As a LEGO set designer for Elves, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Zelda, and Wicked, it’s fair to say that Wes Talbott knows a thing or two about bringing fantasy to life at minifig scale. Last year, the builder’s Fire Breathing Fortress reimagining with Chris Perron took our breath away. Now Wes is back Continue reading →

In the quest to catch ’em all, you can only start with one. And @mitchbuildsofficial makes a great case for your first Pokémon being Charizard.

When Kimberly Giffen isn’t helping out behind the scenes at The Brothers Brick, she’s building incredible LEGO dioramas that blend ornate architecture, impeccable landscaping, and a masterful use of color. Like this cozy cottage! What’s remarkable about Kimberly’s models is how organic they feel. Structures break the grid, and a pleasing asymmetry informs every element of the scene, like the irregular brick-built water or the shaping of the weeping willow.
How do you approach a set like LEGO Star Wars 75419 Death Star? LEGO’s worst-kept secret is more than just another set for collectors.

Not every Gift With Purchase is a classic, but the Flying Moon Car from earlier this year had big nostalgia appeal with its retro space stylings. Builder Andrew Lee missed out on the offer and felt lunar remorse. Fortunately, LEGO makes the instructions freely available (here’s a link to the moon car), so Andrew had Continue reading →

On Andor Season 2, the Emperor managed to keep his “Energy Project” a secret until it was all but ready to unleash its power on Alderaan. In this galaxy, rumors of a $1000 LEGO Death Star have been floating in the fandom all year. The price seemed both impossible and inevitable. Today LEGO confirms the rumors with the reveal of LEGO Star Wars 75419 Death Star. The set is breaking several records aside from price. The most minifigures (38!). Biggest set by weight (16.3kg, 36 lbs). Most Hot Tub Stormtroopers (1). Rather than a full sphere, the design opts for an open diorama approach that allows for intricate interior scenes. Like the first Death Star playset, the newest battle station draws on both A New Hope and Return of the Jedi, while also including easter eggs from the LEGO Star Wars video games. The minifigure lineup includes Rogue One architects Galen Erso and Orson Krennic, but sadly perpetuates Geonosian erasure with no Archduke Poggle the Lesser. We’ve been toiling away like workers on Narkina 5 to assemble our own copy, and we’ll be back soon with our full review.
