So long 2020, you sucked
What a year.
I am sure most people would agree that 2020 was a year full of challenges. That was no exception for me and by extension Bricking Around.
At the start of the year I had to step away from the site for a while as I dealt with a personal matter. It took a while for me to get back to things and to be honest the site isn’t back to where I wanted it to be going in to 2020.
Of course there was also a global pandemic. Being from Brisbane this wasn’t as bad as it could have been and was for others. I hope that the situation in NSW improves rapidly.
I want to thank each and every Bricking Around reader who came to the site in 2020. It honestly means a lot knowing that people might enjoy what I’m doing here.
What’s the plan for 2021?
More timely reviews
Looking at my pile of Jan 1st review sets I’m not holding out a lot of hope for this one but it’s good to have goals. Hopefully in 2021 I can get reviews out before they become irrelevant.
Videos
I really want to start producing video content in 2021. I know I’m not going to be the next great YouTube LEGO personality but I want to try and share my views on stuff in a new format.
Engaging content
My goal is always for people to enjoy what I’m doing, so in 2021 I really want to create content that is fun and interesting and worthy of sharing.
Great sales coverage
LEGO sales are the bread and butter of Bricking Around and I really want to refocus my efforts on getting the Bricking Around community the best LEGO deals possible.
Fun
LEGO is meant to be fun. So more than anything in 2021 I want to have fun with LEGO.
Bonsai and Flower Bouquet are $89.99 each, available Jan 1
LEGO has today officially revealed details of the Botanical collection. We’ve already seen pics of these but we now know that both sets have an Australian RRP of $89.99 and will be released January 1st. Check the links below for more details of each set.
10281 Bonsai Tree
10280 Flower Bouquet
Which of these two are you most excited for, or are you planning to get both?
Over 100 sets coming soon – Which ones are you getting?
January 1st will not only bring an end to 2020, it will also see a heap of new LEGO sets released. With over 100 sets listed on the LEGO website as coming soon there is plenty to consider. Will you invest in the new road plate system in LEGO City? Or is the latest modular on your wish list?
Below you’ll find a table of all the coming soon sets with Australian pricing. The catalogue isn’t out yet so we don’t know exactly when these sets will hit stores (hopefully the catalogue will be out early in the new year).
Let me know in the comments what you are planning to get.
Crazy Monkie Kid prices at Target
Monkie Kid was a theme that when it was released had no regular retail release planned. Now, it’s almost 2021 and the sets are hitting the stores now. But from what I’ve heard there is A LOT of them and Target are already offering deep discounts.
There is up to 50% off some of these sets so I suggest you check out the range. Obviously stores are closed today but these online prices should be in-store too when you can get in there.
The online range can be found here.
Thanks to everybody who emailed me about this
Merry Christmas
2020 has been a rough year, I hope you all have time today to do whatever it is that makes you happy.
Amazon’s Boxing Day sale is live now
It’s only Christmas Eve but Amazon have already gone live with a heap of Boxing Day deals! There are a few different LEGO offers currently active and possibly more going live over the next few days.
Here’s an overview of what I can currently see…
Save on selected sets
This one is a bit of a random mix of stuff.
Up to 22% off selected Star Wars and Harry Potter
A very small selection across these two themes.
Up to 30% off selected City, Creator and Architecture
Again, a very small selection
Up to 29% off selected LEGO
Another random mix. There’s some Mario stuff in this batch.
Up to 31% off selected Friends and Duplo
A couple of the larger Friends jungle sets are included and could be worth checking out.

Thanks to Matt for the heads up.
On sale: Up to 30% off selected sets at Amazon
It’s currently that awkward period where the pre-Christmas sales have mostly wrapped up and the post-Christmas ones haven’t really kicked off yet. But don’t worry, because Amazon is here with some discounts.
This is a bit of a random line-up of sets but I’ve definitely seen worse sales.
You can check out the range for yourself here. [affiliate link]
Please note that you probably won’t get these delivered by Christmas. If you want to take a gamble on it you can though.
Rejected LEGO Ideas projects to get second chance on BrickLink
LEGO has today announced a new initiative that may give hope to anybody who has felt the bitter disappointment of seeing their favourite Ideas submission rejected.
Going forward, a project that reaches 10k votes but is not made in to an official set might be moved over to the BrickLink Designer Program. This means the set will be produced and packaged up but will have a very limited release through BrickLink.
Not every rejected project will get the BrickLink Designer Program treatment and that is still at the discretion of LEGO (who own BrickLink now). One fairly obvious caveat is that any licenced projects won’t be eligible for the BrickLink Designer Program.
LEGO will be testing out the concept by going back through the archive of rejected 10k projects and selecting some for a pilot. LEGO hasn’t announced which previous projects will be the first to get the BrickLink treatment but expect announcements about this in 2021.
You can read more about the plan here on the LEGO Ideas blog.
On Sale: 20% off at Myer
You are probably cutting it close for delivery of online orders but if you do still have some Christmas shopping to do then you might want to give this one a look.
This weekend is a Super Weekend at Myer with 20% off most LEGO. There are of course exceptions: Art, Creator Expert, Ideas, Super Mario, 51515 Mindstorm, 71043 Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle, 76139 Batmobile And 42115 Lamborghini Sian Fkp 37. I feel like that list gets longer every time I post it.
If you are after something not on that list you can find the Myer LEGO range here. [affiliate link]
The sale ends on Sunday night.
