As April Fools’ Day rolls around, it’s become a tradition for companies to create fake products or promotions to prank their customers. This year, LEGO enthusiasts were not spared, with several fake LEGO promos surfacing on the internet.

One of the fake promos was for the Botanical Collection H2O set, which purported to feature an special bricks you could use to water your LEGO plants. Another fake promo was for the Botanical Collection Soil set, which claimed to let users grow their own plants on the specially designed LEGO soil.

There was also a video promoting Wicked Bricks nesting display cases, which supposedly allowed LEGO fans to display their collections in style, and protect any underlaying display case from dust.

Another video showcased the LEGO The Majestic Horse set, which featured a buildable horse with flowing mane and tail.

But not all the fake LEGO promos were in the form of visuals. Brickset, a popular LEGO news and reviews website, wrote a satirical piece on the Product Cancellation Initiative, poking fun at LEGO’s tendency to cancel popular sets.

While these fake promos were clearly intended to be humorous, they do serve as a reminder to be wary of new product announcements around April Fools’ Day. With so many companies creating fake ads and promotions, it’s important to double-check the authenticity of any exciting news.

In conclusion, while it can be fun to indulge in the April Fools’ Day pranks, it’s important to take any new product announcements with a grain of salt. It’s always better to wait for official confirmation before getting too excited about a new LEGO set.
