Feeling nostalgic for LEGO Club Magazine? Blocks, the monthly magazine for LEGO fans, can make you feel like a kid again — but with content tailored for adult LEGO fans.
Nothing quite compares to the rush of coming home from school to find a new issue of LEGO Club magazine waiting with the post, but Blocks can help recreate that brick-built magic with its monthly 116 pages of high-quality, LEGO-themed content written by fans, for fans.
Blocks might not have the comics, games and mazes that made LEGO Club the go-to for childhood magazine entertainment, but what it does have is premium content designed to help you go deeper into the LEGO hobby in a way that no other platform does. With a subscription, you can build up a library of material that you can delve into whenever you like and be one of the world’s biggest brick experts (a 12 month subscription is the most popular option).
In the same way that LEGO Club was themed around all the latest and greatest themes and sets, the monthly LEGO magazines cover the newest releases. Features written by an expert team (including The Secret Life of LEGO Bricks author Daniel Konstanski and LEGO Star Wars: The Force of Creativity author Graham E. Hancock) contain interviews with the creatives behind new sets, themes, minifigures, tech and more, proving insights into the full design journey, all the way from conceptualisation to the placing of the very last brick.
And Blocks also goes beyond what’s new on shelves. Each month, Blocks features writers cover happenings from all over the world of LEGO bricks, sharing heartwarming stories of nonprofits serving their communities through LEGO play and highlighting the incredible work of fan builders making their own mindboggling creations.
In the spirit of LEGO Club, Blocks provides opportunities for you to get hands-on with your own LEGO collection, too. Quick Builds, custom-made by the Blocks team, showcase ways you can put your LEGO bricks to use, offering step-by-step instructions, just like a LEGO set. A variety of builds from month to month — and even within the same issue — ensures your build skills are kept sharp and your collection is always looking fresh.
If all the LEGO Club memories are making you extra nostalgic, the Retro section in each issue of the LEGO magazine is sure to scratch that itch. Every month highlights a new year in the LEGO Group’s history, providing a look into the best and most memorable sets from ages gone by. There are also showcases for minifigures, video games, themes and long-forgotten pieces from the past. Plus a retro-themed Quick Build for you to add a splash of nostalgia to your LEGO display.
All this and more can be had in your mailbox each and every month — that’s twice as frequent as LEGO Club was — with a monthly subscription to Blocks. With options ranging from 3- to 24-month subscriptions, subscribing to Blocks makes sure that you get every issue right to your door, before it comes out in the shops. Plus, you’ll be entered into monthly giveaways and get a discount on each issue (compared to buying them individually).
Aging out of LEGO Club might still be many a LEGO fan’s biggest regret, but recapturing the magic of getting a magazine packed with LEGO-themed content just for you is more than possible with a subscription to Blocks.
