Click & Snap: Playing With Your Food
They say you shouldn’t play with your food, but it’s fine when it’s made from plastic and worn by a minifigure. As LEGO® minifigures have become elaborate, they have donned all sorts of weird and wonderful outfits.

Click & Snap: Snowflake Plaza 2021
Every year I, like many LEGO® fans, like to celebrate the festivities of Christmas through the magic of LEGO sets.

Click & Snap: The Series 19 Crew
Ahead of my full review of the new series of LEGO® Minifigures, I’ve been taking some snaps of the new characters and sharing them on social media. So I thought it would be fun to collect them all together here for a new edition of Click & Snap. The series is filled some great new elements and characters with fun connections to past series. One of the great things about modern day Minifigures is they are very expressive,...
