The range of bricks and other bits included in the set is really impressive. The bright, bold colours are fab and the inclusion of lots of quite unusual, more technical and highly useful pieces makes this set feel ultra modern and slick. I think the fantastic colours and pieces in this more

It is broken up into the four main stages of the tower. The majority of the joins are via hinges and brackets, but nothing too fancy. The build is a little repetitive with having to do 4x most parts due to the tower’s symmetry. The hinges actually make it a surprisingly strong model. more

I guess if you’re reading this you most likely already know that and probably know way more about the game than me. But essentially it is a game about using different types of bricks to create stuff. Minecraft you can skip to the next section! Then once you are in, you need to find more

Also as far as beavers go this isn’t a particularly great one. One would hope they would have switched the beaver for another deadly creature and called it something else. I just feel a lack of commitment with the name and the lackluster alternate builds. I built the main model, the eagle, more

I must have built and rebuilt these countless times in all kind of shapes and forms. They would post various pictures of the sets they had when they were young, and would reminiscence the good times they had with it. The first floor is a bit repetitive, mainly because it’s a bit barebones more

At this point, huge fans likely already have the set, people who don’t like it haven’t touched it… the people still waiting are likely just like me, on the fence and wondering if it’s worth the money. I like a lot of the callbacks, but often it feels like they are beating over the head more

Some of the ideas submitted were having more town and everyday buildings with enclosed walls, a realistic scale, and more detailed architectural elements. There are six sets of numbered bags, so we will discuss each of those sections separately. I would also note here that each of those more

Unfortunately there is no cardboard to keep the booklets and sticker sheet flat (though fortunately mine were not crumpled), but never fear, there is a brick separator! There are six minifigures included in this set: two airport workers, a rather debonair pilot, and three passengers. The more

As you can imagine, laying the tiles to form the chessboard is quite tedious and repetitive and is easily the most mundane part of the entire build. Let’s take a closer look at the individual pieces. Both joke characters are the only pawns with alternate faces and all minifigures in this set more

At 3803 pieces including 24 minifigures (some of them exclusive) this is a set that both adult and kids love – but be prepared to set aside some serious time for building. The model is viewable from 360 degrees, so you can play or display at all angles. Some of the minifigures are exclusive more

Measures 15” (39cm) high, 3” (9cm) wide and 3” (9cm) deep. The inside tower is created with some 3 branch cross axles and 1×2 bricks with axle holes. After the base is completed, it’s just basically stacking bricks and plates. In various spots, there are hinge plates that keep the more

The smaller one is 46 pages, and includes instructions for the bus and the train crossing. The bigger one is 63 pages, and includes instructions for the train station itself. This is a super thoughtful arrangement, as it allows more than one person to build the set together at the same time. more
