40615: Tusken Raider LEGO BrickHeadz Review
Considering how many characters there are in the Star Wars universe only a handful of them have become LEGO BrickHeadz characters. Although they aren’t released regularly, Star Wars BrickHeadz make up a pretty decent whack of the range. Most of the recent releases have focused on character double packs but the set I’m taking a look at today focused on a single character – The Tusken Raider. One of the first LEGO Star...
71419: Peach’s Garden Balloon Ride Set Review
After being introduced in 2020, LEGO® Super Mario is a much-established theme. With well over 100 expansion sets, character packs and large-scale sets, the various Nintendo-inspired builds have a running theme – Action Tags. With each new wave of sets, the Action Tags have been used in fun new ways. The introduction of the Princess Peach interactive figure, it’s allowed the LEGO Super Mario Design Team to seek inspiration...
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,...
76247: The Hulkbuster: The Battle of Wakanda Review
Just like LEGO® City’s yearly selection of fire engines and police cars, the LEGO Marvel theme also likes to regularly revisit similar moments or characters. Iron Man is obviously a fan favourite and his Hulkbuster armour has been the subject of a number of LEGO sets. With the LEGO Marvel range continuing to seek inspiration from the Infinity Saga, one of the upcoming new 2023 sets heads back to Avengers Infinity War and the...
76244: Miles Morales Vs. Morbius Set Review
With the latest trailer for Across the Spider-verse being released this week, two of Sony’s most recent Marvel efforts collide in the first of my 2023 set reviews. LEGO® Marvel continues to impress with a steady stream of new sets continuing to be released. Their inspiration comes from many different places and this particular set is inspired by the wider Marvel universe. Although the lead character is Spider-Man stand-in Miles...

To kick off those celebrations, three new LEGO® Star Wars sets have been revealed today. The popular Battle Packs continue with a 501st Clone Trooper pack. It’s joined by another Microfighter set inspired by Boba Fett’s Ship and the largest of the new sets is...
LEGO CON To Skip 2023
After two events of varying success, LEGO® CON is gone, and well at least for 2023. The LEGO Group has revealed the live-streamed event will not return in 2023. Although not cancelled as such, LEGO CON in its current form will certainly not be taking place next year. It’s possible a similar showcase will take place in 2023 and beyond but nothing has been revealed or announced. Despite the first event being overhyped and...
