Review: LEGO 10311 Orchid (2022 Botanical Collection)

April 15, 2022 By Jay 4 Comments

LEGO’s Botanical Collection has been one of LEGO’s fastest growing Creator Expert subthemes, and for 2022, LEGO have introduced 2 new sets –  10311 Orchid and 10309 Succulents. They will both be available from LEGO.com on 1 May 2022 but can be pre-ordered now direct from LEGO or through Amazon.com, and I think they’ll be extremely popular as…

Review: LEGO 10300 Back to the Future Time Machine

March 22, 2022 By Jay 13 Comments

It’s only April but the 10300 Back to the Future Time Machine Delorean is already high on my list of favourite sets for 2022. It’s not a perfect set, it’s actually flawed, but the Back to the Future movies were a seminal part of my childhood cinematic experience, so getting a Creator Expert-scale LEGO Delorean…

Review: LEGO 71395 Super Mario 64 Question Mark Block

March 20, 2022 By Jay 6 Comments

The LEGO Super Mario theme is quite divisive amongst LEGO and Nintendo fans, partly because it’s not a typical minifigure-centric theme, and also partly because the phygital play (a portmanteau for physical and digital) isn’t really geared towards adults or older LEGO fans, who contribute most to the online discourse, on blogs, social media or…

Here's the Wolf Costume minifigure from @lego mini Here's the Wolf Costume minifigure from @lego minifigures Series 23!

It functions both as a Wolf Costume minifigure AND the Big Bad Wolf, out to get the 3 Little Pigs!

His alternate face is great, with a "I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down!" expression! 

A request from @9brickcity!

This brave pint-sized knight comes with a hobby horse, pearl gold sword and in a nod to 375 the "Yellow Castle" features the Crown crests property noted on her armour (wow!), kite shield and also, on her torso!

With a resurgence of interest in all things LEGO Castles, she's sure to be one of the most sought-after minifigures from Series 23 by Medieval army builders.

One of the rarest LEGO Architecture sets - 21021 M One of the rarest LEGO Architecture sets - 21021 Marina Bay Sands! 🇸🇬 

Singapore celebrates their National Day on 9 August, and to mark the occasion, I've dug into my vault to showcase the Marina Bay Sands, one of Singapore's contemporary architectural landmarks! 

Released in 2014, it's notorious for being one of the most sought-after Architecture sets, because only 10,000 copies were made.

To make matters worse, they sold exclusively in Asia in countries like Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, and the Marina Bay Sands gift shop!

Thankfully, LEGO released a newer 21057 Singapore Skyline earlier this year which also includes the Marina Bay Sands, but this is a relic from an era where LEGO had regional exclusives in their portfolio.

Happy National Day, Singapore!
