394 new pieces from LEGO® sets are being added to the Pick a Brick service – right now, yes the process has started! It seems they are available in the US and Canada already, but not the rest of the world where they show as being out of stock (we suspect this is temporary while PaB dev team undertake deployment of some new features).
We have the complete list in visual form so you can plan your purchases easily!
The LEGO® Friends June 2025 wave (August in North America) brings us two sets with a common theme: elaborate outfits.

The new LEGO® Jurassic World Rebirth sets bring with them a whole group of new dinosaurs. I have already covered some of the bigger beasts in my reviews, and today I'm investigating a set with a cuter critter in it.
Earlier this year Nike and The LEGO Group announced a partnership promising sets, experiences, and more. The first step in the collaboration is the release of the Nike Dunk x LEGO® Set, a 1180 piece set celebrating one of Nike's most popular shoes, the Dunks.
With a number of new elements including recolours, new moulds, and a new minifigure, let's see if this is a step in the right direction for Nike.
After venturing out into The Minecraft Movie and Minecraft Legends, the LEGO® Minecraft™ theme returns to the core game with a myriad of biomes to explore. The June 2025 wave of sets includes a new ladder mould, big translucent plates, and menacing enemies, but that's not the only reason New Elementary is excited about this wave – New E alum Aron Gerencsér designed much of this LEGO Minecraft wave!
REMINDER: 2x points now available
Today we travel to the isle of Berk with a look at the long-awaited first LEGO® How to Train Your Dragon set: 10375 Toothless. I say long-awaited because the first film in the franchise was released in 2010, based upon the book from 2003.
For our first set review of the June 2025 wave of LEGO® Friends sets, we’re taking a trip to the seaside. We’ll hop on a cruise with 42664 Travel Boat Adventure, which will bring us to the idyllic scene depicted in 42673 Family Vacation Beach Resort. Grab your swimming suit and your coconut cocktail for a relaxing look at the exotic new elements found in these sets.
As well as the 3 new LEGO® 4+ BLUEY™ sets, LEGO® DUPLO® have released 2 new sets for toddlers (and parents) to enjoy!
Just like the LEGO sets, there are lots of new elements to play with. Join us as we take a look at sets 10458 Ice Cream Trip with Bluey and 10459 Bluey's Family House and Memory Game. This is gonna be fun!
Set 10352 The Simpsons™ Krusty Burger has been available to LEGO® Insiders since Sunday along with its accompanying Gift with Purchase (GwP), 5009325 The Simpsons™ Living Room. On Wednesday 4 June 2025 they both become available to all, so having already reviewed the Krusty Burger LEGO set we thought we would take a close look at the "couch gag" living room GwP today. Cue theme tune!
A sense of normality returns to LEGO® Pick a Brick! New pieces from LEGO sets released in February 2025 have been added to the service following the traditional 4-month gap.
I've created a list showing all 1083 new LEGO® elements added in June 2025, with links to which sets they come in, in case you wish to purchase.
For those of you who prefer it, here is our list of the 108 June 2025 sets showing their new elements.
Also today, 3 June, new pieces have been added to the LEGO Pick a Brick service from sets released in February 2025.
As with all art, the LEGO® Art theme is constantly evolving. Last year, 31211 Macaw Parrots was the first set with the label ‘The Fauna Collection’ featuring two flat, stylized parrots not directly based on an artist's work. The second set in the collection is now rearing its roaring head: 31217 Tiger.
Four years after the LEGO® Botanical Collection debuted with the launch of 10281 Bonsai Tree, The LEGO Group returns to the tree nursery from midnight tonight (Saturday 1 June 2025) with the release of 10348 Japanese Red Maple Bonsai Tree.
Hooray! The long-awaited LEGO® BLUEY™ sets are almost here. The new theme launches with 3 LEGO® System 4+ sets which my family and I have reviewed here today: 11201 Playground Fun with Bluey, 11202 Bluey's Beach and Family Car Trip, and 11203 Bluey's Family House; and 2 LEGO® DUPLO® sets, which we will review soon.
With heaps of new elements, including new minifigures, tons of prints, and even a few new moulds (for real life!), there's a lot to discuss. Let's do this!
Despite appearing on our best parts of 2024 list, we've yet to actually analyse this ghoulish element in all its ethereal glory, but now that it is available on LEGO Pick a Brick in 2 colours, its time has come.
LEGO® Lord of the Rings was very popular back in 2012 and 2013. Less than 20 sets were released, and their aftermarket prices are formidable. The theme returned two years ago under the LEGO® Icons line with more adult-oriented and expensive playsets, flanked by some LEGO® Brickheadz. Compared to 10316 Rivendell (see our review by Ben Davies), 10333 Barad-dûr (review by Jonas Kramm) and 10354 The Shire (review by Thomas Jenkins), the June 2025 set 10367 Balrog Book Nook feels like a modestly sized, affordable model. Except that modestly sized and affordable in 2025 means 1201 pieces for US$129.99/ £109.99/ 119.99€!

Here is a historical record of the Gifts with Purchase (GwP) and promotions available on LEGO.com during May 2025. Most are no longer available, however a couple continue until end 2 June.
Summer is coming to the Northern Hemisphere, and Heartlake City continues to grow with another wave of sets. With 13 products, the range coming on 1 June 2025 is a fair bit smaller than January's, which featured 20, but that won't diminish the quality of the models, or of course the new elements they bring – and there's even a new color.
As with the previous waves, I’ve opened up all the boxes we received for review – 11 of the 13 sets – and dug through them to bring you an overview of all the new elements these bring us, before building the featured models in later articles.
The second wave of LEGO® Technic for 2025 is hitting shelves next month.
It’s comprised of 3 sets: 42208 Aston Martin Valkyrie, 42209 Volvo
L120 Electric Wheel Loader, and 42210 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline
GT-R (R34) Car. I think it’s not much of a spoiler when I say that each
one is attractive to MOCers in its own way.
For now, we’ll take a look at the new elements in all 3 sets, and at a later date, the actual models.
Set 42170 Kawasaki Ninja H2R Motorcycle was the 2024 addition to the 1:8-scale LEGO® Technic motorcycle range, depicting the Kawasaki Ninja H2R, also from 2024. It is noteworthy for being the first set to feature new engine cylinder elements that have quickly spread to all kinds of sets, big and small.
1986 was a historic year. The world was rocked by some tragedies; the Space Shuttle Challenger exploded shortly after launch and the Chernobyl disaster remains the worst nuclear accident in the history of nuclear power generation. On a lighter note, the disposable camera was invented by Fujifilm, and the animated short film Luxo Jr. was produced and released by Pixar Animation Studios.
The next LEGO® Ideas set to be released is 21357 Disney Pixar Luxo Jr., a LEGO version of the baby lamp and ball featured in the short film, which remains a icon of the company today.
A new LEGO® Icons set has just landed! 10360 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft is a 2417-piece set that recreates the space shuttle Enterprise and the modified Boeing 747™ that was used to transport it between missions. While LEGO has produced a great number of space shuttle sets in the past, this is the first time to see this specific shuttle in brick form. This is also the first official LEGO depiction of the Boeing 747.
Fasten your seat belts and check that overhead compartment because this jumbo jet is quite a ride!
With the endless surge of adult-oriented sets, it is astonishing that Sherlock Holmes, the world's most famous detective, has not officially appeared in a LEGO® form – not even as a Gift with Purchase, similar to the Jules Verne set.
Created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887, Sherlock's influence in storytelling has been remarkable. Thus, it's brilliant to see that his LEGO debut is directly bound to books: LEGO® Icons set 10351 Sherlock Holmes: Book Nook is designed to be displayed among them.
The Simpsons™ is one of the most famous and longest-running animated shows ever, and is still going (strong?). The dysfunctional family has been captured in LEGO® form before, and now, after 10 years of silence (aside from a rogue LEGO® Brickheadz set), they are back for a snack – at 10352 The Simpsons: Krusty Burger.
As I was still fully in my LEGO® Technic phase when The Simpsons LEGO sets came out, I’m eager to build the revival, now marketed under the LEGO® Icons umbrella, and discover its new pieces.
I've created a list showing all 222 new LEGO® elements added in May 2025, now updated to include the exciting new sets released today, Thursday 15 May: 10360 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft, 72037 Mario Kart: Mario & Standard Kart and 31216 Keith Haring’s Dancing Figures as well as the GwP 40767 Up-Scaled Baby Astronaut and the LEGO® Insiders reward 40787 Mario Kart – Spiny Shell.
For those of you who prefer it, here instead is our list of May 2025 sets showing their new elements.Spacebaby, Spacebaby, SPACEBABY! LEGO® set 40767 Up-Scaled Baby Astronaut is the adorable new Gift with Purchase (GwP) that is now available, until 23 May 2025 or while stocks last, with all purchases meeting the minimum threshold of 150€/ US$150/ CA$190/ £135/ AU$245/ NZ$265. We received an early copy for a review, so let's take a look at this oh-so-cute mega-baby face.
Today we complete our analysis of LEGO® Star Wars™ 75409 Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship. In part 1 we examined set 75409's new moulds and recoloured pieces. In this article we'll be exploring the set's build techniques and minifigures, before concluding with a look at the impressive completed model and play features.
"Hang on son, we'll move into the asteroid field. And we'll have a couple of surprises for him"
For a simple man trying to make his way in the universe, Jango doesn't travel light. LEGO® Star Wars set 75409 Jango Fett's Firespray-Class Starship is bountiful in every sense of the word. Today we examine the new moulds, recolours and decorated elements it has to offer.
Arno Knobbe (@legoarno on Instagram) completes his popular trilogy of guest articles today, gently introducing you to the math behind useful techniques for building at diagonals to the LEGO® grid. If you missed them, you may wish to read the others first – Part 1: building at angles, and Part 2: techniques with reflected wedges.
The deals for Star Wars Day, May the Fourth, are now over. We will keep this page live as a record of what was on offer, including our review of 40765 Kamino Training Facility.
Visit our page of current LEGO® promotions and Gifts with Purchase (GwP) for May 2025 to see what happened after Star Wars Day.
LEGO® Pick a Brick paused new uploads earlier this year, but they have just resumed the addition of new parts a month earlier than anticipated!
But what to do with them? I've explored the potential of some of the pieces in original LEGO build creations using my own collection.
It's back! Having paused the addition of new elements in February 2025, today LEGO® Pick a Brick have resumed – and it's a mammoth haul of over 1,000 pieces.

For me, a highlight of LEGO® sets over the last few years has been some of the brick-built creatures that would have been unthinkable in the past. As part of their LEGO® Creator 3-in-1 line, they have now made all manner of brick beasts; crocodiles, giraffes, pandas and more have all been depicted in impressive style.
Our review of set 31216 Keith Haring Dancing Figures is now available
LEGO® Botanicals are retreading old ground and breaking fresh ground with their latest two sets to be revealed, and while both share Japanese influences, they couldn't be more different: a big new bonsai tree, and tiny little kawaii-style potted plants who are best buddies and love you very much.
Today, Tuesday 29 April 2025 is the final day of 40783 Coral Reef Diorama as the global Gift with Purchase (GwP). Then, LEGO® Star Wars™ deals and GwPs for May the Fourth will commence on Thursday 1 May.
If you bought a ticket at
the booth you may board the Amelia, LEGO® Ideas latest and
biggest set. But now you’ll hopefully enjoy your ride on the “Ghost ship of the Mississippi” – we’ll get to that naming later.
The LEGO® Pick a Brick team challenged New Elementary to transform an ordinary set into something new with the help of some extra pieces from Pick a Brick online. Jonas Kramm stepped up by reimagining iconic LEGO® Botanicals set 10329 Tiny Plants as a series of Flower Pot Pals! Here's what he came up with – and you can try one for yourself by studying his breakdown.
Continuing today's reflected wedge extravaganza, Arno Knobbe challenged me to dream up something swooshable using some of the geometric delights we saw in his technique article about building off the LEGO grid with reflected wedges. Let's escape the grid in a spaceship!
After the popularity of his first guest post for us, Arno Knobbe (@legoarno on Instagram) returns today to explain more core building techniques for sending your models off the rectilinear grid.
