The prizes? It's a secret - it's not Xmas yet so you can't peek

For those of you who haven't picked up LEGO's Winter Toy Shop yet, Christmas is only 30 days away.

Let's just hope LEGO re-stocks this set soon for some of us "late shoppers".

One can not help but think that the little toy shop is inspiring many builders to create snow villages for the holidays.

Trains & Town fan Brickzone has done so by building this grand Winter Village for all to enjoy.

With a Norman Church, Weaver's Cottage, Town Hall, and a number of other wintery buildings,

Brickzone is certainly ready for the holidays.

One week left, and over 50 entries so far... time to start building - or wrapping up!

Dear BIONICLE Fans,

In reviewing the business across all of its play patterns and properties, the LEGO Group faced a tough question: should we take on a new creative challenge in the world of buildable figures that we pioneered in 2001?

BIONICLE re-invented the way consumers think of and play with the LEGO system. Through many chapters of compelling story and innovative product development, BIONICLE became a very strong property and an important part of The LEGO Group’s business. We think there is a significant opportunity to grow the buildable figure category, but it will take a more flexible platform that appeals to a wider range of ages through a variety of different entry points than BIONICLE has proven to deliver.

The easy decision would be to stick with a known entity in BIONICLE; but as history has proven, The LEGO Group achieves its greatest success by embracing the uncertainty that innovation brings. After all, BIONICLE almost never launched because it was such a big risk to the company’s way of doing business.

Because you have been such an important part of building the BIONICLE franchise and have been among its most valued fans, we are writing to tell you that the six BIONICLE Stars launching in January will be the last BIONICLE sets for the foreseeable future. Beginning in summer 2010, The LEGO Group will debut a new, more flexible buildable figure property created by the same people who brought you BIONICLE. At the same time, we are also expanding the category to appeal to a younger audience through an established third-party property, starting in January.

Since its beginning, BIONICLE has reflected the union of great product and a compelling story. Although there presently are no plans for more sets, the BIONICLE story is not ending. BIONICLEstory.com will remain an active site, with new story content updated by long-time BIONICLE writer Greg Farshtey. In addition, LEGO Group hopes to work with you, the fans, to continue to grow and expand the BIONICLE story universe.

This was an extremely difficult decision for all involved. But as seen in the tales of the Toa, striving for success in any mission requires imagination, new ways of thinking, and the willingness to take risks. We hope you will share the same level of enthusiasm we have for our plans for the buildable figure category.

We invite you to remain a part of the BIONICLE universe—a universe you have helped to build, and that we are confident that you will continue to build—in the future. Thank you for your continued support and dedication to the BIONICLE and LEGO brands.

With our very best regards,

Jan Faltum, Global BIONICLE Director

Lincoln Armstrong, Senior Brand Manager, BIONICLE Team Member since 2002

It's great to have outstanding train builders part of our Eurobricks Train Tech community.

One such builder, Cagri, bricks us another excellent train wagon, a white Side Dumper.

Wouldn't it be great to see LEGO offer a few single train cars like this one?

With the news of Bionicle ending in 2010, EB Member and long-time Bionicle fan -Tilius- is organizing an appeal for a final Bionicle set depicting the Great Spirit Mata Nui to celebrate the ten years that this successful theme has lasted for.

For those of you who don't follow the story much, this is the character we'd like a set for:

Even if you're not a Bionicle fan, surely you would want one of those!

Click here to show your support by joining the discussion and voting on aspects such as how much you would pay for such a set and how much SYSTEM should be used for it. With a joint effort of the community, maybe this dream can become a reality!

Eurobricks' drivers better watch their speed in the Trains & Town forum.

EB member Sigmeister has created a realistic looking California Highway Patrol Vehicle based on a Dodge Ram design.

This eight stud-wide vehicle is packed with interior details for emergency response as well as accident investigation.

Just make sure you drive safe during the holiday season.
