About a week ago, LEGO revealed a new LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog set called the Badnik Crabmeat (40781). At first, we didn’t know how it would be distributed whether it being a regular set that we could buy or it would be a gift with purchase set considering the set number. We can now confirm that it will be available in the LEGO Insiders Rewards Center very soon. It is listed to be available starting today but nothing has been loaded up yet. When it does go live, you can get the 181 piece set for 2,000 points. The post LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog Badnik Crabmeat (40781) Confirmed as Insiders Reward appeared first on The Brick Fan.

In the world of LEGO fan shows and AFOL collaborations, New Hashima is turning heads in a big way. The New Hashima Down Under collab was recently exhibited at Brickvention 2025 in Melbourne, Australia and consistently drew a crowd over the weekend. New hashima down under BrickNerd chatted to one of the coordinators, Joshua Morris, about his inspiration and challenges. Sue Ann: Hi there! What inspired you to build in the New Hashima standard? Joshua: Seeing the insane eighty+ person New Hashima collaboration from Brickworld Chicago 2023 certainly lit a spark within me. Attempting New Hashima was going to be a big task! We needed to assemble a crack team of Aussie AFOLs to tackle a massive collaboration of this size. I reached out to people that I know and admire to see who was keen. From there, New Hashima Down Under (NHDU) was born. With the wealth of resources and...

Not that too surprising, it has been announced that there will be LEGO sets for the upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth movie. The movie takes place five years after Jurassic World Dominion and a team is sent to a remote island to acquire DNA of the largest creatures. As for the sets, we can guess that we’ll be getting dinosaur figures of some of the ones seen in the trailer including the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Spinosaurus, Mosasaurus, and the mutated one which should be the feature attraction. LEGO’s Instagram has posted a teaser which shows the Spinosaurus between the trees.

The LEGO Marvel X-Men X-Jet (76281) was one of the more overpriced sets in 2024 but there’s a discount on Amazon that makes the price easier to swallow. The set has already been discounted by 12% but there’s also a $7.14 coupon that you can apply which essentially drops the price down to $67.99. This is roughly 20% off the retail price of $84.99. I have a feeling that this set won’t be getting any significant discounts (30%+) unless you happen to find it in stores when they’re marked down.

Every LEGO Marvel release has to have a small vehicle set and in 2025 there are actually two of them. The first one we’re checking out is the Spider-Man vs. Venom Muscle Car (76309). The set has 254 pieces and retails for $29.99. Minifigures There are three minifigures in the set, Spider-Man, Venom, and Spider-Woman. Spider-Man is the usual minifigure that we’ve seen before in previous Marvel sets with the printing on the arms. His accessories include some white Power Blast pieces for his webs. There’s also the new large rubber web piece that is able to close up to capture villains. Venom is also a reused minifigure. There’s nothing much to him but he does have a neck bracket for the black tentacles. Spider-Woman is a brand new minifigure that you can get for retail. The only other one was the San Diego Comic Con 2013 exclusive. This version of...
