BricksFanz Weekly Recap July 27th – August 2nd
If ever there was a need for a weekly recap, then this is certainly the week for it. There’s been plenty going on, from new set reveals and a magnitude of new sets released over the weekend. The LEGO® NES, Grand Piano and Art range expanded the new 18+ range, new Star Wars and Marvel arrived and the full LEGO Super Mario range was released. In all honesty, I think too much was released, especially as many of these sets carry a...

Another week has passed, which means it’s time for another weekly LEGO® recap. The big news this week was the reveal of the LEGO Ideas playable piano set. This interesting new addition to the Ideas line-up is also the first set from that popular theme to join the adult-focused range. Elsewhere I continue to review the LEGO Supr Mario range, which briefly appeared at Argos and John Lewis before being pulled from sale today. They...
BricksFanz Weekly Recap July 13th – 19th
It’s BricksFanz recap time once again and the biggest news from the past week it the reveal of another LEGO® Nintendo set. This one is firmly directed at AFOLs, especially those who like to game. The LEGO NES is a brick-built recreation of the classic Nintendo games console. Not only that it comes with a mini retro TV and can even be played. Talking of Nintendo, I’ve started to make my way through the reviews of the LEGO...
BricksFanz Weekly LEGO Recap July 6th -12th
This week I have been mostly knee-deep in the entire LEGO® Super Mario range. Although the range doesn’t launch until August, they have arrived early at BricksFanz HQ and I have to say I’m impressed so far. You can check out two reviews below and there will be more in the coming weeks. Beyond the Mushroom Kingdom, three new LEGO Monkie Kid sets were revealed and the LEGO Ghostbusters are set to make a surprise return....
BricksFanz Weekly LEGO Recap June 29th – July 5th
It’s been a pretty jam-packed week for LEGO® happenings, with the biggest news being the reveal of a new theme dubbed LEGO Art. This adult-focused line of brick-built pieces of art looks like it could be popular, although pricing and the need for multiple sets to create bigger images certainly hasn’t gone over well. This week has also seen the launch of the new Mickey & Minnie Mouse set and the Crocodile Locomotive, of...
BricksFanz Weekly LEGO Recap June 22nd – 28th
Another week has slipped by and it’s scary times here in Leicester, as there has been a surge in COVID-19 cases, which could result in the first local lockdown. With news being quiet, I’m managed to get a couple of reviews done. These include the LEGO® House Wooden Duck, Xtra Play Tapes and the new LEGOLAND NINJAGO World sets. Plus upcoming sets including the Mickey and Minnie Mouse Buildable Characters and next...

To all those Dads out there, Happy Father’s Day or in my case Happy Father’s Day to my Mum, who has had to play the role of both Mum and Dad. It’s recap time again and there has been some exciting reveals this past week. Two new adult-focused sets were revealed followed by the unveiling of the entire LEGO® Super Mario range and if all that wasn’t enough, some new LEGO Star Wars sets were also announced. So...
BricksFanz Weekly LEGO Recap June 8th – 14th
It’s been a bit of a quiet week in the world of LEGO®, some may say it’s the quiet before the storm! However, there have been a few surprising stories.

It was also the place to find a few older polybags for the first time. The...
