LEGO has revealed a new set in the Wonders of the Natural World line with the Northern Lights Diorama (40785). The set has 332 pieces and it features a snowy scene in the Northern Hemisphere with the aurora borealis in the background. There’s no details yet on when the gift with purchase set will release and we can easily assume that it’ll require a $150 purchase like with the previous sets in the line.

The scene depicts a Northern Hemisphere landscape with a skyscape featuring the aurora borealis.

Here at BrickNerd, we took a look at the new version of the Black Pearl, evaluated whether the new Nike sets are a slam dunk or not, and met an AFOL making wonderful alternate builds from modular sets. We continued an ongoing series and looked at developing an individual style for your MOCs, took a sweet look at the new Friends beekeeper set, studied ingenious ways to build the humble chair, and went even sweeter yet with the Willy Wonka set. In fact, we’ve published so many interesting articles in September that we’ve included an interactive calendar of them at the bottom of this post, so you can make sure you haven’t missed a thing.
