Marvel’s Captain America & Wolverine Figures Review

A couple of years ago, the LEGO Group reintroduced the concept of buildable ‘action’ figures. These have previously been inspired by Star Wars, Marvel and DC Comics characters. The latest characters are once again from the world of Marvel, with two brand-new characters being added to the range on June 1st.

Buildable LEGO® figures were all the rage a few years ago, the concept formed the basis of the Bionicle sets and has been used to create characters from Star Wars, DC Comics and Marvel. The concept was resurrected in 2022 with a number of characters from the Spider-Man universe and MCU. The latest character to be transformed into a buildable figure is Ant-Man. It’s become the norm for MCU movies to inspire various LEGO sets, but...

10790: Team Spidey At Green Goblin’s Lighthouse Review

After taking a look at the intriguing-looking Team Spidey’s Mobile Headquarters set, today I’ll be taking a look at the Green Goblin Lighthouse set. This is also part of the 4+ range, which is aimed at younger builders and offers easier-to-build sets, plus unique elements and minifigures.

The LEGO® product range caters for a wide age range and sitting between DUPLO and standard LEGO sets is the 4+ range. Once known as LEGO Juniors, 4+ sets now reside in various themes offering simple-to-build models aimed at younger builders.

76251: Star-Lord’s Helmet Set Review

Before 2014, the Guardians of the Galaxy was a rather obscure Marvel comic series.

As well as heading on their own adventures, the Guardians played a key role in the Infinity Saga and will soon return in the final adventure as a team. Ahead of Volume 3 heading to cinemas in May, Star-Lord’s...

One of the most famous vehicles from the Marvel universe is the Quinjet. It’s featured prominently in the MCU, appearing in the Avengers films and many of the other connected adventures.

76245: Ghost Rider Mech & Bike Set Review

A character who finds his flesh consumed by hellfire, causing his head to become a flaming skull doesn’t seem like the most kid-friendly inspiration for a LEGO set. Yet the character has previously appeared in two past LEGO sets. As Johnny Blaze in 2016 and then as Robbie Reyes in a 2021 set. Now Blaze is back in an upcoming 2023 LEGO Marvel set. The basis of the character has remained pretty much the same across all three sets,...
