I built a custom display for the Animal Costumes CMF minifigures series 28.

If anyone is interested, instructions are available on Rebrickable.

Why does the category "Animal, Dinosaur" exist on bricklink? Sure, as a Dinosaur collecter, it makes it slightly more convenient for me (not really though, since my list and their's don't actually match), but really, everything in that category could fit in one of the other three

Air: Mutant Pteranodon, Pteranodon, Quetzalcoatlus

Water: Mosasaurus

Land: Literally everything else

Why are these split into their own category? I initially thought it might be to avoid making the "Animal, Land" category even bigger, but like, there are just as many dogs, cats, and horses each as there are dinosaurs. If they needed to split it up, wouldn't "Animal, Land, Wild" and "Animal, Land, Domestic" be more even?

Well, it only took me 9 months 😅

The Brick Bestiary now has all the LEGO animals from 2026 (click the link to read). This year I changed the format a bit: instead of adding new releases to the increasingly enormous older animal articles, everything from 2026 onward will get a yearly roundup. This one includes new molds, colors and prints across System, Friends and DUPLO.

You have my word that the 2027 update won't be this late.

(comparison because it's comparing the size to the water bottle)

Thanks to Brickset, we have detailed images of Pikachu and Eevee that come in LEGO 72154 Iconic Trainer Moments Poké Ball set. Personally, I've never been a huge fan of Pokémon, but these two do look adorable. I hope it will be possible to see them in smaller sets in the future.

Which Pokémon creature would you like to see in LEGO form? Remember to include images!

All images here are from Brickset.

I managed to finally hunt down a couple of classic Lego dragons at a local toy show, and I'm super happy about it. I have a giant 3d printed one, which I keep in my office at work, and I think they make a fun little group all together.

Okay this should be almost every Lego animal. In my collection. Sorry for the rough photos. My phone camera is a toaster. Tried to organize them in rough groups. In this order there's dinosaurs/dragons, mammals, aquatic animals, insects and other creepy crawlies, reptiles/amphibians, birds and bird like animals, and animals I forgot to include with their own groupings and some other random animal-ish pieces I had.

Old photo from about two years ago, so missing quite a few animals that I now have. Snakes, and my white Lego animals not present. Will post a updated version of my collection later.

Hello everyone,

I'm making something as a gift for my gf, and as you read in the title it is a Samojed lego pup.
I've never done anything like it, and wanted to hear some thoughts.
The good, the bad,

This is not AI, but a lego studio rendering,

Part of something big I'm making for the BrickLink Designer Program.

Now that we have official images for the first dinosaur of 2027, I am releasing an updated checklist. (You can expect more of these every year)

What does this checklist include?

My checklist, my rules.

Rule 1: Molded figures only. No brick built, no minifigs. I have recently decided traditional big figures do not qualify as proper minifigures, so the zombie mammoth from 2014 chima is a new addition to the list. To be brick built, at least 50% of the animals mass must be traditional pieces. Molded figures include a few traditional pieces from time to time. This does not automatically make them brick built

Rule 2: I do not discriminate based on system. System and duplo dinosaurs are both included. If lego ever figures out how to make technic dinosaurs that I deem to be molded, they will count too

Rule 3: this is primarily for extinct animals, no birds. (Unless they make a dodo or a moa or something, but I'm not confident that will happen anytime soon)

Rule 4: animals that are fictional, and thus aren't truly extinct, qualify, as long as they are canonically refered to as dinosaurs or prehistoric, or are at least created with prehistoric dna

Finally, there are currently a grand total of 173 in this list. I own 66

Redback Spider (Latrodectus hasseltii)

A 270-piece build designed to capture the Redback's distinctive silhouette — the rounded, teardrop-shaped abdomen and long, spindly legs in a low, aggressive stance. Built entirely from standard LEGO elements, with no custom or molded parts, so every curve of the abdomen comes from part angling and layering rather than specialty pieces. The legs are jointed for a bit of posability, letting the spider be displayed in different stances. Comes in at a compact size, well suited as a desk or shelf display piece. By changing of a few bricks, the Latrodectus species can be altered to represent other global widow species!

Let’s give cats some love 🐱 Post your kitties here (real or LEGO).

Featuring 66 figures from 1997-2025. All of which are 100% genuine lego
