LEGO Ideas 21348 Dungeons & Dragons Rumoured For April 2024

Less than three months into the brand new year of 2024 and we've already had a total of three brand new LEGO Ideas 18+ sets. And in just over a months time on the 1st of April 2024, that number will become four as 21348 Dungeons & Dragons will release. The latest fan-made set will become the most expensive model of the year for the LEGO Ideas theme with 3,745 pieces retailing for $359.99.

In 2022, LEGO and the LEGO Ideas theme announced another collaboration with Hasbro, this time joining forces with its Dungeons & Dragons brand. Master builders could submit their own Dungeons & Dragons-themed brick-built models on the LEGO Ideas platform with one of these designs becoming an actual set.

The contest was announced in October 2022, and it was revealed early last year that Dragon’s Keep: Journey’s End by BoltBuilds emerged as the winner. Since then, the LEGO designers along with BoltBuilds have been hard at working create the latest 18+ licensed set for the LEGO Ideas theme. And now we're just a few weeks away from seeing their final model which will retail for $360.

At that price point of $360, 3,745 pieces are included making it just over 700 more than the original model. That original submission very much played into the game's main selling points as BoltBricks created a brick-built idea that includes various pathways with interchangeable doors to always tell a story with different objectives.

One of the various pathways includes the Witches Tower which features a laboratory, an armoury, a well, and a trapdoor to deter unwanted visitors. Another highly detailed building includes the Tavern. Here, many brick-built stories can begin and end especially as it's located right next to the tower and the dungeon lurking with plenty of mysteries.

Along with the main buildings and scenery of the 18+ model, at least three brick-built creatures are included: an Owl bear, a displacer beast and a beholder. But the biggest creature of them all is the Dragon which is now coloured in red rather than green. It also includes cloth wings which, even though they may be worst in quality, is an attempt to reduce the price of the LEGO Ideas model.

And 21348 Dungeons & Dragons isn't complete without six brand new exclusive Minifigures. These Minifigures are a green Dragonborn bard (recolour of the LEGO VIDIYO dragon head), a rogue, a warrior, a white-haired High-Elven druid, a conjurer with a book and a black-robed warlock who sits right at the top of the tower.
