German toy retailer JB Spielwaren has also shared product images of the upcoming LEGO Ninjago Summer sets. At least nine new products will hit store shelves in June, with probably some polybags or gift sets to follow. As usual, each new wave explores new bold designs and brings a ton of minifigures for battle scenes. Check out all the new sets down below.
German toy retailer Taschengelddieb has just published the first official product picture of the next LEGO ART set, 31206 Rolling Stones.

Other regional prices are yet to be announced.
According to the product images revealed by German toy-retailer JB Speilwaren, this summer LEGO City is revisiting local farms — and it’s all about fresh and healthy produce. Four new sets ranging from a tiny one to a solid city building, re-introduce farming with lots of new animal figures. There is a bunch of highlights, with one being a full-size grocery store.
Official product pictures of the first two LEGO Creator summer sets were published by German online retailer JB Spielwaren. The sets continue the sub-themes introduced earlier, with the 31131 Downtown Noodle Shop being an excellent addition to the modular street on budget, while the 31132 Viking Ship is yet another homage to old LEGO original themes. Both sets are slated for June 1, priced at EUR 44,99 and EUR 119,99 respectively. More regional prices are to follow.
Yet another surprise in today’s avalanche of summer LEGO sets is 40560 Professors of Hogwarts that appeared in the LEGO online shop. A pack of four characters in the format of BrickHeadz adds Professors Snape, McGonagall, Moody, and Trelawny to the collection. The set will go perfectly with other characters, like Albus Dumbledore from LEGO BrickHeadz 41621 set or less friendly-looking characters like Voldemort and Bellatrix from set 40496. The new pack will retail for US $39.99 | UK £39.99 but the release date is yet to be announced.
The recently unveiled LEGO City 60336 Freight Train is joined today by two more train-themed sets that appeared on LEGO.com. As a tradition, the cargo train is accompanied by the new 60337 Passenger Express Train. Additionally, the city is finally getting the new station building in the form of the 60335 Train station set. Although based on the existing train system, the sets bring a lot of new play scenarios, with other City sub-themes introduced here and there. All three sets will go on sale on June 1, with prices to be confirmed shortly.
The next LEGO buildable character, Baby Groot, was revealed online just now. Arguably the cutest Marvel superhero stands over 10.5 in. (26 cm) tall, which is just a couple inches taller than another fan-favorite alien, Baby Yoda from 75318 set. The scene wouldn’t be complete without an iconic accessory from the Guardians of the Galaxy stories, so Groot comes with a 1:1 cassette build. Right now the set is available for pre-order for US $54.99 | CAN $69.99 | UK £44.99 and will ship from August 1, 2022.
