LEGO has released the first details on what will be going on their inaugural LEGO CON which will be happening on June 26. The events listed includes a LEGO Minecraft Q&A with LEGO designers and Lydia Winters of Mojang Studios, a LEGO Technic race, a closer look at the new LEGO Super Mario sets, a LEGO Harry Potter building challenge, a LEGO City interview with a real-life astronaut, and also a new LEGO Star Wars sets reveal. Could the new set finally be the Republic Gunship (75309) that we’ve all been waiting to be announced for a whole year?
