76256: Ant-Man Construction Figure Set Review
Buildable LEGO® figures were all the rage a few years ago, the concept formed the basis of the Bionicle sets and has been used to create characters from Star Wars, DC Comics and Marvel. The concept was resurrected in 2022 with a number of characters from the Spider-Man universe and MCU. The latest character to be transformed into a buildable figure is Ant-Man. It’s become the norm for MCU movies to inspire various LEGO sets, but...
10790: Team Spidey At Green Goblin’s Lighthouse Review
After taking a look at the intriguing-looking Team Spidey’s Mobile Headquarters set, today I’ll be taking a look at the Green Goblin Lighthouse set. This is also part of the 4+ range, which is aimed at younger builders and offers easier-to-build sets, plus unique elements and minifigures. The overall theme takes its inspiration from the animated Spider-Man Disney Channel/Disney+ show which puts iconic Marvel characters in...
10791: Team Spidey’s Mobile Headquarters Review
The LEGO® product range caters for a wide age range and sitting between DUPLO and standard LEGO sets is the 4+ range. Once known as LEGO Juniors, 4+ sets now reside in various themes offering simple-to-build models aimed at younger builders. But don’t be fooled by the suggested age, what these sets lack in complex building techniques they more than makeup for with unique elements, printed pieces and fun minifigures. One such set...
76251: Star-Lord’s Helmet Set Review
Before 2014, the Guardians of the Galaxy was a rather obscure Marvel comic series. Thanks to the team’s introduction in Phase Two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the bunch of rag-tag criminals became Marvel icons. As well as heading on their own adventures, the Guardians played a key role in the Infinity Saga and will soon return in the final adventure as a team. Ahead of Volume 3 heading to cinemas in May, Star-Lord’s...
76248: The Avengers Quinjet Set Review
One of the most famous vehicles from the Marvel universe is the Quinjet. It’s featured prominently in the MCU, appearing in the Avengers films and many of the other connected adventures. It’s even appeared in TV spin-offs, animated adventures and is a focal point at Disney Park’s Avengers Campus. So it’s no surprise that the Quinjet has also inspired a few LEGO® sets. The first was released back in 2012 when...
76245: Ghost Rider Mech & Bike Set Review
A character who finds his flesh consumed by hellfire, causing his head to become a flaming skull doesn’t seem like the most kid-friendly inspiration for a LEGO set. Yet the character has previously appeared in two past LEGO sets. As Johnny Blaze in 2016 and then as Robbie Reyes in a 2021 set. Now Blaze is back in an upcoming 2023 LEGO Marvel set. The basis of the character has remained pretty much the same across all three sets,...
76247: The Hulkbuster: The Battle of Wakanda Review
Just like LEGO® City’s yearly selection of fire engines and police cars, the LEGO Marvel theme also likes to regularly revisit similar moments or characters. Iron Man is obviously a fan favourite and his Hulkbuster armour has been the subject of a number of LEGO sets. With the LEGO Marvel range continuing to seek inspiration from the Infinity Saga, one of the upcoming new 2023 sets heads back to Avengers Infinity War and the...
