LEGO fans can build a vending machine that dispenses Minifigures
The machine vends mystery sets for you to build
The LEGO Group has announced the launch of the LEGO Ideas Minifigure Vending Machine set; a retro-inspired building set designed for adults - with 1,343 pieces.
I insert the included LEGO coin, turn the handle, and release one of 16 capsules, each containing bricks to build a minifigure. Each figure is a surprise, featuring nostalgic themes like Castle, Paradisa, and Fabuland, as well as Classic Space explorers and even the LEGO Ideas Fan Designer who uploaded the product idea to www.ideas.LEGO.com
The functional brick-built vending machine offers collectors exclusive, nostalgic minifigures.
The LEGO Ideas Minifigure Vending Machine set was submitted by Belgium-based Fan Designer, Rob Vangansewinkel, as part of the LEGO Ideas programme. LEGO Ideas allows fans to submit product ideas, which are then voted for by the community before being considered to be made into a real LEGO set.
Rob said: 'As a kid, I had a real vending machine at home and loved it - so the idea of creating a working LEGO brick version that dispenses minifigures just clicked. I started with a digital version of the model and posted it on LEGO Ideas. But I wasn't sure if the dispensing mechanism would really work, so I spent about two months testing and refining the design with actual LEGO bricks. I even took apart my old vending machine to understand the mechanics and make it work, and I'm so proud of the final product."

The set blends LEGO building techniques with a true-to-life vending mechanism, complete with a click as you turn the knob.
The LEGO Ideas Minifigure Vending Machine set is available for LEGO Insiders early access from June 1, 2025, and for all from June 6, via LEGO.com/MinifigureVendingMachine and LEGO Stores, priced at € 169.99 / £ 149.99 / $ 179.99.

Bonnie Blue sends Ibiza Final Boss cheeky message after girlfriend trouble
Ibiza Final Boss Jack Kay has caught the attention of adult star Bonnie Blue while he parties in Ibiza amid reports that his girlfriend dumped him over his antics. Ibiza Final Boss Jack Kay has flown back out to Ibiza with his mates via private jet and has now attracted the attention of adult star Bonnie Blue. The 26-year-old Geordie became an internet sensation overnight when his Lego-style haircut went viral. Since then he has become a household meme with millions of views, announced his own tour and swapped easyJet for a private plane. Jack flew back to his homeland briefly to get a fresh trim, only to head straight back out to the party island. The lad posted an update on Instagram to his 105k followers as he touched down in Ibiza. Driving a Mercedes G-wagon with his signature shades and Turkey Teeth smile, Jack's pal filmed him fist pumping the air to the music with one hand on the wheel. Jack, also known as 'Ibiza Bob', wrote a cryptic caption, telling fans: "The final boss can't be slayed… your misses on the other hand? Her levels been completed". Bonnie Blue has now weighed in on Jack's overnight success as she appears to be desperate to get his attention. The 26-year-old adult star is known for her rage-bait tactics and visiting party hot spots to find men to sleep with and film for her work, including 'barely legal' teens. Bonnie Blue was seen leaving a cheeky comment underneath Jack's post as she replied with a simple eyes emoji, which is often used as a suggestive way of hinting at something. The controversial sex star has been banned from adult platform OnlyFans after staging a 'petting zoo stunt' which would have seen her "tied down" in a glass box in a house in London, where strangers would come and do "whatever they wanted". In her recent Channel 4 documentary, she bragged: "I am going to be completely helpless, tied down, gagged, choked". She received fierce backlash from critics who claim the 'event' glorifies rape culture and perpetuates dangerous myths around sex. Bonnie's interaction with Jack comes amid reports that the 26-year-old's love life is in trouble. His glamorous girlfriend, Alisha Cook, reportedly dumped him on his first Ibiza trip, just days before he went viral. Jack is said to be fighting to save his relationship with the model and and debt collector from Co Durham.. Alisa was reportedly so angry with her boyfriend for partying in Ibiza that she dumped him before videos of his haircut made him go viral. The pair have allegedly talked things through since but a pal of Jack's warned he was 'skating on thin ice' over his party lifestyle. They told the Daily Mail: "Alisha called it off when Jack went to Ibiza with the lads. They'd been together for almost a year and he was living at her place but things hadn't been right for months. "His car is still on her drive, she threw all his clothes in the back of it. She doesn't want him around anymore. She's had inklings that something was not right for a while. She just wants to wash her hands of him. Alisha is so beautiful. No one is quite sure what she saw in him." However, it appears Alisha had a quick change of heart as she has publicly declared herself as Jack's girlfriend since he rose to fame. In a series of TikTok videos captioned: "POV: ya boyfriend's now known as Ibiza Final Boss," Alisha is seen cosying up to Jack, including clips of him kissing her cheek and the two of them partying together Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'Ibiza Final Boss' Jack Kay dumped by girlfriend over viral haircut
The Geordie went viral after his iconic bowl haircut barbershop style was shared online. While Ibiza Final Boss Jack Kay may be revelling in his newfound fame, jetting around on private planes with his mates, it seems there's a storm brewing in paradise for the viral sensation and his stunning girlfriend. The 26 year old lad, initially just another Brit in a black vest and gold chain looking for a good time on the White Isle, saw his life transform overnight into an internet phenomenon, with memes of his distinctive haircut taking over social media. Having swapped EasyJet for a private jet back to the party island after a fresh trim and announcing his own tour, it hasn't all been smooth sailing. This follows 'Ibiza Bob' reuniting with his barber after his iconic bowl cut went viral. Now, it has emerged that the lad who shot to viral fame thanks to his Lego-like haircut is fighting to salvage his relationship with his model girlfriend, following reports she ended things while he was partying away in Ibiza. The reported blow to his relationship came just days into his trip abroad - and before his viral breakout, reports the Mirror. Alisa Cook, a debt collector from Co Durham, was reportedly so incensed by her boyfriend's partying antics in Ibiza that she called it quits before videos of his unique hairstyle catapulted him to viral fame. The couple have reportedly mended fences since then, but a friend of Jack's has cautioned that he's 'skating on thin ice' due to his party-loving lifestyle. They confided to the Daily Mail: "Alisha called it off when Jack went to Ibiza with the lads. They'd been together for almost a year and he was living at her place but things hadn't been right for months. "His car is still on her drive, she threw all his clothes in the back of it. She doesn't want him around anymore. She's had inklings that something was not right for a while. She just wants to wash her hands of him. Alisha is so beautiful. No one is quite sure what she saw in him." However, it appears Alisha may have had a change of heart as she has since publicly identified herself as Jack's girlfriend following his rise to internet fame. In a string of TikTok videos titled: "POV: ya boyfriend's now known as Ibiza Final Boss," Alisha can be seen getting cosy with Jack, featuring clips of him pecking her on the cheek and them both enjoying a night out. The video has been set to private, yet it didn't stop fans from sharing their thoughts in the comments section, with one quipping: "At least you know he didn't cheat - he's been filmed from every angle on TikTok just having a ball." Another commented: "Have a word with his barber - I don't know how he leaves the house." A third chimed in with a jest: "So was the haircut a choice, or did the barber do him dirty?". This comes after the barber responsible for the infamous Ibiza Final Boss haircut finally spilled the beans on what Jack requests to get his signature style. Ali Kurbani, the skilled barber behind the signature look at BandD Barbers in Blaydon, Newcastle, has caught the eye of top-tier stars and even sparked nationwide advertising campaigns. Thursday saw Ali welcome Jack back to his salon chair ahead of another Ibiza tour. Ali confessed his astonishment at seeing his craftsmanship dominate the news cycle. "I've been doing this job for a while, and this is incredible," he said. "We've been cutting Jack's hair for about 10 years and never expected this level of attention." Hailing from Kurdistan originally, Ali revealed that Jack has maintained the identical hairstyle for quite some time. Following endless online debate about the look - with suggestions ranging from Robin Hood to a bowl cut or even a "short back and Battle of Hastings" - Ali has finally cleared up the mystery. "To get this look, Jack asks for a medium skin fade with some length left on top," Ali told The Sun. However, the key to achieving the haircut's distinctive, Lego-esque appearance comes down to maintaining a sharp, precisely-defined fringe at the front. The "Ibiza Boss" trim at BandD Barbers will set you back £26, although Jack - whom Ali describes as a "very nice guy," - occasionally adds a generous tip.
