LEGO April 2026 Shopping Guide

March 25, 2026 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There’s only a few days left in March and now is a good time to release the April 2026 shopping guide. It’s not a big month for new releases but there are some fan favorites including the LEGO Icons Douglas DC‑3 PAN AM Airliner (11378) and the LEGO Ideas Tintin Moon Rocket (21367). There are also some new Star Wars releases for The Mandalorian & Grogu but those won’t be out until the end of the month. For the gift with purchase sets, LEGO is still close-lipped about what we could be getting but those details should be coming soon, hopefully.

LEGO Fan Compass Survey Wants Your Feedback

March 25, 2026 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has opened up a new fan survey called the LEGO Fan Compass where you can help give feedback on your role in the hobby.

The LEGO Deep Fandom Team wants you feedback on how your relationship is with LEGO and how you see the company as well as the fan community. One of the more interesting questions is how would you describe your energy of the LEGO community specifically. Right now, I’ve seen more negativity online regarding LEGO, whether it be about the higher prices or the products that have been put out recently.

Another interesting question is about the blank check one where you can really make your voices heard. LEGO is literally asking you what you would fix or evolve that’s been stagnant in a decade.

If you had a blank check of time and resources to ‘fix’ or ‘evolve’ one specific part of the LEGO hobby that hasn’t changed in a decade, what would it be and why?

The LEGO Fan Compass will be open until April 30 and it takes about 10 minutes to complete.

At the LEGO Group, the best part of what we do is the community that builds alongside us.
We’re exploring new ways to really listen to you, and your feedback is a vital piece of the puzzle. We want to hear about your individual LEGO journey; what inspires you, what you enjoy, and where you think the hobby could grow. While we’d love for you to share this survey with your friends and fellow fans, please

March 20, 2026 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO and BrickLink have announced the five finalists for the BrickLink Designer Program Series 10. From April 1 – January 4, 2027, BrickLink will be refining the designs to meet certain conditions before locking in the designs for pre-production. Crowdfunding for these sets will start shortly after in February 2027. Each set must have 3,000 pre-orders to be produced with a guaranteed 30,000 limit. BrickLink did make a change a few series ago where they can shift extra production to allocate more sets to another model if demand is lower for one.
