Ep. 85 - Your Bricklink Designer Series 8 Finalists

The Imagination Brickshop’s LEGO Brickcast

The official announcement for the Bricklink Designer Program Series 8 finalists is just around the corner—and before the internet explodes with opinions, hot takes, and broken “Buy Now” buttons, I figured it was time to throw my own brick-built hat into the ring.

In this episode, I’m diving into all 384 submissions and doing the impossible: narrowing them down to my Top 5 personal favorites. This is a totally subjective, moderately obsessive, and fully biased list of the sets I think deserve to be in the spotlight. From tiny, clever builds bursting with color and charm to 4000-piece monster models that practically shout “Display me immediately,” these are the designs that stopped me mid-scroll and made me say, “Yep, I need that.”

If you’re a fan of the Bricklink Designer Program—or if you just love unique LEGO creations that push the limits of what’s possible—this is absolutely a video you won’t want to miss. I’ll break down what makes each of my picks special, why they stand out from the crowd, and whether they’ve got what it takes to become the next big fan-funded set.

And of course, a huge congratulations in advance to all the designers out there. Narrowing this down was beyond tough, and I genuinely wish I could have picked them all. The creativity on display this round has been nothing short of incredible.

So if you’re wondering what sets to keep your eye on, or just want to see which builds made me gasp out loud in front of my computer, grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the countdown.
