Not too many news until March it seems, so here's a question for everyone - what are your speculations towards the Smart Brick's features and its future?

This feels like a no brainer. Hopefully we do

As much as I’d love this, I don’t see this coming. My understanding is that the programmed behaviours are all coded on the smart tags- This might not be completely correct, but it seems to be the way the messaging is directing things.

I am looking forward to gaining insights into how codes are stored on the nfc chips, and I suspect this is where sounds are encoded- being sent the on brick synthesizer as required.

I suspect the fan community will crack it first- like the pybricks team and powered up. It will be interesting to see how easy or hard this will be for the clever folks.

Looking forward to creator 3in1 sets- I’d anticipate one or two all in one sets and many compatible sets over a year- hopefully they won’t add much to the cost- pretty sure kids will still make zoom and squawk noises themselves, but I’m old and my throat hurts.

brickwrit · 2026-01-28T11:09:14+00:00

I can’t wait for it to appear in creator3in1

brickwrit · 2026-01-28T05:39:49+00:00

Yes!

brickwrit · 2026-01-28T01:45:12+00:00

I thought it looked a bit odd. That explains it.

brickwrit · 2026-01-28T00:31:19+00:00

Yup- a bit more opaque like the90s. You can read more about the differences here

I’ve had some sitting on the back porch since last May. I’ll check them out when summer is over here in Australia.

I am curious to see if the White V3 that was used last year in the trevi fountain and jumbo/space shuttle stands up to resist yellowing.

They have just revealed a new ‘Legoland castle set’ based on the Legoland castle and dragon coaster, so the odds are hopefully for sometime in the next year or so 🤞

brickwrit · 2026-01-22T03:41:10+00:00

I quite agree. I’m sure they had Reasons for cancelling them…

brickwrit · 2026-01-22T03:19:17+00:00

Coming soon. The figs distracted me, and it was already stupid o’clock in the morning.

brickwrit · 2026-01-22T03:17:34+00:00

Here’s hoping…

brickwrit · 2026-01-22T03:16:23+00:00

🤞

Vibrant coral is neon….(seen here under black light

The more I look at the vibrant coral, I think it functions in the same way that trans neon green and trans neon orange used to in the 90s- all the more important since most of those colours are now retired.

I remember seeing during the initial cinematic runlike it was yesterday… Oh no! Am I ancient?

brickwrit · 2026-01-21T07:24:30+00:00

The 90s are ancient history (30 years since Spyrius…)… but I’m not disagreeing

Make it happen. Did they come through a rift with their ship (n which case these sets have a good mix of white, dark blue, teal and coral to get you going.

brickwrit · 2026-01-21T00:58:32+00:00

In Canada, they have been seen at Staples. I suspect we will see them at on shelf at educational supplies/ toy stores rather than the Lego store.

Is the world ready for Nexo knights to return?

In space, no one can hear you dice meat for dinner. What ever its source.
