The LEGO Icons space sets which include reimagined LEGO sets from the past such as the Space Shuttle Discovery and NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander, offer an exciting journey into the history of space exploration for advanced builders as well as past themes which include the Blacktron Cruiser. These sets reimagine older, less detailed LEGO space models with a focus on higher detail and accuracy. The Space Shuttle Discovery set showcases a highly detailed model of the iconic spacecraft, complete with a deployable Hubble Space Telescope while the NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander set meticulously recreates the historic lunar module. Designed for advanced builders, these sets provide a challenging and rewarding experience, reflecting LEGO Icons' commitment to producing highly detailed and sophisticated models.
2021 LEGO Sets
In 2021, LEGO continued its expansion and innovation, introducing new digital-physical hybrid experiences while reinforcing its commitment to sustainability. One of the most notable additions was LEGO VIDIYO, a collaboration with Universal Music Group, designed to let users create digital music videos using augmented reality (AR) and LEGO BeatBits. The theme blended physical collectible minifigures with app-based interaction, but despite its unique concept, it was short-lived and later discontinued due to low engagement.
