The Statue of Liberty is widely recognized not just by Americans but worldwide as a symbol of freedom. A beloved icon, it has amazingly been recreated in at least ten iterations of LEGO sets. Today we are going to look at each and every LEGO Statue of Liberty. We will only be covering versions that are brick-built and have been available for purchase, so that excludes the many versions found in LEGOLAND Minilands, costumes, bag tags, and more. Let’s get started with the biggest version! A Grand Beginning! The first set (3450) was released in 2000 and was massive at 10.5 pounds, nearly 34 inches tall, and constructed from 2,882 parts. The set included 1,654 2 by X (2 x 3, 2 x 8, etc.) bricks. Never before had AFOLs gotten such a tremendous amount of sand green parts in one place This set was unusual with the box produced in...

Now that a whole generation has grown up with LEGO as a part of their childhood, a fun new market has been created for nostalgic sets harking back to old LEGO themes, like Classic Castle, Space, and of course, Pirates. Each of these sets has a unique charm, combining the classic colors and playful concepts of the old themes with modern parts and techniques, and the new 10320 Eldorado Fortress is no exception. As long-time pirate MOCers, my brother Isaiah and I jumped at the chance to “review” this set. Here at BrickNerd, we like getting a bit more creative with the sets that LEGO offers us. Right out of the box, what the Eldorado Fortress screamed to us was story. We’ll get into the specific reasons why this set is so great for storytelling in a moment but first… it’s storytime!

Our favorite annual LEGO castle contest, Summer Joust, is in full swing for 2023. And builder T-86(swe) has made a glorious submission to the silhouette category: the Dandelumian Crest. In an age when LEGO sets are also starting to stretch the 2-D boundaries of the standard mosaic, T-86 provides depth to their creation with a lattice of dark gray plates and tiles fit in-between the background studs. While it may not be a “legal” connection in all cases (legal with a tile and not with a plate, but that’s a discussion for another post), the maze-like grid provides an outstanding backdrop for the sword and twisting plant laid over top. The whole thing definitely gives off some heavy “Gordian Knot” vibes, and I love it! The post Does this LEGO mosaic commemorate the Red Dawn, or portent a new one? appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Kyle Keller

We started our look at the new LEGO Dreamzzz theme on the dark side with 71469 Nightmare Shark Ship. Today let’s skip nightmares entirely and explore a relaxing place of peace, beauty, and wonder: 71459 Stable of Dream Creatures. There are no Grimspawn, Night Terrors, or other bad dreams here – just giant flowered dream deer, a windmill, and a… a cat cactus? Yeah, a cat cactus. If you’ve watched the first 10 episodes of the TV show… either you spotted something we didn’t, or you’ll recognize the deer, and that’s it. In any case, here’s our review of the set, which contains 681 pieces, 4 minifigures + 2 dreamlings + cat cactus + z-blob, and can be pre-ordered now and will ship August 1st for US $79.99 | CAN $99.99 | UK £74.99. The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for review. Providing...
