Returning to host the show is Hamish Blake alongside judge, Ryan “Brickman” McNaught.
This year, the new Titanium Brick of Triumph will wield unprecedented power, changing hands during the competition as the contestants play for it with every build.
In a program first, the show will be heading out of the studio and into the world as the teams’ builds come face to face with the unpredictable Australian weather. In two more new challenges, the teams must come up with gravity-defying builds that survive soaring heights and nailbiting lows.
The new season promises more amazement than ever, in spectacular challenges that will excite and surprise.

Last year, David and Gus were named the winners of the third season of Lego Masters with the pair taking home $100,000 along with the coveted Lego Masters trophy.
Not only did they need to impress the expert “Brickman”, but also 250 members of the public who voted for their favourite build.
McNaught was brought to tears due to the builds, saying “Lego is humble… it’s beautiful”. David and Gus decided on a diorama. Their story, set in a forest, had two deer being preyed upon by a pack of wolves.
The last episode of Lego Masters season three had 1.03m tune in for the winner announcement and 932,000 for the grand finale.
