LEGO Wicked For Good Set Reviews Round-up
There are only a few days until Wicked For Good arrives in cinemas, and earlier this year, several LEGO® sets inspired by the upcoming film were released. Over the last few weeks, I’ve been taking a look at these new sets and here’s a handy round-up of those set reviews. They include mini-doll-filled playsets and two display-focused sets, which introduce minifigures of the Wicked cast of characters. The LEGO Wicked For...
75690: Glinda & Elphaba Visit Munchkinland Set Review
The world of Oz was first brought to life in the classic 1939 film, The Wizard of Oz. This was filled with iconic characters and locations. As Wicked is a prequel to the original film, the upcoming sequel is edging closer to the events of the classic film. Munchkinland is one of the first places the 1939 film visits and is revisited in Wicked. As the second Wicked film heads to cinemas later this month, it’s time to take a look...
75685: Emerald City Wall Art Set Review
Last year, the LEGO Group partnered with Universal Pictures for a range of sets inspired by Wicked, the prequel to The Wizard of Oz. The four sets released ahead of the film were interesting and brought the world of Oz to life nicely, but the use of mini-dolls wasn’t loved by all. For the second wave of sets, released last month, two 18+ sets were included, both featuring minifigure versions of the film’s characters. One...
75688: Glinda’s Wedding Day Set Review
As they are released way ahead of the films which inspire them, LEGO® sets have a long history of revealing story points from major films. That’s certainly the case with this set. As its name suggests, the set appears to be inspired by Glinda’s wedding day. This appears to be a deviation from the musical. But to be fair, the set it’s also alluded to in the upcoming film’s trailer. Continuing the reviews of the...
75687: Elphaba’s Retreat Set Review
The newly released LEGO® Wicked playsets expand upon what the first wave of sets offered, but this time they are inspired by the second film, Wicked: For Good. With the rift between Glinda and Elphaba widening, the soon-to-be Wicked Witch of the West seeks refuge in a hidden woodland retreat. Here, the emerald-skinned student is free to harness her powers and be herself without judgment from others. Here’s a closer look at the...
75689: Emerald City & Kiamo Ko Castle Set Review
The Wizard of Oz and its various companion pieces feature many iconic locations. But since the release of Wicked, those locations have been fleshed out to become major parts of Glinda and Elphaba’s backstory. This upcoming LEGO® Wicked set features two buildable structures, the colourful Emerald City and the dark, foreboding Kiamo Ko Castle. Both are packed with neat details and Easter Eggs related to the upcoming Wicked sequel and...
75691: Glinda & Elphaba Bookends Set Review
Last year, the LEGO Group announced a new partnership with Universal to bring the world of Wicked to life through a series of LEGO® sets. Wicked is a long-running musical prequel to The Wizard of Oz and recounts the unlikely friendship between Glinda and Elphaba. One of the disappointments with the first wave of sets was their focus on mini-dolls. Which is why the upcoming sets, inspired by the second Wicked film, have caused a ripple...
