After the CES 2026 event, we’ve gotten some more information about the LEGO SMART Play system and it was revealed that the sets will only be available on March 1 for six launch markets: United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Poland, and Australia. This wasn’t mentioned during CES or at any presentations afterward so that’s very baffling. The following details are LEGO’s statement on why there are only six countries for the launch: The first LEGO SMART Play sets will be on shelf from 1st March 2026 in our six launch markets: US, UK, France, Germany, Poland and Australia. It wasn’t launched globally, as LEGO® SMART Play is a major transformative company-wide initiative that spans our entire value chain, from R&D to manufacturing and retail....

A new day and we have a small LEGO Ideas First 2026 Review Stage update as a few projects in the past few days have reached the 10,000 supporter goal.

There’s something about the big-eyed robot’s design that lends itself so well to bricks, and not just for screen-accurate interpretations. Curtis D Collins uses the basic WALL-E design as a springboard for a whole army of bots inspired by LEGO’s iconic space themes. Of course, the series has to start with Classic Space colors. Curtis incorporates signature elements from each era into the WALL-E builds, like this fella’s positioning thrusters.
