3 minifigs have leaked, namely Nami, Zorro, and Arlong! They all look great!

New episode out: babysitting mishaps!

Looked like a wampa, until I realised that's not his legs but the column behind him

You're not the only one! Once upon a time this was the case. But the set it would replace on shelves had 3 factions in it (never been done before?), so it's possible!

Well, finally the instructions are done:).

And after 8 years, I've finally updated Juno Eclipse again, thanks to the new hair + cap piece courtesy of Dedra Meero:

I use the nControl Software for 4Dbrix for track layouts on my M1 Mac. They have standard tracks and even some large radius ones and special switches in their library. ALso Software has a nice snap on recognition, so you always know if layouts work on regular lego grid.

I think nobody interested in Technic would disagree. At least TLG should give us more variety in cars, not only in scale but also car types. Older cars would be way more interesting and could also boost cool features. For example big Audi Quattro from 80s with front mounted inline 5 engine and some sort of limited slip diff, Corvette convertable with retractable roof, Citroen 2CV with pneumatic suspension, .... even just a "normal" car with front mounted engine and front wheel drive would be more interesting than the 20th supercar with V8...12 engine in the back. On the bright side, we get 20+ technic sets every year now. Even when half of them are cars, we got 10 sets that are not :D

I think TLG is trying to make them easier for kids to attach or something. Besides, the vulnerability of cloth capes may not be an issue for adults, but is when it comes to children. I think it's also the reason behind printed leg Kamas. Thankfully, Lego SW didn't replace cloth capes with rubber ones (yet), like they did with Super Heroes and Harry Potter. Those now rubber capes look horrible. Disney doesn't care about me as a consumer, like, at all. I won't make any difference because, surprise surprise, I am not much of a consumer. There is nothing wrong in acquiring nice lego sets with good-looking minifigures, even if they are based on a movie I didn't like. For example, the Dark Trooper set was nice, and had pretty useful minifigures. Besides, acquiring more OT-based sets could theoretically demonstrate that those movies are well-remembered. I am looking forward to the Death Star even knowing that I can't afford buying it.

Unfortunately i dont think that is the case, very strange for Lego to leave it out, but maybe we'll get it later!

My point was less that they would keep to strict on the original, just more that both those factions would be unlikely to happen in the same set. And yes, if it would be one of them I would give the wolfpack the higher chances - with them beeing in the original set, beeing the main, but not the only reason. Forestmen were around for quite a few years now in the GWP and then in the LKC, while the Wolfpack was only around for less than two years - and if you want to get a shield, you had to hunt for the CMF.

Regarding the move from cloth to plastic, what do you all think is the reason behind this? Cloth capes are cheaper to produce. Cloth is also made of more sustainable products, not plastics or rubbers. There is neither reason nor environmental reason that I can see. Sure, the cloth stuff gets crinkled, bent or sometimes frayed. But that doesn't seem like reason enough to phase them out. My theory is they are testing the waters with rubber accessories much like they tested the ill-fated X-Wing pilot helmets. Sure, it's a much wider test in scope. But I'm wondering if they are just checked to see what consumer response is overall. If positive, they'll continue. If not, we'll get cloth back.

Again, like his later designs for Bag End, it's just too far removed from the original concept and just ends up looking like a MOC. I would rather he just reimagined the Book Nook to be fuller and more complete like the Potter and Sherlock ones.

All right, now the 3d model is done. Final piece count, 2623pcs:). And, i have upgraded the grill for the instructions version, now it uses metallic silver pieces:).

Awesome series. It's a dream come true for a huge fan of the Spider-Verse movies. Gwen looks incredible, such an upgrade over the bodega version. So does everyone though, they are all amazing. Miguel has a cool cape, and Mayday looks fantastic. Sun-Spider is kind of boring though, but the only minifigure I actually dislike is Prowler Miles. Why did they make him lavender? That looks awful.

Yet you are still here? If Star Wars was truly dead then you’d either have to be completely disinterested in the brand, or refuse to consume new content. News flash: new Lego sets themselves, even OT ones, count as new content. And if you really wanted to send Disney a message for ‘killing’ SW then you’d just stop buying their products and letting them profit, including Lego. I disagree, but that’s a respectable opinion. I’d personally keep the canon and make some alterations to keep anything before Mando S3 and canonise the HttE trilogy. Day #38 of asking for the next Tie Fighter to be a Tie Avenger. Dank ferrik Next evolution of Lego’s strategy is… Buildable clone troopers. 10 buildable clone troopers of different legions instead of play-sets a year. You may be suprised.

LEGO Technic Off Road Utility Truck (ORUT) MK2 - Standard Rear Attachment Mount Point The LEGO Technic Off Road Utility Truck (ORUT) MK2 is more than just a powerful platform—it’s designed for adaptability and real-world functionality. One of the most impactful upgrades in this iteration is the introduction of a Standard Rear Attachment Mount Point, bringing modularity to the next level. Why a Standard Mount Matters Swapping out rear attachments used to be a fiddly, time-consuming process. Each new tool or trailer required custom brackets or creative workarounds. The MK2 changes that. With the standardized mounting interface, users can quickly attach or remove modules such as cranes, slashers, mowers, ploughs, winches, or even specialized tools like post drivers or drill rigs—all without major rebuilds. Built for Flexibility The mount point is constructed using Technic pin and axle connections, with alignment guides and reinforced support beams to keep everything secure—even on rough terrain. Whether you're out hauling logs in the forest, clearing rubble from a build site, or performing roadside maintenance, the ORUT MK2 is ready to adapt in seconds. Compatibility and Futureproofing This standard mount design isn’t just for today’s attachments—it’s a foundation for future expansions. It will allow me to save parts by not having to build a new mount for each new attachment. This seemingly small design tweak makes a massive difference in everyday use. It's all about efficiency, durability, and creativity—everything the LEGO Technic community values most. Video - https://paulbtechnic.blogspot.com/2025/06/lego-technic-off-road-utility-truck.html

What a waste, especially to foal would be great to have, it looks to fit with the horse from MVR Maybe since they have the colour now it is easier to get it in another normal print later, however what set could that be included in short term?

Yes, 4 horses should be no problem for Lego to include and it was the golden standard for big Castle sets back in the they, but with only 2 in LKC I think any more is highly unlikely unfortunately Me too, I still have not got it and if it had included anything close to the prelim picture it would have been one of my favourite Lego sets of all time Talk about butchering a set with the budget cuts

As a kid I used to look at this catalog page a lot. It gave me inspiration to build a lot of Castle stuff and it is simply fantastic and very well made. I still like to look at the these kind of fantastic displays in the old catalogs. I don't understand why they stopped making these for the catalogs because people want to recreate these scenes when they see them and that means sales for Lego.

Son this feature doesn't work, or the normal servo doesn't work?

A pin with 2 pinholes would be great too.

So we have encountered a one in a million event: a non-mini scale model!

It's a big car, but it's just Batmobile-sized and we need more civilian cars in that size class to coexist with them. Since this is a villain's ride from a dark and scary piece of children's animation with an Art Deco style, it will go particularly well with the Batman: The Animated Series Batmobile from last year. I hope I can get this for half price without the minifigs, or on a good sale - I can think of several Batman villains who would love to have a sweet ride like this. Really looking forward to better pictures of the front-wheel steering, too!

I've made everything I want to make. There are no additional plans.
