LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions

Amazon has kicked off their Save $10 when you spend $50 promotion again with some new LEGO sets added to the list. Most of the items have already been discounted 20% but you can save even more when you buy more. be sure to check the end of the list for some of the newer stuff that has been added including the LEGO Hidden Side Jack’s Beach Buggy (70428).
The LEGO Group’s commitment to reducing its carbon emissions has been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative. The goal of reducing the absolute carbon emissions by 37% by 2032 is consistent with the Paris Agreement’s goal of keeping global warming below 1.5°C. You can read more about it below.

The company commits to a new carbon emission reduction target in line with the Paris Agreement’s most ambitious 1.5°C trajectory
Cartoon image of a factory and a tree shaking handsToday, the LEGO Group has committed to reducing its absolute carbon emissions by 37% by 2032 to ensure the company plays its part in limiting the effects of climate change. The target has been approved by the Science Based Target initiative as consistent with levels required to keep global warming to below 1.5°C, the most ambitious goal of the Paris Agreement.
The company’s target covers emissions from its own operations which equates to 10% of total emissions and includes energy use in its factories, offices and stores, and from its supply chain which equates to 90% of emissions including areas such as raw materials and distribution.
Tim Brooks, VP, Environmental Responsibility, said: “Climate change poses one of the biggest risks to society and the planet that our children will inherit. We are committed to building a better planet for future generations and that means stepping up efforts to reduce carbon emissions across our entire value chain.”
To achieve this target, the LEGO Group will:

LEGO has been working more and more with BrickLink, whom they’ve acquired late last year, and putting in resources to help both companies. Recently, they have released a survey asking LEGO fans if they are members of BrickLink and know about LEGO Ideas.
Help us realize more fan creations!
The LEGO Group and BrickLink want to realize more fan creations for the Adult Fan of LEGO (AFOL) community.
As part of this, we are investigating opportunities that the AFOL community has brought forward to see if there’s actually an appetite for these kinds of ideas and to investigate its feasibility.
Please help us by filling out this explorative survey. It shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes to complete. Your participation matters greatly because it improves our ability to do more for you, whether you are a BrickLink seller, buyer, fan designer, or any combination of them!
In the blurb, they state that both companies want to realize more fan creations for AFOLs and are looking at opportunities to do that. From the looks of what they are asking, it seems that they could be bringing some LEGO Ideas projects to BrickLink, referring to the projects that did not pass the review stage.
Let’s say that a project you voted for was not seleceted for production by the LEGO Group. How would you feel if the project was realized through the BrickLink site instead?
Since the support is already there for the most part in terms of the number of supporters achieved for a particular project, BrickLink … Continue
LEGO is again offering an older gift-with-purchase promotional item again for those who missed it the first time around. This time, they are offering the LEGO Star Wars Battle of Endor – 20th Anniversary Edition (40362) with purchases of $75 or more on LEGO Star Wars sets. This is the same promo as the Triple Force Friday event from last year. You’ll also get the free 2020 Holiday Gift Set (5006482) with your order as well.
If you saw yesterday, the new January-May 2021 LEGO Catalog was released and one of the pages showed the Series 21 LEGO Collectible Minifigures. On the bottom right corner it also shows a new series will be out in May.
Way back in August, we reported that there was a rumor that there could be a LEGO Looney Tunes Collectible Minifigures coming out next year. I’m not sure where but I’ve recently heard somewhere that this wave could be based on Space Jam: A New Legacy which is the new movie that features LeBron James and other newer NBA and WNBA stars. It also includes some Looney Tunes characters including Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety, Pepe Le Pew, Marvin the Martian, Lola Bunny, Porky Pig, Sylvester, Foghorn Leghorn, and Yosemite Sam. If LEGO continues the 12 minifigures per wave, that’s already 10 of them. We can probably throw in Elmer Fudd and the Tasmanian Devil as the last two since they were in the first Space Jam.
Of course, this is purely a rumor and we really don’t know what LEGO has in store for this wave coming out in May. Note that Space Jam 2 comes out in July and marketing for the movie will have probably started by then.
If you’re a student, there’s a LEGO promotion over on Student Beans that you may be interested in. They are offering the LEGO Ideas Space Rocket Ride (40335) with purchases of $130 or more through Student Beans. You’ll get a student discount code to use at checkout on the LEGO Shop. This promo runs until December 31. Thanks to Chris for the heads up.
