It turns out that Pepper Roni’s third adventure could have been set in the world of the classic 1990s/2000s LEGO Adventures theme. Find out all about how this game would have channelled Zelda for something truly unique in the LEGO gaming portfolio.

This month continues an in-depth exploration of how the LEGO minifigure was developed ahead of its release in 1978. The Secret Life of LEGO Bricks author Daniel Konstanski examines the earliest known prototypes and reveals how they defined the key proportions and attributes that came to be essential parts of the minifigure.
Many LEGO fans aspire to become professionals who work in Billund, Denmark, designing sets – and Senior Model Designer Antica Bracanov is living that dream. In an extensive interview, she describes her journey from discovering the brick in adulthood to working at the company. She provides fascinating insights into some of the incredible sets she has worked on, including 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr, 10325 Alpine Lodge and 21330 Home Alone.
In another of Issue 123’s exclusive interviews, Senior Model Designer Henrik Saaby and Graphic Designer Kenza Faten Statoua provide a tour of their peaceful new model – 10359 Fountain Garden. They explain how they thought about this particular model to land on something warm and inviting.

In Reviews, the team assess models including 21353 The Botanical Garden, 42638 Castle Bed and Breakfast and 21061 Notre-Dame de Paris, plus sets from Star Wars, Speed Champions and DREAMZzz.
