BricksChatz – Dan Veesenmeyer
Last month we reviewed the latest LEGO® title from Klutz Books, LEGO NINJAGO: How to Draw Ninja, Villains & more. The book gives you a step-by-step guide on how you can draw your favourite characters from the world of NINJAGO. With this interesting new book set to be published in the UK next month, we chatted to Dan Veesenmeyer, the man behind the illustrations found in the book, for the very first of our BricksChatz features.

Click & Snap – NINJAGO By Night
We are absolutely blown away with set 70620: NINJAGO City and if you’ve been following us on social media, you’ll have see our snaps of the set in BricksFanz HQ’s sunny back garden. But as we sat watching the solar lights flicker to life when darkness fell, we had the urge to try snapping another picture and the results is – NINJAGO By Night. We are quite chuffed with the results so thought it deserved a little...

A Look At LEGO…. Pods
When The LEGO Batman Movie was released early this year, it also introduced us to the LEGO Pod, an all-new LEGO product which offers a compact micro playset contained in a clamshell pod. They are kind of reminiscent of the old Polly Pocket/Mighty Max toys from the early 90s. Currently there are four known sets available in the LEGO Pods line-up, each of which are tied to one of four current LEGO themes. The pods open up to reveal on...

LEGO At 85: Inside The LEGO Idea House
Earlier this year I had the privilege of flying over to Denmark and spending a few days in Billund – the home of LEGO®. So with the LEGO Group celebrating their 85th anniversary, it’s the perfect opportunity to share our experiences during our time in Billund. Over the course of my stay there, I got to visit LEGOLAND Billund, take a tour of the LEGO factory and have the unique opportunity to explore the LEGO Idea House....
