Hey i've got two of these lamps: Cream Desk Lamps 40W From Hombase and was wondering if it would burn my set?
P.S. It is about 20cm - 40cm away from the set

nope
or at least I HIGHLY doubt it.
Lego bricks are made of Acrylonitrile Butadine Styrene (ABS) which melts at 105 degrees C. (221 degrees F).
Your hand can stand about 55 to 60 degrees C. So if your hand is OK at that distance lego bricks will be.
Just don't build your scenery out of chocolate bricks then you wont have any problems!
And the distance from the bricks.
nope. I run 40wat halogens with no trouble.

i doubt it.when i was new to brickfilming, i used my dads huge lamps that were like a foot wide. after like 3 minutes i started to sweat and the bricks were still fine
I highly doubt but just dont wrap paper round it!
Once I had a light that set my paper on fire, melted my Lego and burned my hand twice. Its gone now but I always hated it!:no:
You should get 25W to be able to wrap paper round it really.
