Review: LEGO Polybags (First-Half of 2023)

February 21, 2023 By Jay Ong 10 Comments

I was at the Melbourne Legoland Discovery Centre over the weekend and stumbled upon a whole heap of new first half of 2023 LEGO Polybags on sale. I wasted no time picking most of them up, as I really enjoy polybags as impulse purchases and builds, and with the skyrocketing price of LEGO, I figured…

Here's a look at 43212 Disney Celebration Train, c Here's a look at 43212 Disney Celebration Train, celebrating #Disney100!

It's a 4+ set and features floats and characters from several different eras of Disney, from classic to Pixar to modern animation.

6 minifigures are included, which to most Disney fans are the real highlight of the set.

You get new Mickey and Minnie Mouse variants, Peter Pan and Tinker Bell, Woody and Moana who makes her debut as a minifigure, and expands the total number of minifigure Disney Princesses!

Depending on where you live, the set may or may not be good value, but you do get 5 new-ish and exclusive Disney minifigs, which will be the big draw to fans.

Special thanks to @lego for sending this set for review!

Did you know that Fiona, the @lego Friends florist Did you know that Fiona, the @lego Friends florist is one of the first minidolls depicted with Down Syndrome?

Fiona works at the flower stall on Unity Street from 41732 Friends Downtown Flower and Design Stores 

She is described as being 'good at crafts and decorating, and knows all the flower species by name.' 

It's World Down Syndrome Day today and I think it's remarkable and very important for LEGO to enhance the perspectives of children on neurodiversity, physical disabilities, ethnicity and mental health, as they've done with the LEGO Friends reboot.

Here's my review of one of the most anticipate @LE Here's my review of one of the most anticipate @LEGO Disney sets - 43217 'Up' House ahead of its release on 1 April 2023!

This set is a dream come true for many Pixar fans, and we finally get a cute, compact and great looking Up House. 

It has plenty of references to the movie, and Carl's everlasting love of Ellie, his late-wife which will absolutely delight fans. 

Despite a strong lineup of minifigures (including an awesome Dug mould), the set's incredibly expensive pricetag (US$59.99/AU$89.99) doesn't feel like good value, especially with Kevin nowhere to be found.

Here are some shots of 77013 Escape from the Lost Tomb, which let's you recreate scenes from Raiders of the Lost Ark!

Indy, Sallah, and Marion break into the Well of Souls to retrieve the Ark of the Covenant in LEGO form, and this playset is packed with dynamic play features!

Priced at only US$39.99, this set is incredible value and a great way to get started with LEGO Indiana Jones!
