The best and worst of LEGO in 2025

The best and worst of LEGO in 2025

From gifts-with-purchase and a bumper year for Ideas to (also) gifts-with-purchase and $1,000 sets, join us for a recap of the best and worst of LEGO in 2025.

2026 is right around the corner, so it’s time to look back on 2025 in LEGO and – in particular – the best and worst of the past 12 months in bricks. We’ve been skewering everything from the best sets and minifigures to the biggest news stories here on the website, and now Matthew has put together a breezy 15-minute recap of the highs and lows of 2025 over on YouTube.

Find out why he’s divided on the current state of gifts-with-purchase, which theme has done no wrong for him in 2025 and why the price of sets like 10354 The Lord of the Rings: The Shire could be a problem for the LEGO Group longer term by checking out the video below or heading over to our YouTube channel.

Head here for more (written) deep dives into 2025 in LEGO, and don’t forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel if you haven’t already: we’ve got a couple more cool videos coming in over the festive period that you won’t want to miss.
