71736: Boulder Blaster LEGO NINJAGO Set Review
Over the last few years, a series of sets from the LEGO® NINJAGO range has been celebrating the history theme. The Legacy sub-theme has seen past sets reimagined with updated designs and Minifigures. This year the Legacy sets are also marking the 10th Anniversary of NINJAGO, with a series of collectable Golden Legacy Ninja Minifigures, spread across various sets. One of those sets is the Boulder Blaster. Originally released back in...
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.

Now just over a year on I own six sets from the newly dubbed...
LEGO We Just Click Book Review
Chronicle Books have been releasing a number of products featuring LEGO® bricks and Minifigures throughout 2020 and their first offering for the new year is released tomorrow. LEGO We Just Click is a fun little book, which when I worked in a book store, would be classed a humour book. But it’s actually best suited for the next major seasonal event. The book would make a great Valentine’s Day gift for that LEGO loving loved...
10281: LEGO Botanical Collection Bonsai Tree Review
Last year the LEGO® Creator Expert branding was retired in favour of a uniform design of black boxes and sub-brand collections. This change also introduced the first 18+ sets, which were clearly aimed at the adult builder community. But this change has had a far greater impact but vastly expanding the scope at what a LEGO set can be. They no longer had to cater for an expanded age range, they don’t have to include play features...
43186: Frozen’s Bruni The Salamander Set Review
Since its release back in 2013, Disney’s Frozen has become a cultural phenomenon. The original movie, along with its various shorts and sequel has been the inspiration for a number of LEGO® products. Last year those sets expanded beyond playsets to include buildable characters, with the first being Summer-loving snowman, Olaf. Now another character from Frozen II has been transformed into a cute brick-built creature. We first...
