Let’s see what surprises the White Continent will bring this time. 60190 Arctic Ice Glider | 50 pieces | $6.99 USD | Available Aug. 1 The ice glider is the smallest set of the City sub-theme utilising the format of the good old 6577 Snow Scooter set from year 2000.

At the LEGO Fall Preview 2018 event we got a chance to take a look at the new LEGO City trains that were revealed yesterday. The designers have chosen to stick with a familiar theme that includes another modern passenger train as well as an industrial type train. We’ve also got a first look at a few new track packs that will be coming earlier in the summer. Let’s take a look at what’s in store. 60197 Passenger Train | 677 pieces | $159.99 USD | Available Aug. 1 The last time that LEGO released new trains, the High Speed Passenger Train set 60051 was almost entirely white, before that it was almost all red. This time they gave the train a little pop of multi-color, with yellow and dark blue. The style and layout is very similar, but this set only has an engine on one end. This set also includes...

LEGO’s event today in New York City has unveiled more of the LEGO Star Wars sets that the company had held back from Toy Fair in February. Although much of the event is focused on the current product assortment, including sets like 75208 Yoda’s Hut and all of the Solo: A Star Wars Story LEGO sets, the event has given us a look at some exciting new sets being released over the next few months. 75214 Anakin’s Jedi Starfighter | 247 pieces | $19.99 | Available August 1 No matter what you think of the Prequel Trilogy, you can probably agree that Obi-wan’s Jedi starfighter with its enormous hyperdrive ring looks pretty cool, as seen in the current 75191 Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive. The Delta-7 Aethersprite-class light interceptor is a frequent subject of LEGO sets, with and without the hyperdrive ring. Nevertheless, it’s been 10 years since LEGO released an update...

For the first time we are seeing the entire brick-built Basilisk snake and Mirror of Erised, and it looks like the model has been simplified slightly from the prototype we saw at the New York Toy Fair, resting on a flat base rather than...
