Meanwhile, Jacob said that he has always wanted to have BTS Lego since he first became a fan of the South Korean group so he made a few MOCs (my own creations) of the members. "I wanted to merge my love for their music with my passion for Lego," he continued.
As of writing, LEGO has not yet specified when the BTS "Dynamite" Lego set will hit shelves, but it's sure to sell out at a speed of light considering the recent BTS "Artist-Made Collection" merchandise that went out of stock in just seconds.
