Review: 60339 Double Loop Stunt Arena
This wildly overpriced set looks cool, but good luck completing a double loop with the cool flywheel motorcycles. Let’s find out about the major flaws in the design of these new loop elements.

A licensed LEGO set that’s compatible with the Modular Building Series? Let’s find out how well this iconic building from the MCU was adapted into a LEGO set.
February might be a short month, but it was packed with great LEGO Articles from around the web.
This 6000-piece set is the largest Lord of the Rings LEGO model ever released, but is it the best? At $500, I certainly hope so!
Let’s revisit one of the less popular recent sets in the series to see how it compares to the four sets that came out after it…
February is Black History Month — Let’s celebrate by learning about two books by talented Black LEGO Creators!
An interesting “baby architecture” set containing four popular landmarks was released today.
I am not happy with the increasing purchase requirements for gift-with-purchase sets, and I’m not a fan of the awkward system that allows LEGO VIP Members to spend VIP Points on exclusive ‘free’ sets either. They aren’t really free anyways since you need to make another purchase. (You will probably want to spend enough to receive free shipping, too – $35 in United States).
Nonetheless, since Brick Architect was created to celebrate LEGO Architecture, I wanted to make sure readers are aware that #40585 World of Wonders is available for a limited time on the VIP Rewards Center. It costs 2700 points, which works out to $20.77 USD for 382 pieces – an equivalent of $0.054 per piece. (A $20 dicount at LEGO.com costs 2600 points.)
As noted in my January 2023 Roundup, I noticed that the set uses stickers instead of printed tiles which is unfortunate. As you can see in the photos below, even The LEGO Group can’t apply stickers without a little bit of dust sticking to the edge.
#21041 The Great Wall of China and #21056 Taj Mahal have already been captured in LEGO Architecture sets — I would not be surprised to see a larger LEGO Architecture set based on Al-Khazneh (Petra) or The Parthenon later this year.
A ton of new LEGO Brick Labels, LEGO moves North America HQ to Boston, Tiny LEGO Architecture models, and some cool new sets coming out in February.
For the second year in a row, I had an opportunity to interview the team responsible for the latest addition to the Modular Building Series.
Find out which parts and colors are the cheapest and most expensive on BrickLink and learn more about the LUGBULK program.
One of our most popular articles explains what LUGBULK is and how to use the opportunity to improve your LEGO parts library (while saving money). I’ve updated the part availability and pricing data in the article for January 2023 — just in time to finalize your own LUGBULK order!
Other improvements:
This update adds 117 new labels to the LEGO Brick Labels collection!
What’s new in this update?
This update uses ‘Ø’ symbol instead of ‘Diameter’ or ‘Dia.’ to make labels for rounded parts more concise.
How did I pick the Most Common DUPLO parts?
While much less popular than my article highlighting the Most Common LEGO Parts, I also created a similar list of the Most Common DUPLO Parts which was updated recently.
