10309: LEGO Botanical Collection Succulents 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.

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.
