What happens when one of the most iconic airplanes ever built teams up with a legendary space shuttle? You get one seriously epic LEGO display piece, and today we’re taking a deep dive into it.

In this video, I’m building and reviewing the LEGO Icons Shuttle Carrier Aircraft (10360), a 2,417 piece tribute to aerospace history featuring the Boeing 747 and the NASA Space Shuttle Enterprise. This is the aircraft combo that helped define an entire era in human space exploration, and LEGO packed in a ton of thoughtful details to celebrate it.

We’ll take a close look at • The sleek fuselage and deployable 18 wheel landing gear on the 747 • The Space Shuttle Enterprise with its detachable engines, landing gear, and tail cone that can all be stored in the cargo bay • The display stand and information plaques that turn this build into a true centerpiece • The overall build experience, techniques, and how this set feels from start to finish

Whether you’re a space nerd, an aviation fan, or just love a big, bold LEGO Icons display, this set has a lot to talk about and I’ve got thoughts.

Make sure you watch until the very end, because I give this set my final rating and break down who I think this set is really for. Is it an instant classic, or more of a niche build?

A new week means another deep dive into the constantly shifting world of LEGO news and rumors, and this episode is loaded with updates that could have a big impact on what ends up on shelves later this year. Between a quirky new February gift with purchase, new theme confirmations, and several releases that may not be what we originally expected, there is plenty to unpack.

We also take a closer look at upcoming display-focused sets, some major movement in the LEGO Ideas space (well kinda space), and a few rumor updates that could completely change the conversation around certain fan-favorite properties. Add in fast cars, prehistoric chaos, and a couple of mystery listings that raise more questions than answers, and this episode keeps the speculation rolling the entire time.

If you like being in the loop before official announcements drop, breaking down rumors as they evolve, and hearing honest reactions along the way, this is one you won’t want to skip. Some of these details might be small on their own, but together they paint a very interesting picture of what LEGO has planned next.

In this episode, I take a step back and look at one of LEGO’s most powerful marketing tools: the Gift With Purchase.

Over the past five years, GWPs have quietly evolved from small bonuses into full-blown drivers of buying behavior. They’re no longer just a “nice extra” tossed into your cart. In many cases, they’re the reason people place an order at all. From recent GWP rushes that caused instant sellouts to comments like “I’m buying this day one for the GWP,” it’s clear these promos now shape how, when, and where fans spend their money.

We dig into how GWPs developed over time, starting with early promotional packs and polybags, and how they eventually became seasonal, highly targeted, and sometimes region-exclusive incentives. I break down some of the most memorable and valuable GWPs ever released, including my personal favorites, and talk about why certain promos explode in value while others fade almost immediately.

The episode also tackles the bigger question: is this actually good for the hobby? Are GWPs enhancing the collecting experience, or are they pushing fans into spending money they wouldn’t otherwise spend just to avoid missing out? I compare buying directly from LEGO versus retailers like Target, and how GWPs factor into that decision more than ever.

Finally, we get into the investing side of things. Are GWPs worth buying, holding, or flipping? Can they still be a smart play in today’s market, or has the strategy changed? The answer, as always, is more complicated than it seems.

Whether you collect them, chase them, ignore them, or invest in them, GWPs have become LEGO’s secret weapon. The question is whether it’s helping the community… or quietly reshaping it.
