For those who like doing the LEGO Build-a-Minifigure in-stores, LEGOLAND Japan has revealed some of the new ones that will be released in the first quarter of 2023. These were released early today in Japan but stores around the world should see them trickle in starting in January.

As usual with the Build-a-Minifigure stations, you can find parts that have been recolored or redecorated into new ones or even some exclusive parts. As you can see from the images, a lot of parts are now in colors that aren’t found in your typical sets yet.

BrickLink has announced that the BrickLink Designer Program will be returning as a permanent program as of right now. Series 1, as they dubbed it, will be similar to the Invitational back in 2021 but with some changes to support the new program. The main thing is that all sets that the five designs that get 3,000 pre-orders will be produced and up to 20,000 sets will be made. Submissions will start in about 53 days from this post. Below is the estimated timetable for what will be going on for BrickLink Designer Program Series 1.

• Crowd Support (March 7 — March 31, 2023) – We invite all BrickLink members to vote for their favorite submissions. This crowd vote weighs in alongside the BDP’s internal selection criteria and influences the designs chosen for crowdfunding.

• 5 Designs Announced (Late May 2023) – We’ll reveal the five Series 1 designs. Then we’ll collaborate with fan designers to prepare them for production.

Registration for the 2023 LEGO House Tour will be kicking off tomorrow if you’re interested in attending one of the most exclusive events that LEGO offers.

Tickets cost 20,000 DKK (~$2830) per person and price includes three overnight stays at the LEGOLAND hotel with breakfast and snacks. You also get a full year free pass to the LEGO House and a season pass to LEGOLAND. Travel costs to Billund are not included so you’ll have to factor that in to the total costs. The price did go up from last year but from everyone that I’ve talked to who attended, it’s worth the cost.

Registration starts on December 6 at 10:00am CET (1am PT/4am ET) and ends on December 9. Note that signing up doesn’t guarantee you a spot.

It’s been a while since we’ve heard about The Secret Life of LEGO Bricks crowdfunding project but it looks like there’s some good news. The books are finally shipping out to supporters and some of you may have yours delivered already. An update on one of Unbound’s posts says the rewards should be sent out with the books and everything comes in one package. I’ve already heard from people that isn’t the case.

One of the more popular rewards was the LEGO pogo stick prototype element and minifigure which is one of LEGO’s first 3D printed elements. Some people who had that reward tier didn’t get theirs in the package and only got the book. I can only say contact Unbound in this situation and see if they can fix it. Just a side note, the pogo stick proto is already going for over $1000 on the secondary market.

We’ve had this on the LEGO Ambassador Network to test out for about a month now but you can now change your username for your LEGO account. You will be able to choose a universal LEGO nickname to use instead of the random generated one that you got when you first signed up. For obvious reasons, you can’t use the word “LEGO” in it. You can read up on the full list of rules here. Goodbye SergeantTrainedZebra.
