Well, Rome wasn't built in a day - and neither was our new light kit for the LEGO Expert Creator Colosseum!   Light My Bricks fans have been asking since the sets release "will you design a light kit for the Colosseum?" and "when is the light kit for the Colosseum going to be released?!".

The extended delay from LEGO set release and light kit availability was the result of a few different factors. First, when the LEGO announced the set back in November of last year, it wasn't obvious to our te ..read more

It seems the team at LEGO can read our minds from time to time over here at LMBHQ. Just when we were starting to mumble about wanting a new auto project to work on, LEGO goes ahead and announces the TECHNIC Ferrari 488 GTE ‘AF Corse #51’ An awesome looking TECHNIC set, the GTE appears to contain the same level of amazing detail as a Supercar, such as Lamborghini Sian or the Porsche 911 GT3 - just at a smaller scale, which helps with build time... and with the wallet! At a reasonable piece count of 1677 our team had the GTE built in around 5 hours total, though a chunk of that was taken up app ..read more

"Follow the light to a truly moving experience.' - LEGO. The LEGO Motorised Lighthouse #21335 was a truly welcome surprise after a string of movie and game-inspired sets.
