LEGO 2021 Polybags Review
One of the yearly LEGO® highlights has to be polybags. These little tasters of various themes crop up in all sorts of places, from promotions run by in LEGO stores or online, at LEGOLAND stores, supermarkets and even magazines. Admittedly they aren’t always the easier things to track down but many of the sets being released this year, in whichever form, have already been revealed. I’ve found a few on eBay and thought...
40469: LEGO Creator Tuk Tuk Set Review
With the LEGO® Creator Expert branding replaced with 18+ sub-collections, the standard Creator theme has also seen a small change. Although there are still Creator 3-in-1 sets, the Creator brand is being used for more generic sets. Similar to the mini LEGO London Bus, there are a couple of new sets based on regional transportation. One of which is the Tuk Tuk, these iconic modes of transport whizz around the streets of India, where...
LEGO Modulars Assembling A New Obsession
Just before Christmas 2019, before the dark times, I was offered the LEGO® Creator Expert Modular Bookshop to review. This would be my first experience building a set from the much-loved annual series of modular buildings. As I explained back then, the only reason I have never partaken in a Modular Building was lack of space and I knew once I had one I’d want more. Now just over a year on I own six sets from the newly dubbed...
10276: The Colosseum LEGO Set Review
They say Rome wasn’t built in a day and if there was ever a LEGO® set to embody this notion then it’s this one. The Colosseum has stood in the centre of Rome for almost 2000 years. In its heyday, this impressive Roman amphitheatre could hold up to 80,000 and now it has the honour of being the largest LEGO set yet. If you thought the latest version of the UCS Millennium Falcon was big, you ain’t seen nothing. The LEGO...
10273: LEGO Haunted House Set Review
Earlier this year, a spooky new addition to the newly dubbed LEGO® Fairground Collection was released. The Haunted House also became the first set to fall under the 18+ range of sets. But this isn’t the first time LEGO bricks have built a spooky dwelling. Still much sought after, the Haunted House from the Monster Fighters theme is considered the ghoulish holy grail of sets. Now almost 10 years on, a new contender has entered...
LEGO 2020 Polybag Sets Review
Who doesn’t enjoy a polybag? These small sets give you a taster of what to expect from various LEGO® themes. This week Lidl UK started selling a selection of LEGO them. But some of these polybag sets are also available elsewhere. The NINJAGO set can also be found in Asda and one of the LEGO City sets and the Friends set is being given away in LEGO Stores. The cheapest way to get them all is at Lidl, but however to go about...
LEGO Modulars Once You Pop You Just Stop
Just before Christmas, I got to build my first ever LEGO® Creator Expert Modular set, as I reviewed this year’s latest addition to the popular line, the Bookshop. Before I was offered the Bookshop to review, I had planned a feature in which I built my first modular and I had chosen the Diner. The original plan was to do this ahead of the festive period but due to high season, the set only arrived a couple of weeks ago....
