Snr Global Brand Strategist @ the LEGO Group (opinions own, etc). Mainly working on LEGO Games, Ninjago, and Technic. It's fun. Occasional sender of fivethingsonfriday.com. I got ❤️ for writing, gaming, and figuring stuff out. He/Him.
One month later, after several terrible exchanges with the "customer service" team at The Magnum Company, the Mrs decided to do something about it. This morning she was on BBC Breakfast doing just that. 6m people now know about how dangerous this is. And I'm so proud 🥲 ❤️

James Whatley@whatleydude.com · 2mo agoWell, the Mrs having one of the worst allergic reactions I've seen in a good couple of years is at least one way to find out Walls have just gone and added milk to their Twister ice creams. Way to go, dickheads. www.anaphylaxis.org.uk/product-aler...
I'm in Denmark this week, doing Minecrafty things and tending to some Ninjago-y things. I still cannot believe I get to work on this: NINJAGO LEGENDS DUSKFALL www.youtube.com/watch?v=hiV1...

Two new LEGO Technic sets are out this weekend: The Dodge Viper GTS-R and the 2019 Ferrari 488 Pista, and I'm proud as punch to say that we've been working with the Forza Horizon 6 team to gift ALL players these unique LEGO-inspired liveries to use in-game 🥰 🥰 🥰 (should be in your messages now)

Organised a ridiculous surprise champagne tasting for the Mrs. It's been a rough few weeks, what with bad allergy responses and hospital visits etc so this evening happening AT ALL was a minor miracle. But we did it, Joe.
The LEGO Technic partnership in Forza Horizon 6 is now live, but the in-game items are a lot more affordable than we expected, since they're completely free. www.brickfanatics.com/free-lego-te... #LEGO #LEGOTechnic #ForzaHorizon #LEGONews

Love it when publications straight up put movie spoilers in the headlines of their articles. Forbes, get in the bin.
If you’re thinking about getting the X-Files Lego set, if you get a Lego Insider account then the set is available on their website early (ie today), and while stocks last you also get Scully’s lab as a free gift 🚀 JUST. SAYING.
I wish I could pin someone else's skeets; this would be at the top of my profile forever.

How do you say: 'Sorry, I won't meet you at Gamescom because the last time I saw you there I had to literally rescue a colleague from your lecherous come ons' Yes, I fully appreciate that I can actually say that (and I'm tempted) but I don't want to put the woman in question in his firing line.
Updates: Ninjago: DUSKFALL is coming. Technic: KOENIGSEGG. Gaming...? See you Gamescom x
James Whatley@whatleydude.com · 2mo agoMan, SO MUCH good work stuff coming out the oven over the next few months. Gaming: gonna EAT Ninjago: gonna EAT Technic: gonna EAT I've been so busy I've barely written a newsletter all year - finally all that labour will bear fruit. I can't waaaaaaaaaaait.
I've confirmed that the UK's new Sovereign AI Fund does no due diligence on whether AI companies use copyrighted work without permission before investing in them. It took me 3 Freedom of Information requests to find this out: 🧵 1/10

A good short thread of the big four consultancies going through the simple process of someone ...checks notes... reading their reports properly. Reminds me of that WSJ/McKinsey Metaverse report (are we making trillions yet?)
Hetan Shah@hetanshah.bsky.social · 2mo agoIt’s especially funny the KPMG report was called ‘Redefining excellence in the age of agentic AI’ which they certainly sought to do! www.ft.com/content/b382...
Bluesky is actually really fun if you block the right 27,000 people
The Mrs has suddenly got into Fortnite. Like, 'gone in the cupboard, found my old PS4 and set up her own little gaming corner in the living room' levels of got into Fortnite. Honestly I respect it.
I think this trailer finally dropping means I might have to finally pick up the Twin Mechs😍

To be clear, we ALL know ONSLAUGHT is coming right? Like, we ALL spend EVERY EPISODE looking at the signs. EVERYONE KNOWS he is hiding on every corner right? Polaris this, Magneto that. We're going to start an episode and Juggernaut will be on his ass.. ONSLAUGHT IS COMING. (S3 NAILED ON)
I was going to add '🔜 Gamescom' to my Bluesky profile but apparently I can't do that because I'm verified. Oh well. This will have to suffice: I WILL BE AT GAMESCOM. Done x
