There is now a rumored set list for the upcoming LEGO Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker which are set to be released on Triple Force Friday in October. The names of the sets may not be accurate but they represent what the sets will be and the prices are guesstimates. These sets are most likely the initial wave of The Rise of Skywalker sets and more will be released next year in the spring. Also the D-0 droid shown above will most likely be in one of the sets as it was first shown at the end of the LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga video game trailer.
LEGO has released a new trailer for the upcoming episode of the 2019 LEGO Ninjago TV season called The Fire Chapter. According to the caption on their Facebook post, it will be premiering June 22 on Cartoon Network and it will be about 11 minutes per episode.
The trailer shows Queen Aspheera wanting revenge on Garmadon who locked her in a pyramid for a thousand years and the ninjas need to use the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu to defeat her.
The Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu have been kept a secret for a thousand years. With good reason. The evil Serpentine sorceress, Aspheera, was banished along with the Scrolls – but now she is back, hungry for revenge, and ready to get her fangs on the Scrolls once more and reclaim her powers. The ninja’s powers, friendships, beliefs and loyalties will be put to the test like never before.
LEGO will be launching a new program this August called the Lead User Lab which will bring ideas from LEGO fans and potentially bringing them to life. If you have a brilliant idea but don’t know how to execute it, this program may be the solution. Some of these ideas could include complementary add-ons to the LEGO building system, digital experiences, and also marketplaces. Learn more about the Lead User Lab below.
The Lead User Lab will aim to capture new-to-the-company ideas, evaluate their potential and bring them to life in new ways.
Planned to start in August, the Lead User Lab pilot project sets out to build a unique innovation model for the LEGO Group, capturing, evaluating and nurturing ideas from the brilliant and creative minds of LEGO fans and Lead Users among adult LEGO users.
Co-creating these future innovations will set the ground for developing investigate new opportunity areas which might include complementary add-ons to the LEGO building system, digital experiences and even marketplaces, imagined by the Lead Users, and brought to scale by the LEGO Group.
Kari Vinther Nielsen, Head of Lead User Lab at the LEGO Group said:
“Innovation is often something you don’t know you need. Lead Users often create this future – they react to trends and come up with ingenious solutions to problems we perhaps didn’t even know we had! We want to capture this brilliance and ingenuity of Lead Users in a systematic way, explore the high potential ideas and co-create to expand the LEGO idea in ways
LEGO has revealed this year’s Inside Tour exclusive set as The LEGO System House (4000034) in the form of building instructions that they have put online. The System House was an administrative building that was used to handle the company’s international activities, exhibiting new products, and as an inspiration center. There are a number of international flags on the roof to show when a representative of sales companies from a particular nation visit Billund.
Update: The building instructions have been taken down.
Earlier today, LEGO announced the new LEGO Jurassic World Jurassic Park: T. rex Rampage (75936) and fans noticed that it looks extremely similar to a project that previously hit 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas. Both features the Jurassic Park gate and the Tyrannosaurus Rex however the project was minifigure scaled and it featured the Ford Explorer while the new set features a much larger T.Rex. There has already been much discussion about it on social media saying that LEGO did such and such.
The design teams at LEGO has released a statement on the LEGO Ambassador Network about this issue and hopefully it’ll ease some of the concerns that LEGO “copied” the project from LEGO Ideas. Take it however you like but keep in mind that LEGO plans upcoming sets years ahead before they are released as is noted in the statement below.
Based on these discussions I’ve engaged the LEGO Ideas team and the Jurassic Park Design team. Here’s the statement about the set:
Although the new 75936 Jurassic Park T-Rex Rampage set shares similarities in design to the LEGO Ideas submission “Jurassic Park” by senteosan, this model was developed entirely internally by a team of LEGO Designers who create great new sets that kids and adult fans alike are passionate about. The basis of their model was a large, grey, brick-built T-Rex created by LEGO Designer Mike Psiaki in 2012 when he joined the LEGO Group and from there the model evolved by including the iconic Jurassic Park gates to add additional building
