LEGO's WEIRD New Music Theme REVEALED

Minty Take

Editions started as a sports platform: golfers, footballers, F1 drivers. Five sets for one pop star, plus a first-ever Botanicals crossover, reads as a pivot toward cultural reach over pure athletics. The real test is whether music fans buy display pieces the way sports fans have, a different purchase behavior LEGO hasn't proven yet.

LEGO Ideas Review Stage Hits 33 Projects After New Wave of Approvals

LEGO Ideas' second 2026 review stage keeps growing: 33 projects have now cleared the 10,000-supporter threshold, with the latest additions ranging from a towering fire-themed build to a Christmas snow globe collection, an upside-down bookstore, a carousel music box, and a Billie Eilish set. The range says plenty about who's submitting these days.

LEGO Ideas June 28 Update

Minty Take

Thirty-three projects clearing the bar for one review window is a lot of competition for a handful of approval slots, and the range on offer (snow globes, a Billie Eilish set, an upside-down bookstore) shows just how broad the community's taste runs. Whichever the panel picks will say more about LEGO's appetite than the fans'.

LEGO Ideas Launches Hidden Secrets Contest for Next GWP

LEGO Ideas wants its next gift-with-purchase to hide something. The new Hidden Secrets challenge caps entries at 250 pieces and asks builders to bury a findable surprise inside, whether that's a puzzle mechanism or something hidden in plain sight. The winning concept becomes a future GWP, following the format of past Ideas-driven freebies.

LEGO Ideas Hidden Secrets Building Contest for Future GWP

Minty Take

Crowdsourcing GWP designs is a smart trick: LEGO gets community goodwill and a built-in audience excited to spot the secret, at a fraction of the cost of an internal design sprint. The 250-piece cap and puzzle requirement also force more inventive small-scale design than the average promotional freebie.
