71475: Mr. Oz’s Space Car Set Review
It’s official, the year 2024 is the Year of LEGO® Space.

By day Mr Oz is a science teacher and by night he becomes a Dream Chaser, who expresses his love of classic LEGO themes with his t-shirt and...
71471: Mateo’s Off-Road Car Set Review
As mentioned in my review of the Narwhal Hot-Air Balloon the first wave of LEGO® DREAMZzz sets didn’t offer any smaller, pocket-money-friendly sets. That’s been rectified with the second collection of sets due to be released on January 1st, 2024. The smallest LEGO DREAMZzz set so far is Mateo’s Off-Road Car, which is inspired by Z-Blob and can be built in one of two different ways. Continuing the 2024 LEGO DREAMZzz...

LEGO Space: 1978-1992 Book Review

Across 200 pages, this new book takes an extremely deep dive...
71430: Penguin Family Snow Adventure Set Review
Another of the new LEGO® Super Mario sets being released at the start of 2024, is the Penguin Family Adventure expansion. Like other sets in the upcoming wave, it’s not based on a particular moment or Mario game. Instead, it takes inspiration from the broader Mario franchise. However, there is a slight connection to the iconic Nintendo 64 Mario adventure. So grab those baby penguins and get ready to propel them off a cliff as I...
71429: Nabbit At Toad’s Shop Expansion Set Review
It’s time to kick off the 2024 set reviews with a look at the new LEGO® Super Mario Expansion sets. As we enter 2024, the LEGO Super Mario theme moves into its 5th year as the latest wave of expansion sets continues to expand the brick-built Mushroom Kingdom.

21344: The Orient Express Train Set Review
There is a large part of the LEGO® community who enjoy brick-built trains. This is why large-scale displayable trains have become more prevalent recently. Over the last few years, the humble train has broken free from the LEGO City theme to capture the magic of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and recreate a staple of Swiss railroads. Now a similar format which was used to recreate Hogwarts Express and the Crocodile Locomotive has...
