LEGO has just released its first product catalog for 2023 and it comes with plenty of new sets that we can expect in March. Other than the first wave of 2023 LEGO City Stuntz sets that we saw earlier, this time around, we are seeing 6 new LEGO Creator 3-in-1 2023 sets scheduled for release in March.
These offerings are quite diverse with plenty of animal builds, vehicles, and a house that transforms into a single or a three-story building. They are not yet listed at LEGO.com as of this posting, but I will update this post once we have official images and product descriptions.
We’re just counting the days before the first wave of LEGO 2023 sets is out. And in case you haven’t finalized your LEGO 2023 wishlist, then you may want to hear what the LEGO fan community has to say. Because thanks to Brickset’s one of many interesting features, you can somehow gauge the sentiment of other equally excited LEGO fan builders and get to see what are the most wanted LEGO sets of 2023 according to Brickset members.
If you wish to know what sets to prioritize this January, then read on and take a look at the top 15 most wanted LEGO sets for 2023. Bear in mind that this is the most accurate data as of this posting, and there will be slight changes as we wrap up this year. However, I believe that these changes may not be that significant to change the ranking of these sets.
Check out these most popular LEGO 2023 sets starting at 1st place and in descending order of likes or being the most wanted.
Frankly speaking, this is a cool mix of sets that shows how diverse the interests of our LEGO fan community are. Love them or hate them (I know most of us find it difficult to appreciate that Morbius film, but hey, we still get to see our first minifigure of our vampire superhero probably because of that), these sets are quite attractive not just because of the themes that they represent but also the new parts and elements that they introduce. This is particularly true, especially in the case of LEGO City sets 60384 and 60394 where we get to see a new minifigure costume and otter element. Additionally, in the case of licensed LEGO themes such as Star Wars, LSW fans are certainly hyped for the much-awaited 501st Clone Trooper minifigures (75345) and a new and aptly sized TIE Bomber (75347).
And since a large chunk of LEGO’s market is geared towards the AFOL community, it is somewhat expected to see the first modular set of 2023 make it at the top of this list. The LEGO Icons Jazz Club (10312) is the king of the hill for the majority of Brickset members even if it means shelling out $230 for this 2,800-piece set.
In the final analysis, consider this list as a guide to knowing what is hot and not for 2023 among LEGO fans. But in the end, you decide on which among these most wanted LEGO sets will it to your final “add-to-cart” list. So what do you think? Are there other LEGO 2023 sets that you want to see in this top 15 list? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
It’s back to the outdoors with this wave of LEGO Creator 3-in-1 2023 sets currently listed at LEGO.com. In case you missed it, this pair of buildable animals allows you to have 3 play sets in 1, with brick-built animal scenes that also come to life digitally via the LEGO Builder app.
This collection of LEGO Creator 3-in-1 2023 sets is scheduled to be available in all LEGO stores and online starting January 1, 2023. I’m particularly keen about the details on the brick-built rabbit – they’re spot-on and just plain adorable. Check out their product descriptions and official images below.
Kids aged 8 and up can play out fun stories with this fantastic LEGO® Creator 3in1 White Rabbit (31133) playset. It features a brick-built toy bunny with a posable head, legs, mouth, and ears, and it comes with a choice of 2 snacks: a carrot or a flower.
Kids aged 8 and up can play out exciting stories with this brilliantly detailed LEGO® Creator 3in1 Birdhouse (31143) building set. It features a birdhouse with an opening roof at the top of a stand and includes 5 colorful and posable toy birds to sit on its perches.
Speaking of LEGO GWPs, here’s another one coming up next for big buyers this October 2022. The more recent gifts currently available come from a variety of LEGO themes. Our next expected GWP for mid-October is no different. Speaking of variety, this one will provide plenty all its own, considering it’s a LEGO Creator 3-in-1. And the timing can be no more appropriate too when we consider the subject of this set. With Halloween coming at month’s end LEGO is offering us this. It even has an age recommendation right for the occasion’s primary demographic.
Courtesy of The Brick Fan, we have this scoop on the LEGO Creator 3-in-1 Mystic Witch (40562). As expected, this upcoming GWP set lets builders create an iconic Halloween witch. We’re talking conical hat, broomstick, green skin, the works. You’ll even be forgiven if you can’t decide whether her mouth piece is a smile or a big protruding tooth. And being a 3-in-1 set, Mystic Witch can be rebuilt into two other alternate forms. She can become her own familiar black (well, purple) cat or a cute little dragon. Just like a stereotypical witch to be able to magically shapeshift. It doesn’t get more Halloween-y.

LEGO collectors can have the GWP Creator Mystic Witch (40562) for a minimum total purchase of $100. The corresponding gift period begins this coming Friday, October 14, and will run all the way to Halloween itself. It just doesn’t get more spooky seasonal than this.
Hey there Brick Fans! Its great to be back here at TBS. Its been a rather long hiatus from my end, but hey I hope everyone’s doing well after all the craziness of this pandemic. Its also great to see that our love for the brick is still as strong as ever, and with the latest wave of LEGO Creator and City sets slated to be released very soon, there’s more reason to be excited. But while waiting for these latest LEGO releases, let’s dive in and see what Amazon LEGO deals are out there to keep us building through out the weekend.
I’ve compiled some of the most recently available Amazon LEGO deals that you can take advantage of today. So if you’re looking to add a few LEGO sets to your collection, or just want to pick up some badly needed bricks and accessories, then be sure to check out these deals! In no particular order, these sets are now available over at Amazon for up to 25% discount.
Just a quick note. By clicking on these affiliate links and making a purchase, TBS will earn a commission that helps support the site, and keep it running.
Better hurry if you want to have these sets added to your cart, since we don’t exactly know until when these Amazon LEGO deals will exactly last. Of course, you can still get them over at LEGO.com but if you want to save on your LEGO purchases and then you need to take advantage of these discounts.
Hey, it’s the first day of the month once again. March 1, 2022. By this point the New Year must no longer feel so new. Before we go off track however, we’ll get right down to what this update is about: first-day LEGO product launches. We certainly enjoyed covering these sets when they first officially came out. And like before, for your easy reference we’re collecting their LEGO.com product listings together here. Our big thanks again to The Brick Fan for any March 1-releasing LEGO product we may have missed. Also linked are our past articles, if we caught them.
Judging from the buzz we’ve been getting online over the weekend, LEGO is gearing for another mass release in March. A number of reveals covering several prominent LEGO themes are getting collectors excited for what’s coming. Some of these sets have been teased far back in the year that came before. These following items in particular surfaced in September 2021, when we covered them here on The Brick Show. Several set numbers for LEGO Creator were rattled off back then. Brickset managed to spot some of them off German retailer JB Spielwaren. If you like Creator 3-in-1 then you’re sure to love these upcoming launches.

If you’d recall the September 2021 report we did on these 2022 Creator sets, you’ll realize this list is incomplete. Four more sets remain unlisted. They might not even come out on March 1. You know what that means: more waiting. In fact, we must also wait for until LEGO officially lists these Creator 3-in-1 items in the online shop. We’ll probably see that as February 2022 arrives this week.
Early this month, we covered the reveal of the first LEGO polybags noted to be coming next year. Already we at The Brick Show felt that this batch of 2022 polys would only be the tip of the iceberg. Indeed they were, even if that was barely a surprise. Small and simple as they are, multiple unique LEGO polybags can be churned out in a year. Promobricks.de gives us word of these new reveals, courtesy of brickdex.io, a new price comparison platform. We’ve got multiple polybags under major LEGO themes unlike last time. There’s still no word however on which polybags will sell in-store and which are promo items only.
Every year the Toy Association honors the best products in the industry through its annual Toy of the Year Awards. It doesn’t take a follower of these events to know that LEGO is a regular nominee and awardee here. Being one of the biggest toy brands in modern history is a perk in itself. Furthermore, many of the sets they release year after year deserve nominations and wins. The 2022 Toy of the Year Awards is no exception. Of the 16 possible categories, LEGO has representation in at least eight. Some of these categories even have multiple LEGO nominees.
It’s amazing that one set from LEGO’s misfiring Vidiiyo theme also made it in. Then again, that would be the Toy Association’s call. Maybe the accolade (and a possible award) may reinvigorate interest in the Vidiyo line. Who can tell? Anyway, we wish LEGO’s 2022 Toy of the Year Award nominees the best of luck.
Last week, we reported on a subtle addition to the functionality of the LEGO Shop@Home webpage interface. A color selection option was implemented on two of its products: the LEGO Creator sets Expert Fiat 500 (10271) and 3-in-1 Mighty Dinosaurs (31058). This hinted that these two sets, and perhaps many others, could have set variants produced.
At the time of that report, the color options for the above-mentioned LEGO Creator sets were only their originals. Nearly a week later, LEGO itself has made an official announcement of this feature. Along with that comes the reveal of the first alternative colors.
The LEGO Group finally shed light on the variant color option for selected sets on its home shopping portal, describing it as a limited-time pilot project. Here’s their official statement:
The LEGO Group is running a pilot with a small number of products to gain a deeper understanding of what our fans want from our portfolio and where they prefer to shop for new or unique products.
The pilot includes variations of some of our existing products, so we can find out more about the colors and sizes of sets that fans of all ages want to see more of in our portfolio.
It certainly sounds like good news, and if you’re wondering about the catch then here it is. Most of these set color variants will be available only in the UK and Ireland. This is via their regional LEGO Shop@Home, physical stores, and third-party retailers. The variations on selected LEGO sets will only be available in these areas until November 30, or while supplies last. The LEGO Creator Expert Fiat 500 recolor is the sole exception. LEGO Shop@Home UK can ship this one internationally.
So far, LEGO has marked four sets for variants. The first two are, as already stated, the aforementioned LEGO Creator sets. LEGO Creator Expert Fiat 500 (10271) has an additional blue color scheme renumbered as set 77942 in addition to its original yellow.
Here’s hoping the pilot test for this thing in the UK takes off. Maybe then LEGO will make these set variants available internationally, and with more to follow.
