Ask a Question to the LEGO Harry Potter Design Team

July 18, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO has kicked off something new over on the Reward Center where you can ask a LEGO designer a question. You’ll be able to ask a question to the LEGO Harry Potter design team of Marco Messa and graphic designer Djordje Djordjevic. The questions that are answered will be featured somewhere. No VIP points are needed, you just need to be logged in to your account.

In addition, LEGO has also quietly gave a teaser for a launch of “a very magical product” that will be coming soon. Rumor has it that it could be Diagon Alley (75978) and it will be a large scale set similar to the Hogwarts Castle (71043). The release date of this set would be in September.

Ever wanted to ask a question to a LEGO® designer? Now is your chance!

To celebrate the launch of a very magical product coming soon, we’re offering our VIPs an opportunity to ask a question to the Harry Potter™ LEGO design team (Marcos Bessa, LEGO Model Designer & Djordje Djordjevic, LEGO Graphic Designer). Submit your question today for a chance to feature in this exclusive content.

LEGO Star Wars Mos Eisley Cantina (75290) D2C Rumored to be Coming Soon

July 17, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

There’s a new rumor going around for the next LEGO Star Wars direct-to-consumer set which is reported to be the Mos Eisley Cantina (75290). Word has it that it will be part of the Master Builder Series which is the playset style of exclusives. There’s no concrete details on what Mos Eisley will include but it was said the be released in September which is similar to what LEGO has done in the past. The price point could be around €349.99 and have up to 3,500 pieces. Again, these are purely speculation and I can’t confirm the validity of it as this is the first time I’ve heard of it. We’ll see in a few months. What do you want to see in the Cantina if this turns out to be true?

New LEGO Logo Tote Bag Coming Soon

July 16, 2020 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

LEGO Japan has shown off a new item that fans of LEGO history may be interested in. Over on their Twitter, they have shown off a transparent bag which is decorated with all of LEGO’s logos from its history starting at 1934, minus a couple here and there. It’s a nice bag for the summer if you’re able to go out. I’m not sure of the material used for it but it seems to be made out of plastic. There’s no word on the availability at this time. Thanks to Jesus for the heads up.
