Tower Bridge is one of London's most iconic landmarks, so it is no surprise that it has been immortalised in LEGO® bricks several times. It has appeared in miniature in the LEGO® Architecture Skyline series set 21034 London. The 10214 Tower Bridge version had a shelf life of 8 years, so it must have been popular. But that set retired in 2018, so it is perhaps no surprise that the LEGO Architecture designers have decided to recreate it again, in a slightly smaller scale than its bigger sibling, as 21067 Tower Bridge. Let's take a closer look.
It's time to grab your Speak and Spell and mount your BMX, because E.T. needs to phone home. Set 21370 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is the latest set to emerge from the LEGO® Ideas platform.
It's not just 1980s nostalgia in the box; there's a new mould, a couple of new prints and a lot of medium nougat to feast on.
It's-a me: Jumpman! In August 2026, Donkey Kong and the protoype Mario will appear together in LEGO® Super Mario™ 72051 Donkey Kong Arcade which recreates the game that introduced the world to these iconic characters for the first time. It's a playable game, to a degree – Jumpman is able to jump and move forward, but unable to climb.
How high can we get on its new elements?
The LEGO® Botanicals theme has several frequent typologies, one of which is the classic bouquet that requires an external vase for display. Last year's 10345 Flower Arrangement (see Thomas' review of set 10345) offered an alternative with a brick-built base that makes the model straightforward to display while keeping the essential idea of arranging different flowers with varying colours and shapes. Set 11513 Dark Flowers Arrangement is a smaller version of 10345 with a Gothic twist. It is a fitting arrangement for fans of old leather-bound books, black wax candles and Tim Burton.
While the LEGO® Icons theme is primarily known for delivering intricate models intended for display, the new 11374 Arcade Pinball Machine instead attempts to deliver a model where function is as important as form. Promising a fully-playable game of pinball using just LEGO bricks, I was understandably curious to examine how the model was constructed.
The latest addition to the LEGO® Technic Ultimate Car Concept Series is packed with great new elements, as I revealed previously. Today, I’m finally building the set and find out if 42232 Koenigsegg Sadair's Spear Megacar also provides a satisfying build and finished model.
LEGO® Botanicals theme offers an alternative to people who want to have some greenery in their home but are unable to keep real houseplants alive. Plastic stays green long after we people are long dead – as H.P. Lovecraft said, "that is not dead which can eternal lie".
11512 Hanging Golden Pothos certainly takes the lifelikeness to the maximum, being easily mistaken for a real, living Pothos. Is realism enough to make a great set?
The latest set from LEGO® Architecture, 21066 New York City – The Big Apple continues The LEGO Group's enduring love of the city that never sleeps. Its simple colour palette does not mean there are no new elements: there are recolours to enjoy. Let's take a bite and see what's inside.
I've created a list showing the 110 new LEGO® elements within the July 2026 sets, with links to which sets they come in, in case you wish to purchase.
It's a light month between the June and August juggernauts, but still there is enough to be excited about!
