The year 2025 marks 10 years since the launch of the LEGO Speed Champions theme back in 2015, and already, the theme has had a few busy couple of months, but the rest of the year is going to be just as action-packed. After 10 LEGO Formula 1-branded Speed Champions sets were released earlier this month, the unlicensed theme is returning to Movie-themed cars with its one and only set releasing on the 1st of June 2025. In particular, after today's official reveal, the theme is releasing its third set based on the Fast & Furious franchise of 77241 2 Fast 2 Furious Honda S2000. The 9+ model will retail for $26.99 / €26.99 / £22.99 with a total of 300 pieces included, making it the most expensive yet also the smallest in terms of piece count amongst the three Fast & Furious Speed Champions models. The set itself is obviously based on Suki's Honda S2000, which appears in the 2003 film 2 Fast 2 Furious. The most unique part of the vehicle is its colour scheme, which is entirely pink, making it the first model based on this colour to appear in the LEGO Speed Champions theme. A new windshield element is included in 77241 along with many stickers with further details and prints along the side and on the hood of the Honda S2000. Like most LEGO Speed Champions eight-stud wide vehicles, the car has enough room for two Minifigures. Only one is unfortunately included in 77241, but this is an exclusive version of Suki herself to pair alongside Dominic Toretto and Brian O’Conner, who appeared in their respective sets of 76912 Fast & Furious 1970 Dodge Charger R/T and 76917 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34). 77241 2 Fast 2 Furious Honda S2000 Set Name - 2 Fast 2 Furious Honda S2000 Set Number - 77241 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 300 Price - $26.99 / €26.99 / £22.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 77241 2 Fast 2 Furious Honda S2000 releases on the 1st of June 2025, but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 77241 in a few months time? Are you happy to be getting another exclusive Fast & Furious LEGO Minifigure? What other LEGO Fast & Furious sets would you like to see in the future? Should the LEGO Speed Champions theme do more movie-based sets? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.

After LEGO officially unveiled this year's main Lord of the Rings set of 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire earlier today, the 18+ models corresponding Gift With Purchase has now also been presented. The brand-new exclusive promotional item will be available with the launch of 10354 on the 2nd of April 2025 and lasting just a few days until the 8th of April 2025 or while stocks last. The LEGO Icons branded GWP of 40761 The Lord of the Rings: Sméagol & Déagol includes a total of 181 pieces, valued at around $25, even though it will only be available with purchases of The Shire. 40761 adds two more exclusive Minfigures to the ever-expanding Lord of the Rings lineup of Sméagol and Déagol. The two cousins include exclusive facial prints with alternative expressions along with duel-moulded short legs. Away from the two Minifigures, the build itself is a small diorama scene depicting the two hobbits fishing in the River Anduin in their boat. The 18+ model is a two-story construction with the top including a small island and tree along with the River Anduin itself and a small fishing boat for Déagol. Meanwhile, the lower part of the build is much darker in colour scheme and is the location where Sméagol discovers the One Ring, which is included in the promotional set. 40761 The Lord of the Rings: Sméagol & Déagol Set Name - The Lord of the Rings: Sméagol & Déagol Set Number - 40761 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 181 Price - GWP of 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire Release Date - 2nd - 8th April 2025 40761 The Lord of the Rings: Sméagol & Déagol releases on the 2nd of April 2025 but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire and this upcoming GWP next week? What other LOTR-themed LEGO sets would you like to see in the future? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.

After much wait and anticipation, the next LEGO Lord of the Rings D2C has been officially presented, and its release is coming in just over a week. This is the previously leaked 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire, which releases on the 2nd of April 2025, along with a brand new LOTR Gift With Purchase of 40761 The Lord of the Rings: Sméagol and Déagol. 10354 becomes our third LEGO Lord of the Rings Icons model in as many years, recreating Bilbo and Frodo Baggins' iconic Hobbit lair. Compared to the other two LEGO Icons LOTR models, 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire is a lot smaller and much cheaper, including a total of 2,017 pieces retailing for $269.99 / €269.99 / £229.99. With over 2,000 pieces included, it is no surprise that 10354 is an extremely detailed and beautiful brick-built version of The Shire. The Hobbit cave Bag End is the main build of the Shire, featuring the iconic round green door framed by some wooden details. These wooden details continue around several different-sized round windows, allowing light into the well-known Hobbit Hole. A well-tended garden flourishes just outside the numerous windows and large round green door. We can see a range of colourful flowers and plants, including some vibrant sunflowers and a thick oak tree sitting atop of Bag End. A narrow, brick-built winding path lined with a white picket fence leads up to the door and a selection of colourful vegetation. The house itself is built seamlessly into the hill, with its grassy roof blending into the surrounding green landscape. The interior of 10354 becomes less detailed and more play-heavy. Unfortunately, there is no back wall to the 18+ model, with the back part measuring only around 10 studs wide. With that said, however, the interior is fairly open, with plenty of play features included, such as the ability to transform a burning letter into The One Ring™ or make Bilbo vanish at the turn of a dial. Once you walk through the brick-built round door, the Minifigures included with 10354 will be immediately welcomed to a warm, inviting and impeccably cosy cave. The walls and ceilings are mainly curved to reflect the natural contours of the hill, with the few rooms included having large, welcoming rugs and carpets and plenty of detail and Middle-earth-themed Easter eggs. The main hallway is the larger of the few rooms included with a large red carpet and rug along with a clothes rack and a chest stuffed full of Middle Earth-inspired accessories. The sitting room has a couple of armchairs and shelves, along with a crackling fireplace, which is one of the main play features included in the $270 build. A small study contains a chair and a large desk next to a much smaller fireplace. With a relatively lacklustre interior, LEGO has thankfully given us a few side builds to expand this brick-built version of The Shire. These elements mainly centre around Bilbo's 111th birthday party. There's a small tent, a table with a decorated cake and a podium with an exclusive 'Happy Birthday Bilbo Baggins' sign, which, like the tent, uses a new fabric piece. There are further side builds for Gandalf's horse-drawn carriage, which he uses to arrive in the Shire and transport his fireworks, along with a red and yellow firework dragon. The horse-drawn carriage includes the usual horse piece in brown whilst the dragon is a very simple build made up of just a handful of pieces. With such a harsh price-to-piece ratio compared to the previous two LEGO Icons Lord Of The Rings models, 10354 thankfully includes a total of nine Minifigures. These include Frodo Baggins, "Sam" Samwise Gamgee, "Merry" Meriadoc Brandybuck, "Pippin" Peregrin Took, Bilbo Baggins, Rosie Cotton, Everard Proudfoot, Aurora Proudfoot and Gandalf. Furthermore, the Gandalf figure includes both his hat and his long grey hair along with the ability for him to sit down on the seats included in Bag End's interior. 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire Set Name - The Lord of the Rings: The Shire Set Number - 10354 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 2,017 Price - $269.99 / €269.99 / £229.99 Release Date - 2nd April 2025 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire releases on the 2nd of April 2025, but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 10354 in a weeks time? Is there anything missing from this brick-built version of The Shire? Would you have preferred an expanded interior to Bag End?

May the Fourth is always a major event for LEGO Star Wars fans and 2025 looks to be no exception. Along with the D2C of 75409 Jango Fett's Starship and six more LEGO Star Wars sets, a brand new Gift With Purchase will also be available starting from the 1st of May 2025 for this year's celebrations. This GWP in particular is 40765 Republic Escape Pod which includes a total of 190 pieces and three Minifigures. The promotional item will be available with LEGO Star Wars purchases over $160 and will most likely last until the 7th or 8th of May 2025. Regardless of it being 20 years since the release of Revenge of the Sith and 10 years since The Force Awakens debuted, 40765 will in fact be based on the popular Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series. 40765 will most likely be a reference to the story arc where Boba Fett infiltrates a Republic Venator-class Star Destroyer, seeking revenge against Mace Windu. Boba Fett is one of three Minifigures rumoured to be included in the 2025 promotional set along with two clone cadets. While LEGO has released several escape pods over the years such as 75136 Droid Escape Pod, this will be the first Republic-era version to appear in brick-built LEGO form. The escape pod will likely feature a sleek, rounded shape with a predominantly grey and red colour scheme. With just 190 pieces included, a very small interior may be included, potentially with space for a Minifigure or two and a control panel for added detail. 40765 Republic Escape Pod Set Name - Republic Escape Pod Set Number - 40765 Age Range - TBC Piece Count - 190 Price - GWP over $160 Release Date - 1st May 2025 40765 Republic Escape Pod will be available starting from the 1st of May 2025 but what do you think?

After its long-awaited brick-built debut in 2024, the LEGO Fortnite theme will return this summer with a total of three sets launching on the 1st of June followed by another 18+ model in August. Unlike its first wave in October, this Summer wave will consist of more Minifigure-based sets along with a brick-built model of Klomo which will be the joint most expensive Fortnite set so far retailing for $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99. 77075 Peely's Camp and Sparkplug 77075 will recreate a small Minifigure scale campfire scene with the Minifigures Peely and Sparkplug. A small tent or wooden shelter, similar to the ones found in LEGO Fortnite's survival mode will likely be included along with a campfire build complete with a cooking pot or roasting stick. With 250 pieces included retailing for $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99, we may also see a small vehicle included given Sparkpug's mechanic background. Set Name - Peely's Camp and Sparkplug Set Number - 77075 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 250 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 77076 Durrr Burger Restaurant Following 77070 Durrr Burger in LEGO Fortnite's debut wave, we will be getting a set of the actual Durrr Burger Restaurant on the 1st of June 2025. The brick-built restaurant will include a total of 546 pieces, retailing for $59.99 / €59.99 / £49.99 and most likely including three to four Minifigures. Some of the most likely characters to be included in the 10+ model include Beef Boss, Sizzle and Grill Sergeant. The build itself will most likely be a facade of the Durrr Burger Restaurant complete with a counter, fryer, grill and menu boards. Some indoor seating with tables and chairs will be included along with possibly a small playable rooftop section. LEGO may even include the option to place 77070 Durrr Burger on top of the brick-built restaurant and recreate the building's Durrr Burger Sign. Set Name - Durrr Burger Restaurant Set Number - 77076 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 546 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £49.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 77077 Klombo Last but not least is the latest brick-built LEGO Fortnite character of a fully poseable Klombo, similar to the version already seen in game. 77077 will retail for $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 with a total of 1,084 pieces and a currently unknown number of Minifigures, if any! Klombo will feature its signature blowhole on its head, allowing items to be inserted and then launched out as another play feature of the 10+ model. Set Name - Klombo Set Number - 77077 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 1,084 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 All three of these LEGO Fortnite sets will be released on the 1st of June 2025, but what do you think?

Since its debut in 2021, the LEGO Icons Botanical Collection subtheme has hit the nail on the head with the adult market of LEGO. Four years and many brick-built plants and flowers later, LEGO Botanicals is officially branching out to become its own 18+ theme. The new adult-oriented theme kicks off with four brand new sets launching on the 1st of January 2025. These four sets are 10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, 10343 Mini Orchid, 10344 Lucky Bamboo and 10345 Flower Arrangement. In fact, the latter of these releases a month later on the 1st of February 2025 yet is still a beautiful display model, retailing for a fair price and including plenty of interesting building techniques and parts just like every LEGO Botanicals set. 10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet The second largest set of the four Botanical sets releasing next year is another brand new Bouquet of 10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet. This time however the $60 set focuses on several flowers which all have brightly coloured pink blossoms. These types of flowers include daisies, cornflowers, eucalyptus, elderflowers, roses, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, a waterlily dahlia and a campanula to make a lovely contrast of colours and tones of pink. Set Name - Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet Set Number - 10342 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 749 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99 Release Date - 1st January 2025 10343 Mini Orchid Both 10343 Mini Orchid and 10344 Lucky Bamboo are part of the classic quartet of beautiful plants known as the Four Gentlemen. Two of the four plants appeared in brick-built form in August, with 10368 Chrysanthemum and 10369 Plum Blossom. On the 1st of January 2025, LEGO is adding to the quartet with a brick-built Mini Orchid retailing for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 with a total of 274 pieces. Orchid represents Spring and is basically a smaller version of a previous LEGO Botanical model of 10311 Orchid. This time, however, 10343 includes five peach-coloured Orchid blossoms along with some green leaves all in a light terracotta brick-built flowerpot. Set Name - Mini Orchid Set Number - 10343 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 274 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st January 2025 10344 Lucky Bamboo 10344 Lucky Bamboo is the next LEGO Botanicals set which includes a total of 325 pieces for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99. The final model of the Four Gentlemen is the Lucky Bamboo which represents Winter. The 18+ model of 10344 Lucky Bamboo contains three brick-built green bamboo stems in some LEGO pebbles which all sits in a plant pot with a wood-effect plinth. Set Name - Lucky Bamboo Set Number - 10344 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 325 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st January 2025 10345 Flower Arrangement Last but not least we have the largest of the four Botanical models of 10345 Flower Arrangement which in fact releases a month later on the 1st of February 2025. The 18+ set includes various brick-built flowers such as peonies, camellias, hydrangeas, buttercups, baby's breath, bouvardia and lilies that are all displayed in an elegant white pedestal vase. Set Name - Flower Arrangement Set Number - 10345 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 1,161 Price - $109.99 / €109.99 / £94.99 Release Date - 1st February 2025 All four of these LEGO Botanical Collection sets launch on the 1st of January 2025 (or February 2025) but what do you think?

2025 has started off with a bang with the LEGO Botanicals theme, becoming a fully-fledged theme and releasing a total of four brand-new models. On the 1st of May 2025 the theme will expand even further with the release of 10347 Small Summer Bouquet. The name suggests another brick-built Bouquet but the recommended age range of 9+ rather than the usual 18+ suggests that the theme may be taking a new direction... Now that all of LEGO's brick-built flowers are under one roof of the LEGO Botanicals line, the Danish toy company may start looking at targeting not only adults but also younger children and teenagers. We've already seen this with the likes of 40524 Sunflowers and 40647 Lotus Flowers which were released under the LEGO Creator theme but will now be grouped with the rest of LEGOs floral collection under Botanicals. This starts with 10347 Small Summer Bouquet which, as we've already stated, will be for ages nine and over as it recreates a vibrant mix of seasonal flowers and foliage, possibly featuring bright and warm colours that capture the essence of summer. The likes of more sunflowers, daises, chamomile, lavender, wildflowers, poppies and cosmos would all make a colourful mix of unique flowers for this small model which includes 373 pieces retailing for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99. 10347 Small Summer Bouquet Set Name - Small Summer Bouquet Set Number - 10347 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 373 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st May 2025 10347 Small Summer Bouquet releases on the 1st of May 2025 but what do you think?

The 1st of March has very quickly become one of the biggest LEGO release dates of the year with 2025 featuring more than 50 brand new sets launching tomorrow. LEGO Speed Champions will finally see its first sets hit the shelves with the long-awaited Formula 1 sets recreating each of the 10 F1 teams in the eight-stud wide brick-built form. They will be available alongside a brand new LEGO Speed Champions Polybag. Similar to how February saw 40781 Badnik: Crabmeat, another brand new set will be available from the 1st of March in the LEGO Insiders Rewards centre. For 2000 points you will be able to pick the first of supposedly two Space-themed LEGO Ideas sets coming in 2025 of 40786 Micro Command Centre. The promotional item is much smaller than the original design but still includes the ever-cute LEGO Space baby Minifigure. Two more currently unrevealed GWPs will also be arriving later this month: 40764 Easter Bunny Surprise and 40762 Mixed Flowerpot. Both promotional items will be bringing some seasonal joy to this month's selection of GWPs but likely at a cost as we expect both models to be available at a high threshold, starting around the middle of March The end of March will likely be much quieter as LEGO prepare for the release of the highly anticipated 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: Bag End and more expensive D2Cs from both the LEGO Ideas and LEGO Disney themes. But for the third month of the year, here's what we know so far for March 2025's full selection of GWPs: 30709 Ferrari 499P - Hypercar 2025 is the year for LEGO and F1 but this year's LEGO Speed Champions polybag is in fact based on a LeMans car driven by Alessandro Pier Guidi, James Calado and Antonio Giovinazzi. 30709 Ferrari 499P - Hypercar will be available from the 1st to the 11th of March 2025 but, reportedly due to licenses, will only be a GWP with Ferrari-branded LEGO purchases. This does mean however that the threshold for purchasing the new polybag is pretty low. Set Name - Ferrari 499P - Hypercar Set Number - 30709 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 62 Price - any LEGO Ferrari purchases Release Date - 1st-11th March 2025 40786 Micro Command Centre 40786 Micro Command Centre is one of the two winners of 2024's Exploring The Cosmos competition and will be available from the 1st of March 2025. Unfortunately, the 18+ model will be a brand new LEGO Insiders Reward set, being obtainable when you spend 2000 Insiders points. The microscale build includes the command centre itself along with a loading and unloading platform attached to a station and micro railway. Set Name - Micro Command Centre Set Number - 40786 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 214 Price - Insiders Reward (2000 points) Release Date - 1st March 2025 30702 Toad (Pit Crew) Our second polybag on this list doesn't celebrate the release of a new wave but instead a very important day in the calendar of many gamers: Mario Day. Like previous years, LEGO will be celebrating the occasion with 30702 Toad (Pit Crew) available with LEGO Super Mario purchases over $50. The 6+ model fits in perfectly with the LEGO Super Mario Kart models that were released in January, especially with another chance to get the Pit Crew Toad figure. Set Name - Toad (Pit Crew) Set Number - 30702 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 39 Price - GWP over $50 Release Date - 5th-12th March 2025 40764 Easter Bunny Surprise GWP It only feels like yesterday that we were celebrating Christmas and the New Year but in March, 2025s LEGO Easter GWP will be available. In particular, this is 40764 Easter Bunny Surprise which includes 217 pieces to create a blocky, white Easter bunny. The lid of the white bunny can be removed to reveal the "surprise". The threshold and exact release date for the 7+ model are currently unknown. Set Name - Easter Bunny Surprise GWP Set Number - 40764 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 217 Price - TBC GWP Release Date - March 2025 40762 Mixed Flowerpot GWP Last but not least we have a brand new GWP from the ever-popular LEGO Botanicals line. This time it's 40762 Mixed Flowerpot which includes a range of colourful brick-built flowers in a small white pot. The 18+ display model includes a total of 253 pieces and just like 40764, its finer details such as release date and threshold are currently unknown.

In particular, this Gift With Purchase is 40762 Mixed Flowerpot which is available starting from the 12th of March 2025 with any LEGO purchases over $140. The exact time period of this GWP is currently unknown so our advice is to grab it whilst you can... The build of 40762 Mix Flowerpot is basically a smaller version of February's 10345 Flow Arrangement, including a total of 253 pieces. A range of colourful brick-built flowers and plants are included in a small white pot. The flowers which are coloured a mix of different greens, yellows, purples and pinks can easily be attached and detached to the small pot which has very simple bit of hidden LEGO dirt. 40762 Mixed Flowerpot Set Name - Mixed Flowerpot Set Number - 40762 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 253 Price - GWP over $140 Release Date - 12th March 2025 40762 Mixed Flowerpot is available from the 12th of March 2025 but what do you think?

In less than two weeks for the United Kingdom and Ireland, it will be Mother's Day and already the LEGO are preparing for this special day. Unsurprisingly, the Danish toy manufacturers are targeting the ever-popular LEGO Botanical Collection at our forever-loved mums with a recent advert for the upcoming day leaking an upcoming brick-built flower set... In particular, this is the previously rumoured LEGO Botanicals set of 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet. Another brick-built bouquet display from the theme, this time branded as a 9+ model retailing for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 with a total of 373 pieces. The vibrant mix of seasonal flowers and foliage will be released on the 1st of June 2025 and, like many LEGO Bouquets released in the past few years, a separate vase will be needed to display the beautiful flowers. These flowers which you will be able to add to your ever-growing LEGO flower creation feature plenty of bright and warm colours that capture the essence of summer. The likes of Billy buttons, bluebells, Cleopatra ferns, yellow yarrows, pink gerberas, peonies and tulips are all included in 10347. The wonderful array of unique flowers mainly brings a mix of yellow, blue, pink and white colours to another beautiful display model. 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet Set Name - Petite Sunny Bouquet Set Number - 10347 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 373 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st May 2025 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet releases on the 1st of May 2025 but what do you think?

After our first look via an official advert from LEGO themselves, today the Danish toy manufacturers have gone ahead and revealed the latest LEGO Botanicals set releasing on the 1st of May 2025. In particular, this is 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet which includes a total of 373 pieces and continues the affordable range of brick-built flowers with a recommended retail price of $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99. The May 2025 model becomes the first set from the LEGO Botanicals theme to not be branded with an 18+ range. Instead, 10347 is targeted for those ages nine and above as the theme aims to target all ages and not just adults which it has previously been extremely successful with. This latest brick-built bouquet display captures the essence of summer with mood-boosting pastel shades and authentic botanical details. The spring flowers and plants included in 10347 are Billy buttons, bluebells, Cleopatra ferns, yellow yarrow, a pink gerbera, a peony and a tulip. The wonderful array of unique flowers with adjustable stems mainly brings a mix of yellow, blue, pink and white colours to another beautiful display model. 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet Set Name - Petite Sunny Bouquet Set Number - 10347 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 373 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st May 2025 10347 Petite Sunny Bouquet releases on the 1st of May 2025 but what do you think?

One of the most anticipated LEGO sets of 2025 is just days away from both its reveal and its release as the next LEGO Lord Of The Rings D2C is right around the corner. This is the previously leaked 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire which releases on the 2nd of April 2025 but will be officially revealed in just a couple of days on the 25th of March 2025. 10354 becomes our third LEGO LOTR Icons model in as many years recreating Bilbo and Frodo Baggins' iconic Hobbit lair. In this article, we'll be discussing everything you need to know about the latest Middle Earth-based LEGO set ahead of its presentation next week and the 18+ models corresponding Gift With Purchase... The Important Details With a set number of 10354, this brick-built version of the Shire is the latest Lord Of The Rings model to be part of the ever-growing LEGO Icons theme. Compared to the other two LEGO Icons LOTR models, 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire is a lot smaller and much cheaper including a total of 2,017 pieces retailing for $269.99 / €269.99 / £249.99. The 18+ branded set will be available starting from the 2nd of April 2025 remaining exclusive to LEGO stores and LEGO shop@home for the first few months of its product life. 10354 will most likely retire in a few year's time, remaining available until 2028 at the earliest alongside the still readily available 10316 The Lord Of The Rings: Rivendell and 10333 The Lord Of The Rings: Barad-Dûr. Exterior Build With over 2,000 pieces included, it is no surprise that 10354 is an extremely detailed and beautiful brick-built version of The Shire. The Hobbit cave Bag End is the main build of the shire, featuring the iconic round green door framed by some wooden details. These wooden details continue around several different-sized round windows, allowing light into the well-known Hobbit Hole. A well-tended garden flourishes just outside the numerous windows and large round green door. We can see a range of colourful flowers and plants including some vibrant sunflowers and a thick oak tree sitting atop of Bag End. A narrow, brick-built winding path lined with a white picket fence leads up to the door and selection of colourful vegetation. The house itself is built seamlessly into the hill, with its grassy roof blending into the surrounding green landscape. Interior Build The interior of 10354 becomes less detailed and more play-heavy. Unfortunately, there is no back wall to the 18+ model with the back part measuring only around 10 studs wide. With that said, however, the interior is fairly open with there being plenty of play features included such as the ability to rotate certain objects, characters and scenes. Once you walk through the brick-built round door, the Minifigures included with 10354 will be immediately welcomed to a warm, inviting and impeccably cosy cave. The walls and ceilings are mainly curved to reflect the natural contours of the hill with the few rooms included having large, welcoming rugs and carpets. The main hallway is the larger of the few rooms included with a large red carpet and rug along with a clothes rack and a chest stuffed full of Middle Earth-inspired accessories. The sitting room has a couple of armchairs and shelves along with a crackling fireplace which is one of the main play features included in the $270 build. There also looks to be a small study containing a chair and a large desk located next to a much smaller fireplace. Side Builds With a relatively lacklustre interior, LEGO has thankfully given us a few side builds to expand this brick-built version of The Shire. These elements mainly centre around Bilbo's 111th birthday party. There's a small tent, a table with a decorated cake and a podium with an exclusive 'Happy Birthday Bilbo Baggins' sign which, like the tent, uses a new fabric piece. There are further side builds for Gandalf's horse-drawn carriage which he uses to arrive in the Shire and transport his fireworks, along with a red and yellow dragon. The horse-drawn carriage includes the usual horse piece in brown whilst the dragon is a very simple build made up of just a handful of pieces. Minifigure Lineup With such a harsh price-to-piece ratio compared to the previous two LEGO Icons Lord Of The Rings models, 10354 thankful includes a total of nine Minifigures. These include Frodo Baggins, "Sam" Samwise Gamgee, "Merry" Meriadoc Brandybuck, "Pippin" Peregrin Took, Bilbo Baggins, Rosie Cotton, Everard Proudfoot, Aurora Proudfoot and Gandalf. Furthermore, the Gandalf figure includes both his hat and his long grey hair along with the ability for him to sit down on the seats included in Bag End's interior. Gift With Purchase Once 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire releases on the 2nd of April 2025, an exclusive Gift With Purchase will also be available alongside the 18+ model. This GWP in particular is 40761 The Lord Of The Rings: Sméagol and Déagol which unsurprisingly includes exclusive Minifigures of Sméagol and Déagol. 181 pieces are used to recreate a very simple and small Lord Of The Rings diorama. The display and play model depicts the two Minifigure hobbits fishing in the River Anduin in their boat. The One Ring is also included as a focal point of the 18+ promotional set which leads to the unfortunate event of the two hobbits fighting and eventually Sméagol killing Déagol. So that's everything you need to know about 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 10354 in less than two weeks time? Is there anything missing from this brick-built version of The Shire? Would you have preferred an expanded interior to Bag End? And what do you make of the corresponding LOTR GWP? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.

Over the weekend we got our first leaked images of this year's LEGO Icons Lord Of The Rings D2C and, just like 2024, a brand new exclusive Gift With Purchase will also be available with the launch of the new LOTR set. This GWP in particular is 40761 The Lord Of The Rings: Sméagol and Déagol which includes a total of 181 pieces. It will be available with purchases of 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire from the 1st of April 2025. The latest rumours regarding this GWP come from the Instagram user LSWSA (@lswsa13678), but specific details regarding the 18+ model remain somewhat of a mystery. The name suggests that the two cousins of Sméagol and Déagol will be included as Minifigures and will most likely be exclusive to the model. This was the same case with last year's Lord Of The Rings GWP which kept Nazgul exclusive to the promotional item. We're guessing 40761 will be a small diorama scene, depicting the two Minifigure hobbits fishing in the River Anduin in their boat. A small water base with a brick-built boat will be included along with fishing gear and accessories for our two main characters. The One Ring will also likely be included as a focal point of the set as it leads to the unfortunate events afterwards of the two hobbits fighting and eventually Sméagol killing Déagol. 40761 The Lord Of The Rings: Sméagol and Déagol Set Name - The Lord Of The Rings: Sméagol and Déagol Set Number - 40761 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 181 Price - GWP of 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire Release Date - 1st April 2025 40761 The Lord Of The Rings: Sméagol and Déagol releases on the 1st of April 2025 but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 10354 The Lord Of The Rings: The Shire and this upcoming GWP in a few weeks time? What do you hope is included in the promotional item?

After the release of 2025's LEGO NINJAGO D2C 71837 NINJAGO City Workshops earlier this month, our attention turns to the summer with another action-packed wave for the ever-popular unlicensed theme. A total of 10 sets will be launching on the 1st of June 2025 making the total number of LEGO NINJAGO sets releasing this year at 24. Luckily, none of these upcoming summer sets will be as expensive as March's $250 D2C. With that said, however, the June 2025 wave will be an expensive one with three of the ten sets retailing for over $100. These include 71846 The Fire Knight Mech, 71847 Guardian Dragon And Temple and 71848 The Temple Bounty. The latter of the three sets will recreate a villainous version of Destiny's Bounty, mainly coloured black and red. The 14+ model includes six Minifigures of Zane, Cole, Nya, Wyldfare, Rogue and Zarkt at an RRP of $199.99 / €199.99 / £179.99. The other two expensive LEGO NINJAGO models of 71846 and 71847 are more like play-friendly diorama builds. In fact, 71846 includes NINJAGO Legends branding on its box design along with showcasing the towering red Fire Knight Mech controlled by the ninja Kai. Meanwhile, 71847 Guardian Dragon And Temple includes Lloyd's brick-built green dragon as its centrepiece. Similar to 71846, it's based on a similar round black base with just two Minifigures included. The rest of the summer wave consists of the usual LEGO NINJAGO builds from a range of brick-built mechs to high-speed and flying vehicles. For the youngest of builders, a brand new 4+ model is also releasing on the 1st of June 2025 of 71840 Rogue VS Drix Race Car Battle. The former ninja Rogue will be included alongside one of the many Forbidden Five members who make an appearance in this wave of Drix. 71838 Kai's Motorcycle Speed Racer Set Name - Kai's Motorcycle Speed Racer Set Number - 71838 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 79 Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71839 Arin's Spinjitzu Battle Mech Set Name - Arin's Spinjitzu Battle Mech Set Number - 71839 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 213 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71840 Rogue VS Drix Race Car Battle Set Name - Rogue VS Drix Race Car Battle Set Number - 71840 Age Range - 4+ Piece Count - 111 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71842 Rontu The Master Dragon Set Name - Rontu The Master Dragon Set Number - 71842 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 381 Price - $44.99 / €44.99 / £39.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71843 Rogue's Mech Dragon Rider Set Name - Rogue's Mech Dragon Rider Set Number - 71843 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 584 Price - $69.99 / €69.99 / £59.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71844 Ninja Combat Vehicle Set Name - Ninja Combat Vehicle Set Number - 71844 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 561 Price - $89.99 / €89.99 / £79.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71845 Lloyd's Transforming Jet Mech Set Name - Lloyd's Transforming Jet Mech Set Number - 71845 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 1,112 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71846 The Fire Knight Mech Set Name - The Fire Knight Mech Set Number - 71846 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 996 Price - $119.99 / €119.99 / £109.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71847 Guardian Dragon And Temple Set Name - Guardian Dragon And Temple Set Number - 71847 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 1,650 Price - $149.99 / €149.99 / £134.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 71848 The Temple Bounty Set Name - The Temple Bounty Set Number - 71848 Age Range - 14+ Piece Count - 2,387 Price - $199.99 / €199.99 / £179.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 All ten of these LEGO NINJAGO sets release on the 1st of June 2025 but what do you think?

Whilst the latest adaptation of Harry Potter as a TV series for HBO continues to be in production, the steady flow of LEGO Harry Potter-themed sets also continues year after year. After seven sets launched on the 1st of January 2025, another seven will be releasing on the 1st of June 2025 under the LEGO Harry Potter brand. The theme will then see its usual Advent Calendar and D2C release in the late summer and early autumn months. This summer however, the theme will continue to expand the latest and apparently greatest-ever Hogwarts modular system with the release of 76445 Hogwarts Castle: Herbology Class and 76454 Hogwarts Castle: The Main Tower. The latter of these will become the most expensive LEGO Harry Potter set of 2025 so far with a total of 2,135 pieces retailing for $249.99 / €249.99 / £219.99. June will also see two of the very many magical and mystical Harry Potter creatures return in brick-built LEGO form with 76448 Fawkes Dumbledore's Phoenix and 76449 The Monster Book Of Monsters. Along with returning creatures, we'll also see a Minifigure debut of a character: Marge Dursley. She'll be included in 76451 Privet Drive: Aunt Marge's Visit which retails for $89.99 / €89.99 / £79.99 and includes a total of 639 pieces. 76445 Hogwarts Castle: Herbology Class The latest classroom edition to the LEGO Hogwarts modular system, after Januarys 76442 Hogwarts Castle: Charms Class, is 76445 Hogwarts Castle: Herbology Class. The 390-piece set will likely recreate the Herbology greenhouse including a range of magical plants and flowers. Minifigures of Professor Sprot, Neville Longbottom and a couple more students are likely to be included at that $49.99 / €49.99 / £44.99 price point. Set Name - Hogwarts Castle: Herbology Class Set Number - 76445 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 390 Price - $49.99 / €49.99 / £44.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76448 Fawkes Dumbledore's Phoenix Dumbledore's Phoenix Fawkes has already appeared in brick-built LEGO form before with 76394 Fawkes, Dumbledore’s Phoenix. On the 1st of June 2025 however, we'll be getting a much smaller version of the Phoenix with a total of 299 pieces retailing for $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99. This suggests the 8+ model will likely be similar to 76425 Hedwig at 4 Privet Drive which retailed for the same price and included a couple of extra brick-built accessories. Set Name - Fawkes Dumbledore's Phoenix Set Number - 76448 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 299 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76449 The Monster Book Of Monsters The Monster Book of Monsters is another brick-built create which has already been translated into LEGO form before. Previously however it was only available as a Gift With Purchase and this won't be the case with 76449 which is a slightly larger model including a total of 518 pieces retailing for $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99. Set Name - The Monster Book Of Monsters Set Number - 76449 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 518 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76450 Hogwarts Express Book Nook 76450 Hogwarts Express Book Nook will be the second LEGO set releasing in June as part of the brand new Book Nook collection after 10367 Lord Of The Rings Booknook: Gandalf VS. Durin's Bane. This Book Nook features a scene involving the Hogwarts Express and will most likely include the train along with train tracks, a small tunnel section and other bits of scenery. The 10+ model includes 832 pieces retailing for $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99. Set Name - Hogwarts Express Book Nook Set Number - 764 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 832 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76451 Privet Drive: Aunt Marge's Visit This 8+ model is another based on The Prisoner of Azkaban and in particular, recreates Harry's Aunt Marge visiting the Dursleys' family home and inflating like a balloon after insulting Harry's parents. The house will be recreated in brick-built form but the main attraction of the $90 set will be the exclusive Aunt Marge Minifigure. Other characters included will be the other members of the Dursley family and obviously Harry Potter himself. Set Name - Privet Drive: Aunt Marge's Visit Set Number - 76451 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 639 Price - $89.99 / €89.99 / £79.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76452 Quality Quidditch Supplies & Ice Cream Parlour Along with new additions to the Hogwarts modular system, 76452 is the latest edition to the Minifigure scale Diagon Alley line of sets. The 8+ model recreates both the Quality Quidditch Supplies store and the Ice Cream Parlour which together retail for $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99. Expect popular characters such as Florean Fortescue and Oliver Wood to be included as Minifigures along with the usual figures of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. Set Name - Quality Quidditch Supplies & Ice Cream Parlour Set Number - 76452 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 795 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 76454 Hogwarts Castle: The Main Tower Last but not least we have by far the largest and most expensive LEGO Harry Potter set on this list of 76454 Hogwarts Castle: The Main Tower. The next major Hogwarts expansion includes a total of 2,135 pieces retailing for $249.99 / €249.99 / £219.99. The 10+ model likely serves as the centrepiece of the latest Hogwarts modular system, depicting several key locations from the eight films. We can expect to see the likes of Dumbledor's office, the Gryffindor common room, a moving staircase features, hidden passageways to the Camber of Secrets for example and plenty more. With a recommended retail price of $250, we can expect a large Minifigure selection including a wide array of Professors, students and a couple of more obscure characters like Nearly Headless Nick. Set Name - Hogwarts Castle: The Main Tower Set Number - 76454 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 2,135 Price - $249.99 / €249.99 / £219.99 Release Date - 1st June 2025 All seven of these LEGO Harry Potter sets release on the 1st of June 2025 but what do you think? Will you be purchasing any of these seven sets in a couple of months time? What's your favourite and least favourite set of the wave? How do you think LEGO will tackle the Aunt Marge Minifigure? Will you be spending $250 to further expand your LEGO Hogwarts? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.
