  • Ep. 93 - Setting a High Bar - Harry Potter Gringotts Bank - Full Review
    Jul 9 2025

    Wands at the ready and wallets... trembling.

    In this episode, I’m diving deep into the magical marble halls of Gringotts Wizarding Bank with a full review of one of the most spellbinding, ambitious, and straight-up jaw-dropping LEGO Harry Potter sets ever released.

    We’re talking about the big one—a towering build that delivers vaults, dragons, goblets, and goblins, all packed into a single epic experience. From Harry and crew’s daring break-in to Vault 713, to the inclusion of the Ukrainian Ironbelly dragon (because what's a bank heist without a fire-breathing security system?), this set is practically a Hogwarts field trip in a box. And yes—it’s even compatible with Diagon Alley.

    This magical behemoth also comes with 13 minifigures, 11 of which are exclusive—so no filler figs here. Whether you’re a lifelong Potterhead or a LEGO lover who just appreciates expert design and storytelling, this is a build that casts a serious charm.

    But let’s not ignore the enchanted elephant in the room: the $430 price tag. Is it worth every Galleon? Or will this purchase leave your Gringotts vault echoing with regret? I’ll be unpacking the details, highlighting the highs (and a few lows), and sharing my honest take on whether this set lives up to the hype—or just feels like a Stupefy to your budget.

    Grab your Butterbeer, tune in, and let’s head down to the vaults of LEGO magic.

  • Ep. 92 - The Most Exclusive Experience on the Planet - The LEGO Inside Tour
    Jul 7 2025

    Ever wonder what lies behind the curtain at LEGO HQ? In this episode, we’re stepping into the brick-built promised land—the LEGO Inside Tour, an exclusive, invite-only, absolutely legendary experience held in Billund, Denmark, the birthplace of the brick itself.

    Only about 350 lucky fans get to go each year, and over the course of three unforgettable days, they get VIP access to the inner workings of LEGO: from secret design labs and molding machines to walking the same halls as LEGO legends. It's part history lesson, part innovation showcase, and 100% LEGO fan fantasy.

    But wait—it gets better. Participants also receive something few collectors can even dream of: an exclusive LEGO set designed just for Inside Tour attendees. We’re talking ultra-rare, never-sold-in-stores, instant-grail status kind of rare. Some of these sets have fetched $5,000+ on the aftermarket for just a few hundred pieces. Yep—you heard that right.

    In this podcast episode, I’ll walk you through the entire Inside Tour experience: the schedule, the surprises, the special perks, the emotional highs, and the financial… well, realities. Is it worth the hype? Is it worth the cost? Is this the ultimate bucket-list trip for LEGO lovers? Let’s dig into all of it.

    So grab your headphones and let’s go on the journey together—no passport required.

  • Ep. 91 - Mountain Windmill Set Review: A Bricklink Dream or Design Disaster?
    Jul 2 2025

    In this episode, we journey into the misty peaks of LEGO history to uncover one of the most enchanting and elusive sets ever produced: the Mountain Windmill (910003) from the Bricklink Designer Program. Part fantasy, part mystery, and 100% limited-edition LEGO magic, this HANWAS designed set has quietly become a cult favorite among AFOLs (well at least this AFOL)—and today, I’m giving it the spotlight it deserves.

    Originally launched through the crowd-funded Bricklink Designer Program back in 2021, the Mountain Windmill stood out in a sea of incredible submissions. Despite falling just shy of the 10,000-unit cap (clocking in at around 9,000 sets), it’s still a highly sought-after build from the program—and for good reason.

    With 1,890+ pieces and a retail price of $180, this set combines beautiful architecture, clever techniques, and a storybook setting straight out of a fantasy novel. According to lore, it sits high in the Boratis Mountains, nestled between ancient peaks, long abandoned and reclaimed by nature. Who lived there? What was it used for? The mystery only adds to the charm—and the play/display potential.

    In this review, I take you through the entire build: what works, what wows, and whether this retired rarity is worth the secondhand market price tag. Whether you’re a collector, a MOC enthusiast, or just here for some atmospheric LEGO vibes, this is one set that deserves a closer look.

    So grab your hiking boots and let’s climb the LEGO mountains together.

  • Ep. 90 - How LEGO Turned Fan Ideas Into BILLIONS
    Jun 30 2025

    Grab your minifigs and dust off your nostalgia, because in this episode we're taking a brick-built time machine back through the wild, wonderful world of LEGO Ideas—from its humble beginnings as LEGO CUUSOO to the fan-powered powerhouse it is today!

    Join me as I review the entire LEGO Ideas theme, exploring its fascinating history, unexpected hits, legendary misses, and the impact it’s had on the LEGO community at large. From NASA rockets to 90s sitcom apartments, playable pianos to pirate ships, Ideas has brought fan creativity to life like no other LEGO theme out there. But here’s the big question: Is LEGO Ideas the greatest LEGO theme ever? Or is it just a chaotic mishmash of nostalgia, pop culture, and highly-specific fandom dreams?

    I’ll be diving deep into the sets, the themes, the many surprises. Plus, I’ll be chatting about what the next 10 years of LEGO Ideas could look like. Modulars? More IPs? A giant brick-built goat? Anything is possible when the fans are in charge.

    Whether you’re a lifelong AFOL, a casual builder, or someone wondering how a typewriter became a LEGO set, this video is your ultimate guide to the most unpredictable and creative theme in the LEGO universe.

    Thanks for watching—and remember: all great ideas start with a single brick.

  • Ep. 89 - Classic Muscle Car Power - The Ford Mustang Full Review
    Jun 25 2025

    With LEGO’s brand-new Shelby Cobra 427 S/C set burning rubber into stores on July 1st, it felt like the perfect time to hit the gas and revisit the first LEGO Ford muscle car to ever grace the Creator Expert line—set 10265: the LEGO Ford Mustang.

    Originally released in 2019, this 1,471-piece V8-powered beauty delivers everything you’d want in a brick-built American icon. From the dark blue paint job and white racing stripes to the detailed interior and working steering, this thing oozes horsepower—and nostalgia. Plus, with all the customizable mods (lifted rear, supercharger, side exhausts, nitrous tank!), this Mustang lets you flex your inner gearhead in style.

    In this review, we’ll take a closer look at the model’s design, how well it holds up five years later, and whether it’s still worth hunting down for your collection—especially with the Shelby Cobra rolling into the LEGO Icons garage next.

    So is this the definitive LEGO muscle car, or has the Mustang been overtaken in the fast lane? Grab a wrench—or at least your brick separator—and let’s find out together!

  • Ep. 88 - The New LEGO Ideas Set is Huge!!! - 6/23/25 - News & Rumors

    BrickCast Ep. 79 – LEGO Ideas 2025 Review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnxHhdw9Dhk

    It’s another big week in the world of LEGO, and we’ve got a lot to talk about—so grab your bricks and buckle up because we’re kicking things off with the Bricklink Designer Program, where time is literally running out. Series 5 orders officially close on June 24th at 10AM CTE, so if there’s a set you’ve been eyeing, now’s the moment to act. Plus, if you’ve been patiently (or not-so-patiently) waiting on your Series 4 sets, good news—they should be shipping out very soon.

    Next, we’re diving into the latest LEGO Ideas selections, and let’s just say... one of them is absolutely massive. Think building-sized, city-flattening, tail-swinging kind of massive. The other? Well… let’s just say it might not leave as much of an impression. I break down both new picks and what we can expect from the remaining LEGO Ideas sets coming in 2025.

    And just when you think we’re done—I’ve saved the best for last: the brand-new LEGO Inside Tour set has been revealed! It’s jaw-droppingly good, loaded with exclusive details, and, of course, almost impossible for normal humans to actually own. But that won’t stop us from drooling over it together.

    Rumors, reveals, and a few hot takes—it’s all here in this week’s episode. Let’s talk LEGO!

  • Ep. 87 - LEGO Just Changed the Game Forever
    Jun 18 2025

    A Tipping Point: the point at which a series of small changes or incidents becomes significant enough to cause a larger, more important change.

    In this episode, I’m diving deep into what might just be LEGO’s very own tipping point—hidden in plain sight in the latest Bricklink Designer Program pre-order release. On the surface, it’s a minor tweak. A blip. The kind of change most people would scroll past without a second thought. But I’m here to argue that this small adjustment might be the first domino in a chain reaction that could reshape the future of the Bricklink Designer Series—and maybe even LEGO itself.

    Sound dramatic? Maybe. But history is full of these seemingly tiny decisions that—over time—become the moment everything changes. We’ve seen it before: beloved companies overstepping, underestimating their fan base, or pushing forward without realizing they’re slowly pulling the rug out from under their own foundation.

    Could this be that moment for LEGO? Or is this the bold move that propels them into a new golden age of fan-driven design, investment-worthy sets, and deeper collaboration with the community?

    In this episode, I’m not just reviewing a product release—I’m unpacking the broader implications, asking tough questions, drawing parallels to other industries, and yes, getting a little worked up along the way. This one’s part rant, part reflection, and all heart.

    So grab your favorite brew (make it a strong one), because I’m going long. By the time we reach the end, you might be thinking I’ve completely lost my mind… or you might find yourself nodding along, wondering if this really is the moment where everything starts to shift.

    Will LEGO follow the yellow brick road? Or are we watching the early steps down a more uncertain path?

    Either way, this episode is one you don’t want to miss.
