LEGO has recently kicked off a new building contest on LEGO Ideas where the winning build will be turned into a future gift-with-purchase set. This is similar to the Moments in Space Space Rocket Ride (40335) from a few years back. The object is to build something that is related to a holiday which is the UK version of a vacation. The minimum amounts of bricks needed is 150 bricks and the max is 250. The grand prize winner will get a slew of great prizes but the best one is probably your build being an official LEGO set. The deadline to submit your entries is June 12 at 6am EST.
… ContinueYour dream holiday… What does that look like? Is it enjoying a meal with friends and family? Is it exploring coral reefs in tropical waters? In this contest, we’re asking you to come up with a small model that helps turn that holiday into THAT holiday. It could be a rowing boat to go fishing in, a picnic bench to enjoy a BBQ with. Use your own holidays or your dream holidays as inspiration!
The only restrictions are that your model should be at most 250 bricks, with a minimum of 150 bricks.
Maybe research some holidays you dream of taking, and get building!
As the Grand Prize winner of this contest you will get the exclusive opportunity to have your model transformed into a new LEGO Gift with Purchase set. On top of that, you will also receive the following:

The Mountain Windmill by Hanwasyellowfirst is the latest project to achieve 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. The build seems to be an original idea but it has a very The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild feel to it considering it is the same builder that has the BotW Stables project currently in review. It has 2,031 pieces and also includes two minifigures, the miller and village boy. This is the first project to reach the Second 2020 Review Stage.
