LEGO News, LEGO Reviews, and Discussions
A few days ago, we talked about some upcoming LEGO Monkie Kid sets that come from LEGO Shop@Home Malaysia and there are now official images of the sets. There are three system sets that we can expect soon, minus the BrickHeadz set. There’s no word yet on the release date.
If you’ve used the LEGO VIP Reward Center, you may have noticed that it’s a bit clunky to use. LEGO has been taking feedback and they have announced that they will be making the first big update to the site some time tomorrow. Most of the update will be dedicated to the front-end of the site which includes a refreshed look and feel of it. You can read more about the update below.
… ContinueWe have been listening to your feedback and pleased to let you know about the first big update to the VIP program.
As of tomorrow 8th of July (subject to change) we will be launching a refreshed VIP Reward Center. This refresh has a number of visual changes to the platform, but more importantly there are a number of technology changes that will be going live in the background.
Overall highlights of the change that you can see from tomorrow:
• Refreshed VIP reward Centre look and feel, navigation around the site is easier and more dynamic
• Improved sign in process to the reward centre
• The location and language you are viewing LEGO.com will follow you onto the VIP reward Centre.
• New Pop up and banner to inform you that you are no longer in your VIP home country, we heard cases where members had redeemed rewards in the wrong country and have been unable to get these rewards. I want to avoid that confusion so when you visit a different countries Reward Centre you will see limited selection of
A few months ago, LEGO ran a building contest on LEGO Ideas to build a vacation set and the winning set, chosen by fans, will become a future gift with purchase set. Today LEGO has announced that winning build which is the Sailing Ship Adventure by yc_solo which won by a mere eight votes. That build will now go into production and you will be able to get your hands on it some time down the road.
These contests are ran to give fans the opportunity to become a part of LEGO history as fan designers. Other contests like this include the Rocket Ride (40335) and an upcoming vintage car.

The summer 2020 wave of LEGO Jurassic World sets are now available for purchase over on LEGO Shop@Home. It’s a small wave and there are four sets to choose from including one for the 4+ range.
It looks like time has finally come for the LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 (31313) as it has been listed as “Retiring Soon” on LEGO Shop@Home. The set was announced way back in 2013 and it has been a staple in numerous robotic builds in the years since then. Its successor will be the LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor (51515) which will be releasing later this year. If you’re wanting to get EV3, I would suggest getting a tracker on Camelcamelcamel to notify you if there is a price drop on Amazon. There’s no word on when EV3 will be gone but I’m guessing by the end of the year.
