November has been a masterclass in LEGO getting you to spend more than ever before

November 19, 2021 By Jay Ong 9 Comments

November and December are typically make or break months for the toy industry, and LEGO of course is no exception. Toys for children (and now adults!) are one of the biggest sellers during the Christmas shopping season, and LEGO’s full year revenue is usually predicated on having a successful second half, where they typically make…

The 6,785-piece LEGO UCS AT-AT (75313) officially revealed, and it is EPIC

November 9, 2021 By Jay Ong 4 Comments

After months of rumours, and an unfortunate leak just days ago, I can now officially reveal one of the most audacious and impressive Star Wars UCS sets ever – 75313 AT-AT. This 6,785-piece stands 62cm (24.5″) tall, 69cm (27″) lengthwise and 24cm (9.5″) wide, and is now the second largest LEGO Star Wars set by…

First look at LEGO 40484 Santa’s Front Yard gift with purchase (GWP)

November 9, 2021 By Jay Ong 6 Comments

Thanks to Brickset, we have our very first look at one of 2021’s LEGO Christmas GWPs (gift with purchase) – 40484 Santa’s Front Yard which went up shortly on the Australian LEGO site, but has now been removed, probably because it went up slightly prematurely. It contains 317 pieces, and will likely be a GWP…

To celebrate the release of @lego Ninjago Dragons To celebrate the release of @lego Ninjago Dragons Rising sets and animated series, here's a look at the exclusive Build-a-Minifigure selection that will be rolling out from 1 June 2023 onwards!

Ninjago fans can look forward to an exclusive Sora and Arin, as well as Core Lloyd, Kai and Nya for a really cost-effective way to get your hands on these minifigs!

There's also a female football player which ties in with Icons of Play.

Special thanks to @hanobrix for sharing these photos!

Here's an official look at the newly announced 762 Here's an official look at the newly announced 76262 Captain America's Shield, coming 1 September 2023! 

It joins the other collection of large Marvel things like Mjolnir, Black Panther Bust, Nano/Infinity Gauntlet and Iron Man helmet.

Unfortunately, the lack of utility with this means that it's mostly a display piece, albeit a very large one.

Looking at the back of the shield, and having gotten an opportunity to see this set a few months ago, it's really not recommended to carry it.

And it also looks like you can't hang it up, so it's meant to just sit in it's stand.

But... It's big, I guess? 🤷‍♂️

Here's my review of 41757 Botanical Garden, hands Here's my review of 41757 Botanical Garden, hands down one of THE best sets of 2023 and a gleaming beacon of just how far the LEGO Friends theme has matured. 

When you see the LEGO Friends Botanical Garden, it quickly becomes apparent that LEGO have something special on their hands with a design that's simply beautiful.

Hit the link in bio to read my full review!

It's truly a mark of a mature theme, that LEGO could debut a tasteful design like this into LEGO Friends, but crafted in such a way that it will also have broad appeal to City builders, or even fans who want a stunning architectural masterpiece to display their minifigures or minidolls in.

With so many amazing designs and sets being produced by Billund, 41757 Botanical Garden deservedly takes it's place as one of the best LEGO sets of 2023 and I can heartily recommend this set to everyone, and I have a gut feeling that this will be one of the best-selling LEGO Friends set of the year.
