Next year’s mystery LEGO Art set is now rumoured to be a depiction of Katsushika Hokusa’s seminal The Great Wave off Kanagawa, potentially as a three-dimensional build not unlike 21333 Vincent van Gogh – The Starry Night. That’s good news for art fiends, but bad news for one LEGO Ideas project… LEGO set That coincides with the conclusion of Netflix’s The Electric State filming (which will feature Millie Bobby Brown), that’s due to wrap up in mid-April 2023. What could 2023 have in store for Super Mario fans? Well, there’s the brand new animated movie to potentially act as source material (and, hopefully bring us our first LEGO Super Mario minifigures). And then there’s the summer wave to consider: will we see another new digital figure, and if so, who will it be? Our money’s on Wario, but for now, here’s all we know about Nintendo’s only LEGO theme in 2023… LEGO set Also in the creative team are co-director Justin Martin, set design by Miriam Buether, costume design by Brigitte Reiffenstuel, lighting design by Jon Clark, sound design by Paul Arditti, illusions design by Jamie Harrison & Chris Fisher, video design by 59 Productions, movement direction by Coral Messam, wigs, hair and make-up design by Campbell Young Associates, casting by Charlotte Sutton CDG, international casting consultancy by Jim Carnahan, and Gary Beestone for Gary Beestone Associates is Technical Director. We’re still waiting on more information on next year’s LEGO Collectible Minifigures series – including precisely which characters they’ll cover – but even the prospect of a third Disney batch has us excited. Not quite as excited as a kid at Disneyland, but pretty close. LEGO set

The first wave of LEGO Avatar sets coming in 2023 is based entirely on the upcoming Avatar: The Way of Water, but continues the theme’s unique mix of colourful Pandora builds and harsh military models. As with the initial batch of sets, they’re also heavily display-focused, to better target their core demographic of older fans. LEGO set The popular American science-fiction and drama-horror TV series has turned viewer’s heads upside-down with its old-fashioned retro vibes and thrilling plot.

As of the time of writing, the writers are currently hard at work on the fifth season, which will have a slightly reduced episode count compared to season 4 reduced from 9 to 8. As of December 2022, we’ve seen the planning grid for Stranger Things season 5 and the first episode script draft, “Chapter One: The Crawl,” written by The Duffer Brothers. Stranger Things: The First Shadow is produced by Sonia Friedman Productions, Stephen Daldry and Netflix, with 21 Laps as associate producers. It’s all quiet on the Indy front at the moment, but we can’t be too far away from finding out more about the rumoured list of sets for next year. If they’re launching in the first half of 2023, the LEGO Group could start shouting about them pretty soon… LEGO set

Also, don’t forget that The Duffer Brothers have two other major projects in the works for Netflix in the form of Death Note and The Talisman.No end dates were provided, but prior seasons (excluding season 4) have taken roughly 5-6 months in production. Production Weekly Issue 1326, released on December 1st, now confirms that Netflix is currently eying to film season 5 from “Mid-May 2023”. LEGO Disney’s 2023 sets are currently thought to include more Disney Princesses, more Pixar’s Cars and more mystery models. Fingers crossed we get some more insight into those TBC products soon… LEGO set I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.
