Ep. 74 - Too Many New Sets to Count! - 5/3/25 - News & Rumors

So… did you survive May the 4th? Or are you currently buried under a pile of instruction manuals and empty shipping boxes? In today’s episode of BrickCast, we’re doing a full post-May-the-4th check-in — what sets were worth it, what deals are ending right now, and what surprise builds are still sneaking in through the back door (Kamino Training Facility, anyone?). We’ve also got some spicy LEGO updates and corrections — because apparently math is hard when you’re blinded by new set reveals. And speaking of reveals, the LEGO gods are not slowing down. From Mario Kart insider freebies to baby astronauts you didn’t know you needed, this month’s GWP game is strong. Beyond that, we’re taking a peek at the brand-new wave of Technic sets — and oh boy, if you like cars, construction vehicles, or just want to spend your rent money creatively, you’ll want to hear this lineup. We’ve also got Harry Potter magic on the horizon, including a new Book Nook that may finally give your shelf the upgrade it deserves (no magic wand required). And if you thought LEGO Star Wars was done for the year… think again. A certain droid is making a comeback in a big way — and no, it’s not R2. All that, plus Minecraft, postcards from Italy, and maybe one too many Fast & Furious references. So grab your butterbeer or your Technic wrench and join me for a wild ride through the latest LEGO news, rumors, and ridiculous opinions. New episodes every Monday and Wednesday — thanks for listening to BrickCast! Music Credit: YouTube Music Library
