Last season was won by Perth hipsters Alex and Jackson after building a Frankenstein-inspired world of a mad scientist. Set in a Victorian-era village, they named their robot the Frankenfig. Their build depicted the Frankenfig bursting through a mountain and terrorising the town below.

Lego Masters season three contestants
Adrian Swift the head of content, production and development at Nine spoke to Mediaweek and said that Lego Masters is in a state of constant improvement.
“We have to have a time constraint, so you never get the ultimate builds, but we have tried to make the builders better. When the show first started your average Lego builder tends to go ‘bloody television it won’t be real’ but I think what happened is people have seen that it’s a genuine competition for people that can genuinely build. We have had a lot more people come out of the woodwork and a lot more applicants which I think leads to better quality.
“The builds this year are more fired by their imaginations, so it is less bridge building and more come up with a crazy idea that you can put in a snow globe. We have let them off the leash a little bit, and it is less mechanistic and more imagination.”
Lego Masters comes from producers Endemol Shine Australia with executive producer David McDonald. The series is adapted from an original UK format from Tuesday’s Child Productions and The Lego Group.
