What are the greatest sets in my collection... right now? It's time for the 2026 Edition of My Top 10 Sets in My Collection, and if you watched last year's list, prepare yourself—because a lot has changed.

This isn't simply a rerun with a few minor adjustments. Over the past year, several longtime favorites have fallen down the rankings, multiple new entries have stormed onto the list, and some sets that once seemed untouchable have found themselves fighting just to stay relevant.

But before we begin, there are three important rules:

✅ This list is highly subjective. ✅ My rankings change over time. ✅ It's my collection.

And here's where things get interesting...

Many viewers will assume they already know what my favorite sets are. Some of you might even think you know which set takes the #1 spot. But this year's rankings contain a few surprises, including several newcomers and at least one entry that isn't even a LEGO set.

That's right.

This list isn't about brand loyalty, resale value, or what the internet thinks should be ranked highest. It's about the models that mean the most to me as a collector, builder, and fan.

Along the way we'll discuss: ✅ What moved up from last year's rankings ✅ Which former favorites dropped down the list ✅ The biggest new additions to the collection ✅ Why certain sets continue to stand the test of time ✅ The personal stories behind some of my favorite builds

Will a massive display piece claim the top spot? Will nostalgia win out? Will a licensed theme dominate the rankings? Or could a completely unexpected contender take the crown? You'll have to watch all the way to the end to find out.

And speaking of the end...

For the first time, we're introducing a brand-new segment where I read and respond to comments from viewers of previous episodes! So stick around after the rankings to see if your comment made the show and hear some thoughts from fellow members of the Imagination Brickshop community. Credit this idea to Slap Shot Bricks.

What do you think deserves the title of the greatest set in my collection? Leave your predictions in the comments before the countdown begins!

The BrickLink Designer Program Series 8 crowdfunding campaign is officially underway, and we're checking in on all five projects to see which sets are dominating the preorder race and which ones may still be fighting to reach their goals before the June 18th deadline.

We'll also break down a mountain of new LEGO leaks and rumors, including:

✅ LEGO Icons Lord of the Rings: Oliphaunt ✅ LEGO Icons Star Trek: The Original Series Bridge ✅ LEGO Icons Sandworm from Dune ✅ LEGO Arcade Pinball Machine ✅ LEGO Hubble Space Telescope ✅ LEGO Ideas Godzilla and its rumored Black Friday release ✅ LEGO Pokémon Munchlax ✅ LEGO Technic Koenigsegg Sadair's Spear ✅ LEGO Christmas Buddy the Elf ✅ LEGO Shrek Collectible Minifigure Series

LEGO Titanic Review | Is This 9,090-Piece Giant Still Worth It in 2026?

In this episode of Imagination Brickshop, we're taking a deep dive into one of the most impressive LEGO sets ever released — the LEGO Icons Titanic (10294)!

Originally released in November 2021, this massive 9,090-piece masterpiece recreates the most famous ocean liner in history at an incredible scale, stretching over 53 inches long and packed with stunning details from bow to stern. But nearly five years after its release, does the LEGO Titanic still deserve a place among the greatest LEGO sets ever made?

Join me as I explore the fascinating history behind the RMS Titanic and the incredible size and scale of the LEGO model. I cover what's included in the build experience across 46 bags and 3 instruction manuals, Display value, building techniques, and standout features, and whether this legendary set is still worth adding to your collection in 2026.

From its elegant decks and towering funnels to its detailed interior sections, the LEGO Titanic remains one of the most ambitious building experiences LEGO has ever produced.

Have you built the Titanic? Let me know in the comments if you think it still ranks among LEGO's greatest sets of all time!
