Happy New Year: Welcome to 2025.Episode Notes

Welcome back after the...’ break’. Well, it was a break from podcast recording, anyway. We hope you got some great LEGO®sets for Christmas. Pardon the quality of Richard's voice. It is getting much better!

While we are getting ready to attend Brickvention in Melbourne next weekend, we look at some of the January Releases.

The new LEGO City soapbox derby vehicles and race ramp sets We have been having so much fun playing with them that we have failed to write reviews yet!

We also consider the recently announced LEGO Nintendo Game Boy set, and just what other things 2025 might hold in store for the LEGO/Nintendo collaboration. https://jaysbrickblog.com/news/lego-nintendo-game-boy-set-announced-for-october-2025/
