received the gravity boxes for review which has the full set of 12. Peacock The peacock has a blue and turquoise color scheme with some yellow beak and legs. The arms are replaced with wings and there’s a large piece for the plumage which has some metallic printing on it. This is the same for the peacock hat as well. His double-sided head shows him with smiles on both sides. The...

This landscape is an homage to my grandmother, as I’ve always seen her surrounded by nature, living in a house between two mountains with a large garden and forests. As you can imagine, this moc has a special place in my heart. The idea for this moc came, as usual, from wandering on Pinterest to seek inspiration. Pinterest is packed with fantastic arts of all kinds, making it really easy to gather inspiration, even if AI art is spreading there like crazy nowadays. One day, I came across a series of pixelated microscale landscapes such as valleys with villages, hills and fields that caught my attention. At first I thought it was yet another AI image, but I was informed it came from a human  – Franek pixel art. The person behind it even made a game, so beautiful. Every time I hike or just wander in mountains, plains, or forests,...

Scrolling through the creations of Thorben (tee_baum_bricks) is like a glimpse into a nerdy LEGO fan’s fever dreams. It’s a place where Saturday morning cartoons and eldritch horror meet over a slice of pizza. This year, Thorben has created a series of mechs and super soldiers based on family-friendly game and cartoon characters. This SpongeBob mech first grabbed my attention (with those sick clawed arms). In Thorben’s world, the absorbent power of sponges aid pirates in their undersea invasion. Poor SpongeBob, trapped inside this infernal machine. Meanwhile, in the Mushroom Kingdom T.O.A.D.E.T.T.E. in AI-enhanced power armor leads the charge. Thorben credits Brickbot Studio for the power armor frame fundamentals. In Thorben’s Bluey world, canine space marines battle in the name of the God Dog Emperor. Tom Nook is notoriously eager to force loans on people that they have to pay back through cozy servitude. It’s only natural that the mech extension...

When is a starship not a starship? Why, when it’s part of the LEGO Star Wars Starship Collection, of course. This line of statues has given us plenty of microscale versions of larger ships from the galaxy far, far away. So far, they have all been true to the sub-theme’s name; but coming out next January 1 is 75440 AT-AT – decidedly not a starship! No matter, though. It should still make for a nice little model. Pre-orders are open now with an asking price US $64.99 | CAN $84.99 | UK £54.99; third-party sellers like Amazon or eBay might also have it available after general release. At 525 pieces, it’s one of the smallest versions of this walker LEGO has ever released as a stand-alone set. But size, as Yoda tells us, matters not… LEGO Star Wars 75440 AT-AT | 525 Pieces | Available January 1, 2026; Pre-orders open now...
