Happy Easter, everyone! I stopped by my local LEGO Bricks & Minifigs franchise yesterday, and right near the entrance, they had a beautiful display of LEGO Easter and Botanical sets. I was told the latter are especially popular during the Easter season. If you have a location near you, I highly recommend checking them out. While the stores are smaller than official LEGO shops, there are now over 240 locations across the U.S. They specialize in buying, selling, and trading new and used LEGO sets and accessories, and many locations also feature play areas, loose brick bins, and minifigure stations.

Speaking of the LEGO Botanical Collection, there are some really lovely releases this year, including the #11501 LEGO Tulip Bouquet, #11502 LEGO Sunflower Bouquet, #11503 LEGO Flower Wall, and #11510 LEGO Magnolia Branches. If you prefer potted plants, the #11504 LEGO Peace Lily is especially elegant, while the #11509 LEGO Flowering Cactus adds a fun and playful touch. You can find all of these in the LEGO Botanical Collection section of the Online LEGO Shop.

As for seasonal sets, I’m really fond of the #40890 LEGO Easter Decorations and the #40957 LEGO Spring Wreath. Both are available in the seasonal section of the Online LEGO Shop and make great additions to spring décor.

This weekend, I’m planning to build the #31220 LEGO Art Claude Monet – Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies. It’s not specifically an Easter set, but its soft colors and floral theme feel perfect for the season. I will write up on my thoughts on it once I finish building.

What about you? Are you building anything this holiday weekend? Feel free to share and discuss in the comment section below!

April 2026 – New LEGO Sets & Promotions

After so many new releases in the first quarter of the year, we’re getting a smaller wave of new sets in April. This is not a bad thing, though, as it allows LEGO fans to focus on building and customizing their favorite sets from the earlier selection. But let’s take a look at what’s new!

The #40878 LEGO BrickHeadz Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Figures set features all four characters in brick-built form for $39.99. Available at the LEGO BrickHeadz section of the Online LEGO Shop.

The #40954 LEGO Creator Germany Postcard for $14.99 is the latest in the LEGO Creator Postcard collection, following New York, Beijing, Paris, London, Australia, Japan, and Italy. These small sets are quite clever with 3D and forced-perspective effects. You can find them at the LEGO Creator section of the Online LEGO Shop.

One of the larger sets this month is the #11378 LEGO Icons Douglas DC‑3 PAN AM Airliner, priced at $219.99. This authentic replica of the legendary 1930s twin-engine aircraft features a detailed cockpit and passenger cabin, retractable landing gear, and a sleek exterior with the late 1950s Pan Am color scheme. Remove fuselage sections to explore the interior details, and display the model aircraft on its stand, complete with an information plaque. The set also includes 4 minifigures with historical Pan Am aircrew uniforms, including a pilot, stewardess, flight attendant, and purser, plus a Pan Am-branded minifigure display stand. Available at the LEGO Icons section of the Online LEGO Shop.

The #21367 LEGO Ideas Tintin Moon Rocket is also now available for $159.99. The set captures the red and white markings of the rocket ship, as seen in classic comic books Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon. The 5 minifigures are all in space suits with helmets and oxygen tanks (Tintin and Captain Haddock also each have radio accessories), plus a Snowy® figure. You can remove a panel from the rocket’s cone to reveal a detailed control room. Pose a character in the room, recalling the magical moment from Explorers on the Moon when Tintin’s crew saw the Earth for the first time from space. Available at the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Several LEGO Star Wars sets will be released towards the end of the month (April 26th), including the #40856 LEGO Star Wars The Mandalorian and Grogu: Allies & Villains for $39.99, the #75438 LEGO Star Wars Yoda Bust for $39.99, the #75439 LEGO Star Wars Darth Vader Bust for $49.99, the #75444 LEGO Star Wars AT-RT Attack for $44.99, the #75445 LEGO Star Wars Anzellan Starship for $74.99, the #75447 LEGO Star Wars The Razor Crest for $149.99, and the #75460 LEGO Star Wars New Republic X-Wing Starfighter for $69.99. You can find them all at the LEGO Star Wars section of the Online LEGO Shop.
