LEGO Back to the Future Time Machine Sells Out Within Minutes AGAIN!

LEGO Back to the Future Time Machine set

The highly anticipated set depicting the iconic Delorean from the Back to the Future franchise was released on the 1st April to much excitement. LEGO have produced a Delorean set before back in 2013, which is now much sought after by collectors, but this iteration is significantly bigger and better. LEGO has released a number of highly detailed cars under the Creator Expert theme that depict real-world counterparts, and this is the most accurate of them all. The film and car also have a cult-like status that is not going to change anytime soon. Set 10300 was therefore on many people's wishlist.

The Great Wave of Kanagawa storms its way to 10,000 Supporters

LEGO Ideas The Great Wave of Kanagawa

Yet another project has garnered 10,000 supporters on LEGO Ideas, and now has a chance of being turned into an official set. The Great Wave of Kanagawa depicts the famous artwork of the same name by Japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai. The painting was created using a woodblock print that shows a large wave about to crash over three boats of fishermen, with the iconic Mount Fuji in the background. It's one of the best-known pieces of Asian art and is widely recognised around the world.

The Wave was designed by the prolific LEGOverwatch who has several other projects at the “gathering support” stage. From a technical perspective this project is very impressive as it's a real challenge to recreate something as fluid as water in brick form. Some clever building techniques and ingenuity would have been required to achieve the end result. We especially like the use of the white connecting parts to depict the breaking water.
