LEGO Rebrick launched as a contest platform in March 2016 and we have been continuously impressed with the innovation and ingenuity we see in every single entry. We are excited to be able to now offer these contests on...

BrickLink has announced that they have teamed up with LEGO to launch something new called the AFOL Designer Program. According to the post, BrickLink will be hosting the program for a short time so I assume LEGO will be hosting it themselves in the future.

Today is such an exciting day at the BrickLink office because we finally get to reveal a very special collaboration with none other than the LEGO Group. We’ve been bursting at the seams because of how long we’ve had to keep this program a secret!
