This update adds labels for 78 new parts to the LEGO Brick Labels collection!
What’s new in this update?
At least twice a year, LEGO Brick Labels is updated to include the most popular new parts. You can support the LEGO Brick Labels project by making a contribution!
This is a very large update which reflects the continued evolution of the LEGO Brick Labels collection. It adds 77 new labels, for a total of 1340 unique parts!
Every update include some of the most popular new parts, parts which have continued to grow in popularity over time, and some of the parts requested by Brick Architect readers like you. Thanks for your support!
After 7 years, LEGO is finally releasing an updated MINDSTORMS set which uses the new “Powered Up” standard. I’ve celebrated by releasing a beta version of LEGO Brick Labels for these next-generation electronics.
#51515 LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor was announced today, replacing the 7-year old #31313 LEGO Mindstorms EV3 set for consumers. (The new set uses many of the same components as the recently released #45678 LEGO Education SPIKE Prime Set.)
#51515 LEGO MINDSTORMS Robot Inventor — $359.99 (359.99€ / £329.99), 949 pieces, ages 10+. (Available early in Q4 2020)
I’m most excited because this means that almost all LEGO Electronics components have finally moved away from proprietary connectors, in favor of the new Powered Up interface. To celebrate this milestone, I’ve released a “beta” version of new labels for all of the current Powered Up components.
Download and learn more on a new page that explains the Powered Up system.
This update adds 66 new labels, for a total of 1263 parts!
I’ve added popular new pieces, more minifig accessories, and some common LEGO Train pieces.
This update also adds some older parts which have continued to grow in popularity over time, and some of the parts requested by Brick Architect readers like you. Thanks for your support!
LEGO Brick Labels is one of the most popular resources provided here at Brick Architect, but I hadn’t updated the page where you can download and learn more in 4 years!
The updated page includes an up-to-date list of compatible label printers. It’s also shorter, easier to read, and encourages readers to visit my LEGO Storage Guide to learn more about storage solutions.
Richard at The Rambling Brick just posted an interview about my LEGO Brick Labels collection.
In the interview, I explain how each label is made, the criteria for inclusion in the label collection, and challenges in designing great labels. You’ll also learn a bit about my favorite parts and colors, as well as my day job and some of my non-LEGO Hobbies.
This update adds 74 new labels, for a total of 1197 labels!
I’ve also included popular new elements from late 2019 and a few extremely useful parts which were just introduced in 2020.
This update also adds some older parts which have continued to grow in popularity over time, and some of the parts requested by Brick Architect readers like you. Thanks for your support!
The new version includes 48 new labels, for a total of 1069 labels!
Version 3.1 focuses on two things: New parts released since last fall, and “common” parts which were missing from the collection. (This included a lot of propeller parts which are quite common, but were not included in the collection until now.)
The new version includes 66 new labels, for a total of 1021 labels!
In addition to new labels, version 3.0 has more consistent file and folder names, a more consistent scale for images of basic parts, and a separate folder containing just those labels new for this version.
