LEGO Ideas Home Alone (21330) Designer Video

The LEGO Ideas Home Alone (21330) was released at the beginning of the month to much delight for many fans and LEGO has just released the designer video for the set. LEGO designers Enrique Beixer and Antica Bracanov talks about some of the many details that are in the McCallister house. One little Easter egg they gave was that the set is split up into 24 bags so you can build it as an advent calendar if you like. You can read my full review of the set here.

Currently, Home Alone is temporarily sold out on the LEGO Shop but you may have some luck at your nearest LEGO Brand Store. Use the Check Store Stock option on the product page to see if your store has them in stock.

LEGO The Brick-Changer Float Returns to Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade

Two years ago, LEGO introduced The Brick-Changer float at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and it will make its return this year for those who didn’t see it. The Brick-Changer is basically part turkey and part dragon that gives families a sense of how LEGO’s colorful bricks have inspired creativity and play in kids. This year’s performer on the float is Zoe Wees and also sort of a missed opportunity for LEGO VIDIYO’s L.L.A.M.A to make an appearance.

LEGO Recycled Brick Named One of TIME’s Best Inventions of 2021

Yesterday, TIME announced the top 100 Best Inventions of 2021 and LEGO was revealed to be part of the group due to their sustainability commitment and creating the first recycled brick. Back in June, LEGO revealed the first prototype LEGO brick made from recycled plastic. The new brick uses PET plastic that used discarded bottles and it took over three years for it to meet their quality, safety and play requirements. It’ll still be a while before we see the recycled bricks in sets but it’ll make a huge impact on the environment when they start rolling out.
