LEGO January 2026 Restocks Continue Across Icons and Licensed Sets
LEGO retailers are continuing to roll out January 2026 restocks across several established lines, including LEGO Icons and licensed pop culture sets that sold through heavily during the holiday period. These are not new reveals, but availability updates, with sets reappearing at LEGO.com and major retailers.
For collectors, this is one of the better weeks to secure sets that were hard to find in December without paying aftermarket prices.

Disney+ January 2026 Line-Up Expands This Week
Disney+ continues its January 2026 rollout, with additional catalogue titles and family-focused content landing this week. While there are no major tentpole premieres today, this marks the platform’s first full post-holiday content cadence of the year.
This is typically when quieter but worthwhile additions appear, especially catalogue films and international content.

Horror Titles Maintain Strong Home-Viewing Performance
Industry viewing charts show late-2025 horror releases continuing to perform well on streaming platforms into mid-January. This reflects an ongoing trend where horror titles see extended life once audiences settle into post-holiday viewing routines.
Studios are expected to use this data to shape release strategies later in 2026.

Retailers report steady interest as readers return after the holiday lull.
