Parts review: January 2026 LEGO® DREAMZzz™ sets

No time for sleep, as LEGO® DREAMZzz™ enters 2026 with a new wave of 5 sets to be released in January. The theme is known for bringing extravagant builds, while introducing unique new elements. Let’s see if this wave also contains the stuff of dreams.

Review: 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII from LEGO® Technic

The 1:18 scale range of LEGO® Technic vehicles (colloquially known as the “Car Transporter Gang” due to the first vehicle in this scale appearing in that set) is dominated by modern sports cars and SUVs, but 42223 1966 Ford GT40 MKII shakes things up by bringing a classic machine into the mix. 

What else does this set bring? Read on to find out! 

Review + MOC: 75428 Battle Droid with STAP from LEGO® Star Wars™

LEGO® Star Wars™ has been around for 26 years without a break. Despite being galaxy-wide, the theme has been making certain subjects over and over again. Although minifigure scale has been the standard, the first large-scale characters – using both LEGO® System and LEGO® Technic System bricks – were released soon after the theme's beginning. Recently, we have seen statuesque, LEGO System-based character models such as 75371 Chewbacca (see my Chewbacca review) and 75398 C-3PO (see my review of the parts in C-3PO). These have been 18+ sets sporting an extravagant air, with  blue-on-black information plaques and designer remarks in the instructions.

75428 Battle Droid with STAP seems to be something in between those and normal sets. It has standard instructions without remarks, and no 18+ branding on the box – the age mark is 12+. The model is poseable, but on the other hand, it has the aforementioned plaque and a sleek, black stand. However, my passion lies in some new recolours it has, which imply that we're getting some sweet ball joint recolours for the first time since 2011. Thus, this article features a parts review, a set review, an "Old Elementary" section and an original model by me. Roger roger!

BrickLink® closures: Official statement

BrickLink®, owned by The LEGO Group since 2019, have apologised for the manner of their recent shock announcement to close BrickLink Marketplaces in 35 countries. They have announced an extension to the closure date and removal of fees, but only provide a vague answer as to why this drastic change has occurred.

We did not post about this shocking change when it was revealed recently, but are united with the community in horror at the impact this will have to individual sellers and the global community of buyers and sellers.

Review: 11370 Stranger Things – The Creel House from LEGO® Icons

It has been a while since the last LEGO® Stranger Things minifigure-based set, but LEGO® Icons 11370 Stranger Things: The Creel House is due to release 1 January 2026 for LEGO® Insiders. If you purchase it at launch, you will also receive 40891 Stranger Things: WSQK Radio Station as a free gift with purchase (GwP) – our review of that will be coming shortly.

I haven’t actually watched Season 5 yet, so spoilers in this review are limited, but inevitably there are spoilers within the images of this set and also in some of my commentary based upon what I do know, so be warned – sensitive folks should back away from the review of this spooky house now.
