Paramount+ 'The Lodge' at SDCC

While walking the streets of the Gaslamp District in San Diego,  the district that hosts San Diego Comic-Con, I heard someone ask about “Paramount+ The Lodge,” “Is that about the series? Wasn’t it cancelled?” The Paramount+ The Lodge has nothing to do with the similarly named TV series or the 2019 horror flick. It isn’t even an activation limited to San Diego Comic-Con. If you’re wondering: What…

LEGO Masters at Comic-Con

LEGO Masters returned to San Diego Comic-Con International (SDCC) in 2024, and I was there! "LEGO Masters: Back Behind the Brick" was Friday, July 26 at 4:30 PM (PT) in Room 6BCF. This was the second year in a row LEGO Masters had a program at SDCC.

*THE HIGHLIGHTS*

Season 5 confirmed!

Most likely this fall!

Also a new Holiday Bricktacular!

Will has a mustache now!

Read on for more details (but no pictures, sorry; call me old-fashioned, but I prefer to experience things in the moment, rather than photograph them... plus the photography rules at SDCC can be pretty strict!).

PANEL BASICS

First off, the 2024 program was in a much larger room than the inaugural 2023 program. Like, soooooo much larger. I was very proud of my fellow LEGO fans for showing up and proving to SDCC that we wanted more (and more, and more) LEGO content in the future.

The 2023 panel was headlined by Brickmaster Amy. In 2024 we got Brickmaster Jamie, because... drumroll... Amy had a baby!!! Big cheers from the crowd. You'll be pleased to hear that both Brickmaster Amy and Jamie are just as delightful in person as they are on the show. They are genuinely friendly, open, and pleasant human beings. Sometimes you get celebrities who are clearly there due to contractual obligations and have no interest in the SDCC experience whatsoever, which is a bummer when attendees have been waiting in line for hours and hours to get in the room (not to mention, looking forward to the experience for several months). Amy and Jamie clearly love and appreciate the LEGO community and want to support us!

The 2024 panel was moderated by Krystle Starr, who participated in Season 1 of LEGO Masters US and went on to win LEGO Masters: Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular as well as LEGO Masters AU: Australia vs. The World. The other panelists were two producers from the show, plus Christopher from the Season 4-winning duo of "Christopher and Robert," aka The Villains.

BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS

LEGO Masters Season 5 confirmed (for this fall?): We got to see a teaser trailer, which confirmed the season and also teased some of the challenges (yes, there's plenty of smashing and exploding). The trailer also revealed Will has a mustache now. It's... something. What the trailer did not reveal was date of the season debut, only that it was part of the 2024-2025 season; however, one of the challenges gave a big hint as to the debut date...

Wicked challenge: OK, so this might only be a big announcement for me, but I was absolutely thrilled to see that one of the challenges is going to be Wicked themed. I love musicals. I love Wicked. I absolutely adored the Wicked Brickified trailer. I can't wait to see part one of the movie on November 22. Speaking of which, although they didn't announce a release date for Season 5, it's pretty safe to assume it will be premiering during the Fall 2024 season. Along with the movie on November 22, LEGO has also not-quite announced the official Wicked sets are dropping October 1. It would make sense for Season 5 to happen during the Fall 2024 season so the challenge coincides with these two events. That's my best detective work right there.

LEGO Masters: Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular also confirmed: they showed a trailer and announced the participants. Sophia Bush, Eric McCormack, Holly Robinson Peete, and Lil Rel Howery will pair up with former LEGO Masters contestants Christine Blandino (Season 3), Stephen Joo (Season 3), Aaron Newman (Season 1), and Corey D. Samuels (Season 1).

Robert and Christopher's set reveal: as part of their Season 4 winner prize package, Robert and Christopher got to see their championship build turned into an actual LEGO set. Christopher showed a couple of early prototypes from the development process, and then showed us the final set, which was also on display at the LEGO booth (and is available for pre-order, shipping August 1). In an adorable full-circle moment, it was revealed that Boone, part of the second place team from Season 1 and now an official LEGO employee, was one of the designers for this set. Goals!

FUN FACTS

LEGO Masters is now in production in 18 countries.

There's approximately 10 million bricks in the LEGO Masters Brick Pit.

Christopher (unofficially) has the largest private LEGO set collection in the world. I say "unofficially" because he is currently in the process of submitting the evidence to Guinness World Records, which requires him to take and submit a picture of every single set... and considering he has OVER 9,000, it is taking him a hot second to finish his application (the current record holder has 6,005 sets).

Christopher wants to turn his enormous collection into a LEGO history museum.

Evil Will wasn't in Season 4 because Villain Christopher defeated him and locked him in his LEGO room [this was Christopher's answer when a small child asked where Evil Will went during Q&A].

Thanks for reading! Hit the bricks :)
