Hello and welcome to Jay’s Brick Blog! My name is Jay (duh) and this blog serves as a creative outlet where I can gush about everything I love about LEGO.
Jay’s Brick Blog is a LEGO blog with a distinctive Aussie flavour that primarily focuses on high quality editorial content and perspectives from an average guy with an above average love of LEGO.
This blog is all about celebrating the love of LEGO, sharing exciting news and being a hub for LEGO fans to connect with one another. Jay’s Brick Blog is a Registered LEGO Fan Media (new designation for recognised LEGO User Group).
I mostly enjoy writing independent and comprehensive LEGO set reviews, updates on LEGO news and sales and sharing my perspectives and thoughts on the latest LEGO news.
I have an extensive collection of LEGO Set Reviews that’s curated in the Review Hub.
Whether you’re a brand new LEGO fan, someone rediscovering your love for LEGO or a seasoned collector/builder, I hope to write LEGO content that everyone can enjoy.
If you’d like to keep up with the latest posts, I encourage you to subscribe to receive updates in your inbox or like the Jay’s Brick Blog Facebook page.
If you have any questions or would just like to geek out with a fellow LEGO enthusiast, you can email me at: jaysbrickblog [at] gmail.com.

About Me
I’m in my late 20s, and live in the wonderful city of Melbourne, Australia.
I returned to LEGO in 2010 after a hiatus (Dark Ages) of over a decade and began writing this blog in late 2010 to document my return to this hobby.
I have an eclectic taste in LEGO, focusing on collecting themes such as Super Heroes to Friends to LEGO Minifigures. My favourite themes of all time include M-Tron, Blacktron 1, Ice Planet, Divers, Lord of the Rings and DC Super Heroes.
When I’m not writing about LEGO or building, I work in the Marketing Communications industry and enjoy cafe-hopping in Melbourne. I have a crippling addiction to coffee (long blacks only) that almost rivals my addiction to the plastic brick.
I can also be followed on Google, Instagram and Twitter at @jayong28 for a peek into my muggle life.

It’s a tiny amount (less than the cost of a coffee) but it goes a long way in supplementing the costs of running this site!
