10358: Transformers Soundwave Set Review
In 2022, LEGO® history was made when bitter rivals joined forces. No, the Autobots and Decepticons hadn’t agreed on a power-sharing agreement, but the LEGO Group had partnered with Hasbro for the first LEGO Transformers set. As an 80s kid, being able to build a transforming LEGO version of the Autobot leader, Optimus Prime, was a delight. That delight continued with last year’s Bumblebee set. But as the Autobot forces amass, the...
75433: Jango Fett’s Starship Set Review
Earlier this year, Jango Fett’s Firespray-class Starship was the subject of an Ultimate Collector Series set. This offered a highly detailed take on the ship used by both Jango and his future bounty-hunting son, Jango. Now the iconic ship has been recreated as a smaller, cheaper, play-scale set, complete with minifigures of Jango and Boba Fett, plus Kaminoan Prime Minister, Lama Su. How does this smaller version of Jango’s Ship fare...
75432: V-19 Torrent Starfighter Set Review
The V-19 Torrent is a Clone Wars era Starfighter first featured in the 2008 feature-length Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated film. The same year saw the first, and until now, only LEGO® take on the ship released. It’s one of only a handful of ships to debut in animated form and not directly link to the design of any of the original trilogy Star Wars ships. Continuing the look at the upcoming wave of LEGO Star Wars sets,...
75431: 327th Star Corps Clone Troopers Battle Pack Review
Battle Packs are popular aspects of the LEGO® Star Wars theme. They were originally introduced as a way to sell minifigures in bulk in order to build armies. The concept has evolved a little over the years, and smaller, cheaper packs have slowly seen the price creep up and the number of characters they contain increase. They remain a good, but seemingly not a very cost-effective way to source multiples of characters. The subject of...
75434: K-2SO Security Droid Set Review
We first met the reprogrammed Imperial Security Droid, K-2SO, in the Star Wars prequel, Rogue One. The sarcastic KX Droid instantly becomes a fan favourite thanks to its one-liners and pure disregard for those around it. The character returned in the second series of Andor, and similar Droids have appeared in other Star Wars stories, most notably EA’s Star Wars Jedi games. KX series Droid look quite cool, making them the perfect muse...
75430: Wicket The Ewok Set Review
Say what you like about the Ewoks, but they helped topple the Empire, used the discarded helmets of their foe as drums and nearly straight up cooked and ate Luke and Han if not for the god-like allure of C-3PO. Plus, before George Lucas’ tinkering, they sang a catchy tune at the end of Return of the Jedi. Now the furry fiends have inspired the latest buildable Star Wars character. In particular, Wicket, the inquisitive Ewok we first...
76316: Fantastic Four vs. Galactus Set Review
July 4th seems like a fitting day to take a look at the recently released LEGO® Marvel set inspired by the upcoming Phase 6 opener, The Fantastic Four: First Steps. The introduction of Marvel’s first family has long been anticipated since Disney regained the rights following the purchase of 20th Century Studios. Not only does the film begin a new phase of the MCU, but it also ushers in an important new era for Marvel Studios’...
