Revealed: 11378 Douglas™ DC-3™ PAN AM® Airliner from LEGO® Icons

Up, up and away! LEGO® Icons have just revealed a new plane, coming in April 2026: Douglas™ DC-3™ PAN AM® Airliner. While it may not have quite the size of the LEGO Icons Concorde (and frankly, who had the shelf space for that?) the DC-3 certainly holds a comparable place in aviation history. You might say it was as common in its day as the Concorde was rare! But what LEGO rarities and novelties lie within this new set?

Review: 11389 Project Hail Mary from LEGO® Icons

I didn't really, I just got a bit absorbed in reading Andy Weir's wonderful 2021 book Project Hail Mary in preparation for the upcoming movie of the same name starring Ryan Gosling, and now I have been lucky enough to review the LEGO® Icons set 11389 Project Hail Mary. Spoilers may follow.

LEGO® Pick a Brick: new elements in March 2026

Today, Tuesday 3 March 2026, LEGO® Pick a Brick have already uploaded to the service 47 of the 51 new pieces on their March list. They supply the list in advance – things don't always totally match up with what goes up though. Perhaps the other 4 are coming in an hour or so.

It's a small month, because these are pieces from November 2025 sets, but there will be some exciting recoloured parts included: the many in 10366 Tropical Aquarium (including its new fin mould), nice light bluish grey ones in 10356 Star Trek: U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D (but no IP locked pieces of course), and a couple of arches from 21363 The Goonies as well as some minifigure hair.
