Nine new LEGO sets revealed from LEGO Ideas Test Lab challenge

Nine brand new LEGO sets have been revealed from the latest LEGO Ideas Test Lab challenge, which tasked the platform’s ‘top creators’ with designing builds from a limited palette of bricks.

The LEGO Ideas Test Lab launched in 2017 to trial new functionality, features and experiences for the crowdsourcing platform. The latest of those tests involved a group of the platform’s users taking part in an invite-only building challenge, during which they had to come up with a small, customisable build using a limited number of LEGO bricks.

The Ideas team has now shared the results of that challenge, which are nine different brand new LEGO sets that will be available to purchase directly from LEGO.com in 2023. Seven of those will apparently be available ‘in the coming weeks’, while the remaining two – the Christmas Sock and Sugar Skull, each themed around a holiday – will be released later this year.

There’s no word yet on how much they’ll cost, or how they’ll be packaged, but the Pick a Brick team was responsible for choosing the winning designs. That suggests the models will be available to purchase through the Pick a Brick platform, making them effectively pre-selected parts lists. The builds in question range from a customisable billboard to a pair of robots. You can check them all out below.

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then. You can follow me on Twitter at @brfa_chris.

    Hello! Thanks today for sharing this (Beto_Builds here). I think one of the main features of the designs is that they will all be customizable at the time of purchase. We still don’t know exactly what it will be like. It’s exciting! [Corrected comment. Sorry again]
