Review: 21375 Godzilla from LEGO® Ideas

Godzilla is the king of monsters. Introduced in the eponymous 1954 movie, Godzilla has spawned loads of sequels and reboots both in its native Japan and in Hollywood. Godzilla is not only incredibly large and violent, but is also able to shoot destructive heat rays; truly a remarkable, iconic creature, and absent from any official LEGO® depictions until now. 

Its 5,363 pieces make 21375 Godzilla the 24th largest LEGO set to date – and the largest from LEGO® Ideas. More importantly, this is the largest set depicting one character or creature. The original LEGO Godzilla proposal was designed by fan Matthew Esposito, but the creature was completely redesigned on a larger scale by Markus Rollbühler as model designer and the LEGO Ideas team led by Jordan David Scott, both of whom spoke at a roundtable interview I attended.

LEGO® Pick a Brick: November 2026 new elements

On Tuesday, 3 November 2026 about 70 new elements were added to LEGO® Pick a Brick (PaB). The included elements are from sets released in July and include exciting Classic Space and Castle pieces – the bright light blue astronaut and baby and elements from the gift with purchase (GwP) 40912 Sea Serpent – however, several of these will not be added to the USA & Canada store until December at the earliest. To reserve stock levels and make things fairer for all, temporary limits have been placed globally on quantities of these parts.

Read on for more detail or view the list of November PaB now.

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

I've created a list showing the 80 new elements within the November 2026 LEGO® sets.

The list is pretty short, as November brings only 4 regular sets, 3 Gift with Purchase sets and 5 Bricklink Designer Program sets. There are still some interesting items though; read on for details.

Don't forget also that new Pick a Brick elements are available from tomorrow, Tuesday 3 November!

Review: 72154 Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball from LEGO® Pokémon™

Pokémon™fans have been asking for Pokémon minifigures for some time and finally their dreams have come true, well, as long as you also love LEGO® Technic. LEGO® Pokémon™ 72154 Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball was released on 1 October 2026 with the hefty price tag of US$299.99/ £229.99/ 259.99€/ AU$429.99. Let's see if the new elements within the set help justify this price tag with iconic moments inside.

Review: part 8057 and set 77120 Shadow's Mech vs. G.U.N. Trooper from LEGO® Sonic the Hedgehog™

Something is afoot with LEGO® Sonic the Hedgehog™ 77120 Shadow's Mech vs. G.U.N. Trooper. Today I take a look at the new 2 x 4 plate with ball joint, before analysing the other parts and the construction of the set that introduced it.

Review: GwP 40889 Build, Paint and Play from LEGO® Ideas

40889 Build, Paint and Play from LEGO® Ideas is a gift with purchase (GwP) set, which means you can't simply pick it up in store or order it online. You have to meet the predetermined spend threshold at LEGO to receive the set as a "free" additional bonus; the added anxiety for collectors here being the inevitable "while stocks last" disclaimer. The threshold is US$130/ £115/ 130€/ AU$210 and the set launches on Wednesday 28 October 2026.

There aren't any new moulds, which is entirely expected, but there are two very welcome recolours that will please Classic Space fanatics.

Parts review + MOCs: 43017 Oscar Piastri Helmet & 43023 Lando Norris Helmet from LEGO® Editions

In May 2026, two Formula 1® Scuderia Ferrari HP helmet models were released by the LEGO® Editions theme: 43022 Lewis Hamilton & 43014 Charles Leclerc, which were reviewed by Elspeth. She paid attention to both the mind-boggling construction and some really weird new pieces. I was a bit torn on these sets: on one hand, their MOC-like structure and use of various curved pieces was really interesting; on the other, they were covered with brand prints, and I have no interest in making MOCs "sponsored" by Unicredit, IBM and Shell. 

When two more helmets were released in June with (almost) no sponsor prints but still covered in unique patterns and made in rare colours, I was surprised and excited. My main focus in the LEGO hobby is building MOCs, and the two sets, 43017 McLaren Mastercard F1 Team Oscar Piastri Helmet and 43023 McLaren Mastercard F1 Team Lando Norris Helmet looked really inspiring for MOCs. Today, I'll review the interesting parts of these sets – and there are lots of them – and then present three new MOCs inspired by their printed pieces. 

Review: 77264 Jaguar Project 7 & Land Rover Defender from LEGO® Speed Champions

LEGO® Speed Champions set 77264 Jaguar Project 7 & Land Rover Defender comes with several recolours, exclusive prints and two builds that couldn't be more different from each other – aside from the fact they're both cars, of course!

LEGO® Creator decor: 31383 Floral Perfume Bottle, 31390 Floral Art Painting & 31392 Music Piano with Cat

The June 2026 LEGO® Creator 3-in-1 releases provided three "decor" sets with a pastel colour palette. I received two copies of 31383 Floral Decor Perfume Bottle and one each of 31392 Music Decor Piano with Cat and 31390 Floral Art Decor Painting to use in my own mini parts-fest, to make MOCs with some of the interesting pieces.

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

I've created a list showing the 230 new elements within the October 2026 LEGO® sets, now updated with pieces from the LEGO® Super Heroes Marvel sets released on 4 October, based on the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday movie.
