Last year, LEGO released two Bricktober 2022 sets on the Rewards Center and today they have announced that the other two sets in the wave will also be coming soon. The two that will be coming are the Space Adventure Ride and Fantasy Adventure Ride. One is scheduled to be released on June 16 and the other on July 11. There’s no mentioning on which set will be released on which day yet. They are expected to cost 2,400 like with the previous ones and will come in the yellow boxes instead of the decorated ones that Asia got.
The Red Dwarf: Sleeping Quarters by BRO3 is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The 1,953 piece build features one of the main locations in the show and it also proposes five minifigures.

It has been confirmed through LEGO’s newsletter that Double VIP Points will be back starting this weekend. From June 9-13, you can earn double points on every purchase on the LEGO Shop and in stores. If you’ve been holding off on some of the newer releases like the Batcave – Shadow Box (76252), now would be the best time to get it to maximize your purchase. Double that up with Rakuten and you can also get some cash back on it as well.
The Trojan Horse by Daytona is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The 2,700 piece build features the wooden horse used by the Greeks to enter the city of Troy and win the war.
The project joins “Big Boy” Locomotive, Retro Arcade, Spartan Helmet of Leonidas, Alfa Romeo Giulietta Spider, The Muppet Show, Red Bull Racing F1 Team RB18 1:12, Scooby Doo Mystery Machine, Western River Steamboat, Dreamwork’s Shrek Swamp, Asterix & Obelix, Venice, Stilt House, and Red Bull RB18 as the ones to reach the Second 2023 Review Stage.

Priced at $99.99, the 899 piece set features 15 minifigures, four of which are some of the more recent football/soccer players such as Megan Rapinoe, Yuki Nagasato, Sam Kerr, and Asisat Oshoala.

If you didn’t see it, LEGO has offered the LEGO DC Super Heroes Bat-Pod (5004590) as a sweepstakes again in the Rewards Center. It ends on June 29 and it costs 50 VIP points per entry with a max of 50 entries. If you want to gamble for this high end set, now’s your chance as it goes for $1000-$2000 on the secondary market.
The set was introduced back in 2015 for the VIP program and you had to email LEGO for a chance to win one of 750 copies. It then dropped in the Rewards Center in 2019 for 15,000 points and that went extremely quickly.
