43202: Disney’s Encanto The Madrigal House Set Review
Long before I got lost in a galaxy far, far or enjoyed the interconnected adventures of the MCU, I was obsessed with Disney. The films, the Saturday morning cartoons and of course the music. When I was younger I was the perfect age to witness the golden years of Disney Animation from Lion King to Aladdin. I loved everything about Disney. As I’ve become older my focus on the Magic Kingdom dulled but the magic is still there....
75343: Dark Trooper Helmet Set Review
As well as offering the first open-faced helmet in the LEGO® Star Wars Helmet Collection, the latest wave of sets also tackles its first droid. The Dark Troopers were introduced during the second season of The Mandalorian. But they were born in Star Wars Legends, the catchall name for past Star Wars stories no longer considered part of the canon storyline. In Legends, they were introduced in the video game Dark Forces, where the Dark...
75328: The Mandalorian Helmet Set Review
From the moment the Mandalorian stepped onto the screen it was inevitable his helmet would one day join the LEGO® Star Wars Helmet Collection. The stoic bounty hunter is famed for keeping his face mostly covered as is the way for the Mandalorians.

75327: Luke Skywalker Red Five Helmet Set Review
The LEGO® Star Wars Helmet Collection has already transformed a number of iconic ‘lids’ into displayable sets. However, they have largely focused on the scum and villainy of a galaxy far, far away. But the latest wave of helmets spread beyond the Dark Side transforming an X-wing helmet, The Mandalorian’s helmet and the imposing head of a Dark Trooper into sets. The first of these new sets I’ll be taking a...
31322: LEGO Ideas The Globe Set Review
The LEGO® Ideas theme reaches an important milestone as it gets ready to welcome its 40th set. Across the past 39 sets, LEGO Ideas has gone from a series of predictable sets, limited by pricing and piece count to wildcard which could literally turn any idea into the next must-have LEGO set. This has certainly been the case with such sets as The Maze, Ship in a Bottle and the Typewriter. But the set I’m taking a closer look at...
60326: LEGO City Picnic In The Park Set Review
LEGO® City is not all about rampant crime and arson, each year the evergreen theme does throw up a few surprises. It seems the LEGO City Design Team have hit upon a killer app so to speak – animals. After the wildlife-themed sets from last Summer, the latest sets introduce Squirrels and kittens. With one particular set, Picnic in the Park, being the perfect mix of price and new pieces. Oddly this little set is hard to come by in...
