Last Week’s Bricks: Week 42, 2026

The Italy model was also described as the final set in the four-model promotional restaurant series. That makes it a useful point to check whether a collection is complete, rather than assuming the offer will be available in every market.

The supplied reports qualify the offer with stock availability, so availability after the reporting week is unknown.

For anyone following the programme, the important distinction is timing: this was a report about the closing pre-order window, not a comparison of the models or a measure of wider community interest.

A later report on final sales was also published during the week, but the supplied assessment does not provide the figures. They are therefore not repeated here.

The brief offers a deliberately broad starting point: a vehicle, character or scene can carry the crossover idea. That leaves room to choose whether the connection comes through a silhouette, a setting or a small narrative moment.

The supplied evidence dates the announcement to 10 October, just before this reporting window; Brickset published its report on 11 October.

According to organiser Nannan, as quoted by Brickset, visitors can purchase custom LEGO creations during the fundraiser, while builders of all skill levels can submit MOCs for listing.

The organiser said contributors receive shipping instructions when a creation sells, and that shipping and parts costs are reimbursable. Check the event’s own information for the current selection and any details not covered here.

The feature is a useful historical prompt for builders interested in SNOT—studs not on top—because it places the technique’s principle before one of its familiar LEGO-system parts.

Rather than treating a technique as a fixed recipe, the article points back to the underlying problem: how to turn connection points sideways when the available elements are different.

For builders browsing a set for its parts rather than its finished model, the useful angle is the documented focus on unique patterns, rare colours and new MOCs inspired by printed elements.

The supplied evidence does not provide inventories or individual part identifiers, so it cannot establish which elements are currently available separately.

The shared MOD is a useful example of treating motorisation as part of the scene design: the builder aimed to conceal the power components as much as possible, while the stop received extra attention.

The builder reported that the tram could not negotiate S-curves. It could take points only with a straight track section on either side, so a compatible layout is part of the modification’s practical limit.

It is a modification of two sets, not evidence that a single 60506 set includes motorisation. The supplied record does not establish instructions or parts-list availability.
