After months of anticipation, tonight is the night. LEGO® Masters premieres on FOX at 9:00 pm ET (click here to read my initial report). For many of you, LEGO® Masters is not a new thing. After all, the show has aired in the UK and Australia. However, this time the show airs in North America for the first time. Granted, it is LEGO® Masters USA, and not Canada. But, for now, Canadian LEGO® fans will have to live vicariously through our neighbors south of the border. Luckily, FOX is available in Canada. Let the games begin!
The host of the show is none other than LEGO® Batman himself, Will Arnett. Additionally, the show features 20 contestants divided into ten teams. Over the next few weeks, the teams face building challenges that will determine who wins the cash prize, LEGO® trophy, and the title of LEGO® Masters. I plan to watch this show closely and am very excited for it to begin. So excited, in fact, that I plan to stay up past my bedtime once a week just to see what happens next. That all begins tonight!
To kick things off this week, each pair of contestants will have to build a section of a theme park. The goal will be to combine all the sections and create a theme park world. I will look at how it turns out in a future post. However, for now, let’s look at the contestants! (A special shout out to the LEGO® AFOL Engagement Team for providing the following pics and info.)
The Bearded Builders

East Coast Bricksters

The Unicorns

Father and Son BFFs

Brothers Who Brick

The Eccentrics
