Moana, the newest heroine and kick-ass namesake of Disney’s critically acclaimed feature (out in theaters now), has already conquered the mystery of the open seas, but she’s got another territory to dive into: Your toy chest. EW has an exclusive reveal of the brand new Moana LEGO sets, courtesy of the brick-masters themselves. She joins all of her fellow royals in the company’s still-recent Disney Princess collection (which includes the princess stars of films like Frozen, The Little Mermaid, Tangled, Aladdin, Cinderella, and Beauty and the Beast and all assorted castles and/or cottage dwellings of each). Moana fans can enjoy two new sets: The first, Moana’s Ocean Voyage, takes place during Moana’s trip on the sea to track down Te Fiti and includes Moana, her rooster Heihei, magical demigod Maui, and the attack by the villainous Kakamora.
The other, Moana’s Island Adventure, explores the isle of Motunui and scenes from Moana’s early life there, including her pet pig, Pua. The dual LEGO sets are $39.99 and $24.99, respectively, and will go on sale this Sunday, just in time for Cyber Monday.If you're a fan of Lego and the car kits it sells, we have some great news for you. There are six new Speed Champions sets for 2016. And they are amazing sets.You can choose from a new Mustang, an Audi R18, an Audi R8 LMS, a Camaro two pack, a Ford Raptor and Deuce Coupe, and a Porsche 919/917 two pack.A photo of all six new sets showed up on Brickset Forum thanks to poster crazycarl. There's enough variety among the different sets, you can probably find one you'll like no matter what you're into. The SVT Raptor towing the hotrod might be our favorite, but if we're being completely honest, all six of them would be welcome on our kitchen tables.The new sets also pair nicely with the 2015 ones that Lego already sells. For those of us who don't have the garage space to work on project cars, at least there will always be new Lego cars to build.

As in, we figured Lego planned to sell customers a Porsche 911 wearing full-size prototype camouflage of the ilk often seen in spy photos.
A bit of a narrow scope, for sure, but endlessly cool nonetheless. It turns out, Lego was playing coy, and the camo on that 911 kit was actually there for camouflage purposes, as it would be on a full-size car trying to hide in plain sight. We know that because the “production-ready” 911 GT3 RS–aping Technic kit has officially debuted—sans camouflage. If you’re wondering why this 911 model appears slightly, er, emaciated, that’s because it is being released under Lego’s “Technic” product line, wherein models are rendered in a more technical look. (Vehicles from the Creator line, such as the Volkswagen T1 Camper Van, the Mini Cooper, and the Ferrari F40, are more fully formed.) In place of the prototype Lego kit’s camouflage body panels are pieces rendered in a bright orange hue like that available on the real-life 911 GT3 RS. The wheels are neat, scale versions of the GT3 RS’s rims, too. If you squint and sit back, the kit does look like a Porsche, although we must admit that the proportions are slightly off.
In photos, this 911 GT3 RS instead appears mid-engined, not rear-engined, and thus bears a resemblance to a Cayman GT4. Either way, this 2704-piece Porsche looks like a Porsche. It’s also massively cool, and cooly massive—at 1:8 scale, the Lego 911 GT3 RS measures 22 inches long, nine inches wide, and six inches tall.

This being a Porsche, there is a matching suitcase for the luggage compartment, a serial number in the opening glovebox, and a steering wheel with shift paddles. Oh, and there are RS badges on the wheels, detailed brake calipers, and—hell, we’ll stop there because we know you already want this Lego Porsche.
