Klodshans was an internal magazine published for employees of the LEGO Group. It started publication in 1973[1] and has been confirmed to be published up until 1999, with several issues published each year. There is currently incredibly little information about these, and they are rare finds. Several exist in private collections but the vast majority have not been scanned. The term LEGO Review also appears on a 1982 magazine, but it is unclear if LEGO Review is a separate magazine that just happened to be combined this time, or if every now and then a Klodshans is also a "LEGO Review".

As these were only available to employees, they are rare, exclusive, and essentially the "holy grails" of LEGO magazines to scan and archive, because they sometimes contain information and media of LEGO development and in-development products that the public has never seen before.
