31212: The Milky Way Galaxy Set Review
For no particular reason, this year has become the Year of LEGO® Space. Not a celebration of the much-loved Classic Space sets, but a general admiration for space-based builds. The celebration of space has permeated across several LEGO themes and the latest to join the line-up is LEGO Art. This unique theme began life as a simple piece of wall art created from 1×1 studs or tiles but has evolved to create elaborate images using a...
43248: Inside Out 2 Mood Cube Set Review
I don’t know if it’s just me but when I think of Disney sets, those based on Pixar films aren’t the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, there are a surprising amount of LEGO® sets inspired by Pixar’s characters. The latest is based on Pixar’s upcoming sequel, Inside Out 2. The original film was released in 2015 and followed the story of Riley, who moved to a new city and had to deal with all her new...
75582: Brick-Built Gru And Minions Set Review
Along with the three LEGO® playsets inspired by Illumination’s Despicable Me 4, the wave is rounded out with a brick-built character display featuring Gru and a group of his Minions. Now brick-built characters seemingly fall into two categories – amazing recreations or awful. Gru’s LEGO replication hasn’t fared too well so can his latest LEGO appearance change that? Here’s a closer look at the newly...
71046: LEGO Minifigures Space Series Review
This year is officially celebrating all things LEGO® Space. Across several different LEGO themes, space has featured heavily and that includes the upcoming new series of LEGO Minifigures. Before I go on and there are the usual comments of ‘this isn’t LEGO Space’, Classic Space and general Space-themed sets are two different things. These minifigures and other sets bearing the 2024 Space branding are not trying to...
77580: Minions And Banana Car Set Review
As the LEGO® Despicable Me 4 sets are officially on sale now, this review should be perfectly safe to publish without Universal’s snipers taking me out. LEGO bricks and Minions have crossed paths before, unfortunately, the original sets based on Illumation’s animated Minion universe arrived around the same time as COVID-19. This meant the sets were released over a year before the film they were based on was released....
75382: TIE Interceptor UCS Set Review
LEGO® Star Wars has been an important part of the LEGO Group’s history. The introduction of the theme, 25 years ago, is often reported to have had a hand in saving the fortunes of the LEGO Group. This partnership is also the touchpaper for the LEGO Games thanks to LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game and many of the licensed sets available today. LEGO Star Wars is also a big reason why there’s been a rise in adults showing an...
40686: Trade Federation Droid Carrier GWP Review
Of all the LEGO® Star Wars minifigures, there is none more infamous than the Battle Droid. The ‘clankers’ have remained largely unchanged since they were introduced 25 years ago. It also wouldn’t be Christmas without a Battle Droid featuring in the annual LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar. Now fans of the Battle Droid can bolster their collection with this year’s LEGO Star Wars May the 4th GWP set, the Trade...
