If you’re a LEGO Harry Potter collector, there’s a new polybag coming out soon called Draco in the Forbidden Forest (30677). The 33 piece set features Draco in the Sorcerer’s Stone and a small part of the forest and an owl. It should be available starting on March 1 and retail for $4.99 like with other polybags unless prices have changed.
There’s a new LEGOLAND exclusive set that is now available called the Pirate Splash Battle (40710). It has 171 pieces and it recreates a small part of Pirate Shores with the boat, dock, and water cannon. Since it’s a LEGOLAND exclusive, you can only find it at the parks or their online shop counterparts.
Prepare for swashbuckling adventures with the LEGO® Pirate Splash Battle (40710) pirate toy for kids aged 7 and up. Young seafarers will love building the ship and discovering its treasure trove of details. Inspired by the iconic LEGOLAND® Pirate Ride, the set includes pretend water cannons with shooting function, letting kids recreate the fun of the real-life ride. It’s brought to life by 3 minifigures, plus shark and parrot figures and a LEGOLAND flag element.
The Wizard of Oz 85th Film Anniversary by The Wizard of Oz is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The build consists of 2,934 pieces and there are six modules featuring various scenes from the movie.
The project joins Spirited Away, Appa the Sky Bison, from Avatar the Last Airbender, Venus Flytrap, Minerals Display, Dreamworks’ Shrek’s Swamp 2, Hello Kitty and Friends – 50 Years, Dr. Seuss’s The Grinch, Medieval Tournament, Cherry Blossom Ikebana, and Roman Forum as the ones to reach the First 2024 Review Stage.
LEGO has been making Marvel mechs for a little bit now and the latest lineup is the War Machine Mech Armor (76277). The set has 154 pieces and retails for a reasonable $14.99.
LEGO over on YouTube has been doing teasers for LEGO Ninjago: Dragons Rising Season 2 and their latest one finally confirms one of the character’s origin to LEGO Legends of Chima. Lord Ras and Jordana are trekking through the Wyldness and while talking, Ras mentions that the Forever Rock is one of the regions of his land. Fans of Chima know that the Forever Rock was the place where Laval and Cragger used to play as kids while marking their game wins on the rock.
Fans have been wondering if the two themes were related and there have been questions asked during the SDCC Ninjago panels if Chima was part of Ninjago or if Ras was from Chima and it looks like we can confirm that they are canon. LEGO has done a good job with the storyline of the merged realms which allows them more flexibility to connect Ninjago to other themes. We’ve already seen that done already with LEGO DREAMZzz last year.
Earlier today, LEGO designer George Gilliatt took to X/Twitter to talk about some of the features of the upcoming LEGO Harry Potter Talking Sorting Hat (76429), including the new sound brick. You can animate the hat by pressing on top of the hat or from the bottom as well. The sound brick slots in the back of the hat and it has 31 different sounds that it can say randomly.
The Talking Sorting Hat releases on March 1 but you can pre-order today on the LEGO Shop for $99.99.
