This morning on the Xbox blog and elsewhere, it was announced that LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga will be releasing on April 5, 2022. They also shared a six-minute trailer showcasing the game and its features. It looks like they might be adding aim-down-sights to the blaster mechanics and the dog-fighting looks great! The world also seems huge, justifying the tagline of the 'biggest LEGO Star Wars game,' and I'm excited to check out the upgradeable skills. All-in-all, April can't come soon enough, and I know what we'll be doing for our Twitch Tuesday streams for quite some time to come!

Last week the LEGO Ideas team shared a behind the scenes look at the recently-released 21331 Sonic the Hedgehog Green Hill Zone set. You can head over to YouTube to watch the designer video and hear from LEGO Ideas Design Manager Samuel Liltorp Johnson and Senior Graphic Designer Lauren Cullen King about the process and care that went into taking Vivian's model from concept to reality. It was really interesting to hear that they actually had to change some of their printing processes to achieve the desired look of Doctor Eggman's face. Go check it out to learn about everything from the design to some of the hidden easter eggs!

Earlier this week, LEGO Ideas closed out submissions for their third review of 2021, and 36 different projects managed to qualify. There's a lot of variety in the projects, which range from fantasy to sci-fi, from technology to nature, from small to large to extra large, and with a lot of different franchises featured among them. There's bound to be some excitement (and disappointment) once the review results are released for all of these. Which ones are your favorites?

Today we're going to do something a little bit different. Instead of looking at an official LEGO set, we're going to look at a supplemental fan designed parts. Crazy Legs by CrazyBricks was a Kickstarter that went on last year, and BZPower Reporter Xccj just received a batch. Read on to see what they're like.  

LEGO may no longer be providing a calendar for monthly deals, but they still plan to have them every now and then. To celebrate the release of the 2022 Chinese Traditional Festival sets, there are two gifts with purchases available from Shop.Lego.com. First, if you spend $85 or more on any set, you get 40491 Year of the Tiger for free. That should also stack with the second deal, which is if you spend $40 or more on Monkie Kid or Ninjago sets, you get 30562 Monkie Kid's Underwater Journey polybag for free. These are some enticing deals to help you celebrate the Year of the Tiger.

We're diving into another 2021 Ninjago set review. Today BZPower Reporter Xccj examines 71754 Water Dragon to see if this wets your appetite for dragon sets. Read on for more details, or check out the Instagram story.  

Okay, it may be 2022, but there were still some 2021 sets on the backlog that are ready for a review. Today BZPower Reporter Xccj looks at a Ninjago Legacy set, 71753 Fire Dragon Attack, to see how this stacks up against other Ninjago Dragons. Read on for some pictures and thoughts on the set, or check out the Instagram story  

LEGO has produced some brilliant Lord of the Rings sets in its time, but that theme has come and gone with many fans clamoring for more. The latest LEGO Ideas iteration of Minas Tirith gained 10,000 votes and its builder, GJC15344, shares his passion for the LEGO hobby, the Middle Earth mythology, and more in his new interview. Check it out and then cross your fingers that maybe, finally, LEGO will revisit this iconic story.
