The latest LEGO Icons display model of 10366 Tropical Aquarium has just been officially revealed to go alongside the striking 4,154-piece display model is its corresponding, exclusive Gift With Purchase . This GWP in particular is 5009823 Fish Tank Filter & Fish Food, which will only be available with purchases of the 18+ $479.99 / €449.99  / £399.99 fish tank from the 13th to the 19th of November 2025. Similar to last month's 5009609 Captain Jack Sparrow’s Compass , 5009823 is another yellow box promotional item and therefore will likely only be available for those few days in November before never returning again. The build itself isn't that substantial either, recreating a miniature fish tank filter that will sit outside of the 4,154-piece aquarium. The Fish Tank filter includes a simple, blocky filter body, probably in black, with plenty of translucent blue elements replicating water inside the filter. The filter also includes a small brick-built fish, possibly a small reference to Finding Nemo. A small intake pipe extends from the filter toward the tank, which is fully compatible with and can be easily attached to 10366. Finally, the 177-piece build includes a small box of fish food with a printed red fish on it. 5009823 Fish Tank Filter & Fish Food Set Name - Fish Tank Filter & Fish Food Set Number - 5009823 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 177 Availability - Free with purchases of 10366 Tropical Aquarium Promo Dates - 13th - 19th November 2025 5009823 Fish Tank Filter & Fish Food is available from purchases of 10366 Tropical Aquarium  from the 13th of November 2025, but what do you think?

The LEGO Ideas theme is sending fans on a thrilling trip back to the 1980s with the official reveal of 21363 The Goonies. The 18+ model brings brick-built nostalgia to fans of the cult classic movie once it releases on the 1st of November 2025 alongside its corresponding GWP of 40773 The Goonies: The Walshes' Attic . The 10th and final LEGO Ideas  set of the year includes a total of 2,912 pieces, retailing for $309.99 / €299.99  / £269.99. The official 18+ model is based on the fan-designed set by Delusion Brick, which won 2024's If We Could Turn Back Time challenge. It pays tribute to the 1985 film, The Goonies, which follows a group of kids on a daring treasure hunt filled with puzzles, pirate ships and perilous encounters. 21363 marks only the second-ever LEGO Goonies set after the franchise previously appeared in a LEGO Dimensions Level Pack. With almost 3,000 pieces, the LEGO Ideas  model is a substantial build, dominated by an extremely detailed brick-built recreation of One-Eyed Willy's pirate ship, the Inferno. One of many LEGO ships released in recent years, the Inferno is a classic vessel, coloured mainly brown with a curved hull, angled stern, and rugged shaping. This perfectly captures the weathered look of the centuries-old pirate ship, which LEGO have placed in a cavernous setting. The Inferno also includes plenty of decorative detailing with the deck including a ship's wheel, barrels, lanterns, treasure and even spots for the crew to explore. There are also cannons, which likely have a small fire mechanism included. Cream-coloured, torn fabric sails can also be found hanging from the ship's tall, thin brown masts Turning the model around reveals a full cross-section of the cave and the ship's interior, acting as a multi-scene diorama packed full of references to the movie's treasure hunt. The ship appears lodged between some rock formations, with multiple interconnected levels that reference key moments from The Goonies. There's the booby-trapped cavern with swinging boulders, an underground waterway with a wooden rope bridge, and the skeleton organ where the correct melody must be played to advance. Builders can also find the recognisable skull-shaped rock face, along with a feature for the minifigures to slide into the water from the tightly packed cavern. The rear, meanwhile, incorporates the pirate ship’s cabin, ladders, and hidden passageways for our LEGO Minifigures  to explore. The 18+ set includes a complete cast of 12 new and exclusive LEGO Minifigures , which incorporate some of the most iconic details and accessories from The Goonies franchise in brick-built form. These include the main Goonies of Mikey, Mouth, Chunk, Data, Stef, Andy and Brand alongside Sloth in his Superman shirt, One-Eyed Willie as a skeleton and members of the Fratelli family, which include Jake, Francies and Mama Fratelli. 21363 The Goonies Set Name - The Goonies Set Number - 21363 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 2,912 Price - $309.99 / €299.99  / £269.99 Release Date - 1st November 2025 21363 The Goonies releases on the 1st of November 2025, but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 21363 in a weeks time? What are you looking forward to most about this licensed LEGO Ideas  model? Which of the 12 Minifigures are you most excited to display?

LEGO have jumped the gun and officially revealed the upcoming LEGO Ideas Goonies Gift With Purchase before presenting the actual LEGO Goonies set. The nostalgic LEGO Gift With Purchase  of 40773 The Goonies: The Walshes' Attic is available starting from the 1st of November 2025, alongside the 10th and final LEGO Ideas  model of the year: 21363 The Goonies . The 179-piece build is a compact yet detailed brick-built recreation of the attic scene from The Goonies, where the Goonies themselves find a treasure map leading to One-Eyed Willy's hidden treasure. The cluttered, treasure-filled attic belonging to the Walsh family is built on a brown plate, replicating wooden floorboards. Tan coloured walls can be found on either side of the model, with the right wall being at an angle to replicate the low-height attic. In front of these walls are a variety of brick-built objects and details from the popular 1980s movie. This includes a statue and a sticker of the pirate painting that Clark “Mouth” Devereaux put his tongue through in the movie. The 18+ promotional item also includes two exclusive LEGO Minifigures  of Mikey and Brand’s parents, Irving Walsh and Irene Walsh. 40773 The Goonies: The Walshes' Attic Set Name - The Goonies: The Walshes' Attic Set Number - 40773 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 179 Availability - Free with purchases of 21363 The Goonies Promo Dates - 1st-7th November 2025 40773 The Goonies: The Walshes' Attic is available from the 1st of November 2025, but what do you think?

October has already been a busy month for promotions as the LEGO Group has been busy cashing in on its first $1,000 set of 75419 Death Star . The second half of the month will be filled with even more brand-new LEGO GWPs , including the previously revealed 40785 Northern Lights Diorama and the focus of today's article: 40774 Classic Animation Scenes. The 9+ model will be available from the 28th to the 31st of October 2025 with all LEGO purchases over $130. The 270-piece build is centred around a retro brick-built television, complete with a rounded screen frame, chunky brown casing and two angled antenna pieces on top. The design is very much based on mid-20th-century TVs, giving 40774 a nostalgic feel that ties nicely with the idea of reliving Disney's classic animation scenes in brick-built LEGO form. The television sits on two short legs with further details including printed speaker vents and two circular knobs representing volume and channel dials. Inside the TV is a swappable display area where different iconic Disney scenes can be placed. Three scenes are included in the LEGO Disney  model: The Lion King: A small LEGO Friends  lion piece is used to represent Simba, who sits on top of Pride Rock, overlooking a jungle scenery. Toy Story: A LEGO Minifigure  version of Woody can be found in Andy's room, which is complete with the iconic blue cloud wallpaper, a Pixar ball, a micro figure green army man and Lenny the Binoculars. Disney Castle Logo: A minimalist white build of the iconic Disney Castle with a star swooping overhead on a blue backdrop, representing the studio's logo animation. 40774 Classic Animation Scenes Set Name - Classic Animation Scenes Set Number - 40774 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 270 Availability - Free with all LEGO purchases over $130 Promo Dates - 28th - 31st October 2025 40774 Classic Animation Scenes is available starting from the 28th of October 2025, but what do you think?

Every year, LEGO releases a brand new set to mark the start of the Christmas shopping season and typically the busiest shopping day of the year in many countries across the globe. 2025 is no different, with the release of 10356 Star Trek: USS Enterprise D on this year's Black Friday, the 28th of November 2025. Alongside this brand new LEGO Icons model will be a corresponding Gift With Purchase of 40768 Star Trek: Type-15 Shuttlepod. The rumoured 18+ model will recreate one of The Next Generation's most recognisable auxiliary craft of the Type-15 Shuttlepod in brick-built LEGO form. With 261 pieces included, we can expect a compact but detailed build, including plenty of details and references to the popular science fiction media franchise. Hopefully, it will be in the same scale as 10356 Star Trek: USS Enterprise D, which it will be available with starting from the 28th of November 2025. The build itself will likely be in a light grey and dark grey colour scheme, with prints/stickers included for details such as the windows, the Starfleet insignia and shuttle markings. Plenty of small, sloped and curved elements will be utilised to recreate the shuttlepod's sleek, boxy silhouette, complete with its squared off nose and smooth sides. Hopefully, a small interior is also included with a Minifigure-friendly cockpit, including further details such as a simple control panel. Current rumours suggest that an exclusive LEGO Minifigure will be included in 40768 to add to the further nine characters included in 10356. This figure in particular is Ensign Ro Laren, who first appears in the fifth season episode entitled "Ensign Ro". She will include the Starfleet duty uniform from seasons 5 to 7 of The Next Generation, along with an accessory such as a tricorder or a phaser. 40768 Star Trek: Type-15 Shuttlepod Set Name - Star Trek: Type-15 Shuttlepod Set Number - 40768 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 261 Availability - Free with purchases of 10356 Star Trek: USS Enterprise D Promo Dates - 28th November 2025 40768 Star Trek: Type-15 Shuttlepod is available from the 28th of November 2025, but what do you think?

Along with three Spidey and His Amazing Friends , another nine Super Hero themed sets will be releasing on the 1st of January 2026 from the ever-popular LEGO Marvel theme. The first of many waves for the licensed theme consists of small, pocket money builds such as 76335 Ghost Rider Bike and 76337 Miles Morales Mech, along with another 18+ display model of 76344 Buildable Iron Man. The Winter 2026 wave even consists of a more accessible Daily Bugle coming under the set number 76342. 76334 Spider-Man vs Sandman Sam Raimi's Spider-Man returned to brick-built LEGO form earlier this year with 76321 Spider-Man VS Doc Ock Subway Train Scene , and now we can expect another set from the trilogy. In particular, this will be 76334 Spider-Man vs Sandman, which looks to recreate a small brick-built battle between Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man and a brick-built shape-shifting Sandman. Set Name - Spider-Man vs Sandman Set Number - 76334 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 201 Price - $24.99 / €24.99 / £21.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76335 Ghost Rider Bike The cheapest and smallest set of the wave is 76335 Ghost Rider Bike with just 72 pieces retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. The main build of the 6+ set will be a streamlined, fiery motorcycle build for Ghost Rider, who will reappear as a LEGO Minifigure in 76335. Set Name - Ghost Rider Bike Set Number - 76335 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 72 Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76336 Venomized Wolverine with Spider-Man Car The LEGO Group have recently been obsessed with venomized versions of iconic superheroes, villains and Marvel vehicles, and this trend continues with 76336. The 7+ model recreates another brick-built Spider-Man Car along with a venomized Minifigure of Wolverine. A comic-based Spider-Man will likely also be included as a Minifigure along with 134 pieces retailing for a total of $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99. Set Name - Venomized Wolverine with Spider-Man Car Set Number - 76336 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 134 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76337 Miles Morales Mech It can't be a brand new wave of LEGO Marvel sets without another new brick-built Mech. This time it'll be a LEGO mech belonging to Miles Morales of 76337, which retails for $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.99 with 135 pieces included. We expect a fully posable black and red mech styled around Miles' colours and include space to place a Miles Morales Minifigure, which will also be included in the 6+ set. Set Name - Miles Morales Mech Set Number - 76337 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 135 Price - $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76338 Spider-Man & Doc Ock Mech Battle Next year, it'll be just under 4 years since our last Spider-Man and Doc Ock Mech, and clearly LEGO feel it's time for another iteration with 76338 Spider-Man & Doc Ock Mech Battle. This time, however, the 6+ model will include 315 pieces, retailing for $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99, and will feature a total of three LEGO Minifigures : Spider-Man, Spider-Gwen, and Doc Ock. Set Name - Spider-Man & Doc Ock Mech Battle Set Number - 76338 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 315 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76341 Buildable Groot Along with mechs and venomized, the LEGO Marvel designers love a brick-built version of Groot, starting with 2022's 76217 I am Groot . In 2026, another entirely brick-built interpretation of the popular character will be released under the set number 76341. The 10+ model will include 604 pieces, over 100 more than the original 2022 version, and retail for $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99. Set Name - Buildable Groot Set Number - 76341 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 604 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76342 Daily Bugle With 2021's 76178 Daily Bugle scheduled to retire at the end of this year, the LEGO Group will be releasing a brand new edition of the fictional New York City tabloid newspaper. The January 2026 model will be much smaller and more accessible, with 781 pieces retailing for $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99, making it a similar size and scale to this year's 76324 Spider-Man VS Oscorp . Set Name - Daily Bugle Set Number - 76342 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 781 Price - $99.99 / €99.99 / £89.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76343 Hulkbuster With 413 pieces retailing for $49.99 / €49.99 / £44.99, 76343 will be the latest LEGO Hulkbuster, built in a medium-sized scale and likely larger and more detailed than the most recent brick-built version of 2023's 76247 The Hulkbuster : The Battle of Wakanda. In the 9+ model, we can expect plenty of articulation, a cockpit for an Iron Man Minifigure, and bulked-up, detailed armour plating. Set Name - Hulkbuster Set Number - 76343 Age Range - 9+ Piece Count - 413 Price - $49.99 / €49.99 / £44.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 76344 Buildable Iron Man Last but not least is the first 18+ LEGO Marvel model for 2026: 76344 Buildable Iron Man. The set name suggests that the model's 1,297 pieces will be used to build a large-scale and highly detailed brick-built Iron Man display piece. Similar to previous LEGO brick-built characters, the $130 model will include a fully posable body, intricate armour detailing, one or two Minifigures and a display stand and printed information plaque. Set Name - Buildable Iron Man Set Number - 76344 Age Range - 18+ Piece Count - 1,297 Price - $129.99 / €119.99 / £109.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 All nine of these LEGO Marvel sets are rumoured to be releasing on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

The 25th of October 2025 marks 16 years since the sheep was first revealed in Minecraft, and to mark the occasion, the LEGO Group have officially revealed the next wave of sets based on the blocky video game. In particular, a total of eight LEGO Minecraft sets have been presented, all releasing on the 1st of January 2026. Another eight models are also expected to be released throughout the rest of the new year, including two more in March. 21583 Steve's Taiga Adventure Our first set is the standard entry-level set with 21583 Steve's Taiga Adventure retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. As the name suggests, the 79-piece model will recreate a very small section of the Taiga biome, covered with snow and including a distinctive spruce tree. The build may be small, but for the price, we get a lot of mobs: Steve is included as a LEGO Minifigure along with a Creeper, a fox and a baby bunny. Set Name - Steve's Taiga Adventure Set Number - 21583 Age Range - 6+ Piece Count - 79 Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21584 Nether & End Portal Journey 21584 is basically a two-in-one adventure, split between two dimensions. The 7+ model only includes 192 pieces retailing for $14.99 / €14.99 / £12.99, but builders are able to recreate both the End Portal and the Nether Portal. These two iconic in-game structures include a small biome section each, along with an Enderan, a baby hoglin and a Cool Hero Minifigure skin.

This time, 233 pieces are used to recreate a small farm and brick-built coop shaped exactly like a chicken with moveable wings and a pen at the front with an opening gate. The 7+ model is very much a modern version of 2018's 21140 The Chicken Coop, complete with a Chicken Fan Minifigure skin, a fox, a baby zombie and multiple chickens. Set Name - Chicken Farm Set Number - 21585 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 233 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21586 The Pale Garden One of Minecraft's newest biomes has already been recreated in brick-built LEGO form with 21586 The Pale Garden, which includes 243 pieces retailing for $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99. The 7+ build is a very unique and interesting set for the theme, as it recreates the monochromatic colour scheme and aesthetic inspired by horror films seen in the in-game biome. The Creaking is one of many creatures that inhabit the Pale Garden and is included here along with a winged Mothman LEGO Minifigure . Set Name - The Pale Garden Set Number - 21586 Age Range - 7+ Piece Count - 243 Price - $19.99 / €19.99 / £17.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21587 Zombie Dungeon 21587 Zombie Dungeon is a classic LEGO Minecraft  build, recreating a cobblestone and mossy-brick dungeon swarming with Zombies. At the centre of the brick-built dungeon is a zombie spawner which spawns a total of three Zombies, including one with enchanted leggings. Above the dungeon, we have a small section of the desert biome, allowing space for our adventurous LEGO Minifigure , Wastelands Wanderer, to start mining. Set Name - Zombie Dungeon Set Number - 21587 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 284 Price - $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21588 The Fox Following on from last year's 21276 The Creeper , another entirely brick-built mob is releasing on the 1st of January 2026: 21588 The Fox. This Winter wave seems to be full of the fox mob, which finally gets an updated for its head mould and appears here as a brick-built figure, retailing for $39.99 / €44.99 / £39.99 and includes a total of 497 pieces. Set Name - The Fox Set Number - 21588 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 497 Price - $39.99 / €44.99 / £39.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21589 Mini Biomes Similar to 2024's 21265 The Crafting Table , 21589 Mini Biomes is more of a display model, recreating a diverse range of Minecraft biomes in microscale form. The biomes include a mountainous cave scene with a waterfall flowing through it, a birch forest, a mushroom field, a desert complete with our first LEGO Minecraft  desert temple and a savanna complete with a pillager outpost. The 12+ model includes 797 pieces retailing for $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99. Set Name - Mini Biomes Set Number - 21589 Age Range - 12+ Piece Count - 797 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21590 Wither Battle Last but not least is the most expensive set of the wave and the most action-packed: 21590 Wither Battle. The 8+ set recreates an exciting battle, based in the warped forest biome and includes a Nether portal, a hidden wither and finally an actual Wither. The rest of the 494 pieces include a Crimson Warrior Minifigure skin, two wither skeletons, a strider, and a magma cube. Set Name - Wither Battle Set Number - 21590 Age Range - 8+ Piece Count - 494 Price - $64.99 / €64.99 / £59.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 All eight of these LEGO Minecraft  sets are releasing on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

2026 will mark 14 years since we first saw Minecraft in brick-built LEGO form, initially under the LEGO Ideas brand as a micro-scale recreation of a small Minecraft world. But from 2014, LEGO Minecraft became a fully fledged theme, focusing on Minifigure-scale models alongside a couple of brick-built mobs and characters and even a couple of returning micro-scale sets. And the latest LEGO Minecraft micro-scale throwback set is releasing on the 1st of January 2026 with 21589 Mini Biomes. The 12+ model includes a total of 797 pieces retailing for just $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99. The 2026 model is somewhat similar to 2024's 21265 The Crafting Table , but this time acting as a panorama of a mini LEGO Minecraft world. Thanks to leaked images from Smyths Toy Superstores, we have our first look at the diverse range of biomes included in the set, along with five brick-built micro characters from the popular video game: Stever, a Creeper, a Mooshroom Cow, a Husk, and a Pillager. Each character comes with a corresponding micro-scale biome, built on a 6x6 plate, which can be easily removed from the overall black display stand of the set. The biomes include a mountainous cave scene with a waterfall flowing through it, a birch forest, a mushroom field, a desert complete with our first LEGO Minecraft desert temple and a savanna complete with a pillager outpost. With each brick-built biome scene, we also get either a small underground cave section or an underwater scene. This makes the build literally replicate a Minecraft world from top to bottom. A simple background is also attached to the black display stand of the 12+ model. This can be flipped to basically display the whole in-game process of the sun setting - starting with the blue-cloud filled sky to the beautiful orange, pink and red colours and finishing with the dark but star-filled night sky. 21589 Mini Biomes Set Name - Mini Biomes Set Number - 21589 Age Range - 12+ Piece Count - 797 Price - $59.99 / €59.99 / £54.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 21589 Mini Biomes releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think? Will you be purchasing 21589 Mini Biomes in a few months time? What do you make of the leaked micro-scale build? Which of the mini brick-built biomes are you looking forward to building the most?

The Upside Down returned to brick-built LEGO form earlier this month with the release of 40801 Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will Figures , and thanks to the most recent leak, it's not just BrickHeadz that will be releasing based on the popular Netflix show. In fact, we'll be getting our first LEGO Stranger Things Minifigures set since 2019 with the release of 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House on the 1st of January 2026. The LEGO Icons branded model will be the most extensive Stranger Things set yet, with 2,593 pieces retailing for $299.99 / €299.99 / £269.99. A larger and, unfortunately, much more expensive set than 75810 The Upside Down, which retailed for just $200. As previously mentioned, the 2026 model has already leaked online thanks to the German webshop Thalia, giving us our first glimpse of hidden references, details, Minifigures and a couple of cheeky spoilers for the upcoming fifth and final season. The 18+ build recreates the run-down mansion known as the Creel House, formerly belonging to the Creel family and acting as the location where Henry Creel (aka Vecna) first developed his dark powers. The house played a crucial role in the fourth series of the Netflix show, but once again returns for the final series as 11370 is entirely based on Season 5 and the upcoming epic finale to the whole show. The Creel House is built as a dark blue facade with white window frames, and a black roof. Further details can be found in white, along with wooden planks covering the building and its windows, which were originally built back in 1882. The front porch area includes the steps leading up to the house and the iconic rose glass on the door, along with some foliage, a white lampost and a small post box. The house expands across multiple stories and includes a detailed packed interior, even though we're yet to get an official look at this. One of the main play features of the $300 set is to basically pull the house apart to reveal Vecna's 'Mind Lair', where he keeps his victims imprisoned. Plenty of hinge connections and technic pieces are included to create this effect and reveal further brick-built elements, such as the staircase and the large grandfather clock from season 4. Further elements that can be pulled apart include the two thin trees at either side of the model. Here we can also find further side builds, including a bike, a red and black car and the blue WSQK van, which is likely to play a big part in the upcoming season of the show. Finally, 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House includes a total of 13 new and exclusive Stranger Things LEGO Minifigures .

The cluttered, treasure-filled attic belonging to the Walsh family is built on a brown plate, replicating wooden floorboards. Tan coloured walls can be found on either side of the model, with the right wall being at an angle to replicate and low-height attic. In front of these walls are a variety of brick-built objects and details from the popular 1980s movie.

2025 has very much been the year for some epic, family-friendly racing games, initially with Mario Kart World and more recently with Sonic Racing: CrossWorld. The LEGO Group have already produced plenty of sets based on the Mario Kart series, but in 2026, the Danes will be shifting their focus to the kart racing game belonging to our favourite blue hedgehog. A total of two sets will be released on the 1st of January 2026 based on Sonic Racing: CrossWorld. These are 77117 Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning and 77118 Silver's Car vs Knuckles' Monster Truck, with the latter of the two sets being the focus of today's article. The 8+ model is the more expensive of the two January 2026 sets, with a total of 378 pieces included, retailing for $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99. As the name suggests, the set features two brick-built vehicles from the CrossWorlds universe, which both reflect their respective characters' unique traits. Silver's Car, also known as the Neo Lightron, is built for speed with a very curvy, futuristic look, coloured mainly Silver. The car is roughly the same size as Sonic's Speedster Lightning, with enough space to fit a single Minifigure in the cockpit of an exclusive Silver the Hedgehog. Meanwhile, Knuckles' Monster Truck is bulkier and built for power. In its red colour scheme, the vehicle includes large, oversized wheels attached to a raised chassis. Wheel covers with spikes can be found on top of the LEGO wheel elements, giving the monster truck an even more powerful and somewhat rugged look. Once again, this LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog vehicle has room for just a single LEGO Minifigure of the returning Knuckles. For $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99, a couple of side builds and accessories are also included alongside the two race cars. A few more Chaos Emeralds are included to go along with the single emerald found in 77117 Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning. There's also a starting light and a toolbox allowing builders to create an action-packed race complete with the start and finishing sequence and high-speed pit stops. 77118 Silver's Car vs Knuckles' Monster Truck Set Name - Silver's Car vs Knuckles' Monster Truck Set Number - 77118 Age Range- 8+ Piece Count - 378 Price - $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 77118 Silver's Car vs Knuckles' Monster Truck releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

With the fifth and final Stranger Things series releasing later this year, LEGO are jumping on the hype train with the release of a brand new LEGO Stranger Things set. Unfortunately, the Stranger Things-branded model is another LEGO BrickHeadz set introducing Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will to the entirely brick-built and blocky theme. The four-pack BrickHeadz model releases on the 1st October 2025, retailing for $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 with 542 pieces included. All four of the male Stranger Things characters are based on their appearances in the first Season of the popular Netflix show. Mike Wheeler is wearing his signature polo shirt with a kahaki jacket. His long, brown, plaited hair covers most of the LEGO BrickHeadz head, with an accessory of a small black walkie-talkie also included. Will Byers has even more brown pieces covering his head, perfectly recreating the character who's wearing his red, yellow and blue puffer coat. A fan favourite character is Dustin Henderson, and he's included in 40801 wearing his iconic two-tone trucker cap in red, white and blue. This is placed on top of his curly hair along with a brick-built headset microphone. Last but not least is Lucas Sincliar, included in his red jacket, printed headband and two accessories of a catapult and some binoculars attached to his torso. 40801 Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will Figures Set Name - Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will Figures Set Number - 40801 Age Range - 10+ Piece Count - 542 Price - $39.99 / €39.99 / £34.99 Release Date - 1st October 2025 40801 Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will Figures releases on the 1st of October 2025, but what do you think?

Following the LEGO Super Mario theme, delving into the franchise's racing series, the LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog line will also focus on the blue hedgehog's high-speed vehicle adventures. In particular, on the 1st of January 2026, a total of two LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog sets will be released based on the recently launched Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds arcade game. The first of these is the focus of today's article: 77117 Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning. The 6+ model will be one of the smallest LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog -branded sets yet, with just 126 pieces retailing for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. Therefore, the build will be a small but compact Minifigure-scale version of Sonic's Speedster Lightning car, which is the hedgehog's signature car in the latest Sonic Racing videogame. The brick-built LEGO version of the Speedster will capture the sleek, aerodynamic shaping of the vehicle in its classic blue and white colour scheme. Red rims are also included on the car, along with a hinged hood which cleverly hides a Chaos Emerald as Sonic sets off on a quest for the Golden Ring. A single LEGO Minifigure of Sonic is also included in the $10 set, and he comes with a mischievous facial expression on his usual specialised headpiece. 77117 Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning Set Name - Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning Set Number - 77117 Age Range- 6+ Piece Count - 126 Price - $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99 Release Date - 1st January 2026 77117 Sonic's Car: Speedster Lightning releases on the 1st of January 2026, but what do you think?

Every LEGO master builder knows the frustration: standard baseplates can be flimsy, limiting or just too small for your grand ideas. That's where Slab Dream Lab comes in. Founded by Lyle Thompson in Athens, Georgia, this innovative brick-based company has transformed a simple basement project into a nationally recognised business, offering high-quality, durable LEGO baseplates that bring bigger and bolder creations to life. Slab Dream Lab first began in 2012 when Lyle's nine-year-old son wanted a 2x4 tabletop for his stop-motion LEGO animations. After ages of searching, Lyle could not find a table to fit his son's brick-building needs, whilst also discovering the flaws in the current LEGO baseplate system, particularly for taking brick-built cities and fantasy worlds to the next level. With this setback, Lyle took a few trips to Lowe's, got his wallet out and created a makeshift LEGO table. At the time, it may have been nothing special, but this innovation and creativity sparked the idea for the fully fledged business we know and love, Slab Dream Lab. What started as a basement project quickly and very successfully evolved. Lyle faced challenges scaling production, adapting home-grown equipment, and ensuring each baseplate met the high standards LEGO builders expect. Today, Slab Dream Lab is a go-to brand for avid LEGO builders old and young, schools and educational institutions, and even major organisations like Coca-Cola and IBM. How Slab Dream Lab Baseplates Work Slab Dream Lab has reimagined the humble LEGO baseplate, which was first introduced in Europe back in 1964. With a particular emphasis on building anything you can imagine, here's what makes Slab Dream Lab's baseplates stand out: Durable and Stable: Thicker and more rigid than standard baseplates, Slab Dream Lab's plates support the largest and most imaginative of LEGO builds. Modular Design: The patented Dream Title tongue-and-groove edges allow multiple plates to interlock seamlessly. Variety of Sizes and Designs: From smaller SLAB Lite panels to massive wall-length baseplates for large projects, there's a Slab Dream Lab Baseplate for every build and idea. And you can even purchase baseplates with vibrant colours and custom graphics to add further creativity to your epic builds. Education-Friendly: Education is a critical part of Slab Dream Lab's business strategy, resulting in their precisely crafted basplates being perfect for classrooms and STEM programs, helping students develop motor skills, cognitive flexibility and creativity. Whether you're building in your living room, a classroom, or creating large-scale displays, Slab Dream Lab plates provide the flexibility to bring your vision to life. Technology & Innovation Meet Bricks Along with offering baseplates of all shapes and sizes, Slab Dream Lab is also embracing the latest technology within the brick-building sector. The business's Designer app allows users to upload images to create custom baseplates of various designs and sizes. The app has become a crucial component of the Slab Dream Lab for CEO and founder Lyle Thompson, as it acts as the perfect complement to the hands-on LEGO experience. Collaborations & International Reach From humble beginnings as a basement project, Slab Dream Lab has grown phenomenally over the last decade. Some of the organisation's most recent highlights include: Walmart: Slab Dream Labs products are now available in over 3,000 stores, providing builders worldwide with access to their customisable and highly durable baseplates. Corporate projects: Exciting partnerships with Coca-Cola and IBM have brought Slab Dream Lab's designs into custom, large-scale installations, further demonstrating the wide demand for businesses' custom baseplates. Art and museum collaborations: Slab Dream Lab's baseplates have featured in exhibitions and hotel designs, showing the versatility and customisability of the products. These milestones have not only boosted the company's visibility but also challenged Lyle and his ambitions to team to continue to innovate and scale operations rapidly to meet an ever-expanding brick-building community. Supporting Education Through Play Education is a core focus for Slab Dream Lab. Their baseplates are being used in classrooms across the US, supporting hands-on STEM projects and enhancing cognitive development in the youngest of learners and LEGO builders. The versatile, durable plates are bringing less to life in ways that spark curiosity and creativity, ensuring the next generation continues to grow and gain a deeper understanding of the world around them through LEGO. Slab Dream Lab isn't just about baseplates, it's also about giving builders of all ages to dream bigger than ever before by utilising easy-to-assemble and highly durable plates. The brand supports imagination, experimentation and creative growth and continues to be an inspiration to LEGO fans and business entrepreneurs in America and across the world. Lyle and his team have done a fantastic job of creating Slab Dream Lab, but this is just the beginning of their journey...

From staple brands such as Star Wars and Harry Potter to new licenses such as Transformers and Stranger Things, the LEGO BrickHeadz theme has had another action-packed 12 months, but in 2026, the theme gets another huge year. This is because, thanks to the ever-reliable Brick Tap Discord server, a list of several new and returning licenses is rumoured to be making their way into the blocky, collectable series of BrickHeadz. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles It's been over a decade since we last saw the entertainment franchise first created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, but in 2026, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles return to brick-built LEGO form. Similar to Looney Tunes, for example, this looks to be the one and only Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-based set coming next year, but with the LEGO Icons theme continuing to expand its portfolio, who knows what the future may hold... In the meantime, current reports suggest that a four-pack branded Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles LEGO BrickHeadz will be releasing at some point in 2026. Obviously, this points towards the four anthropomorphic turtle brothers of Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo, each brick-built and displayed on the classic black display stand of BrickHeadz figures. Gremlins The Gremlins franchise has just made its debut in brick-built LEGO form with the LEGO Ideas set of 21361 Gremlins: Gizmo , but will very quickly be returning in 2026. This time, we'll see a character from the 1984 American black comedy horror in BrickHeadz form, and it will most likely once again be Gizmo. The immortal Mogwai will be a lot cheaper and smaller but still just as expressive, kind and adorable as the characters' movie counterpart. Monsters Inc. Monsters Inc. is a rare Disney Pixar movie to have never been covered by the Danish toy manufacturers before. However, all that will be changing in 2026, starting with at least one LEGO BrickHeadz set based on the popular animated film. We expect the two main characters of Mike and Sulley, along with possibly the main antagonist, Randall Boggs, and Boo, who accidentally gets into the monster world. Angel from Stitch With the recent release of the live-action Lilo & Stitch film, the cute and mischievous Stitch has never been more popular, and so it's no surprise that a brand new LEGO BrickHeadz model based on the franchise will be released next year. This time, we'll see a blocky brick-built version of Stitch's girlfriend, Angel, with her iconic pink look and long antennas. Spider-Man We all know how much LEGO loves Spider-Man, and with the toy brand's recent focus on the Spider-Verse films, it's no surprise that we'll be getting another Spider-Man BrickHeadz figure in 2026. Exactly which Spider-Man, from what movie or comic, is currently unknown. There's also the possibility that Spider-Man refers to a character from one of the movies or comics, for example, the likes of Green Goblin or Sandman, which have become iconic villains from the franchise. Pokémon And finally, perhaps the biggest headline of all on this list is the fact that LEGO Pokémon is also set to be taking over the LEGO BrickHeadz line of sets. It's already rumoured that a large-scale version of Pikachu will be releasing next year, and now we can also expect a much smaller BrickHeadz version to be available in a few months. The likes of Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle will likely also follow suit in this brick-built form. Those are the current rumours for the LEGO BrickHeadz theme in 2026, but what do you think? Which license are you looking forward to the most? What characters do you want to see from each of these franchises in brick-built LEGO form? What other LEGO BrickHeadz sets are you looking forward to in 2026? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.
