LEGO City Summer Set Animals Showcase
Minifigures are great, but a LEGO® animal is truly a magnificent treat to find in a new LEGO set. As the LEGO City have been more varied and more exciting, there’s been an influx of new animal figures. Following the introduction of farm animals and African wildlife last year, this Summer, the new LEGO City sets will introduce several new animals. The latest lineup has an aquatic theme and along with some all-new LEGO critters...
60376: Arctic Explorer Snowmobile Set Review
Starting today, I’ll be taking a look at the complete wave of LEGO® City sets being released on June 1st in most regions. To kick things off, I’ve chosen the smallest of the new sets, but one which features two brand new animal figures. The LEGO City theme has had a bit of a resurgence in the last couple of years. This began with the introduction of named characters from the LEGO City Adventures TV show and although...
43229: Ariel’s Treasure Chest Set Review
Next week will see the cinema release of the latest live-action remake of a Disney Classic. The Little Mermaid is a much-loved Disney story which is inspired by the classic Danish fairytale written by Hans Christian Andersen. One of the key elements of the tale is Ariel’s obsession with the world beyond the sea. So she collects various whozits, whatzits and gizmos. Where best is it to keep all those things than in a treasure...
43218: Anna & Elsa’s Magical Carousel Set Review
Although much of the focus of the LEGO® Disney theme is fuelled by Disney’s 100th Anniversary, there are still a couple of sets simply inspired by Disney and not tied to the company’s milestone. One such set is Anna and Elsa’s Magical Carousel, which is inspired by the much-loved Frozen franchise. As the Summer Set reviews continue it’s off to Arendelle for a look at this fun little LEGO Disney’s Frozen...
LEGO 2K Drive Hands-on Game Review
Considering the vast amount of LEGO® vehicles which have appeared in various sets, this hasn’t translated over into popular LEGO Games line-up to the same degree. Back in the late ’90s, we had the much-loved LEGO Racers and more recently, LEGO Speed Champions appeared in a LEGO-themed expansion to Forza Horizon 4. But that balance is about to change as the LEGO Group partner with a new development studio for the LEGO Games...
76259: Batman Construction Figure Review
The concept of buildable figures was reintroduced last year and up until now has transformed various Marvel heroes into buildable action figures dubbed Construction Figures. With the upcoming Flash movie set to bring Michael Keaton’s Batman back, it’s finally seen the Dark Knight’s return to the world of LEGO. Batman becomes the first DC-themed buildable figure of the new range and ahead of the set’s release...
Black Widow & Captain America Motorcycles Review
Despite the last Avengers film hitting cinemas back in 2019, the films which form part of the Infinity Saga are still inspiring LEGO® Marvel sets today. The latest is loosely based on moments from Age of Ultron, where both Captain America and Black Widow use motorcycles to fight the good fight and do general avenging. Admittedly, this feels like a slightly random set, as it’s not being released alongside a larger wave of sets....
