Revision as of 08:01, 5 August 2024

Klodshans was an internal magazine published for employees of the LEGO Group. It started publication in 1973, replacing an earlier publication, LEGO knoppen, and was published alongside a weekly bulletin, LEGO Inform.[1] Klodshans has been confirmed to be published up until 1999, with several issues published each year. An alternative version, LEGO Review, was published for LEGO UK Ltd in the United Kingdom (LEGO revue for LEGO GmbH in Germany)[2] There is currently incredibly little information about these, and they are rare finds. Several exist in private collections with the vast majority having never been scanned.

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.

List of issues

LEGO knoppen

No information about LEGO knoppen exists outside of a single mention in the book "50 years of play".

Klodshans

The August 1982 issue was a special one celebrating the 50th anniversary of the LEGO Company. It combined Klodshans and LEGO Review into a single volume published with Danish, English, and German text.

LEGO Review

LEGO Review is supposedly the UK/English version of Klodshans. Some paper I found talking about mathematics of Lego or something has a story about Lego UK marketing guy Clive Nicholls supposedly sourced from an issue of it, so they are out there and available somewhere. Searching for it just turns up reviews of Lego products...

LEGO revue

LEGO revue was the German version of LEGO Review, which supposedly had the exact same content but in German.

LEGO Life

A newer internal magazine[4], possibly replacing Lego Review. Online sources mentioning it suggest it existed at least since 2004 and did as recently as 2015. Annoyingly the Club magazine has been called Lego Life since 2017 so searching for information or copies is tough.
