10311: Botanical Collection Orchid Set Review
LEGO® elements are great for building cars, spaceships and buildings. The wild and natural shapes created by Mother Nature aren’t necessarily the first thing you think of when you see LEGO bricks. But thanks to the Botanical Collection, plants can definitely be added to that list. The first few sets certainly affirmed that but this particular set really enforces it. The Orchid is a widespread and diverse family of beautifully...
LEGO Star Wars Recent Reviews Round-up
LEGO® Star Wars is a theme that tempted quite a few AFOLs from the ‘Dark Age’ so it’s not surprising that some of the recent sets have been aimed at adult builders. This is certainly the case with the upcoming LEGO Star Wars Diorama Collection. The new range of sets features three iconic moments from the original trilogy, each transformed into unique displayable sets. I’ve had the pleasure of taking a look at...
76956: Jurassic Park T. rex Breakout Diorama Review
Long before the first LEGO® Jurassic World set was released, fans have been keen to see iconic moments from Jurassic Park transformed into LEGO sets. Those famous green, yellow and red Ford Explorers have been a keen source for MOC builders and LEGO Ideas projects. Apart from the Raptor Attack set for a couple of years ago and the huge Jurassic Park T. rex, the original films haven’t had much LEGO love. But that’s about to...

75329: Death Star Trench Run Diorama Review
The Star Wars films are filled with iconic moments, particularly the first one. So it’s not surprising that two of the new LEGO® Star Wars Diorama Collection sets are inspired by A New Hope. This set is slightly different to others as it is microscale and doesn’t include any minifigures. But what it lacks in minifigures, it more than makes up for in detail. So does this diorama deserve a place in your Star Wars collection?...

10300: LEGO Back To The Future Time Machine Review
One of the most iconic movie vehicles of all time has to fall the DeLorean. This quintessential embodiment of 80s design is synonymous with travelling through time, be it to the wild west or a future version of Hill Valley. The Time Machine is the heart of the Back to the Future trilogy. Now it’s also the inspiration for a large-scale LEGO® version. It’s a set fans have been keen to see ever since we were treated to a much...
