LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331) Free Alternate Building Instructions

The LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331) has been out for a week now and fan designer Viv Grannell, a.k.a. toastergrl, has released some free alternate building instructions for the set. The first of a few alternate builds is for Dr. Eggman which gives him some articulation and aesthetic adjustments. These modifications also sacrifices some stability in exchange.

Toastergrl also notes that there will be additional free instructions for alternate Green Hill Zone modules and Badniks from a second copy of the set which will be dropping later this month.

BrickLink Designer Program Sheriff’s Safe (910016) Design Issue

For those who purchased the BrickLink Designer Program Sheriff’s Safe (910016), there is a design issue with the set that you need to be aware of. The fan designer has noted that LEGO/BrickLink has decided to change one of the required Technic pins which makes the locking mechanism not work on the set which is a major problem since that’s the point of a safe, to lock things up.

Included in the set are 10x 32002 1 1/2 M CONNECTING BUSH but you actually need 4274 CONNECTOR PEG W. KNOB. If you’ve built any LEGO set that has pins, you most likely will have some spare pieces laying around but you may want to contact LEGO Customer Service and explain what happened to get them replaced. I haven’t received my set yet but hopefully it is fixed before it ships out.

IMPORTANT – SHERIFF’s SAFE OWNERS PLEASE READ There’s a small but fatal mistake in the building instructions, that makes the lock NOT work. See the attached image for instructions on how to fix this! It’s caused by 10x Technic 3/4 pins (32002) in the lock mechanism. These were suppose to be Technic 1/2 pins (4274), but for some reason Bricklink has replaced them. I will contact Bricklink and urge them to correct this mistake. To be continued…

LEGO Ideas Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331) Officially Announced

LEGO has officially revealed the next LEGO Ideas set to be released with the Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone (21331). Releasing on January 1, the set has 1,125 pieces and will retail for $69.99/£59.99/€69.99/119.9 AUD/89.99 CAD.

The original idea by Viv Grannell was supposed to be based on Sonic Mania’s version of the Green Hill Zone but instead we’re getting the original Sonic version of the stage. The main difference here is the original project had the Death Egg Robot which is the mech but instead, the set includes the Egg Wrecker. I’m not sure why the change as fans voted for Sonic Mania and not the Sonic 1 but I guess Sonic Mania isn’t as well known as the original.

Note that the set includes some pins on the side so you can get multiples of the set and add on to it to create a large Green Hill Zone. Also, the Sonic minifigure has been slightly updated from 2016.
