LEGO LEGEND OF ZELDA GREAT DEKU TREE: The #77092 LEGO Legend of Zelda Great Deku Tree is another big set released this month with two different display options for the tree, as seen in either Ocarina of Time or Breath of the Wild, plus Link’s house and more. Each version also has poseable facial features and accessible panels on the sides. The set also includes curated items from the games, such as the Ocarina of Time, the Hylian Shield, the Master Sword, and other detailed elements. There’s also a collectible adventure hero minifigure of Princess Zelda and three minifigure versions of Link. The price is $299.99 and the set is available at the LEGO Legend of Zelda section of the Online LEGO Shop.

LEGO THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS: The #21351 LEGO Disney Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas is the third larger set released this month. We talked about this set in detail a couple of days ago, but to recap, the set features connectible models of three iconic Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas locations – Spiral Hill, Jack Skellington’s house, and the Halloween Town Hall. They come with authentic details, such as the walking bathtub, a chalkboard in Jack’s house with his formula for Christmas, and a lectern at the Town Hall where Jack gave his speech about Christmas. Also included are minifig versions of Jack Skellington, Sally, Santa Clause, Lock, Shock, and Barrel, plus Zero the dog, and a brick-built The Mayor figure with two faces. This set is $199.99 and is available at the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

Just Do It – The LEGO Group and NIKE Partnership

by on August 31, 2024
in Community News

A few days ago, The LEGO Group and NIKE, Inc. announced a multi-year partnership that will celebrate creative play and sport, offering new and exciting opportunities for children and families worldwide. Details below.

The LEGO Group and NIKE, Inc. have long histories of championing kids’ right to play. Both brands know that creative and physical play are essential to children’s development, and help kids reach their full potential as they develop essential life skills through play that allow them to thrive as they grow up.

A recent LEGO Group study (1) revealed that for a third of children globally, playtime is limited to just three hours a week and according to the World Health Organization (2), only 1 in 5 kids gets the physical activity they need to thrive. Today’s announcement reflects the LEGO Group and NIKE, Inc.’s shared commitment to put creativity, fun, sport, and imagination back into play, and inspire, engage, and empower kids around the world.

The partnership activity kicks off next year and could see a series of co-branded products, content, and experiences that combine the imaginative power of LEGO bricks with the “Just Do It” spirit of NIKE, Inc. to invite kids into play and sport.

Alero Akuya, VP of Brand Development at the LEGO Group: “At the LEGO Group, we believe in the power of play to inspire and develop the builders of tomorrow. By combining the creativity of LEGO play with the energy and passion of sport we want to inspire new ways for kids to play and be creative. We are excited to partner with NIKE, Inc. on this journey and help reimagine how creative play and sport can unite. Together, we will create unique experiences that will engage and excite kids around the world, inspiring them to explore their imaginations.”

Cal Dowers, VP, Global Kids, NIKE, Inc. said: “At Nike, we believe in the power of sport to move the world forward, and that starts with kids. We’re committed to creating a more accessible and inclusive future that inspires kids of all ages and abilities to be more active. Together, with the LEGO Group, we’re excited to invite all kids into a new vision of sport and creative play.”

THE IMPORTANCE OF PLAY FOR KIDS

For over 90 years, the LEGO Group has inspired generations of children through play and the endless creative possibilities of the LEGO brick. The company knows that play is important for the development and well-being of children and helps them develop skills such as creativity, confidence, and resilience.

In a recent survey (3) of 25,500 children and 36,000 parents in 36 countries commissioned by the LEGO Group, almost all children said that play is important for their well-being and 73% stated that they don’t believe grown-ups take play – and how it can help them learn – seriously. 59% of parents also indicated they worry that their children do not have enough playtime or access to fun activities.

NIKE, Inc. is powering the future of youth sports and changing the game to improve sports access and experience for everyone in partnership with community organizations, athletes, experts, and employees. The company focuses on providing quality coaching, leading with girls, and addressing societal barriers that keep too many people on the sidelines.

In March 2024, the United Nations adopted a resolution designating June 11 as the International Day of Play. The effort was backed by global partners including the LEGO Group and NIKE, Inc. International Day of Play is an opportunity for NIKE, Inc. and the LEGO Group to inspire kids to engage in creative play and sport and will form an important milestone each year for this new partnership.

To mark today’s announcement, a special digital animation was created to spark the excitement and curiosity of kids, families, and adults everywhere. It brings to life how sport and creative play will come together, and leverages iconic elements from both brands, including the iconic orange Nike shoebox, the waffle outsole and Nike Air technologies, and the LEGO brick, minifigure, goat, and stud. At the center is a specially created LEGO minifigure head with Nike’s Swoosh as the smile.
