There’s never a bad time for some botanical building! That is clearly the ethos at LEGO® House in Denmark in 2025, because when they were closed over January, the LEGO florists moved in.
I visited recently to discover their new displays, and was met in LEGO Square at a new big flower wall by none other than the blooming LEGO House Master Builder himself, Stuart Harris who personally guided me around the areas where the the LEGO® Botanicals have taken root.
LEGO® House have just released details of their 2025 exclusive set, 40506 LEGO® Fabuland® Tribute, available only in their shop in Billund, Denmark from March 2025. This children's theme that ran from 1979 to 1989 is greatly loved by LEGO fans of all ages, so we expect this exclusive set will prove popular.
We saw the set in September 2024 at Fan Media Days and finally we can show you those pictures! Edward Elephant, Joe Crow, Dr Lucy Lamb and Clive Crocodile have formed a band and are playing by a tree.

LEGO® House in Billund, Denmark has reopened for 2025, and I went to see what's new! Who better to show it to me than Stuart Harris, the Master Builder at LEGO House. He and the team have been busily refreshing exhibits and play experiences throughout January, including a takeover of LEGO House by the LEGO® Botanicals theme – which I will show you in my second article.
Today, I'm exclusively revealing the new LEGO® FABULAND® displays situated in the History Collection (the official LEGO museum in the basement). Read on to join me in a happy place!
28 January marks the "birthday" of the LEGO® brick — the anniversary of the day in 1958 when the patent of the LEGO System 2x4 brick was submitted to the trademark office in Denmark. This is celebrated today as International LEGO Day.

As a way to celebrate as only New Elementary can, we decided to test your LEGO moulding knowledgeby posing a series of questions on our social media asking you to identify items in an image. Here are the questions and also the answers, so let's see how many you have right.
Available to pre-order now, and released on 1 March 2025, the LEGO® Art theme returns to Vincent Van Gogh's work with a Sunflowers LEGO set.
LEGO Art 31215 Sunflowers was revealed to us last year at Fan Media Days by Fiorella Lee Groves, creative lead and Stijn Oom, the set's lead designer. The following coverage of the set reveal has been edited for readability and narrative flow.
The Trevi Fountain, one of Rome’s most renowned landmarks, is coming to LEGO® Architecture... again!
Set 21062 Trevi Fountain is available to pre-order now in advance of its 1 March 2025 release, but was revealed to a select few at last year’s Fan Media Days in Denmark, where we joined our fellow fan media The Brothers Brick and Tips & Bricks for an exclusive chat with Mary Wilson, designer of this bellissimo new set. The transcript we share with you below has been edited for narrative flow and brevity.
Just revealed, the 2025 LEGO® Icons Modular Buildings Collection set is 10350 Tudor Corner! Our review is coming tomorrow, but first we have a rather special introduction with exclusive photos.
Coming 1 January 2025, LEGO® Icons set 10363 Leonardo Da Vinci's Flying Machine is quite unlike anything you've seen before from The LEGO Group!
The development team at LEGO® Pick a Brick have released another awesome update to the service that LEGO builders have been asking for: you can now download a list of the elements in your shopping cart.
On 1 November 2024, LEGO is releasing the next fan-inspired LEGO® Ideas set: The Botanical Garden! This set is based on a fan design by Valentina Bima (Goannas89), which reached the required 10,000 supporter milestone back on 9 January 2023, and was announced as a future set in the results of the First 2023 Review last December.
We recently came across a new LEGO® element. They look somewhat macabre and perhaps more akin to something from John Carpenter's The Thing than LEGO.
The elements in question appears to be mini-doll legs that are moulded in pairs. The double-ended legs started a discussion here at New Elementary about mini-doll leg moulding processes and the timing of printing. Read on to hear our theories.
Recently I was lucky enough to attend an online reveal of the latest LEGO® House exclusive set, 40505 LEGO Building Systems, with the opportunity to ask some questions to the set's designers, Stuart Harris (LEGO House Master Builder) and Markus Rollbüller (Senior Designer at The LEGO Group).
Many of you have been asking here on the site and across our social channels about the delays in adding new elements to the LEGO® Pick a Brick (PaB) online service. We have an update from LEGO, and it is not good news in the short term.
With 2275 parts, 42639 Andrea’s Modern Mansion is the largest LEGO® Friends set to date. These parts include a lot of interesting new elements which we’ve already taken a look at, but now it’s time to start building!
Over the years we've seen many mechs in the LEGO® NINJAGO® line-up and their builds have increasingly evolved through time. In 2024 the designers are introducing new elements to bring even more build options and play features.
Today we’ll be taking a look at 3 mechs from the first wave of 2024 sets; 71806 Cole's Earth Mech, 71807 Sora's Tech Mech and 71808 Kai's Fire Mech.
LEGO® Friends celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2022, and in 2023 we saw a relaunch of the theme. The Heartlake City Universe made a time jump, introducing a new generation of characters. But the old friends were not forgotten! The original group is meeting up in 42639 Andrea's Modern Mansion for a reunion and catching up on adventures since their ‘split’. We’ll join the party soon, but first we’ll be taking a look at all the new elements found in the set. And there is a new color!
The LEGO® DREAMZzz™ sets for January 2024 maintain the eclectic, fantastical nature of the theme with five new sets made up of bright shades, sinister baddies and wild mash-ups.
