72038: Mario Kart – Wario & King Boo Set Review
Earlier this year, the LEGO® Super Mario theme expanded to include sets inspired by Nintendo’s long-running racer, Mario Kart. These still feature Action Tags and the ability to be integrated alongside other LEGO Mario sets, but focus on karts rather than sections of scenery. Several karts and bikes from Mario Kart, along with their drivers, have already been transformed into sets, but the set I’m taking a look at in this review...

Toads have been a part of the Mario universe since the Super Mario Bros. game, where they helpfully informed Mario that his search for the Princess would need to continue onto the next castle. As well as being the collective name for the mushroom-like folk, Toad, as a character, has also appeared in other titles such as Mario Kart, Smash Bros. and Mario Tennis. An adventurous Toad, called Captain Toad, appeared in unique minigames in...
75413: Republic Juggernaut Set Review
If you thought the upcoming Battle Pack was controversial, it appears to have nothing on this new LEGO® Star Wars set. The set in question is the latest take on the Juggernaut Turbo Tank. This large, multi-wheeled ground assault vehicle first appeared in Revenge of the Sith. But it was conceived for the Battle of Hoth scene in Empire Strikes Back, before being replaced by the much cooler-looking AT-ATs. There have been several LEGO...
