76994: Sonic’s Green Hill Zone Loop Challenge Set Review
What do you get when you combine LEGO® City Stuntz with everyone’s favourite blue hedgehog? It’s a pretty safe bet that it will have a passing resemblance to the largest of the upcoming new sets inspired by SEGA’s Sonic the Hedgehog.

76423: Hogwarts Express With Hogsmeade Station Review
The Hogwarts Express is the wizarding world’s equivalent of the X-wing when it comes to LEGO® sets. It appeared in many forms during both eras of the theme.

The new edition of the Hogwarts Express is a little more sensible size-wise and features Hogsmeade Station instead of the usual...
