A Look At LEGO…. LEGO Fans
Today we take A Look at LEGO®.... LEGO Fans, no that isn’t a typo. With the early release of set 70656: garmadon, Garmadon, GARMADON, we noticed one of the minifigures included in the great new set is sporting a funky t-shirt, with a familiar logo upon it. But this isn’t the first time, a long retired LEGO themes have been celebrated via the medium of clothing. One of the first examples of showing some LEGO love occurred...
Click & Snap: NINJAGO Pumpkins
With witching hour fast approaching, the streets will soon to filled with all sorts of ghouls and goblins. One of the best ways to keep them at bay is to coat Brussel sprouts in chocolate, but a more traditional way to keep evil at bay is the humble pumpkin. Carving gruesome designs into pumpkins has a long history and in recent years people have created various designs into their pumpkins. Which brings us nicely on to these epic...
A Look At LEGO…. Spooky Minifigures
Halloween is here so its time to dust off another ghoulish special feature as we take A Look at LEGO…. Spooky Minifigures. Over the years there have been millions of minifigures created from classic LEGO Spacemen to little Hollywood legends. Although a few spooky faces have made an appearance here and there, things got a little spooky in 2010 with the launch of the LEGO Collectible Minifigure range and ever since spooks, spectres and...
A Look At LEGO… Monster Fighters
This week we’ve been troubled by strange noises in the middle of the night, we’ve experienced feelings of dread in our basements and LEGO® brick buckets, and we think we may have seen a spook, spectre or ghost, although it could’ve just been one of those glow-in-the-dark ghost minifigures. So who were we going to call? The LEGO Monster Fighters of course. Not only to rid us of these spooky happenings but to also celebrate them,...
LEGO Ideas: A Taste For Space & Science
With the official unveiling of Women of NASA set, this marks the sixth LEGO Ideas set which has been directly influenced by the science. From under the sea to the deep of space, when it comes to science, it seems to go hand in hand with LEGO. For projects to reach 10,000 supporters they must inspire people to vote and these sort of sets quickly reach their goal thanks to fans from outside of the LEGO community voting and sharing. The...
A Look At LEGO…. Book Famous Minifigures
Back in 2013 publisher DK Books put out a call for a selection of Minifigures they needed to help complete their new book, LEGO Minifigures Year by Year: A Visual History. LEGO fans around the UK and beyond, raided their LEGO collections to help find those few Minifigures DK needed for inclusion in the book. Thankfully my inability to throw or give anything away meant I still had all my LEGO sets from when I was younger and having...
A Look At LEGO…. Joker Sets
With the surprise announcement of The Joker Manor set yesterday we thought it was the perfect time to take a look back at some of the Clown Prince of Crime’s other chuckle-some sets. Wherever Bat’s goes the Joker isn’t far behind and their rivalry took a multi-dimensional twist in The LEGO Batman Movie earlier this year. When The Joker isn’t giving the local playboy millionaire’s mansion a psychedelic...
