Element analysis: Wing 1 1/2 x 1 x 1 (8193)

New moulds are appearing at a dizzying rate these days, and yet, most seem to just be variations on existing parts; prime example being the never-ending supply of curved slopes in every size and shape imaginable. Every now and then, however, there's a newbie that feels distinctly... well... distinct! Enter the baby fin: adorable, unique and oozing with potential. Let's take a closer look.

Review: 42233 Mighty Machines Series 1 from LEGO® Technic

Big ideas in tiny boxes. Today I rekindle my interest in LEGO® Technic with a look at Series 1 of the new blind-box collectible series: 42233 Mighty Machines. Childhood Me would've gone mad for these: they're super-duper inspiring, lovely little builds that just make me go "wheeeeee"! To top it off, they contain interesting new moulds.

What are the new LEGO® parts in August 2026 sets?

I've created a list showing the 941 new LEGO® elements within the August 2026 sets, with links to which sets they come in, in case you wish to purchase.

That's unusually high for August releases, but the new parts in LEGO® Pokémon SMART Play™ sets account for a lot, and those are only available in the US, UK, Australia, Germany, France and Poland.

New moulds in LEGO® Pokémon SMART Play™ sets August 2026

Stand by, trainers: prepare to catch, bond with and train your Pokémon with the August 2026 wave of LEGO® Pokémon SMART Play™ sets now available, but only in the US, UK, Australia, Germany, France and Poland.

This first article takes a look at all the new moulds, and there are plenty to be found amongst the fifteen sets (including the two paper-poly bags and a gift-with-purchase set).

Review: 11382 Hubble Space Telescope from LEGO® Icons

The Hubble Space Telescope is almost as cool as LEGO® sets, so combining the two is a brilliant idea. On Saturday 1 August 2026, LEGO® Icons set 11382 Hubble Space Telescope is available: a detailed, realistic model both inside and out, and it's minifigure-scale! Let's take a peep.

Review: 21067 Tower Bridge from LEGO® Architecture

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.

Review: 21370 E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial from LEGO® Ideas

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.

Review: 72051 Donkey Kong Arcade from LEGO® Super Mario™

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?
