That’s not the only in-depth chat this month, as the LEGO House creatives reveal how they upgraded Story Lab to bring in scenes inspired by Castle, Space and Pirates.

This is an essential issue for LEGO locomotive enthusiasts, as Blocks counts down the finest engines to have rolled out of the station, then the LEGO Trains Story explains how Harry Potter and AFOLs kept the train dream alive for a new generation.

There are plenty of pirate builds to admire in a feature on Brethren of the Brick Seas, a community role-playing game that sees AFOLs building amazing ships and islands while weaving them into a sprawling narrative. If you prefer builds with instructions, you can follow along and build a mini Venator, a DREAMZzz unicorn or a minifigure-scale snowmobile.

Within the 116-page magazine you’ll also find out what went on at Skærbæk Fan Weekend, read reaction to LEGO Animal Crossing sets, get the full story behind ‘What it is is beautiful’ and much more.
