Another train is pulling into the station, this time it is LEGO® Icons 10361 Holiday Express Train.
We have already discussed the main controversial element within this set – the latest 3D printed offering from LEGO – but there's more to this train than one element. Let's see what else it has to offer.
It's a great week for LEGO® Gifts with Purchase because on top of the 40769 SEGA® Genesis™ Controller GwP, those purchasing 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship will receive the 5009609 Captain Jack Sparrow’s Compass GwP!
Join us as we delve for the treasures within this limited edition set... or might it be a cursed gift?
The LEGO Group have announced the inclusion of a 3D-printed blue train element in the October 2025 LEGO® Icons set 10361 Holiday Express Train, and sent us a copy.
While this is not the first LEGO 3D element by any means, it will be the first time one has appeared in a regular retail set with wide availability. This seems like a good opportunity to take a look at the LEGO 3D-printed parts we have encountered so far, and where they might take us.
The Black Pearl has been described on screen as ‘nigh uncatchable,’ ‘the finest ship to sail the seas,’ and even, in Captain Jack Sparrow’s words, ‘freedom.’ That’s a lot for a LEGO® set to live up to but the latest set from LEGO® Icons – 10365 Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Ship – makes a bold attempt to recreate this legendary ship in brick form.
Read on, mateys, as we explore the bounty of new parts included in the set and learn more about the design process from Senior Designer Mike Psiaki. Full speed ahead!

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.
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€!

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.
We just published Zach's review of LEGO® Icons 10353 Williams Racing FW14B and Nigel Mansell but the set was actually revealed to us in September 2024 during Fan Media Days, where Tim Johnson sat down with designer Gus McLaren to talk about the set.
The latest LEGO® Icons Lord of the Rings set is here, accompanied by a very precious Gift with Purchase: 40761 Sméagol and Déagol. Those who purchase 10354 The Shire between 2 and 8 April (while stocks last) will be eligible to receive this éagoly awaited GwP. We received an early copy for review, so let's go on a lovely family fishing adventure.
In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, but a hobbit hole made of LEGO® bricks! Today we journey back to Middle-earth to recreate Bilbo Baggins' famous abode, Bag End, in set 10354 The Shire.
The latest LEGO® Icons The Lord Of The Rings set, 10354 The Shire has been officially revealed. My through set review is coming soon, but here is a taster!
The first in what seems like a new collection of sets from LEGO® Icons has just been revealed: set 10362 French Café. Designed by Hoang Huy Dang, it will be released 1 March 2025.
Between 1 and 7 January 2025, all purchases of the LEGO® Icons 10350 Tudor Corner set will receive 40757 Corner Kiosk as a free gift with purchase (GwP), while stocks last – and it already appears to be sold out in some countries.
