LEGO Ideas Yellow Submarine!

Well, this is cool, innit? As a longtime Beatles fan, I'm quite excited. LEGO Ideas has announced the release of set 21306, Yellow Submarine! It's an over-550-piece model of the Yellow Sub itself, including four minifigures of the Beatles!

For more info, check out the official press release!

I've also attached a video below!

An update: Looking towards the future

This is the first post in nearly a year, and continues in the long line of those posted a long time after the previous. I'd like to use this post to address you, the readers, and tell you exactly how I see the future of this blog as it stands.

As many of you know, BIONICLE has been canceled for the second time, an action I foresaw LEGO taking. The only extant CCBS sets are the Star Wars: Rogue One Ultrabuilds, which are a far cry from the level of inspiration we saw in 2011 with the release of Ordeal of Fire.

As two college students, we at StoneHart LEGO have had little time to create or post new MOCs, and the second generation of BIONICLE provided little inspiration. In our spare time, we have created some new characters, but otherwise nothing new has emerged from our imaginations.

As mentioned before, we at StoneHart are college students with busy schedules which lend little to no time to devote to LEGO creations, let alone to post on this blog. This explains why you've seen no activity for nearly a year. With this in mind, I expect the activity level you've seen in recent years (yes, years) to remain largely the same: little to no posting.

That aside, I expect that we will eventually create some more characters and storylines that we've been willing to post. Whenever that happens, you'll be seeing it here at StoneHart LEGO.
