LEGO has an "Ideas" website that allows fans to submit mockups and suggestions for future LEGO sets, and one fan has designed a faithful recreation of Apple's iconic 1998 iMac G3 in translucent Bondi Blue.
Designer terauma's 700-piece concept stays true to the original setup, including the distinctive all-in-one computer, "hockey puck" mouse, and matching keyboard, all connected with the appropriately translucent cables that defined the era's aesthetic.
The design incorporates the classic clear elements throughout and includes internal details like a cathode ray tube and even a circuit board representation.
Since launching on May 17, the proposal has gathered nearly 4,500 votes. If the LEGO iMac G3 gets 10,000 "supporters" or votes on the LEGO ideas site, LEGO will review it and will consider it for an official retail set.
It's unclear if Apple would approve such a set, and it's unknown if it will pass LEGO's review. LEGO evaluates submissions based on existing products, products already in development, brand fit, expected demand, licensing possibilities, build quality, and more.
The submission follows other Apple-themed LEGO concepts, including last year's Apple Store design that successfully reached the review threshold. If you're into LEGO, maybe consider giving it your vote!

Apple is planning to launch new MacBook Pro models as soon as early March, but if you can, this is one generation you should skip because there's something much better in the works.
We're waiting on 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, with few changes other than the processor upgrade. There won't be any tweaks to the design or the display, but later this...

It has been a slow start to 2026 for Apple product launches, with only a new AirTag and a special Apple Watch band released so far. We are still waiting for MacBook Pro models with M5 Pro and M5 Max chips, the iPhone 17e, a lower-cost MacBook with an iPhone chip, long-rumored updates to the Apple TV and HomePod mini, and much more.
Apple is expected to release/update the following products...

Apple plans to announce the iPhone 17e on Thursday, February 19, according to Macwelt, the German equivalent of Macworld.
The report said the iPhone 17e will be announced in a press release on the Apple Newsroom website, so do not expect an event for this device specifically.

Apple acquired Canadian graph database company Kuzu last year, it has emerged.
The acquisition, spotted by AppleInsider, was completed in October 2025 for an undisclosed sum. The company's website was subsequently taken down and its Github repository was archived, as is commonplace for Apple acquisitions.
Kuzu was "an embedded graph database built for query speed, scalability, and easy of ...
Looks cool, hope it reaches the finish line and gets picked to be made into a set.
The IDEAS sets usually change a little between "concept" and "product", but I can imagine Lego going for this - it'll sell well for them, and the profit margin on their IDEA S/ "Adult" lego sets is extremely high.
I'd guess it comes down to Apple agreeing or not. If Apple agree, they'd be lunatics not to insist on a unique "Apple Logo" printed/etched brick ( not just a sticker).
Lego is great. I went from playing the lego as a kid to taking apart and rebuilding electronics and then computers. Lego was good training.
Yeah Apple needs to agree to it as well. And many "licensed" Ideas sets fail at that point (look at all the Nintendo-based Ideas sets prior to Lego working with Nintendo, all of them rejected) and then the set is redesigned by Lego (emplyees) designers based on the original submission. (Which means that yes, thing will become different. But mostly for the better)
So.. 1. It needs to reach 10.000 supporters (easy part) 2. Lego needs to agree to create it. 3. Lego needs to choose this set out of multiple entries that reached support. 4. Apple needs to agree to license their logo.
Only then the set actually made into a Lego product and it will take 1-3 years for it to be released.
