The wait is over! LEGO fans finally have their first look at the official product versions of the BrickLink Designer Program Series 5 finalists, and they’re nothing short of stunning. These fan-designed LEGO sets are gearing up for crowdfunding starting June 10th, 2025, at 8 AM Pacific Time, exclusively through BrickLink—and we’re already clearing space on our shelves.
The LEGO BrickLink Designer Program has become a powerhouse platform for giving passionate builders the opportunity to see their ideas turned into real LEGO sets. With Bricklink Designer Program Series 5, we're seeing a diverse lineup that includes everything from nostalgic nods to entirely fresh, imaginative builds. And now that the official product images and details are available, we can truly appreciate the care LEGO has taken to refine and polish each design for production.
What Makes Bricklink Designer Program Series 5 So Special?
Series 5 has a little something for everyone—whether you're into retro architecture, fantasy landscapes, modular builds, or quirky slices of everyday life. These LEGO sets aren’t just cool to look at—they’re deep builds with thoughtful storytelling and display-worthy design.
Here’s what we know so far:
All 5 sets have been refined from their original fan designs into final, production-ready models.
Crowdfunding opens June 10th, 2025 at 8AM PT, and only the first 30,000 of each set will be produced.
Once they’re gone—they’re gone. No re-releases, no second runs.

Why You Shouldn’t Sleep on These Sets
The BrickLink Designer Program gives fans the rare chance to own limited-edition, high-quality LEGO sets that wouldn't normally make it through traditional retail. Past BDP sets have sold out fast and often become collector favorites.
Plus, if you're a builder who appreciates clever techniques, unusual parts usage, or just something different from the usual LEGO lineup, these sets are some of the most innovative releases we see all year.
