THE LEGO 43222 DISNEY CASTLE CELEBRATES 100 YEARS OF DISNEY [NEWS]

After its predecessor was retired only six months ago, LEGO has announced the
new 43222 Disney Castle as a part of their line of Disney100 sets released this
year. Debuting later this summer, the castle features four Disney princess
minifigures and their corresponding love interests: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider,
Tiana and Prince Naveen, Snow White and Prince Florian, and Cinderella and
Prince Charming. The back of the model is chock full of references to Disney’s
100-year history, spread throughout its many rooms and towers. This is the
largest classic Disney set yet, clocking in at 4,837 pieces, beating the last
castle by almost 800 pieces. The set will be available for VIPs starting on July
1st, with open access at LEGO stores and at LEGO.com on July 4th. To sweeten the
pot for early shoppers, there is a gift-with-purchase titled Disney 100 Years
Celebration (not pictured) available with select LEGO Disney purchases over USD
$TBD | CAN $TBD | UK £95 from July 1st – 9th. 43222 Disney Castle will take you
well over that limit, retailing for US $399.99 | CAN $519.99 | UK £344.99

A MÛMAKIL KILL STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE

My wife and I are re-reading The Lord of the Rings together after having done so
22 years ago before the first Peter Jackson movie was released. By sheer
coincidence, on the same day we read the chapter about the Battle of Pelennor
Fields in The Return of the King, Kiwi builder Pieter Dennison shared the
conclusion of a months-long project to recreate a Mûmak or Oliphaunt of the
Haradrim in LEGO, based on how they appear in the movies.



Pieter’s build features all the iconic details of the enormous beast, from its
four tusks (built from a series of 2×2 round bricks presumably strung on
something like flex-tube), each with spikes on the end, to the war tower on the
monstrous beast’s back. A closer look at the war tower shows just how huge this
LEGO build really is, with about a score of minifigs riding into battle against
the Rohirrim and men of Gondor.



If you want to see this in person, you can see it at the Christchurch Brick Show
this July. And don’t miss all the other LEGO Oliphaunts we’ve featured over the
years (also proving that this quote is the only one I ever use to write about
this creature).

LEGO ICONS 10320 ELDORADO FORTRESS: SEARCHING FOR PIRATE GOLD [REVIEW]

The Pirates line was a seminal theme for LEGO, introducing hoards of new
elements and many things we take for granted now, such as unique faces beyond
the classic smiley head. One of the largest and most sought-after sets from the
original theme was 6276 Eldorado Fortress, a colonial-style base of operations
for the blue-coated Imperial Guards. 10320 Eldorado Fortress is a remake of that
iconic set taking advantage of 34 years of advancement in parts and techniques
since the original. LEGO has avoided straight re-releases in recent years (with
some notable exceptions), opting instead to tribute classics for the company’s
90th anniversary in 2022, with 10497 Galaxy Explorer as a modern upgrade to the
original set, while 10305 Lion Knights’ Castle pays homage to a whole generation
of Castle. Although the anniversary has passed, I am excited that LEGO has
continued that nostalgia trend, turning its eye now to my personal favorite
theme, Pirates. With 2,509 pieces, the new Eldorado Fortress nearly quintuples
the original set’s 506 parts, though thankfully the price increases by a lesser
margin, as the original was $66 in 1989 (about $161 in today’s dollars). The new
set will retail for US $214.99 | CAN $279.99 | UK £189.99 when it’s available
starting July 4 for VIP members (general availability will follow on July 7).



The LEGO Group provided The Brothers Brick with an early copy of this set for

THE MAJESTY OF THE BIOCUP

We get through all sorts of superlatives to describe LEGO builds here at The
Brothers Brick, but there’s surely only one way to describe MySnailEatsPizza‘s
Children of the Mountain: majestic. Isn’t it just? It’s reminiscent of the way
monarchs were painted in the middle ages. The framing coupled with the forced
perspective mountains make this look truly epic. We don’t know who this
character is, or what their purpose is, or where they’re going; but that’s not
necessary. All we know is that they’re doing it in style.

HOW ANOMALOCARIS, OPABINIA, AND THE CAMBRIAN EXPLOSION CHANGED MY LIFE

The broad range of wonderful LEGO creations built for events like the annual
BioCup often spark odd memories of my own life experiences. This beautiful
Anomalocaris by Care Creations reminded me of Stephen Jay Gould’s 1989 book
Wonderful Life, which first introduced me to the panoply of fantastic lifeforms
that emerged during the Cambrian Explosion over half a billion years ago. The
book changed my view of how life emerged and evolved on our planet, as well as
how scientific understanding itself evolves — both mind-blowing to a young
missionary kid. One of the strengths of Bionicle is the system’s ability to
reproduce organic shapes, enabling talented builders to create much more than
Toa.



I love the minifigure hands on the ends of Anomalocaris’ tentacles, as well as
all the smaller creatures the builder has included to give the impression of the
early arthropod in its natural habitat.

If you enjoyed this ancient sea creature as much as I did, you’ll love these
other Cambrian creatures, as well as this beautiful LEGO ammonite (though of
course ammonites emerged about a hundred million years later).

A TRIP IN THE BRICK TO BORDEAUX

I’ve said it before, but I love being able to travel vicariously through LEGO
models. The Architecture series has a lot of the famous landmarks covered, but
for the more day-to-day infrastructure, we need to turn to people like Justus M.
Having visited the town of Bordeaux in south-western France, he took it upon
himself to recreate some of the old architecture. Having been to France (albeit
not to Bordeaux itself) quite a lot as a kid, I think I can say he’s nailed it!
You can quite easily picture someone sitting outside with a coffee and a
croissant. It’s enough to make me want to go back there. Magnifique, Justus!

A LITTLE LEGO “BIG THAW” FROM THE ICE AGE MOVIES

Please enjoy this LEGO-ized miniature Manny and super-small Sid from the Ice Age
franchise, brought to you by Oliver Becker. His microscale scene depicts our two
protagonists as they venture out at the end of the titular era. We even see
Scrat in the foreground trying to hide his 1×1 round plate in the ice. The
miniature scenery is quite nice, but the character builds are the real stars of
the show. The tread links for Scrat’s arms and legs are brilliant, showing such
ingenuity at this tiny scale. And the brickwork to emulate Sid’s triangular face
is astounding! But of course, Manny has to put the “woolly” in woolly mammoth
with the use of a minifig hair piece as his head. Much like with the movies,
here’s hoping we get a sequel!

BEHOLD THE LAST WISTERIA

The Brothers Brick alumni Nannan Zhang has a knack for creating innovative and
breathtaking worlds in LEGO. His specialty seems to be mixing manmade devices
with biological elements and this stunning The Last Wisteria is no exception.
Let me rephrase that; it’s quite exceptional. His grasp for integrating shapes
and colors demonstrates the abilities of a true artist. The tree’s roots
intermingled among cold hexagonal tiles are truly awe-inspiring. Even the
wisteria’s leaves have a neat order to them. As capable as I like to think I am,
even my own words don’t do this piece justice so instead, we’ll let Nannan use
his; Among rapid cybernetic hybridization, a thing of beauty flourishes above
the metallic earth.. A thing of beauty, indeed. Check out our Nannan Zhang
archives to see why sometimes we’re lost for words but we still try anyway.

WHEN DIESELPUNK ART IMITATES DIESELPUNK ART

This new LEGO creation by Sandro Quattrini and we’re all pretty thrilled, by
golly. I’m loving the intricate details, the ape-like stance, and the fact that
this thing resembles a walking airplane. I seriously want to live in this world
for a little while. It turns out that you can as this is based on the work of
famed concept artist Emerson Tung and his A6M-S Koumuri Jethead art . This isn’t
the first time we’ve been impressed by Sandro’s work, in fact, he was named The
Brothers Brick Builder of the Year in 2022. Nor is this the first time he has
been inspired by Emerson’s work. Check out our Sandro Quattrini archives to see
what I mean. This may be the most interesting thing I’ve seen all day and I’ve
Googled potatoes and jelly.

STRAP IN FOR A LONG, TORTUROUS RIDE

This new LEGO creation by Rubblemaker is called Symbiosis. If you recall your
grade school science classes, symbiosis is where two organisms share a mutually
beneficial relationship. I’m not entirely sure if this is mutually beneficial;
that poor clod in the cockpit may or may not be this ship’s pilot but it is most
definitely its fuel source. If this ship moves as fast as Voyager II, it would
take this suffering fool 9.5 years to get to Uranus. Plus you couldn’t even land
there because science journals, as well as my grade school self, will tell us
that Uranus is a gaseous, smelly giant. It’s likely you’d have to keep going for
another few decades to reach a land-able rock and even then it’s no guarantee
the locals will be friendly. Space travel sucks!

NOT YOUR AVERAGE STAR WARS SCENE...

And now, for a LEGO Star Wars build that’s entirely different from the average
from Thomas Jenkins.
Before Star Wars was released to the world in May 1977, a small team of set
designers and model makers were tasked with interpreting and realizing George
Lucas and Ralph McQuarrie’s designs.
Thomas captures that moment here, perfectly.



This little scene has been dressed perfectly with nods to the original trilogy,
from vehicles being built and fine detail being added to working from the
concept artwork behind them. It is lifted straight from those behind-the-scenes
shots of Phil Tippett, Denis Muren, and company from what would become ILM
busily crafting the galaxy we’ve come to love. What drew me in, was the
intricate little builds scattered throughout; from the Angle-poise to the little
tool drawer, such a refreshing Star Wars build. And check out the litter in that
bin – a nice touch!
