LEGO Masters

Eight pairs of LEGO lovers step into an arena and race to transform simple bricks into ambitious builds. The goal isn't just to impress with size, but to demonstrate originality, precision, and flair under tight deadlines. Players must plan, adapt, and collaborate as they turn prompts into realized creations, constantly testing ideas against the clock and the judges' evolving standards. The show spotlights the joy of building, the tension of competition, and the surprising ways color, texture, and storytelling can elevate a sculpture. It's a celebration of imagination that starts with a single brick and grows into something remarkable. Behind the scenes, producers pace the episodes to balance thrill with craft, capturing triumphs and breakthroughs that fuel the next challenge.

This Australian edition premiered in 2019 on Nine and adapts the global LEGO Masters format for local audiences. Hamish Blake hosts, Ryan McNaught serves as the resident judge, and pairs tackle a series of themed build challenges across ten episodes.

There's no record of major award nominations for this edition; the show is better known for engaging families and encouraging hands on creativity rather than trophies. Its light hearted style and accessible challenges have broad appeal and lasting warmth over several seasons.

The show helped widen interest in LEGO as a form of family entertainment and creative expression. Fans discuss builds online, and notable creations become talking points, illustrating how competition can spark imaginative thinking and collaborative problem solving. It also sparked conversations about engineering, design thinking, and storytelling through miniature worlds.

Reception highlighted a warm, approachable tone that makes sense to viewers of all ages. The show emphasizes teamwork, iteration, and skill over bragging, inviting audiences to root for the builders together as they refine ideas, adapt designs, and celebrate clever solutions under pressure and learn from mistakes along the way.
