10282: LEGO Adidas Originals Superstar Set Review
Last year the LEGO Group partnered with Adidas to create an extremely hard-to-find trainer as part of the ZX range. Since then the partnership has resulted in a number of clothing and footwear releases. The most recent of which were the LEGO Colours Trainers and the VIDIYO clothing range for kids. So far the partnership has been pretty one-sided, that is until now. The recently revealed LEGO Adidas Originals Superstar set is the...
76191: LEGO Marvel Infinity Gauntlet Review
Before creation itself, there were six singularities. Then the universe exploded into existence, and the remnants of these systems were forged into concentrated ingots… Infinity Stones. These stones, it seems, could only be brandished by beings of extraordinary strength – until now. But a device capable of harnessing the power of the Stones doesn’t require the skills of a dwarven king. Instead, it requires the...
40516: Everyone Is Awesome Set Review
Over the past few weeks, Matthew Ashton, VP of Design at the LEGO Group, has been teasing a new set which he has designed. He’s been sharing images of LEGO® elements on social media and we now know exactly what he’s been up to. That set is the recently revealed Everyone Is Awesome. The set has been created to celebrate Pride Month and those who identify as LGBTQIA+. Before getting to the review, I know this set will have a...

They first appeared on the forest moon of Endor, where they took chase to Leia and Luke on Speeder Bikes. Their penchant for speeders earned them the Bike Scout moniker. After the Imperial Stormtrooper and TIE Pilot, they are one of the original class of troopers making their unique...
75304: Darth Vader Helmet Set Review

The pinnacle of Imperial face coverings has to be that of the high ground hating Sith Lord, Darth Vader. Following on from the introduction of the LEGO® Star Wars Helmet Collection last year, two new additions are being added to the line next month. One of which is Darth Vader’s iconic helmet. Since the first moment Vader...
75306: Imperial Probe Droid LEGO Set Review
For many The Empire Strikes Back is the pinnacle of Star Wars movies. It’s also the first appearance of a menacing Imperial Droid which helped Vader and the Imperial Fleet to locate the hidden Rebel Base on the sixth moon of the Hoth system. As Han and Chewie investigate a recent meteor strike on the snowy plains of Hoth, we come face to face with the Imperial Probe Droid. Now, this tool of the Imperial Forces has been recreated...
10281: LEGO Botanical Collection Bonsai Tree Review
Last year the LEGO® Creator Expert branding was retired in favour of a uniform design of black boxes and sub-brand collections. This change also introduced the first 18+ sets, which were clearly aimed at the adult builder community. But this change has had a far greater impact but vastly expanding the scope at what a LEGO set can be. They no longer had to cater for an expanded age range, they don’t have to include play features...
