LEGO Ideas Jazz Quartet Press-Release

Today, the LEGO Group has revealed the latest fan-designed set, the #21334 LEGO Ideas Jazz Quartet – a striking depiction of a musical ensemble in brick form, designed to be co-built by up to four friends. Designed by Taiwan-based, LEGO fan, Hsinwei Chi through the LEGO Ideas platform – which offers fans the opportunity to submit their own brick creations with the chance to have their concept brought to life with the help of LEGO master designers and a share of the profits.

Let the smooth harmony and diversity of jazz music take on a new form with this latest set, which consists of a group of four musicians on a stage, with a grand piano, trumpet, double bass, and jazz drum, representing a quartet as they perform. Place the finished piece on a bookshelf and admire it whilst you relax with some melodies playing in the background.

LEGO Ideas fan designer Hsinwei Chi says, “There is nothing quite like the warmth of jazz music, so when I designed this set I wanted the LEGO bricks to truly capture the musical vitality of a live band. Much like LEGO building, free-spirited jazz can be medicine for your mind – so I hope when the Jazz Quartet set is built and displayed, people will feel a connection to the music.”

The set features four diverse musicians (male and female of multiple skin tones), a stage, a grand piano, trumpet, double bass, and a jazz drum set. It can be built by up to four people or solo – whichever the user decides! The set comes with 1,606 pieces and each model measures: 7.5” / 20cm high, 17″ / 43cm wide, and 6” / 16cm deep.

The new #21334 LEGO Ideas Jazz Quartet set is going to be available starting from the 1st of July. Prices are as follows: £89.99 / € 99.99 / $ 99.99 /169.99 AUD/ 129.99 CAD. For more information visit the LEGO Ideas section of the Online LEGO Shop.

LEGO recently released the first twelve episodes of Season 15 of the LEGO Ninjago TV show titled Crystalized. You can watch the episodes here: Watch LEGO Ninjago Crystalized Episodes 1-12!

There is another interesting series of Ninjago shorts that we haven’t talked about yet, titled The Virtues of Spinjitzu, also known as Six Virtues. It was released between Season 14 and Season 15, though it actually takes place between The Island mini-series and Season 14. The shorts were created to promote the subtheme called Ninjago: Core, devoted to introducing young children to Ninjago with sets that stand on their own without show content.

Each of the shorts focuses on each of the ninja and revisit past Ninjago settings. The episode titled Curiosity focuses on Nya, but does not revisit any past location, as it is set in the Monastery of Spinjitzu. The episode titled Balance focuses on Cole and revisits the Pyro Vipers’ pyramid from Season 11. The episode titled Wisdom focuses on Lloyd and revisits Prime Empire’s Speedway Racetrack from Season 12. The episode titled Honesty focuses on Jay and revisits the Castle of Ice in the Never-Realm from Season 11. The episode titled Generosity focuses on Zane and revisits the Dungeons of Shintaro from Season 13. And the episode titled Courage focuses on Kai and revisits the Island of the Keepers from The Island.

Though the ninja are highly skilled, they are also young and can be undisciplined. As Master Wu tries to get them to appreciate the six virtues which are fundamental to Spinjitzu, something unexpected happens: he gets captured by a dragon! The ninja give chase to begin a thrilling adventure in which they return to familiar realms to face old enemies and learn important lessons about themselves. Watch the video to find out if the ninja can successfully rescue their beloved mentor.

It’s fun to remember scenes from some of the earlier episodes, isn’t it? And if you would like to check out the currently available LEGO Ninjago sets, you can also visit the LEGO Ninjago section of the Online LEGO Shop.
