Fools: Here we have Draco Malfoy in his Slytherin sweater, which is probably my favorite of the bunch. The Santa-hat Grindylow is super cute! Of course, as a Slytherin myself I might be a little biased. Bones: How can you be so angry while wearing a sweater this cute? Expansion: That Slytherin jumper is great....

Nearly 15 years ago, LEGO launched a new line of action-themed sets in a theme called Ninjago. At the time it was expected to be much like other themes of the time, with a run of two to three years. As it turned out, it was successful beyond even LEGO’s own expectations – and the theme is now a beloved mainstay of their current catalogue. At least part of Ninjago’s success can be attributed to the accompanying TV series, the pilot episodes for which were broadcast in January 2011. In an apt celebration of this anniversary, January 1, 2026 sees the release of 71858 Four Weapons Blacksmith. 1,259 pieces make up the place where the Ninjago story started – yours for US $99.99 | CAN $129.99 | UK £89.99. Let’s look at it together and go back to the beginning – long before time had a name… LEGO Ninjago 71858 Four...

We all know the rules. During the holidays, if you get caught under the mistletoe, you get kissed. But get caught underneath this polar projectile by Trevor Pearson-Jones, and you might just kiss your butt good-bye. In addition to being a perfectly rendered visual pun, we appreciate the sense of motion instilled in the build. That festive fella really looks like he’s holding on for dear life. But we guess Kermit takes all the really good holiday jobs for amphibians, and this guy’s gotta take what he can get.

Fools: This jumbo-size box of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavored Beans is sure to delight or disgust! Expansion: the ultimate party forfeit is eating a jumbo box of Bertie Bot’s in one sitting! Bones: Four new 2×3 printed tiles in one gift, this really is Christmas. Seems perfect for a circus moc. Fools: A little Hogwarts-made...

It must have been divine inspiration. A stained-glass window at church set Mr Youm to considering what the image would look like in 3D, and the resulting build isn’t quite like anything we’ve ever seen before. Copious amounts of black tubing and bars have been shaped into an outline holding a heavnly host of transparent LEGO elements together, creating an angel who looks for all the world like a stained-glass come to live. It’s incredible enough that the silhouette of the angle was achieved, but when you dig in on the details – the natural bend of the fingers, the individual toes – it’s something that can only be called a miracle.
