What’s Next For Future LEGO Mandalorian Sets
For over 20 years LEGO® fans have been able to build their own Star Wars adventures. In recent years, both the Star Wars films and the various LEGO Star Wars sets have been met with little enthusiasm. Then Disney+ came along and with it came the first-ever live-action Star Wars series. The Mandalorian became an instant success and even managed to keep a few surprises. Since The Mandalorian premiered on Disney+ in the US late last...

If you’re reading this, you are most likely a LEGO® fan. But your fandom can now extend beyond the bricks thanks to an increasing number of partnerships with other iconic brands.

LEGO Minifigures Continues To Expand Inclusivity
When the LEGO® Minifigure was first conceived it was decided to give them a yellow skin tone so that children of any race or background could pour their creative imagination into these little plastic vessels. Although over the years more natural skin colours have been introduced to reflect mostly famous TV and movie characters, yellow is still used for most LEGO characters.

With 35 years of games to take inspiration from, the sets have done a great job of capturing iconic characters and enemies from many of them. The main man is, of course, Mario, who, in LEGO form, is a specifically created digital figure. His cubic appearance has lead the style for the rest of the buildable friends and foe,...
Combining The LEGO Iron Man Hall Of Armoury Sets
My review of the upcoming LEGO® Marvel Iron Man Armoury proves to be popular so I decided to brave various spiders, cobwebs and possibly ghosts, to dig out the Hall of Armour set from last year, from deep with the brick-filled attic. As I mentioned in my review this new set is the perfect companion for the larger Hall of Armour set. Both are inspired by Tony Stark’s workshop as seen in the MCU Iron Man movies. Although...
What’s next for Nintendo and LEGO?
No matter what your gaming affiliation is, Nintendo will have influenced you in some way. As a long time gamer myself, Nintendo has played a big part in my gaming adventures. I fondly remember stepping out onto Hyrule Field for the first time in Ocarina of Time, marvelling at the Rumble Pak which came with Lylat Wars (Star Fox 64 for some), getting the first import copy of a little-known game called Pokémon in Leicester, spending...
All The Adult-focused LEGO Set So Far
“You know the rules, this isn’t a toy, no actually it’s a highly sophisticated inter-locking brick system” Yes, we all know that LEGO® is a toy, but there is a vast and ever-increasing adult community who adore those little plastic bricks, despite what the box says; after all “that’s a suggestion. They have to put that on there” The LEGO Group realised many years ago that adults loved LEGO...
