LEGO House Tree of Creativity (4000026) to be Discontinued

If you’ve been wanting to go to the LEGO House to pick up the exclusive Tree of Creativity (4000026) set, you may want to do so soon as LEGO has announced that it will be discontinued. The set will be available until they run out of stock so I’m assuming they don’t have a lot of inventory left. There is a special arrangement for some sets to be held back for attendees of AFOL Day in LEGO House in September.

The shelf space that is used for the set will be used for a new exclusive product that will be out in late May 2020 so stay tuned for that reveal in the next few months. Check out the press release below.

LEGO House Tree of Creativity” to discontinue

Since the opening of LEGO House it has been an important milestone to create exclusive products that relate to LEGO House and adds to the LEGO House experience for the guests. The first exclusive product launched was the LEGO House Architecture (21037) in 2017, followed by the LEGO House Tree of Creativity (4000026) in 2018, and then the LEGO House Dinosaurs (40366) in 2019.

LEGO House has now decided to discontinue the LEGO House Tree of Creativity – in order to make shelf space for a new exclusive product arriving in late May 2020.

The Tree of Creativity was originally launched as a great reproduction of the 15,6 metre tall Tree of Creativity in LEGO Square. The most iconic features were resized into the retail model. LEGO

LEGO Minifigure Creator Passes Away

In some sad news today coming out of Denmark, the original creator of the LEGO Minifigure, Jens Nygaard Knudsen, passed away a few days ago. Minifigures are some of the most popular items in LEGO sets and they have evolved throughout the 40+ years they have existed. His legacy will live on as LEGO produces many, many more minifigures in the future. Jens was 78.

LEGO at the 2020 New York Toy Fair

The 2020 New York Toy Fair kicks off later this week and LEGO will again have a presence there. I’ve been told they will only be showing off products that will be launching in the first half of the year so we won’t be seeing any of the fall/winter 2020 LEGO sets. We probably will finally see sets that were reported on from the Nuremberg Toy Fair so that’ll hold us over for now. I personally won’t be there but The Brick Fan will have a representative on hand for photographs and set details so stay tuned.

LEGO Masters Episode 2 Recap – Space Smash

The premise of the second episode of LEGO Masters is to build a space-themed story and at the end, it will be destroyed. The builds will be judged on how it looks and the story that goes around it as well as how it looks when splatters. Mayim Bialik was brought out as the guest of the episode. The main component of the judging is how the build looks when it is destroyed using a bat, explosives, and gravity. Benny’s Spaceship was dropped as a demonstration.
