The BricksFanz Awards 2022
It’s New Year’s Eve and 2022 is coming to a close as the clock ticks down to another year and the BricksFanz Awards are back. I’ve taken a look back over the past 12 months and picked some of my favourite LEGO-related things to occur in the year gone by. It’s certainly been another eventful year, with the LEGO Group celebrating 90 Years of Play. In fact, it has been a year of LEGO milestones with LEGO Friends reaching its 10th...
10312: Jazz Club LEGO Modular Building Review
I’m quite the newbie when it comes to LEGO® Modulars. The first one I built was the Book Shop and I’ve been lucky enough to get them for review purposes ever since. I’ve always admired the modular buildings range and fully understand their appeal. The only reason I never delved into them was the lack of space to display them and the Pokémon nurtured urge to ‘catch them all’ would make me seek out past...
LEGO 2022 Set Reviews Round-up
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve had the pleasure of being able to review some of the new LEGO® sets being released tomorrow. Things kicked off with LEGO Star Wars, before taking a look at the 15th Anniversary Modular Buildings Collection set, the Boutique Hotel. I’ve also checked out new LEGO Marvel sets and most of the upcoming LEGO Super Mario sets, including the new Luigi’s Mansion expansion sets....
71398: Dorrie’s Beachfront LEGO Set Review
It’s not just Luigi getting in on the LEGO® Super Mario Expansion Set action this January, as his big bro is back with a couple of sets of his own. They are quite the opposite of the dark and spooky offering from Luigi, as Mario’s sets take the plucky plumber to the sunny beaches of the Mushroom Kingdom. The smallest of the two Mario Expansion Sets is Dorrie’s Beachfront. As the name suggests it gives off some sunny...
High Res Images Of Upcoming March LEGO Sets
Although these upcoming new LEGO® set details have been doing the rounds since before Christmas, thanks to physical catalogues appearing in some stores, page scans don’t always offer the best look at products. So now the digital version has been uploaded to the interweb by LEGO Japan, we can get a much better look at some of the new LEGO City, Friends, Technic, Creator 3-in-1, Classic, DUPLO and Harry Potter sets due to be...
Introducing LEGO Ideas Sonic The Hedgehog
It’s been a long time coming but today, LEGO® Ideas officially reveals the latest set to join the fan designed line-up. The blue blur once against speeds into the brick-built world of LEGO, this time as part of LEGO Ideas. The set recreates the most iconic location from the Sonic games, Green Hill Zone. As well as a buildable section of the level, the set also features a brand-new version of the Sonic Minifigure, along with...
41707: Tree-Planting Vehicle Set Review
LEGO Friends has always had an odd relationship with LEGO fans. Many simply wrote it off as a girls theme and the use of Mini-dolls has always been a sticking point when compared to Minifigures. I personally have no issues with either. In fact, there have been plenty of impressive little Friends sets and they have become way more diverse over the years. Despite my appreciation for the theme, I don’t give it enough coverage, but...
