Review: 10352 The Simpsons™: Krusty Burger from LEGO® Icons

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.

Review: 76974 Brick-built Mosasaurus Boat Mission from LEGO® Jurassic World™

LEGO® Jurassic World™ sets have rarely contained brick-built dinosaurs, but the June 2025 offering 76974 Brick-built Mosasaurus Boat Mission depicts some new heroes on an adventure with a brick-built beast of impressive dimensions. The mosasaurus is not a dinosaur, it's a prehistoric marine reptile of epic proportions, so will the LEGO interpretation float my boat or leave me at sea?

LEGO® Pythagorean triangles: Escaping the grid

Arno Knobbe (@legoarno on Instagram) completes his popular trilogy of guest articles today, gently introducing you to the math behind useful techniques for building at diagonals to the LEGO® grid. If you missed them, you may wish to read the others first – Part 1: building at angles, and Part 2: techniques with reflected wedges.

Building a triangle naturally forces you to escape the LEGO® grid. Sure, you can align 2 sides with the grid – creating a right triangle – but the third side will have to be diagonal. As soon as you try this, you run into trouble: most dimensions will not lead to easy connections at the 2 corners involved, neither with hinge plates nor regular stud-antistud connections. The age-old answer to this challenge, that most builders will be familiar with, is the Pythagorean triangle. Today’s article is my modern take on this millennia-old technique.
