Tile Special 2 x 2 with Ring (6805) from LEGO® Classic

We spotted a new mould that, at time of writing, can only found in two LEGO® Classic sets from January 2025: 11042 Creative Happy Box and 11040 Magical Transparent Box.

It's a 2x2 tile with a vertical ring, and seems to be a way to hang models in the two classic sets. We are sure it offers more creative possibilities than that, so let's set the New Elementary Hive Mind to work and take a closer look.

Review: 76973 Raptor & Titanosaurus Tracking Mission from LEGO® Jurassic World™

Welcome to the final review in our LEGO® Jurassic World™ Rebirth June 2025 coverage. As has been the case with preceding sets in the theme, each set in this latest wave has been defined by the dinosaurs featured in it. This set has got a big one; the biggest dinosaur made by The LEGO Group to date, I believe.

With such a biggie included, I wonder whether the titanosaurus leaves room for anything else? Let's start by taking a look at the parts.

What are the new LEGO® parts in July 2025 sets?

I've created a list showing all 86 new LEGO® elements within the July 2025 sets, 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 July 2025 sets showing their new elements.

July 2025 LEGO® Gifts with Purchase and LEGO® Insider Rewards promo code

The new LEGO® Gift with Purchase (GwP) for 1 July 2025 is now available as well as a new LEGO® Insiders reward! They are both LEGO® Ideas sets – 40788 Friendly Snails and 40789 Flying Moon Car – submitted by fans in competitions.

Furthermore, two June promotions are still running for a few days, making the first days of July an ever better time to buy sets. But if you also want new loose individual LEGO bricks, maybe wait a few hours – because later today, nearly 400 elements from March sets will be added to the Pick a Brick service, and these also count toward the GwP thresholds. 

LEGO® Pick a Brick: new elements added in July 2025

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!

Review: 76972 Raptor Off-Road Escape from LEGO® Jurassic World™

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.

A new velociraptor and the minifigure-scale interpretation of Dolores the baby aquilops (a protoceratopsian) are available in 76972 Raptor Off-Road Escape. Will the cuteness of the moulded form exceed that of the buildable baby dino Dolores from set 76970? All the details follow, and let us know what you think in the comments.

Review: 43008 Nike Dunk x LEGO® Set

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.

Parts review: June 2025 LEGO® Minecraft™ sets

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!
