40728: Brite Bomber BrickHeadz GWP Review
Along with the upcoming LEGO® Fortnite sets, October 1st will also see the release of a Fortnite-themed BrickHeadz set. Unlike other LEGO BrickHeadz characters, the Brite Bomber set will be a ‘gift with purchase’ item, available starting October 1st. Brite Bomber was introduced during Fortnite’s Season 2 in 2017. She has since been featured in variant forms and was used as a prominent character for the launch of LEGO...
10339: Santa’s Post Office Set Review
Christmas comes but once a year and with it comes the annual LEGO® tradition of a new addition to the Winter Village Collection. Each Christmas the festive brick-built village grows a little larger thanks to an Icons set. This year’s offering is Santa’s Post Office. It nicely links with previous releases from the collection and harks back to even early Winter Village sets. The set is inspired by Santa’s postal...
77000: Shadow The Hedgehog Set Review
The Sonic universe has added many weird and wonderful characters to its roster since the Blue Blur debuted in the ’90s. But one has oddly gained cult status since first appearing in Sonic Adventure 2 on the SEGA Dreamcast. Shadow the Hedgehog was generically engineered to be the Ultimate Life Form. The character would go on to star in his own game, which is best described as ‘Sonic with a gun’. This year has been...
LEGO Marvel Character Encyclopedia Book Review
Until October last year, DK Books hadn’t published a single LEGO® title inspired by the popular LEGO Marvel theme. The first LEGO Marvel book took a look at the many playsets, characters and buildable objects from across the Marvel Super Heroes theme. This new book just focuses on the minifigures from the LEGO Marvel universe. As with many of DK Books’ LEGO titles, it also features an exclusive LEGO minifigure character....
76328: Batman Classic Series Batmobile Set Review
What better day to review the LEGO® Batman Classic TV Series Batmobile than Batman Day, which also marks the Dark Knight’s 85 Anniversary? Before Batman became a brooding nocturnal vigilante he was the far camper caped crusader. Much of the world was introduced to Batman through the classic 1960s TV show. It only aired for two years but managed to cram 120 episodes into that short run. The show was a colourful take on the world...
21352: Magic Of Disney LEGO Ideas Set Review
LEGO® Ideas is no stranger to licensed sets but it’s Disney which has offered the most inspiration for fan builders. In 2023, Disney celebrated its 100th anniversary and part of the celebrations saw LEGO Ideas team up with US retailer, Target, to find a set inspired by the magical world of Disney. Fans choose the aptly named Magic of Disney set by 2A2A aka Anna Chen. The fan-created design featured several Disney characters...
75397: Jabba’s Sail Barge Minifigures Review
I’m still working on my review of the LEGO® Star Wars UCS Jabba’s Sail Barge set but until then, here’s a closer look at the minifigures featured in the upcoming set. Ultimate Collector Series sets aren’t often known for their mass of minifigures. Occasionally they feature an exclusive character but this UCS set has 11 minifigures. The Minifigures featured in this set are inspired by the scenes in Return of the...
75681: Glinda, Elphaba & Nessarose at Shiz University Review
If you’ve watched the trailers for Wicked, you’ll have seen the moment which has inspired the smallest of the upcoming Wicked sets. As a prequel to The Wizard of Oz, Wicked tells the story of witches Glinda and Elphaba, who I assume are attending a witch university, where they first meet. Good Witch Glinda arrives at Shiz University in an ornate boat, filled with her essential possessions. This set recreates the moment the...
