LEGO Ideas review heats up as four fan builds cross 10K in a flash

July has started with a bang for LEGO Ideas fan designers, with four projects reaching the 10,000 supporter milestone within just a few hours of each other.

The wave of impressive fan builds shows no sign of slowing in 2026, with 40 submissions now reaching the 10k supporter threshold in the second LEGO Ideas review of 2026. After opening in May, this review period doesn’t close until September 7, putting us just past the halfway point of the current cycle.

The four projects to hit the milestone span a wide range of themes, from an Italian seaside streetscape to coming-of-age drama, with a classic children’s character and a nu metal album cover also making the cut.

LEGO Ideas Naples Corner

Technically, this submission reached the 10,000 supporter milestone late on June 30, making it the final qualifying project of the month. ANDREA BRICKOSO’s build is a modular-style model made up of three buildings inspired by Naples, overlooking the sea. It contains 4,600 pieces, 14 minifigures, and measures 37cm high, 35cm wide, and 32cm deep. The model features a museum, pizzeria, wine cellar, and apartments, along with vehicles, boats, and 10 animals.

LEGO Ideas Paddington Bear

LEGO Ideas Paddington Bear is a 1,150-piece model of the iconic Peruvian bear, who first debuted in 1958. Bricked1980 previously designed a version of Paddington that reached 10,000 supporters but was not approved. This updated submission marks a second successful push to the milestone. The model includes a removable hat hiding a marmalade sandwich, an opening suitcase filled with Easter eggs, and a removable Paddington figure.

LEGO Ideas The Summer I Turned Pretty

Based on the Amazon television series of the same name, LEGO Ideas The Summer I Turned Pretty is a 5,000-piece recreation of the show’s beach house. Designer Santheg created the build after their wife became hooked on the series. The open-backed house design features fully detailed interiors, a garden, a red SUV, and seven minifigures.

LEGO Ideas HYBRID THEORY Album Cover From LINKIN PARK

Although it was only submitted on May 18, 2026, Zihnisinir_61’s LEGO Ideas HYBRID THEORY Album Cover From LINKIN PARK has rapidly reached the 10,000 supporter milestone. While no piece count has been provided, the model appears to be a substantial display piece, featuring the winged figure from the album cover alongside the album title and band logos.
