Just as The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part is about to premiere in cinemas all over the globe, LEGO Movie Days take place at the LEGO House in Billund, Denmark for the entire month of February with fun film-inspired activities. This is the very first time that the LEGO House is collaborating with the LEGO Group’s product and marketing development team, and they created two unique backstage exhibitions related to the movie; one in the public area in LEGO Square and one in the Green Zone inside the Experience Zones. Below are more details on both, as well as some exclusive footage with the designers. 🙂
The exhibition in LEGO Square gives an insight to how the LEGO Group and Warner Bros. collaborated to co-create the much-anticipated film. The exhibition showcases a range of developmental work on characters, vehicles and settings as well as original props that are featured in the actual movie.
The exhibition within Green Zone gives a behind-the-scenes-peek of The LEGO Movie 2, and shows how LEGO models are continually refined during the creative process. A selection of these iterations will be on display.
In the player below, I have included three very interesting interviews with Senior Designer Jordan David Scott and Design Manager Ross Christopher Haynes. They will give you a behind-the-scenes look at the early development stages of some of the characters, vehicles and scenes from The LEGO Movie 2.
Another very interesting video is the designer interview with the LEGO designers who worked on the set; Senior Designer Justin Ramsden, Graphic Designer Patton, and Element Designer Ruth Kelly. They go into great detail about working on different aspects of the set, show some of the early prototypes, and even talk about their own journeys on becoming LEGO designers. I think you will enjoy it.
Also, to celebrate The LEGO Movie 2, there are a couple of advertisement collaborations which are pretty fun. The first one is an ad for the 2019 Chevy Silverado, and the second is for the new Discover Card. I have included both in the player below.
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part is scheduled for release this weekend, and seeing all this extra footage is pretty exciting! Also, if you haven’t done so already, you might want to take a look at all the new sets at The LEGO Movie 2 section of the Online LEGO Shop.
What do you think? Are you looking forward to The LEGO Movie 2? And what do you think of the behind-the-scenes look at some of the prototypes? Feel free to share your thoughts and discuss in the comment section below! 😉

That armored Classic Space truck looks awesome! I hope it’s going to be a set. The advertisements were funny. Especially for the Chevy. But the behind the scenes and designer videos were the best. It must be so fun to work at Lego!
I would love to visit Billund one day, see the factory, the Lego House, Legoland, all of that. But it’s so expensive to get there.
We would love to do that too! The whole family is talking about it. But sadly, it is not going to happen unless we win the lottery. But it looks like such a great place!
Yeah, would love to see the place myself! It’s like Mecca for LEGO fans! 😀
Did you guys notice the different versions of the bus? I like the second one in the middle! The interviews with the designers were very interesting.
Yeah, I liked the bus prototypes too! They did end up going with the craziest version! 😀
Wow!😮 now I really want these sets . I think the first set ( actually second set, I got two bennys space squad) should be the ultrakatty & warrior Lucy. That set looks so cool.
Ultrakatty is one of my favorite sets! It’s so cool! And spiky! I think you’re going to love it. I like some of the other sets too, but not as much as in the first movie. All those transforming vehicles were awesome. Maybe the second wave will have more cool sets.
Ultrakatty reminds me of the Chima creatures. Those were cool too. But of course, Ultrakatty is even better with all the new parts and building techniques. 🙂
I miss the legends of chima I wish Lego kept it going and not give up on it like they did. However , there is a rumor that Chima is some how going to connect with ninjago in one of the seasons . I guess because chima is another realm or dimension. So, I’m not sure about that, but, curious . 🤔
Hm… haven’t heard that, but it’s not impossible.
…. what would really be great , if Emmet and Lucy ( and friends) wind up in ninjago. I seriously doubt that ninjago and chima will be together . It’s just a rumor. ( those crazy fans.lol!)🙃
TLM and Ninjago feels as a more probable team-up. Weren’t there some implications that TLM and TLNM took place in the same universe?
