LEGO Look Back 2021 – Many Minifigures
This year saw three series of LEGO® Minifigures released as well as two series of LEGO VIDIYO Bandmates including the elusive second series. 2021 also saw the format of the Minifigures series change, switching character counts from the usual 16 down to 12. The years began with a gang of original characters and the 21st series LEGO Minifigures. As has been the case with past Minifigures, Series 21 included plenty of fun new elements...
Click & Snap: Snowflake Plaza 2021
Every year I, like many LEGO® fans, like to celebrate the festivities of Christmas through the magic of LEGO sets. The basis of most displays are the annually released Winter Village sets and as the years have gone on my display has become considerably larger. You can see how it began here and here.

A Look At LEGO… Guardians Of The Galaxy
Beyond the wonderful world of LEGO® building, I’m partial to a cheeky bit of gaming. Since Saturday I’ve been enjoying the adventures of the Guardians of the Galaxy, in their first video game from Square Enix. After their efforts with The Avengers game, I wasn’t too sure if this would be any good but from what I saw in previews it looked fun at the very least. Thankfully, the game is great. So as I’m all...
