Revisiting LEGO 76391: Hogwarts Icons â Collectorâs Edition
In this episode, weâre heading back to 2021 â the year LEGO marked 20 magical years of Harry Potter sets with one of the most ambitious tributes theyâve ever released: Set 76391 â Hogwarts Icons: Collectorâs Edition.
With over 3,000 pieces and a launch price of $249.99, this set was designed for serious fans and display shelf dominance. From Harryâs wand and glasses to potion bottles, textbooks, and a giant Hedwig that easily steals the show, itâs packed with iconic elements that even casual fans will recognize â or at least admire for their sheer scale and creativity.
But now that some time has passed, how does it hold up? In this episode, Iâll share my thoughts on the build experience, the display value, and whether this set still feels magical a few years later.
Weâll also talk about the subtle touches that make this set feel premium (hello, minimal sticker use) and whether the collectorâs edition label really fits.
And hereâs the kicker â itâs still available on shelves four years later, which might tell you something about how LEGO sees this one. Is it a future classic? Tune in and find out.

Whatâs it really like to live with someone whose love for LEGO borders on obsession? In this episode, I sit down with the most important minifig in my life â my wife â for a candid, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt conversation about being the spouse of a hardcore LEGO collector.
We get into the nitty-gritty: how the hobby has taken over our home (yes, there are bricks everywhere), the surprising upsides of living with a builder, and the very real sacrifices sheâs made to accommodate thousands of tiny plastic parts. Has she ever faked excitement over a set? Has anything ever mysteriously disappeared from the collection? How do we keep the hobby fun without it taking over our relationship? And what advice does she have for anyone who's dating or married to someone whose true love might just be⊠modular buildings?
We also dive into how we manage spending, storage chaos, and the unexpected ways LEGO has actually brought us closer together. Whether you're a builder, a partner, or just someone trying to make peace with the bricks underfoot, this episode is packed with laughs, honesty, and maybe even a little relationship wisdom â LEGO-style.
So, grab your favorite minifig, settle in, and get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at love, LEGO, and what happens when your hobby becomes a third member of the relationship.

So⊠did you survive May the 4th? Or are you currently buried under a pile of instruction manuals and empty shipping boxes? In todayâs episode of BrickCast, weâre doing a full post-May-the-4th check-in â 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?).
Weâve also got some spicy LEGO updates and corrections â because apparently math is hard when youâre 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 didnât know you needed, this monthâs GWP game is strong.
Beyond that, weâre taking a peek at the brand-new wave of Technic sets â and oh boy, if you like cars, construction vehicles, or just want to spend your rent money creatively, youâll want to hear this lineup. Weâve 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 â and no, itâs 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.

Ah, the elusive âWhite Whale.â No, not the giant sea creature from classic literatureâthough chasing one of these LEGO sets might feel just as epic. Weâre talking about those legendary, long-lost, sometimes-possibly-mythical LEGO sets that haunt our dreams, drain our bank accounts, and laugh at us from behind eBay paywalls. Welcome to todayâs episode of BrickCast, where we dive headfirst into the wild world of LEGO white whales.
Whether youâve been collecting LEGO for a few months or have bricks older than your kids, everyone has that one set. You know the one. The set you spotted once in a random blog post ten years ago, the one your friend found at a garage sale for $3 while you stood by in horror, the one that vanished from store shelves just before you were finally ready to buy it. And now itâs out of stock, ridiculously rare, and costs more than your first car.
Today, weâre taking a brick-built deep dive into these sacred grails of the LEGO world. Why are these sets so ridiculously desirable? What makes a set go from âneatâ to âlegendaryâ? Is it the theme? The minifigs? The nostalgia? The fact that it only released in a small test market in 1997 for exactly five minutes? Weâll break down the stories behind some of the most sought-after and unobtainable LEGO sets out thereâfrom iconic heavy-hitters like Cafe Corner, Cloud City, and Mr. Gold, to lesser-known gems hiding in obscure corners of LEGO history.
And letâs be honestâweâre not just here to admire from afar. Weâre also here to feel a little pain together. Because nothing brings LEGO fans closer than bonding over the heartbreak of seeing your dream set listed online for $2,000⊠with cracked bricks, yellowed stickers, and no minifigs.
But donât worry, this episode isnât all heartbreak and budgetary despair. Iâll also be sharing tips for how to track down those elusive white whales, how to build reasonable brick-by-brick substitutes, and how to survive the emotional rollercoaster that is LEGO collecting in the modern age.
So come along for this nostalgic, slightly ridiculous, and thoroughly fun ride through the legends of LEGO collecting. Whether your white whale is a UCS Millennium Falcon, a first-edition Hogwarts Castle, or just that one polybag from a gas station promo in 2006, this oneâs for you.
And heyâif this episode stirs up any memories of your own white whale, let me know! Iâd love to hear what set keeps you up at night (figuratively, of course⊠unless itâs literally, in which case, letâs talk).
Thanks for listening, subscribing, and being part of the Imagination Brickshop family. New episodes every Monday and Wednesdayâbecause your LEGO obsession deserves twice-a-week validation.

In this episode of BrickCast, Iâm diving headfirst into hyperspace because folksâitâs Star Wars overload in the best way possible. Weâre talking May the 4th, the sacred holiday of the LEGO galaxy, and this yearâs wave of sets is coming in hot. From fresh BrickHeadz to helmets, starships, and a certain bounty hunter you mightâve heard of, this episode is your full rundown of whatâs about to drop, how much itâll cost you, and which ones deserve prime real estate on your display shelf.
But hold onto your lightsabers, because thatâs just the beginning. Weâve also got a surprise addition to the galactic lineup: the debut of a brand-new buildable droid from Rogue Oneâthe incredibly lovable, endlessly sarcastic K-2S0 (yep, the one who could roast you in six languages). And let me tell you, this thing is stunning. Sharp details, slick design, and that perfect "donât mess with me" energy. So why, you ask, is this amazing new droid not being released as part of the May the 4th celebration? Why is it being launched in stealth mode? Thatâs the mystery Iâll be uncovering in this episodeâalong with how, when, and where you can get your hands on whatâs sure to be an instant fan favorite.
But if Star Wars isnât your thing (first off, are you okay?), donât worryâIâve got you covered, too. Weâre shifting gears halfway through the episode and heading into calmer territory with the lush and lovely world of LEGO Botanicals. Thatâs right, new sets are blooming this summer, and whether you have a green thumb or just like the idea of plants that never die, youâll want to hear what LEGO has in store. Trust me, these new additions might just be more cheerful than that happy little desk plant you keep forgetting to water.
And of course, weâre saving a juicy one for the very end. Iâve got a fresh new rumor thatâs got castle fans buzzingâand itâs got everything: knights, horses, towering stone walls, and possibly, just maybe, the return of a fan-favorite LEGO theme weâve all been secretly hoping would come back. Is LEGO about to give us the medieval magic weâve been waiting for, or is this just another hopeful whisper in the wind? Iâll break it all down and let you decide.
So, whether you're here for the droids, the flowers, or the dreams of brick-built battlements, this episode is packed tighter than a Death Star trash compactor. Buckle up, tune in, and let's build something epic.
As always, thank you for listening and supporting the showâand donât forget to subscribe so you never miss a Monday or Wednesday drop.

Today, weâre putting on our fancy black turtlenecks, sipping espresso from tiny cups, and stepping into the sleek, minimalist world of LEGO Architecture. Thatâs rightâthis episode is a full-blown celebration of one of LEGOâs most refined, most adult-oriented, and most shelf-worthy themes. Whether youâre a longtime collector or someone who just appreciates a good skyline, this oneâs for you.
Weâre going to explore it allâfrom the origins of the theme back in 2008, when LEGO decided to stop pretending these sets were for kids and just leaned into our inner architects, to some fascinating trivia, fun design facts, and a few eyebrow-raising moments in Architecture set history. Did you know the first LEGO Architecture set was designed by a real architect? Or that some sets in this theme have appreciated in value faster than you can say "Fallingwater"? No? Well, now you do. And thereâs plenty more where that came from.
But the main event today? Oh, itâs a big one. Iâm ranking the top 10 LEGO Architecture sets of all time. Thatâs rightâweâre diving into the full catalog of 62 sets released over 17 years and picking out the absolute best of the best. These are the builds that arenât just cool to look at, theyâre full-on love letters to design, engineering, and all-around LEGO ingenuity. From iconic skylines to legendary landmarks, these are the sets that nailed the balance between fun and finesse, between bricks and beauty.
And letâs be clearâthis is my totally subjective, probably controversial list. So, if your favorite didnât make the cut, donât come at me with a ruler and a scaled model of the Empire State Building. Or doâbecause I love a good LEGO debate. Weâll go set by set, breaking down what makes them great, where they fall in the rankings, and what sets them apart in a theme known for sharp lines and smarter-than-average builds.
But weâre not stopping at the bestâoh no. Because letâs face it, not every Architecture set is a masterpiece. Some⊠well, letâs just say some are more âmehâ than âmagnificent.â So, Iâll also be calling out a few of the worst offenders. You know the onesâthe sets that feel less like iconic buildings and more like someone gave up halfway through the instructions.
So, am I spot-on with these picks, or completely off the grid? Thatâs for you to decide. But either way, by the end of this episode, youâll walk away with a deeper appreciation for the LEGO Architecture theme, a few new favorites to track down, and maybe even a burning desire to build your own brick-built cityscape.
Thanks for listening, and as alwaysâwhether youâre Team Skyline or Team Landmark, keep building!

Welcome back to another episode of BrickCast, where today weâre diving deep into a brand-new subtheme in the LEGO Marvel universe that has fans raising eyebrows, scratching heads, and double-checking their bank accounts. Thatâs right, we're talking about the all-new Marvel Busts series. Leading the charge are the Iron Man MK4 and the Iron Spiderâand letâs just say, theyâve got people asking some big questions. Are these bold new builds worthy additions to your Marvel collection? Or are they just overpriced imposters trying to sneak in with the iconic LEGO helmet line?
Iâm putting these builds under the microscopeâexamining the design, the detail, the displayability, and yes, that eye-watering price tag. Because if LEGO thinks they can slap a few pieces on a stand and call it art, weâre going to have a few words. But what if⊠just maybe⊠this is the beginning of something huge? Iâll share my thoughts on where this bust concept could be heading. Could we see a line of Marvel villains next? Maybe some DC crossover potential? Iâm breaking down all the possibilities and where LEGO might (or might not) take this new collectible direction.
But thatâs just the tip of the brick-built iceberg.
Weâve also got big news from a galaxy far, far away, because May the 4th is coming in hotâand with it, an army of Star Wars sets that may leave your wallet trembling in fear. Iâve got the scoop on everything: updated piece counts, adjusted prices, and some spicy takes to help you figure out which sets are worth your Republic credits. Whether you're eyeing the buildable Chopper, debating a few new BrickHeadz for your desk display, or considering taking out a second mortgage for Jango Fettâs not-quite-Slave-I starship, Iâm here to help you make the right call.
Still not enough LEGO goodness for you? Donât worryâIâm just getting warmed up. In this episode, we also take a magical detour through the wizarding world for the latest on the new Harry Potter booknook (youâre going to want this on your bookshelf, trust me). Plus, Iâve got exclusive info on Vietnam factory exclusives that are making serious waves, and updated info about a massive new Batman set that might just steal the spotlight this year.
Thereâs a ton to unpack, from Marvel to Middle-earth, from Gotham City to Brickheadz, and all the collectible corners in between. So, grab your favorite snack, clear off a little shelf space, and tune in for a packed episode filled with hot takes, fresh leaks, and enough LEGO news to build a Death Star.
Thanks for hanging out with meâletâs get building.

But don't panicâbecause even if you're stuck in second gear, BrickCast is there for you (cause youâre there for me too), and ready to hit you with another cozy set review to help you power through!
And this week? Oh yeah, weâre heading straight to the heart of 90s sitcom glory with a full-on deep dive into the legendary LEGO Ideas Central Perk set. Thatâs rightâweâre grabbing coffee, dodging Janiceâs laugh, and reviewing every last brick of this nostalgia-packed tribute to Friends.
And now they know that we knowâŠWe're going back to a time when the biggest life decision was whether to move the couch or scream pivot! When laugh tracks ruled the airwaves, fashion meant layered shirts and Rachelâs haircut was on everyoneâs wish list. Central Perk is more than just a TV setâitâs a cultural institution, and today weâre breaking down how LEGO managed to bottle that lightning in brick form.
From the carefully printed menu boards and ridiculously cute minifigures (yes, even Ross looks great in LEGO form), to the tiny mugs, pizza boxes, and of course, the iconic orange couchâthis set is packed with Easter eggs and clever nods to the showâs best moments. Did LEGO sneak in Rossâs keyboard? You bet they did. Is Gunther lurking around with a silent crush on Rachel? Youâll have to listen to find out.
Iâll walk you through all the details: the build experience, color palette, standout design choices, and where this set fits among the other LEGO Ideas legends. Whether you're a lifelong Friends fan or just here for a solid LEGO build, there's something in this set for everyone.
And of course, Iâll wrap it all up with my final thoughts and a full ratingâshould you hunt this retired gem down for your shelf, or let it remain a brick-built memory from the past? Either way, weâre going to have a lot of fun breaking it all down. Thanks for listening!

Today, we're diving headfirst into a question that's been rattling around my brain like a loose 1x1 stud in a vacuum cleaner: Is LEGO really for kids anymore?
Once upon a time (cue nostalgic flashback music), LEGO bricks were purely the realm of young dreamers. Little hands building wobbly houses, rocket ships, and whatever that blob was supposed to be. It was simple. It was joyful. It was the ultimate toy for curious minds and sticky fingers. But fast forward to today, and things look... a bit different.
Higher standards. Higher prices. Marketing campaigns straight-up targeting adults. Yeah, I'm looking at you, LEGO Icons and UCS Star Wars sets. And Iâm pretty sure my wallet just filed a restraining order against me after I went all-in on the latest modular building.
So, what happened? When did this shift from âkidâs toyâ to âpremium adult collectibleâ actually start? How did LEGO evolve from building basic houses to crafting architectural masterpieces that look better than my actual living room? And why is it that I suddenly need a part-time job just to afford the new wave of sets?
Iâm about to break it all down for youâthe rise of the Adult Fan of LEGO (AFOL), how the LEGO Group saw us coming a mile away, and why this might just be the golden age for grown-up builders. Spoiler alert: itâs not just your imaginationâLEGO really has grown up with us. Whether thatâs a good or bad thing probably depends on how much shelf space you have left.
And while Iâm at it, Iâm taking a look at how LEGOâs strategy might be shifting even further into adult territory. Are they leaving kids behind? Or are they just making room for us big kids who never really grew out of our brick obsession? Either way, Iâm here to unpack it all, piece by tiny piece.
So, get comfy, grab your favorite minifig, and settle inâthis episode is gonna be one wild ride through the past, present, and future of the worldâs largest toy company. The answers might surprise youâor just make you feel totally validated as an AFOL. Either way, I promise plenty of laughs and some deep thoughts on why weâre all still so obsessed with these little plastic bricks.
Thanks for tuning in, and as alwaysâkeep building and stay awesome!

Youâve still got time to save up those pennies because pre-orders donât open until next year! So, start that piggy bank nowâyour future self will thank you.
And speaking of future awesomeness, mark your calendars for May 15th! Iâm about to break down a set that might just be the holy grail of LEGO speedstersâthe brand-new LEGO Mario Kart! Whether itâs the sleek, smooth lines that would make even the fanciest Italian supercar blush, the ridiculously charming character, or the surprisingly decent price tag, this set is nothing short of pure, unadulterated perfection.
But waitâhold your Krusty Burgers because weâve got some super juicy rumors on the horizon! Yep, LEGO is cooking up something wild with a new Simpsons Krusty Burger set, hitting shelves on June 1st! The rumor millâs churning, and word on the street is thereâs a new minifig thatâs got Bart Simpson absolutely shaking. What could it be? A radioactive Krusty? Zombie Homer? Or, maybe someone far - far more sinister...
And finally, because your shelf space isnât complete without a little epic fantasy flair, brace yourselves for some Lord of the Rings magic! Yes, you heard it rightâBook Nooks are coming to LEGO! If youâre anything like me, youâll be clearing a prime spot on the shelf for these amazing miniature worlds tucked between your favorite novels. Iâm talking hobbit holes, epic journeys, and tiny Gandalf just chilling next to your hardcovers. Itâs the ultimate blend of nerdiness and class.
So, buckle up and stick around until the end of the episode for all the details, laughs, and possibly a little bit of fanboying on my part. Donât forget to share the brick love with your friends!
Thanks for listening, and as alwaysâkeep building and stay awesome!Music Credit: YouTube Music Library
