There’s something magical about lighthouses. The romance of the sea, the solitude of the tower, and the reliable flash of the beacon guiding sailors home. LEGO’s 21335 Motorized Lighthouse brings all of that to life with stunning accuracy and beautiful design. Released under the LEGO Ideas line, this set is a testament to fan creativity and LEGO engineering, and right now, it’s available at a huge discount for LEGO Insiders: €224.99 instead of the €299.99 RRP.

This morning’s kitchen table session was led by Luke and Rose, who wasted no time diving into the colourful bags of parts. At 215 pieces, 60343 is the perfect size for a morning build, not too long to lose focus, but detailed enough to feel rewarding. The instructions are clear and friendly, and as always, LEGO City sets have a charm that engages younger builders right from the first brick.

The moment the box arrives, you know you’re dealing with something special. LEGO Icons 10307: The Eiffel Tower is not just another big set—it’s one of LEGO’s most ambitious architectural feats.

When LEGO announced they were following up Rivendell with Barad-dûr, fans were ecstatic, I was ecstatic, and rightly so. This isn’t just another big black tower. It’s a sprawling, richly detailed love letter to Sauron’s dark domain and a masterclass in vertical LEGO design.
