GUANGZHOU, China, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LUMIBRICKS, formerly known as FUNWHOLE, proudly announces its rebranding as it continues to lead the light-integrated building brick toy industry. As the pioneering company specializing in building brick sets with patented lighting systems integrated into every model, LUMIBRICKS has consistently elevated the concept of illuminated play. Each set is designed to delight consumers with surprisingly beautiful lighting effects, thanks to innovative, safe, and easy-to-install lighting modules that transform traditional bricks into glowing, interactive experiences.
Over the years, FUNWHOLE has built a reputation for original creativity, launching a range of inspired series that captured the imaginations of builders worldwide. The Cyberpunk Neoncity series established itself as a flagship line, featuring dystopian skylines, neon street scenes, and futuristic vehicles—each element enhanced by dynamic LED effects. Equally impressive, the Steampunk World series blended Victorian aesthetics with industrial machinery, creating intricate structures that glow with warm, vintage-inspired light. Meanwhile, the Street Fusion series celebrated urban culture, combining modern architecture and street art with vibrant lighting accents. These collections showcased FUNWHOLE's ability to merge storytelling, design, and technology into cohesive, immersive sets.
Under its new name, LUMIBRICKS will continue to bring joy and innovation to the building brick community. The rebrand signifies more than a change in identity; it represents a promise to deliver even greater creativity, new series concepts, cutting-edge lighting effects, and refreshed designs. Existing favorites like Cyberpunk Neoncity, Steampunk World, and Street Fusion will see expanded lineups and enhanced features, while upcoming releases will introduce novel themes and advanced illumination techniques. Whether fans are enthusiasts of sci-fi landscapes, retro-futuristic machinery, or urban street culture, LUMIBRICKS aims to exceed expectations by pushing the boundaries of what's possible with light-integrated bricks.
As LUMIBRICKS embarks on this next chapter, the company remains dedicated to fostering a vibrant, supportive community. Builders can look forward to interactive events, collaborative design challenges, and sneak peeks of future releases. With a renewed focus on innovation and quality, LUMIBRICKS invites fans—both old and new—to join in celebrating the art of illuminated brick building.

HOTLIST is a expert-curated list reflecting the evolving values of the market at each stage of development. The selection process combines the expertise of a prestigious advisory council comprising both domestic and international experts, based on key criteria including quality, innovation, social impact, and sustainable growth potential.

HOTLIST 2025: From Seed to Harvest
Entering 2025, HOTLIST is developed under the theme "From Seed to Harvest" inspired by rice, a symbol deeply rooted in Vietnam's wet-rice civilisation and cultural identity.

At a time when the tourism sector faces multiple challenges such as climate change, shifting traveller behaviour, and global competition, the spirit of "From Seed to Harvest" underscores the importance of long-term vision, perseverance, and adaptability.

On 19 January 2026, The Honor Ceremony will take place in Ho Chi Minh City to officially recognise and present certificates to the brands, projects, and individuals featured in HOTLIST 2025. The event will also serve as a B2B networking platform for industry stakeholders.
